    Browning 1910/71

    That's a neat combo! I've only ever seen them in .380. Thanks for sharing. 👍

    Used Revolvers from S&W

    Its pretty difficult to wear out or break a 586. They are quite a bit rarer than the stainless M686. Clean examples here locally are $900-1200 depending on barrel length. They are fantastic guns. I would take a nice 586 over a new production 686 any day and twice on Sunday. Parts and service are...

    Im going to grab another SKS today.

    I'd rate the Norincos at least as good as a Russian in like condition, and I'd take a Chicom over the Yugo simply because the Yugos are saddled with troublesome gas valves for the grenade launcher. Even the cheapest commercial Norincos with stamped bits and pinned barrels are still excellent...

    What will happen if ?

    Gun and ammo sales tanked when he won in 2016, prices slumped shortly afterwards. The real question isn't who wins, it's will the loser accept the result or go scorched Earth and light off CW2. All it would take is a few states refusing to send electors. Not to mention the Leftist riots that...

    Gun Identification...inherited long guns from family. Please let me know your valued opinions.

    Aint no '03, its a Mauser short rifle, probably S.American. There may be a crest on the receiver just ahead of the bolt that will aid ID. #11 is likely a Stevens. The buttstock is a giveaway.

    Im going to grab another SKS today.

    Wish Id kept my "Para," was just as reliable as the full size guns. It did have a noticeably sharper recoil impulse, though- more than could be accounted for by a couple ounces of missing steel barrel. Ive often wondered if they had to open up the gas port a tiny bit to account for the shorter...

    Interwar German Combination Gun - Trying to determine what I've got..

    No idea on collector value, but gorgeous to me!

    Walther PP vs Makarov PM vs… Everything Else

    Ive had a number of PP and PPKs. None were what I would call reliable, comfortable, or accurate. Never had a Mak. In the everything else kinda PP-ish catagory, I rate the Colt 1903/08 above the PP in shootability, though still not reliable enough to confidently carry. The Mauser HsC (at least...

    Taurus 445 44spl

    I had the stainless version in the late '90s. Looked good, carried nice and went bang, but for some strange reason, mine was incredibly inaccurate. Ammo was scarce and $$$ even back then, so I sold it downriver without regrets. I do kinda miss my Titanium 7-shot Taurus .357 snubby, though even...

    Nice group for 20yds with a compact .40. 👍

    Deawoo DP51.

    Neato. If I remember correctly, mine was actually imported by Kimber, of all things.

    Deawoo DP51.

    I had the compact model back in the early oughts. Lionheart arms was still importing and selling a slightly updated version a few years ago. No idea what their status is now. I assume you've discovered the unique action wherein you can push the hammer forward from the cocked position, then...

    What did you shoot today?

    I love my Rascal, and have given several as gifts, to both kids and adults and everyone loves them. There is a whole cottage industry for preppers turning them into last ditch/buried/takedown survival rifles too. 😁 Me and a bud from work did a little plinking after work. We shot my freshly...

    What did you shoot today?

    Some folks complain about the accuracy using them in 1/7-1/9 bores, but mine has always been acceptable out to 50YDs. Somebody is making a heavy bullet .22LR specifically for use in .223 barrels. Id like to try it for comparison it, but cant complain even with 40gr. fodder.

    Mossberg lever action .30-30: Why discontinued?

    Well....Savage had a little tug at the beginning and the end, but otherwise pretty much cycles itself. All the other leverguns feel like a transmission shifting by comparison.😁 ;)

    Mossberg lever action .30-30: Why discontinued?

    This is the first I'm hearing about it even existing, so obviously can't remember seeing one in the flesh. Henry is everywhere- radio, internet, magazines........add poor marketing by Mossberg to the list, lol.

    They Don't Call it a Masterpiece for No Reason...

    I dunno, I would have preferred something less martial like "Police Masterpiece" or "Duty Masterpiece" since the M15 was never going to see combat, per se, aside from USAF examples and even then only in extremis. Kinda like the Colt "Army Special" which never won an Army contract though the...

    Most rust resistant handgun?

    Glock 44 maybe? Mostly polymer slide, very little exposed steel. Of course, I've seen way too many pics of them cracked too, so not what I'd carry- assuming I wanted to carry a .22, of course. HiPoints are crackle-coated zinc on top of polymer and actually seem pretty resilient. For that...

    Springfield Armory's SA16-A2

    I guess the question is, would I want to be issued a 20" with A2 irons or a 14.5" M4 with an ACOG? For me, personally, I'd take the full-size. But then, I'm unlikely to ever have to squeeze into an APC or a chopper with a rifle and full kit. For the average mechanised trooper, the M4 with...
