    Concealed Carry Permit Arrived Today

    Congrats on the new permit. Don't forget to practice and become familiar with your carry piece. Shoot it a lot. Get some pistol handling training if needed.

    Bullet weight & recoil

    "That is what I said! That is why I said think in terms of momentum. Inertia being a measurement of a body's resistance to changes in momentum. So if you think in terms of momentum imparted to a projectile, the projectile with higher momentum will create higher recoil in a given weight...

    Bullet weight & recoil

    Man, my head hurts. Heavier bullet = higher moment of inertia Force required to overcome that moment of inertia will result in more recoil

    Tru-Oil: half way there??

    Yep. Too much in a single coat. Spread it thin. A run sets you back at least two steps. Or even worse if you had stained the original wood you could mess up the even staining while working out a run. Runs are a real time killer when you consider what you have to do to fix it. Heavy coats...

    "Clean magazines Then 5 words: Volquartzen Extractor for Ruger 10/22. " Then one word: OIL Trigger group and bolt assembly.

    What should my next firearm be?

    A rifle next. An accurate bolt action rimfire to start. I'd recommend a CZ 452. Develop some marksmanship on the cheap and maybe some small game hunting too. Then move up to center fire like a .243 Win or something in that range. Easy to shoot, accurate and ammo readily available.

    A real hero

    God bless out war veterans past and present. Let us never forget them and what they have given us. And yes, this is a gun forum but I, for one, am an American first and forum member second.

    I'm about to trade for this, need feedback

    Nice looking rifle. Don't recognize the scope brand so I can't comment on that. Not an ADL with those nice grip and forearm caps. I think it would be a fair trade.

    6MM options - which one?

    My 6 BR cycles fine since I use a single shot adapter. Accurized action with 26" 9 twist Hart varmint taper on H&S thumbhole stock. Not a real expensive build. Just a fun gun. Best so far has been 0.320", 5 shot at 200 yds. Haven't shot any at 100yds in months. Sub 1/2 MOA almost too easy.

    CZ Rifles...Where have they all gone....

    I think local markets are kind of brand loyal most places. I talked to my buddy that works at a local gun shop and he said that CZ's just haven't sold that well. Had a few and sold them all but not quick enough for them to want to re-stock. I have seven of them and a lot of folks ouu and ahh...

    Well I did it. I bought a Garand!! Warning: Pic Heavy

    Awesome find. And a good shooter to boot. Congrats! I use to throw M1's around when I was in ROTC. I was on the drill team at U of Houston and we used them for our drill routines. One of our fancy drills involved throwing M1's with chromed bayonets. Busted a few stocks in practice but not...

    Big Trouble... DPMS LR-308 Jammed .. Stuck .. HELP

    I've seen this happen twice to a buddy's LR 308. He was using his handloaded ammo. After clearing the jam he tried some of mine and it did the same thing. Had to clear the jam again. He then tried with another buddy's handloads that were loaded with factory new and primed Remington casings...

    6MM options - which one?

    I have a custom build in 6 BR and it's a nice shooter. Lots of bullets to choose from. I would recommend a 8 twist if your looking to go long with the rifle.
