Been gone for awhile Smith & Wesson 39-2 from 1975

In New Jersey each handgun transfer to a non FFL requires a permit to purchase that now takes about 30 days from the time of the application. Therefore, many handguns sit at NJ FFLs waiting for the NJ permit to purchase to come through. And then, before taking the handgun home the purchaser...

I too am curious about the shortcomings of the 500 compared to the 590. To me, the heavier barrel of the 590 makes it less attractive and the plastic trigger guard of the 500 is a non-issue. The plastic safety of the 500 is also a non-issue to me, especially since I do not intend to use it with...

I believe that for years the consensus would have been that the Remington 870 Wingmaster with an 18.5" or 20" barrel set the standard for a 12 Ga. defensive pump shotgun. But Remington has been having its troubles of late. Recently I got a Mossberg 500 with an 18.5" barrel and a 5 shot...

I am fine with formal training. With every gun purchase the buyer acknowledges to the seller: 1) I understand that all guns are loaded unless I have personally cleared the chamber and magazine. 2). I will not point any gun at something I am not willing to destroy. 3) I will always be aware...

Large capacity magazines is the last issue we want the Supreme Court to hear at this time. Whether you like it or not, reasonable minds can differ over whether the Constitution protects 30 round magazines, and a bad ruling on this issue by the Supreme Court would have devastating ramifications...

Bushmaster XM15-E2S with 1000's of rounds down the tube. Here is what it has and why: 1) First and most important -- Everything must be New Jersey compliant, with only one evil feature. It has a pistol grip, therefore no folding stock, bayonet lug, flash hider, threaded barrel etc.. No...

I have wondered for sometime why I got this DPMS in .243: Two reasons why so few out there: 1) It's too big and heavy compared to a 5.56 and the ammo is much more expensive. 2) If you want a big heavy semi-auto rifle, get one in .308, just like almost everyone else. On the other hand...

Five Rounds at 100 Yards (Computer generated blue circle is 0.77") Platform is an Armalite with a .223 Wylde bull barrel. The good results are attributable to the following: a) .223 Wylde barrel used by Armalite is inherently accurate b) I tried various .223 and 5.56 factory ammo to find the...

Stay away from guns more than a hundred years old This .44 Special is from 1916 It's way low at 4 yards And it barely stays on the target at 14 yards

Ditto on the glass clarity and low light performance. There is, however, noticeable parallax at 100 yards.
