Mini-14 580 series brand-new. Let the SHTF! :)

I have a Sightron--amazingly good--zeroed it once and despite checking it every so often It's never gotten out of zero over the years despite being dropped, frozen, wet, etc. I'm really happy with mine. I'm not an expert target shooter or anything, just a deer hunter w/ a Ruger 77 in .308, but...

Well, that seems to solve it. I had to get an extra "regular" forend to go w/ the slug barrel, as the light contour forend doesn't fit around the slug barrel's outside dimensions. SO it sounds like I need the gas cylinder collar to protect the larger forend at any rate. Thanks.

When you install a slug barrel on a light contour (not the regular) 12 ga 11-87, do you install the gas cylinder collar or not? The 11-87 owner's manual doesn't tell you. Tried a search on here and didn't find it. I don't have the instructions that come with the barrel and wasn't able to find...

And BCCL, are you keeping your stock sights? I'm deciding what to do with mine.

Actually Leon, I looked at the pic of your rifle and amalgamated it with Kenno's list of alterations. What a dyslexic I am at times. :) Are you keeping the stock sights?

Hi All-- I thought I should report back here that I made a purchase! I belong to a local gun-rights group, and my little activist commitment is to go around to six of the local gunshops and recruit members, drop of business cards for people to take that show our web site, etc. One of the...

I have an S&W Model 64 loaded with .38 spl Federal Hydra-Shocks in my mini-vault. Got a Surefire flashlight & extra cell phone in there too. I can get to my Remington 870 w/ HD barrel in a hurry if God forbid things go that far. Wife has a 20-ga Remington Spartan coach gun over on her side...

I have a p230 and it's more accurate than I am, has yet to jam (and I'm well past 300 rounds, need to clean it :)), and the double-action trigger pull is really good compared to any of my other guns. That said, I'm not betting on it as my main HD or concealed carry weapon. After I get...

Awhile back I was agonizing over a CZ or a Beretta-- got much good advice and great recommendations for each. The thread is around someplace if you look for it. Then I was shopping around and came across an amazing deal on a Sig P230, liked the way it looked and felt, and just up and bought...

RG .22 with a busted firing pin? :)

Excellent point. Thank you.

Will grips off a Sig Sauer P230 fit a Sig Sauer P232? Many thanks, Jeff

Well, thanks guys. Looking around the board, I like our McDonald thread the best. It's a bit more nuanced than some of the others. Connecticut is a land of convoluted state gun laws, and new ones are brought up in the state assembly every year. Local authorities simply ignore the ones they...
