So I just want to post some pictures just to confirm that it IS RUST and not anti-seize grease or any other substance. My dad and I have worked with metals enough to know this. Plus, the specks are increasing in count by the day. So I guess now I'm gonna call Glock up and see what's up...

Thanks for all of the great responses guys, Thought I'd post some more pictures I just took today. I have't cleaned it yet, and I'm just gonna wait and see if it is just me or a finishing problem before I do anything with it. But just as some of you noticed, the slide stop does not appear to...

Hey guys, just got back from the range and broke in my new Glock 17. When I got home, I just quickly glanced at the slide and saw little specs of rust. at first I didn't know if I was seeing things because I was under the impression that 2 weeks or less of handling wouldn't bring the rust out...

Hey guys, so I just got a Glock a week ago and I've heard to use rubbing alcohol or denatured alcohol up in the slide and by the striker. Can this possibly be harmful for the finish or any part of the gun? Brendan

Hey guys so I just got my first Glock about a week ago and so far I love this thing. However I went outside to test if it cycled smoothly. So I loaded up the magazine with 3 rounds and racked the slide. But when it chambered the round, it was anything but smooth. It was like hitting a tiny...

Hey all, I was just sitting here and thinking. I then realized that I was the only pro gun person in my family :banghead: Unfortunately, the rest of my family (besides my dad and I) are super crazed liberals and think all guns are good for are killing. I recently got into an argument with my...

Thanks Dan, I'll definitely be going with the 9mm. I was not trying to be a caliber snob, but the only reason I said that is because my uncle died trying to defend himself with a 9mm, putting 1 round in center mass, but it unfortunately didn't stop the guy.

Hey all, well I'm in a pickle here. Let me just start out by saying that I'm new to the world of pistol competitions, and I wanted to get started. My pistol of choice would definitely be a Glock (I know some hate it, some love it, but this is my decision). Now, the thing I've been pondering...

Over here in Ohio they've always been behind a counter, except of course for the used guns which you are still able to handle without asking.

I used Rustoleum for my rifle stock. It is pretty good at protection, and I didn't put a clear coat on and it has held up to some banging around in transport to and from the range and the woods from hunting. It was a synthetic stock, but I'm sure it would work just fine for a wood stock, as...

Here's my 30-06 at less than 100 rounds... as you shoot more guns, you'll notice that some foul faster than others (also depends on the ammo used).

Hey all, I just completed a gun cabinet with my dad about a week ago. Where I live, it gets very humid in the summer, and in the house. It is simply too much for my guns to handle and they rust very quickly, so I constantly have to oil them up. What I was wondering: Have any of you used or...

Looks like you've got some copper fouling there. I had heavy copper fouling in my 30-06 recently, boy it's not fun. Definitely get some copper solvent for that. I clean for copper about once every 2 years (maybe that's even too much). But it's something that happens on most firearms if you...

mmitch, I have a heavy lock installed on the left door on the top, and it is made with polycarbonate windows. Plus I live in a very secluded town where not much action goes on, but that's no reason to let your guard down.

Thanks for all of the compliments :D Yes we actually just finished up the piece to hold the guns in place so they won't fall. But to those who have asked, I put a stain on the sassafras and then put a coat on Tung oil on it, and finished it off with two coats of polyurethane. Unfortunately it...
