    PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA! ..... proudly?

    When a company, does a constant cut-and-paste of their incorrect ad-o-copy to multiple products it tends to "insure" you know exactly where it came from without even knowing what the product is.

    Beretta Neos - trigger not resetting

    Just FYI - what you experienced is exactly what the Neos safety recall was about. The screw holding the firing pin housing/sear gets loose and the housing can move. The sear spring then can't provide proper tension. A hard bump or drop can then potentially allow the sear to move enough to...

    Trouble finding CLP in stock in Phoenix. Is this a local thing?

    I didn't see any in two Walmarts near me this last weekend. It has disappeared and reappeared from the shelves before when they switched to and from the Winchester rebranded cans. Just for fun I checked the Sportsman's Warehouse website and didn't even see it listed for sale. They may have...

    Century Arms AK-47 class action lawsuit, bunk though?

    Do a little research on the representing attorney and you will have your answer.

    My piece of crap Norinco

    How is the filler strip attached in your particular magazine? If it isn't welded (and I don't see any spot weld marks) you should be able to transfer the strip, follower, and spring to a standard TT magazine body.

    Defective Winchester Ammo

    You aren't alone. They looked familiar to me too, along with some other things that weren't right. Clue 1: I've seen these before. Clue 2: When was that last time you saw that style packaging on WWB? Clue 3: Photos were taken in 2011. Clues 4 & 5: A very, VERY brief search found them here...

    Yet another B Retta :)

    Just curious, what are those marks? I've seen it on several of your Berettas. At first I thought they might be wear from a particular holster, but these two are so identical they could almost be from a steel stamp.

    What is the lock on an UpLULA for?

    Don't feel bad. I just checked the instructions and the only mention of it is to unlock it before use. So you did the right thing when you threw the instructions away.

    Defective Winchester Ammo

    Are they headstamped WIN or WCC NATO?

    Taurus PT111 G2

    If you are soft in the head and/or have very poor gun safety practices you can engage the manual safety while the trigger is partially pulled. The gun will then fire with the safety on if the trigger is pulled and it may fire if dropped.

    Walmart gun dept. is now boring!

    From The Walmart Guide to Holiday Gun Buying, which seems to be a pointless article assuring investors that Walmart only sells hunting firearms. So were sales slow, or is the company bowing to the will of investors? Preemptively getting out of the 'controversial' guns before another Trinity...

    2nd Gen Glock 17

    Load them up and they will not drop. Original unreinforced mags swell when loaded and will lodge in the magazine well. That was Glock's marketing gimmick, a loaded magazine is unlikely to eject if the magazine release is accidentally pressed but unloaded magazines should. (It's not a bug...

    Top 2015 gun sales, explains the rimfire situation

    I read this article when it was first published. I immediately dismissed it as garbage, probably only posted in an attempt to bolster interest in a couple of stocks. The 'data collection' was completely bogus in its method. Apparently I wasn't the only one to think so, because the article has...

    Why use +P ammo?

    SAAMI standardizes specifications for +P cartridges just as it does for standard pressure cartridges.

    Outdoor Range/Club in Kansas City Area

    Another good unstaffed MDC range is Golden Valley Shooting Park near Clinton, MO. While not officially staffed, it's near the MDC offices for the lake and staff drives by on occasion to make sure everything is on the up and up. It keeps the overtly stupid and unsafe shooters out. There's also...
