    Large Texas hog

    Shot this one this past weekend. Used a Rem 700 in .270 Win and 150gr Core-lokts.

    Romney and guns?

    Has he converted/flip flopped to favor 2A causes or is he still for the assault weapons ban and other silliness?

    Core-lokt celebrating 72 years

    I ran across an online version of Boy's Life magazine yesterday while bored at work and it had an ad from Remington in it. The ad said The Core-lokt bullet was introduced in 1939. Still works like a champ!

    AR10 or BLR?

    Which would be easiest to take down/clean and for deer and hog hunting in Texas? I realize they are completely different designs. I've got a Rem 700 for hunting right now along with a Finn M39, No. 4 Mk. 1.*, and a K31. I'm gonna scope the K31 so I will be able to hunt with that as well...

    I got my C&R license! I got my C&R license!

    Well, it was issued today. I don't actually have it. It'll be 6 - 8 days before I receive it in the mail. I sent the app to them on Jun 16th. They say they received it on Jun 24th, so the total time it took to get it was about 2 months. I'm a first time applicant and a resident alien so it...

    I've joined the 3rd Gen S&W cult, kinda

    Just got back from the range from firing my police trade in 5903 from Bud's guns that I got this week. Fired about a box each of Blazer aluminium, Monarch steel cased Russian stuff, and Federal $10 a box FMJ from Wally World. It's been a while since I've had a long range session with pistols...

    How much weight to give a rail?

    I'm looking to get a 9mm auto as a range/nightstand gun to supplement or supplant my KelTec P11. I'm looking at various 3 gen S&W police trade ins or SW99 or a CZ P01. How much weight should I place on the presence or absence of a light rail in my decision making? Only the SW99 or P01 have a...

    TMI in a Gunbroker ad

    Way too much information, but probably not a bad price if the condition is as stated: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=168757742

    Fair price for S&W 3913

    A local pawn shop has a 3913 for sale. It has some light scratches and one of the rear site dots is no longer white, but that's not a big issue for me. They'll only go as low as $450 on it right now. That seems high but in looking on GunsAmerica and GunBroker, it isn't out of the ballpark high...

    Barreled Mauser action - what else do I need to make a complete rifle

    I see various barreled Mauser actions available on the internets. Obviously a stock is needed to complete a weapon. Anything else? I think it'd be cool to build a Mauser sporter on a barreled action and a nice synthetic or laminate stock. It wouldn't be cost effective compared to simply...

    New Rem 700 safety question

    Am I supposed to only be able to put the fire selector on safe when the firing pin has been cocked (or the bolt removed)? I can understand one wouldn't need to put the safety on if the gun hasn't been cocked but still... The wife bought me a 700 CDL in .270 with the non externally adjustable...

    Boresnake hard to pull through .22 Henry

    I have a .22lr Henry lever action that my mother in law gave me for Christmas. I bought a boresnake to run through it but man, it seems real hard to do. Harder than it should and so I haven't used it. I can probably physically do it I'm big and strong but I don't want it to break and get stuck...
