    An Insult to All Conceal Carry Permit Holders

    http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/news/opinion/local1/10784583.htm?1c (Emphasis Mine) David Bookstaber's prescription for safe streets ("The state's firearms law hampers self-defense," Jan. 10) was as ridiculous as it was uninformed. In the first place, he made little sense taking our...

    Lookin' for a 9mm Revolver

    I'm looking for a good 9mm revolver. I'd like something between 2 and 4 inches with a frame made of steel, preferably stainless. I don't like lightweight guns. A hidden or shrouded hammer is a plus, but not a requirement. Capacity should be at least 6 rounds. I've seen a bunch on Taurus web...

    Got My Redhawk to Work!

    I've been shooting my .44 Redhawk for a while with the stock 4,000lb spring. I tried using lighter springs from Wolff about a year ago, but I was getting frequent misfires. A friend suggested switching from the Winchester primers I was using to Federal. I tried this out with the 12lb spring and...

    Took a New Shooter,er, Shooting

    I was at my inlaw's house for Thanksgiving and got talking to her Uncle about his hunting trips and guns in general. My wife's 19 year old cousin was listening in. Just before he (the cousin) left he mentioned that he'd like to try shooting some time if it was okay with me. Okay? How's Saturday...

    What if the Left Revolts?

    They won't, but it made me think. We always seem to assume that if a revolution happens it will be because the patriots have had enough and will rise up to take their country back, but what if the lefties revolt instead? What if they've had enough of being denied abortions, environmental...

    Groove in Topstrap Above Forcing Cone

    My Ruger Redhawk has a groove running perpendicular accross the topstop. It's right above the forcing cone. I'm worried that this is being caused by poor timing. Take a look at the picture below, and tell me what you'd think. I'd hate for this to be a problem, because this would make it the...

    .44 Loads with Win. Super-Field

    I use Winchester Super-Field in all of my 9mm loads and now that I'm shooting a lot more .44, it would be nice to use the same powder. Problem: There is no load data available for WSF in a .44. Yipee! I found another powder's load data which is close in burning rate to WSF and started a...

    .44 Mag Load Wanted for 200gr LRN.

    I'm looking through my Lyman reloading book for a .44 Magnum load for some 200gr LRN bullets. Maximum charge velocities are listed around 1,050fps. That's really slow. I have several loads for 300gr bullets that are near 1,400. I start looking through he Loadbook for .44 and I'm finding the same...

    What's a Good Way to Compensate an 870?

    I shot a friends lightweight 12-gauge with a Cutts-like compensator on it, and it kicks substantially less than my 870 which outweights it by 2 pounds. Okay. I'm sold. Now what is a good way to compensate my 870? Should I just pick up a compensated barrel from Remington? That works, but...

    Who Sells Speedloader Holders for .44's

    I have a bunch of speedloaders for my .44 Redhawk and can't seem to find a speedloader holder for them. I'd like something that I can use for IDPA as well as carry. Any suggestions?

    Help Me Find a Rifle Case

    I've got a scoped AR that needs a box. The problem seems to be the height. It's 12" high from pistol grip to the top of the scope. Everything I've looked at online shows an internal height dimension of approximately 13-1/2". A little 3/4"padding on the top and bottom, doesn't seem like a lot...

    Shooting Noise... how do you resolve it?

    Let's face it guys, we participate in a noisy sport. Shooting is obnoxiously loud. If it isn't then why are we wearing these fancy hearing protectors? Most shooting is over 140 decibels with peak levels over 170. Here are some items to compare to: sandblaster: 115 decibels ambulance siren...

    Is the Savage 64f Any Good?

    My .22 rifle died and I'd like to get a magazine-fed autoloader to replace it. Reliability and accuracy are paramount, but I'd also like to keep the cost well under $200. The 10/22 is the classic and has the fun and expensive advantage of having a ton of extras available for it. The Savage...

    Which Airgun to Wound?

    I'm trying to discourage some squirrels and moles that are wandering the property. Mostly, I want them to move on, but not necessarily to the next life. There are deer that fall into this same catagory. Is there a good air rifle that will allow me to accomplish this. Even some of the...

    Which Scope for Precision Rifle?

    I'm going to pick up a precision rifle early next year and am putting the parts together now. The rifle is mostly for the 400-600 yard range and is based on the less-is-more principle. It's small and light and I don't want the scope to detract from that. If I do my part with handloads and...

    Handgun Mount for Safe Door Wanted

    I have seen pictures of a handgun mount that attaches to the inside of a full-sized gun safe. I cannot find anything like it on the Internet. Can anyone point me in the right direction or offer other suggestions?

    What Is a Good WSF load for .44 Special?

    I use Winchester Super-Field for loading in my 9mm's, and I need a decent .44 Special powder. Why not have one for both? Has anyone worked up any .44 loads with this powder? I haven't found any listed. I plan to use the load for a powder with a close burning rate as a start point (8gr under a...
