    You guys have to read this

    That is one of the best quotes Ive read in a long time. Thanks for sharing it. Im afraid that my beloved Washington State is one mass shooting away from becoming another ban state.

    This is why you always have enough on hand.

    The shortage has been in full swing here since the end of December. Most any ammo that is available is $1 per round whether its center fire rifle or pistol. I went in to my local Wally World last week just to see what they had on the shelves. I had been told that shipments come in between 8...

    Timney Triggers

    I have Timney's in my 10/22 and my AR. They are wonderful! Huge improvement over the factory triggers. The Timney is even better than my accutrigger set to 3 lbs. Buy with confidence. You will be happy. Here is the Skeletonized Timney in my AR

    Couple New Rifles

    That scout is awesome. I am also in the market for a good mag fed bolt 308. What optic are you going to use? Quick release mounts would be great as you could quickly get to your iron sights if needed :) Nice rifle choices. That Colt is now ready to rock.

    AR-15 Photos

    Here's my wonderful black rifle. Doublestar guts with magpul, spikes, and eotech refinements. Timney skeletonized 3 lb single stage trigger. The trigger pull is almost identical with both weapons. If I were to go to battle, this is the pair I would take.

    45 cal plated .451

    I also like berrys plated but I prefer rainier plated bullets. Made in WA state and are usually cheaper vs berrys. +1 Rocky Mtn Reloading.

    Favorite Ruger .22lr SemiAuto

    I have a good selection of different 22lr pistols including a sig p220 SAO, 2 beretta bobcats, a ruger bearcat revolver, and a ruger 22/45 mkIII. The 22/45 is my favorite by far. Its the most reliable of the bunch, most accurate, most fun to shoot. Dis assembly is bothersome but can be...

    Unburnt accurate powders in my pistols

    Thanks guys, that makes sense. I will try turning up the heat. I usually load at the lower power range for target shooting.

    Unburnt accurate powders in my pistols

    Ive been using accurate #2 and #7 powders to work up loads in different calibers. Ive noticed that there is quite a bit of what looks like unburnt powder left over in the chambers of my autoloaders. they look like pieces of sand. Sometimes it gets so bad that rounds wont cycle. Im using cci...

    Bushmaster to reopen Windham facility

    That's great news for those folks who will get rehired, and for Maine. The more quality products that are actually manufactured in the US, THE BETTER. I also hope Dick Dyke runs an environmentally friendly operation. Clean manufacturing is good for the locals. Ive yet to buy any bushmaster...

    volquartsen 10/22 upgrades- first range trip!

    I recently added a volquartsen extractor, extended mag release, and auto bolt release to my stock 10/22. I also replaced an NC Star red dot with my Eotech XPS2. I left my 10/22 stock for a long time. After only swapping optics for a while I realized these internal upgrades were pretty cheap...

    Anyone else like Commander sized 1911s?

    They don't let their differences effect their relationship. After owning many 1911's the commander has become my favorite.

    Which AR to buy?

    Double Star Someone mentioned double star earlier as being rock solid right out of the box. Its true! There are MANY folks that would agree that its the best bang for your buck. $669 gets you exactly what you are looking for. Even better is that the best website in the country sells it...
