Just curious and it may just be a lot of talk that I've heard but has anyone ever had any issues with their teeth when shooting large caliber rifles such as .300 Win Mag and up? The common statement I hear is "The recoil was so bad it jarred/loosened my fillings" Any truth to this or...

What hunting,fishing, firearm related books do you have on your shelf or would you recommend as must haves?

Does anyone happen to know if there is any kind of certification to become an arms and armor expert? Possibly classes or a degree that could be obtained? Possibly to gain a job working in the film industry or doing appraisals for individuals, estates, etc?

I've got a Remington 7400 wearing a Nikon Buckmasters 3x9x40 scope. Went to sight it in today with 130 grain Winchester Powerpoints (used these in the past in this gun). Sighted in at 25 yards, after a few shots, had it dead on. Went to 100 yards, was high and right about 2". Made...

Anyone know of a good book or collector's guide for Case XX knives? Specifically looking for information on folding knives from the 1920-1940 period. Thanks, L'man4389

I am trying to locate a few of Elmer Keith's books at a decent price and was wondering has anyone ever tried contacting Petersen Publishing regarding a possible reprint? I for one would be interested in several different ones, and I'm sure quite a few more people would also. Anyone know if...

I'm looking for a couple of good books to read, someone recommend something. Recently read: Legendary Lawmen: Jelly Bryce Few Peter Capstick books Thinking about trying to find a copy of "Hell I was there" by Elmer Keith but I don't care much for a heavy amount of profanity in my reading...

First off I'll admit I don't know much about revolvers but is it possible to purchase a replacement barrel for a S&W 586 and have them install it? I have found a 586 is good shape the only problem is that someone buggered up the barrel on it and tried to shorten it. It isn't square and looks...

Was the Remington 550-1 (semi auto) .22 ever made in a youth or carbine model? I've ran across one that has about a 20" barrel (same length as the magazine tube). The only other ones I have seen in person or online have been with 26 or 27" barrels. Second question The Remington...

First off I will admit that I know close to nothing about AK rifles but I am wanting to pick up one. Who makes a quality AK 47? I'd prefer to find one in .223 vs the 7.62x39.

I've probably asked this question in the past at some point but I'll ask again just to refresh my memory. What do you use to clean stainless steel? I have a Marlin .22 mag that is in need of a serious cleaning. Light rust spots, no pitting from what I can tell. I do plan to polish it with...

Anyone shooting a Para Warthog compact 1911? I haven't shot one yet or even picked one up but they caught my eye. Been looking for a .45 to add to my collection. I read several years ago where there were problems (FTE, etc) with 1911 style guns chambered in .45 with less than a 4" barrel...

Does Walmart still sale firearms? Seems like all the stores closest to me have stopped. Was looking for a low price on a rifle. Would be a miracle if I could find a store selling out. I'm located within driving distance of NC/SC stores if that makes a difference.

I recently came into possession of a 1941 Winchester 67 Boy's rifle. I ordered a new buttplate from Vintage Gun Grips and it will not fit. Even with sanding it down, it will be a slim chance of getting it to fit correctly. If anyone here happens to know of a source for a buttplate or has...

I recently came across a Marlin .22 mag rifle (bolt) that has some speckled red paint marks (probably from shooting spray paint cans) and a little light rust on the stainless portion. What can I use to clean up the synthetic stock to make it look new. What can I use to clean the stainless...

Anyone carry a Colt as their concealed weapon? Been looking for this model for a long time, at a decent price. Anyone happen to know here I could locate a new one or good used. I believe this pistol was produced up until the late 90's. I was told they sold for around $300 back in 1990...
