    Lets talk about ARs

    Obviously there are always a lot of threads on ARs on this board. They tend to break down into the following catagoties. What should I buy? What should I build? Did I do good buying or building X? Is brand X superior to brand Z and why? Sadly they often deteriorate into arguments...

    New Coyote AR.

    Just thought I would share. Still looking for Glass. Here is my newest build. I wish I could take the credit for it but Joe Barnsfather at Superior Firearms did all the work and took the photos. I just took him the upper and lower and asked him to do magic. Spikes factory FDE upper and...

    Suggest to me a Holster.

    I picked up a Kahm CW9 today for summer concealment. Love the gun, but I need a good holster for IWB carry. I was thinking of something by Don Hume but am open to other options as well.

    Locked out of Safe!

    Maybe this is just more of a rant but I am a bit bothered by this situation. I have an Oxbow safe and right now I can't get into it. Last night I put up a couple guns I had out to work on. Today I went to put away an AR I left out and grab my G27. Imagine my surprise when I was unable to get...

    Ruger GP100 Value?

    Can anyone give me a general idea of the value of a Stainless Ruger GP100 with a 3 inch barrel in good condition? I grabbed one today at my LGS and put it on layaway but I want to make sure I am not paying to much.

    How should I handle this?

    There is a local dealer who has done some work on my guns in the past. We have always had a good relationship but now there is a problem. I asked him to cut 5 Uzi Mags for use in an AR15. This was back in late May. He finally got them done this last week and I went by to get them on...

    Sig P245

    I picked one of these up today for 379.00. Sadly I don't know much about them. I have owned a few Sigs and stupidly sold my 220 a while back. Is this just a 220 with a short grip? I noticed they have been discontinued and replaced by some 220 variants. What is the reason for this?

    Refinish Sig P6 or no?

    I picked up a P6 a month or 2 ago for 279. Overall it is in really good shape. The frame is in perfect shape but the slide has a lot of holster wear. I am trying to decide if I should have it parked or Duracoated, or if I should just leave it lie it is. These aren't really collectors items...

    It followed me home, can I keep it?

    I have ben drooling over the new Colt 6940 for a while and I managed to pick one up the other day. This is one hell of a weapon. I like having the built in rail instead of having to drop the money and time on a DD or Troy rail. The Rail is a bit wider than I would like. It is 2.4 inches...

    Should I start reloading?

    I have been considering buying a Dillon 650 Press. I shoot mostly 9mm and 5.56 with a bit of 40 and 45 thrown in there. I already have a set of 45 Dies laying around here somewhere that I was given for some reason or another. Given current and projected market conditions, will reloading...

    Colt Trooper .357 Value

    my Local shop has a 4 inch Stainless Colt Trooper in .357 mag. Here is the rub. It is an apparent Suicide gun. As you know using a firearm for suicide leads to bad things for the Gun as well as the person. The outside is badly pitted It is the worse on the barrel with only minor pitting...

    A very basic Question

    Are dies specific to a manufacturer? If I have a set of Lee Dies will they work in an RCBS or Dillon Press? I have been looking at a reloading press and strangely enough I found a set of .308 and .45 Dies that are for an old Lee I think. Thanks for the help guys.

    So tell me about the .243

    I will tell you that I know nothing about this round, however I am in need of a good scoped bolt rifle for General use. I found a Used Stainless Ruger 77 chambered in this for 450 and it seemed like a nice rifle. Honestly the gun will probably see more range use than anything but it may be...

    Flash hider question

    What, if any impact do flash suppressors have on accuracy? I am working on a Flattop AR build but would like to have a FS on it. Will this have any noticeable impact on accuracy at 300 Yards or so over a normal barrel?

    SBR or Carbine a 9mm Choice.

    So I could not bring myself to buy the Colt 9mm I had been looking at. It is an old one and belongs with someone who will appreciate it the way it is, not someone who is going to change just about everything on it. Instead I got the last RRA 9MM pistol they had left. It is nice but frankly I...

    M14s

    I didn't want to hijack the M1A thread going on so I figured I would start my own. Can you still get New Polytech M14, or any other M14 besides the SA M1As? I am just looking for a shooter and don't need something like the M1A.

    Umm Wow.. Just wow. O_o

    I can't think of a better title for this thread. Now I know were were all noobs at one time or another when it comes to firearms but this took it to a whole new level. I was hanging out for a few minutes at one of the local shops today when a guy came in and started asking questions. Some...

    Century CETMEs?

    What is the story here? Good, bad, ugly? I know that some Centuries are great while others are iffy, but I have only messed with the AKs so I am a bit in the dark here? Also what is a good price on them if they are decent?

    My newest refinished gun

    I just got my Taurus PT1911 back from Ron Kemp and as always he did a wonderful job. The frame has a bit more green in it than you can see in the photo but it is still a pretty striking color. Originally I had the whole gun done in this color with just the black accents. However it was...

    Colt 9MM Carbine

    Alright. I took my malfunctioning M1 Carbine back to the Gun shop. 0 Problems returning the gun. And they gave me full credit back in it. I started to pick up another M1 Carbine but spotted a used 9mm Colt. I have been wanting a 9mm AR for a while and while I am not a big Colt AR fan I...
