    Can anyone identify this 12ga bolt action shotgun bolt?

    Looks a lot like the bolt from my Mossberg 20 gauge.

    Slide lubes Using a chainsaw lube?

    I've tried Hornady gun cleaner/ dry lube with good success as well as grease and many different oils. Really don't see any difference between them.

    Going to try a striker fired again...help

    Of your choices I've only shot the Fns, I wasn't a big fan of it. My other striker fired pistols are better in my opinion.

    Help problem with SP101

    I had the same exact problem with a SP101 after sending it in to Ruger for repair for another problem. It never had happened before. I called Ruger and they said to send it in which I did. They called me a week later and said the gun wasn't repairable??????? They did treat me well and replaced...

    Feral Chigger attacks in Texas

    My wife doesn't get chiggars, They all come to me. Best I've found is applying Avon Skin So Soft bug guard to my legs in the morning and then I spray my boots and pants with a cheap equine fly spray. No more chiggars and any tics may stick but die before embedding.

    Just have to ask this penetration question

    I originally posted this thread in the handgun section but it got moved into the hunting forum. I am questioning penetration with handgun bullets for animals like bears, hogs. Things one would consider tough skinned, heavy boned or dangerous that one would either be hunting with a handgun or...

    Just have to ask this penetration question

    Over the years of following forums I've noticed that almost everyone insist on hard cast bullets for penetration on tough/dangerous game. Since FMJ bullets don't expand or even most plated bullets why aren't they just as good of an option?

    "40 is a dead caliber"

    The .40 will be the top dog again in 10-20 years when some trainer needs something to talk about to make his speel different from all the other trainers so he can get more air time/money.

    Ruger SP101 grips

    Another fan of Trausch for magnum loads. Not the best for carry though as my shirts cling to the rubber instead of sliding over it.

    Ruger LCP frame cracked

    I had the same crack form on a Kel-Tec P3AT. Called KT and they volunteered a new "grip" as they called it. Said I could choose any color I wanted. I do most of my own work so I didn't even ask about sending it in. It was a simple repair for me and I had the new part in a jiffy.

    Dry Lube

    What didn't you like about the Liquid Wrench? I didn't feel that the lube quality was nearly as good, it was harder to apply and the spray can was messed up and I always got more on me than anywhere else. I finished the can on non-important projects and was glad when it was gone.

    Dry Lube

    I tried the liquid wrench and didn't like it at all. IMHO the Hornady One Shot Cleaner and Dry Lube is a much better product. I've been using it for years now. Also, nothing and I mean nothing slicks up a sticky door lock cylinder better.

    Let the Caliber wars begin!!

    With all the talk about first shot accuracy and follow-up shot speeds, I feel first shot accuracy is the same regardless of caliber and follow up speed is variable by the shooter. Has anyone here tested how much longer it takes to make three accurate shots with a 45 caliber or 40 caliber as...
