P228 Sig still makes the 228 for the Gub'ment as the M11. They're completely German made guns that still get routed through Exeter as before. Some folks feel it's the best classic series pistol Sig has ever made. I believe it's one of the best pistols anyone has ever made. There's something...

Subsonics... The same day I bought the brick of CB's, I also purchased a brick of CCI 40 gr. hollow point subsonic rounds. With an advertised velocity of 1050 FPS, they are not far below the sound barrier, but out of the 100 rounds I tried there wasn't one "blam". In fact, I found them to be...

Thanks for the replies, I have a bunch of the Aguila offerings and use them mainly in my .22 Revolver as I've always been afraid they won't make it out of the 24" Marlin barrel. Dirty as hell too, but they do work as intended, just too low powered for my rifle shooting needs. The CCI CB...

I've used CCI CB long ammo for many years in my Marlin levers. It's never been perfect quality wise, but decent enough for very quiet and fun target shooting. However, I just bought a brick last week (new style packaging) and it's just terrible. Everything from "BLAM" to "poof... thud"...

Manual of Arms... With respect to the post WW2 rifle trials, I believe the US military also weighed the Manual of Arms heavily in their selection criteria. FAL = left side cocking handle, pistol grip, bolt catch down low, rubber butt plate, etc. There's nothing quite like the sound of a...

Why..... I'd give 'em m16's.... for obvious reasons.:rolleyes:

Benson, as it turns out, has been very good for New Hampshire so far, using his veto pen on the latest bloated state budget. His supporting gun rights and the Free State Project has been icing on the cake. New Hampshire is under siege from Massachusetts transplants who have screwed their own...

Eagle...? 4v50 Gary, Are you sure that was an Eagle on the "French" mini butt plate and not a Chicken? Oh well, they probably sold them all to Iraq anyway....
