I’ve seen them on a pretty good sale locally. For those of you that already own one, are you still happy with your purchase? Any long-term issues? I’m not a giant fan of unloading a SA 22 but I can put up with it for a few rounds of plinking if the gun is otherwise good.

I need a riser for my scope on a flat top AR. I bought one from B-Square years ago but they seem to be discontinued now and all I can find are garbage Chinese brands like UTG or Monstrum. Any leads on where to get a decent quality mount that won’t snap off the first time I bump it against a tree...

I know the ban has been ruled against in at least one Federal Circuit, maybe more. Does that have any practical significance, especially for people who live in those circuits?

Is there any reason a set of 32 H&R magnum carbide dies couldn't be adjusted to load 327 Federal?

Now that I'm retired and only wear dress clothes for funerals I've pretty much abandoned pocket carry. My last carry revolver was Smith & Wesson 340PD, which is the concealed hammer scandium J frame 357 magnum. It has the minor finish wear you would expect of a pocket gun but has hardly been...

A local shop has them for $399 so with the current $150 rebate that would bring the price to $249. I have been looking for a decent pocket 22 for a while now but I’m not sure anything is attractive about it except the price. It has terrible sights and a horrible trigger pull, or at least the one...

My quest continues for a pocket 22LR I like and can shoot well. A shop I visited today had a snubby 9&2 for $359. The action and lockup felt good but I hesitate to spend the money without hearing from someone who owns one. Is the 9&2 worth buying?

I was repeatedly cautioned in numerous fora (including here) that the pistol brace amnesty registration might be an ATF trap to get people to document their possession of an illegal SBR. It was speculated that submitting a Form 1 might result in arrests and imprisonments of otherwise innocent...

This is an NFA question but since it's mostly a legal one I thought I would post it here first. I own a few short-barrelled rifles and silencers as part of an NFA trust that lists myself and my wife as trustees. The primary beneficiary who will eventually receive all my NFA items is her brother...

Which brand of 22 ammo is most likely to have the fewest dead priming spots? I have an acquaintance who insists her 22 revolver is all she’s willing to use as a self-defense gun. IMO reliability is the single most important factor for this use, more so than velocity or fancy bullets. My first...

I carry a can of pepper spray in my front left pocket, but I’ve recently come to the conclusion that it's mostly just a talisman. To actually use it I have to reach into my pocket and then grasp and orient it correctly before using it. I could probably draw, aim and halfway empty my gun in the...

This thought came to me when I was responding to another thread in this forum. KY law (and I presume a lot of other states) makes a distinction between physical force and deadly physical force. Definitions below: "Physical force" means force used upon or directed toward the body of another...

I’ve been wanting a small, pocketable 22LR auto for a while now. I bought a Ruger LCP but found it disappointing in terms of accuracy. I went to look at a Walter PPK/S today and frankly wasn’t all that impressed with it either. It weighed a ton, felt rough, and had a laughably leafy trigger...

We are all aware that rifles and pistols stabilize their projectiles by using tight fitting grooves in the barrel to spin them rapidly. Most are also aware that arrows and smoothbore guns like the M1 Abrams tank are stabilized by aerodynamic drag from fins or fletching at the rear of an...

I was looking at my Walmart purchase history from August 2020 and saw my Savage Axis 270 that I paid $124 for. That reminded me that this is about the time WalMart has cleared out guns prior to the new fall stock in previous years. A member had been gracious enough to post links to inventory...

https://www.docjt.ky.gov/ccdw The training manuals and course video for the KY CCDW permit class are available online. Even if you don’t plan to get a permit it’s a good overview of the laws around self-defense and legal use of deadly force. While it is obviously Kentucky-specific, there are...

I know all cheap scopes are junk, but I’m half heartedly considering a Crimson Trace rimfire scope for a plinking rifle. I have other 22 rifles with good scopes so I will always have access to a good optic should I need one, but I wouldn’t mind saving a few bucks for a range gun. Anyone have any...

Is there a production left handed 22LR bolt action with a threaded muzzle that’s not a single shot? I’m not having any luck finding one.

I’ve been getting emails from this group almost daily, and no matter how many times I click their unsubscribe link they still keep coming. I know I didn’t sign up for them, and I know that I will never spend a penny with anyone who spams me that hard. Is anybody else getting a barrage of spam...
