    Anyone want muzzle velocity?

    heh heh, i wonder what the felt recoil on that thing is like.... edit: well, i just read this near the bottom of the article: "The plates are small - only 30 mm by 15 mm in cross-section, and 850 microns thick." i'm guessing that's a really really light weight plate. plus electro...

    Optimal Trap Barrel

    ooh - i get to get in on some advice early on! :) i believe that the reason people prefer longer barrels for trap is that it "smooths out" your swing. having a bit more weight spread out in front makes it harder to snap the front of the barrel to the clay. in trap, all the clays are...

    storm disassembly

    hello, i could use some tips/advice. i got a new beretta storm and tried to give it an initial cleaning before taking it to a range. i got the push pin out and the upper assembly slid forth maybe an inch. after that i can't seem to get it to slide all the way out like the manual shows...

    Opinion- Beretta Neos .22LR

    i really enjoy mine. beretta has alot of pieces parts you can adjust on it - the different barrel lengths that you mentioned, colored grip panels, colored slides, and i'm probably forgetting some others. check out berretausa.com. it's really easy to field strip and clean. almost glock...

    Does Wildalaska Get Royalties?: Ruger® Super Redhawk® Alaskan™

    ahh...i can literally feel all my rationalization oozing away like a post-nasal drip. just the sheer lunacy of it is so tempting. it's a safe way of satisfying the "look ma, no hands" itch. iwantoneiwantoneiwantone!! :D

    My first Ruger!

    oh.my.goodness. the muzzle blast and recoil on my 7.5" super redhawk in .454 casull is impressive. 2.5"?? sheesh - at close range, even if you miss the muzzle blast should set it on fire :p darn it...now i'm starting to want to shoot both that gun and the s&w 500 in the 4" barrel...

    What the Election Taught Me- Eyes Opened

    haha! that's sheer genius for dealing with upset liberals who always eagerly talk about how bad the government will be in the next couple of years. the very concept of liberals needing the 2nd Amendment...talk about exploding their bubble of how the world works!
