    Dry firing used guns at gun shows/auctions,,,

    Agree with the author totally. The gun show dealer is the twin of a car salesman who only permits test drives in the parking lot.:banghead:

    Virginia law changed BEWARE

    Most of those states that do allow felons to regain certain rights do not do so as matter of course. They require the felon to petition the court of record in a manner similar to a motion to expunge. I see the media attention and the same degree of interest in rights restoration here and...

    Ruger Blackhawk Single SIx

    I'd been reading the Ruger forums; found some conversations about the issue. Much chaff and little wheat. That resulted in me asking here. Figured there may be some Ruger single six devotee wandering around the board. Thanks for your reply Jim.

    BSquare Rail Hestitency

    Yeah, mine doesn't end me over the moon either. It came on my L1A1 in lieu of the regular dustcover. Have never used an optic on it b/c I like the irons on it. Suppose I will leave it where it's at and force myself to purchase a proper one.

    Ruger Blackhawk Single SIx

    While I've priced them on the net I was wondering if anyone knows if there's a niche market and who may be interested in a mid-60's vintage Single Six .22 pistol with both long rifle and .22 magnum cylinders with felt bag to hold extra cylinder when not in use. Pistol is immaculate and has been...

    Muscle memory will be your default under stress. if you carry ur primary on your strongside hip then first choice for the B/U could be outside of strongside leg or inside of weakside leg. Same applies for mainly the trigger of the B/U since you're not going to be reloading it the action not...

    BSquare Rail Hestitency

    I have an old BSquare picatinny rail (replaces an FAL dustcover). I've never used it but now have the desire to use it to allow an optic to be used. It looks a sketchy - but it was free. Wondering if anyone has had any positive experience with one on a 7.62x51 or similar largish caliber. My...

    Convicted felon at a gun show?

    I didn't read each of the many replies here, just skimmed them so I may have missed this reply; "Areas of immediate access." If a person can reach it the argument can be made that they are in possession of it. A felon standing over a table of unsecured handguns could well be determined to be...

    STG58 Piston Concern from a new member

    I'll be the guy who shamelessly asks for opinions in his very first post without contributing anything, I apologize for that. I've had both my FNFAL platform rifles for years with outstanding service. Today while doing a little scheduled inspection I noticed the end of the gas piston on my...
