So. After hours and hours of reading reviews, YouTube, and responses here, I ordered a Holosun 510c Green. From Holosun: "The HS510C is an open reflex optical sight designed for rifle and carbine applications. Features include Holosun’s Super LED with up to 50k hours battery life, Multi-Reticle...

I agree with you. I am just very ignorant about dot scopes. The concept makes sense to me, I don't know which of the three types will work better for me, and I wouldn't mind getting it right without buying 5 dot sights figuring it out.

I have a 590 close at hand while in bed. My first choice for 50 feet and under encounters. This carbine I'm putting together is for when I feel I need to venture outside. I have 4.5 acres. Police / Sheriff's dept. pick and choose what property crimes they respond to, and local courts have...

I have a 189 series Mini 30. Gun is heading to the gunsmith for trigger tuning, upgraded springs, and barrel strut. I live on the edge of civilization, pavement and streetlights, but a quarter mile from nearest neighbors. I have a good mix of firearms, but since I was burglarized a year ago, I...

My approach would be a little different from the OP's, and echos some of what has been suggested. A .22 Rimfire, suitable for Appleseed participation. Appleseed will teach you to shoot. Once you have that skill and exposure to other shooters, rifle selection will come to you intuitively.

Doesn't the DD214 cover all requirements with CMP?

Jolly Rogers All it takes is an unscheduled car wreck on the beltway to find yourself on a detour taking you into places that could have you facing felony charges. More than one person has crossed Chain Bridge not aware that no mans land lie on the other side.

IMHO. Semi auto: The Model 41 S&W Revolver: The Model 17 K22 S&W ...and I'm not really a dyed in the wool S&W guy....

Damn. Do you have a list of topics that are acceptable? BTW. Is seeking out newcomers and crapping in their threads a Frat House kind of thing, or do you do this just for your own amusement?

Mnrivrat seems to me to have the best suggestion. Patience and persistence may pay off or may not. You can continue trying to assign blame, or focus on finding some resolve. Please keep us informed if you pursue some resolve. If a claim was paid by an insurance company, the firearm would be the...

http://www.gunpartscorp.com/catalog/Products.aspx?catid=4522 Some things available at Numrich. Savage Model 5 A & B, Stevens Model 66C, and Springfeild 86C share many of the same parts. I will try to find more info when I get home. I used to have a mental illness that manifested itself in the...

As mentioned, sling mounts, a USGI cotton sling and if at all possible, a set of Tech Sights. http://www.tech-sights.com/ Here is a method of attaching a sling to the Model 60: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWglhSa81PY Web sling vendors...
