Fella's; I know that the GSG and the SIG 1911-22's are built by German Sport Guns (GSG) and are in essence the same gun. But, it's my understanding that there are detail differences between the two. What I'm trying to do here is get a good idea of just what those differences are. I've been...

Swampman; My condolences. I now understand the priority for a good recoil pad. 900F

Swampman; I'll be the first to admit that the recoil pad on a T3 is not impressive. However, the Swede is not a shoulder-pounder either. I'm gonna suggest shooting the rig first before going to the expense of putting an accessory recoil pad on it. I've got a steel buttplate on my Swede &...

Peterk1234; I'm going to presume that both you and your wife are right handed and the right eye is the dominant eye, but if you don't know what the dominant eye is, find out. Usually the dominant eye should be the eye you aim with, which may dictate a left handed shooting position. Very few...

Five out of four Hornady users think Dillion is overrated. :-) 900F

Glock Doctor; The video is "Security On Sale", the elapsed time is one minute & 42 seconds, and they wasted some time doing it. There's also a difference between true safes and RSC's, if you use search on this very site, you too can find out the difference. No, you don't have to put the unit...

Fella's; Hmmm, apparently Glock Doc knows something I don't, and I'm a retired professional locksmith. I've also got an electronic lock on my safe. And, I'm not worried about it, solar flares or EMP's not withstanding. But, I'm just a rural guy out in the middle of nowhere. But, I did do a...

CptnAwesome; I have several Tikka's, two T-3's. Of those two, one is a full custom gun based on a Tikka action that's in 6.5 X 55 mm Swedish Mauser & the other is a blue/syn .30-06. Both of the T-3's are very nicely accurate. And if you really want to fall in love, get yours in Swede instead...

ChuckJr; I purchased my Remington 5mm magnum when they were new. Loved the gun, but then the so-and-so's quit making the ammo just a few years later. I'd bought quite a bit of ammo in the year or so after I bought the gun, so it was about ten years down the road when I went to get some more...

Brewer12345; I'll also suggest a Tikka T3 or T3x, they can be found used. That should easily allow you to get a good scope & mounts for under your budget figure. I have several Tikka's, the actions are smooth, & all are very nicely accurate, including the .30-06. The synthetic stocked...

Salt&battery; Please don't make your reply look like it's inclusive of your quoting me. 900F

Fella's; It's funny here in central Montana, many of the normal retailers have .22 rimfire regardless of the variety. However, Wally-World just opened a second store in Great Falls, the super-sized one, no .22 at either location. I suspect that for some reason that Wal-Mart has concluded that...

OC-Trainer; Speaking of those high-per-barrel oil prices, the influx of labor that comes with it, and the first winter they experience, explains why moving companies like Wyoming. When you're in Wyoming, you're in the high country, -50 f is not at all unusual in the winter, and I've worked in...

Fella's; Yeah, there are a lot of cottage industries that concern themselves with wolves. The Tee-shirts I see have the silhouette of a wolf in the crosshairs & the three S's underneath. The statement that wolves do more good to the environment than harm? Purely Sierra Club I think...

Fella's; I recently completed the state of Montana's wolf survey. It mostly concerned itself with the attitude of landowner's regarding wolves. I do so hope I made my attitude clear that essentially Canada can have as many wolves as they wish, but they should be extinct in Montana. 900F
