CAI RAS47 Century Arms International Russian Army Standard 47 I am writing this review to give others, considering the purchase of an RAS47, as unbiased a review as I can give, so that they can make a better informed decision. Much of the information available on the internet is biased...

This is a short review of my new Kimber Solo Carry DC. After quite a bit if research, including going over both the positive and negative reviews of this Kimber, I decided to purchase this pocket 9mm pistol. I have always wanted a Kimber, but other firearm decisions got in the way. Now it...

Just to give everyone an idea of the state of the current ammunition famine . . . At 6:13pm today, I checked my email, and found an "In Stock" notification from MidwayUSA, regarding Armscor 125gr FMJ 357 magnum ammunition. I immediately went to their website, and found that they had already...

I just got notice of some gun control legislation for the state of Nevada, SB 221. IMO, a significant chunk of it is quite good. It strengthens the state government's ability to keep the mentally ill from possessing firearms. On the bad side, it introduces Universal Background checks. SB...

I had a brainstorm while reading another Ruger 10/22 thread. If every man and woman in the US who can legally own a firearm were given a Ruger 10/22, that irresistible urge to buy stuff to "make it perfect" would fuel a spending wave that could pull our country out of recession. It could be...

I am in the process of reorganizing all of my ammo into .30 cal ammo cans. The bulk stuff just gets unboxed and dumped into the cans. The premium ammo (defense or hunting ammo) goes into the cans still in the original packaging, for added protection. That leaves the rest, mostly...

While perusing what limited ammunition was available at my local ammo retailer, I noticed what primarily remained was boutique "specialty" ammo. Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel, Hornady Personal Defense, Hornady Zombie Max, etc. My mind drifted to the horrible idea of certain calibers being...

Ever since I saw the movie Johnny Dangerously, I've wanted an 88 Magnum. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you really need to see this film. http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Johnny_Dangerously As the IMFDB states, the movie gun was a Colt New Service revolver in 45 Colt. Well, I didn't...

I have just received a VEPR 308 with the 27" barrel. It comes with a 5 round and a 10 round. I am double checking that it would be perfectly legal to use 5 and 10 round US made magazines, as this does not change the sporting configuration. I've done a lot of internet searches, and believe...

One of the mantras you frequently come across when discussing CCW is that you dress around the gun, not choose a gun that fits you mode of dress. What I would like to discuss are those clothes, including specific brands, you use to conceal your carry weapon? I like to choose clothes that...

I have a S&W 28-2 Highway Patrolman. I bought it used, knowing it has a (slightly) damaged barrel. I sent it to S&W in the hopes they could fit a replacement barrel, but they informed me that they can not, and have no alternative barrel choices for me. So I am posting here for gunsmith...

I'm looking to add good World War 2 fiction to my personal library. I already have most of W.E.B Griffin and Herman Wouk. Any author/title suggestions are welcome. Please, no "alternative history" recommendations.

Well as the title says, I considering the purchase of an H&R handy rifle. Specifically, a Superlight Compact in either .223 or 22 Hornet. This rifle will be for plinking and target shooting. I reload neither caliber, but probably will after I buy the rifle. I currently have 2 ARs in...

I was fiddling around with my Mosin M44, and was intrigued with the bayonet fixture. Specifically using the design to mount a supressor. From an operator's point of view (military or otherwise) would this sort of set-up work, and be useful? Obviously not on an M44. Would being able to...

Thought everyone might be interest in a little email I got from Mike at CZ-USA. I was wondering about the ability of the CZ-527 Carbine to handle 5.56mm NATO Spec ammo. I searched several forums but couldn't find an answer, so I emailed the company. As such, I have just now moved this...

Is there any reason I just can't JB weld the Gas Key to the Bolt Carrier?

Lately, I've been thinking about getting a 6" barrel 1911, either one of the "Long Slide" versions, or a GM with a 6" barrel fitted to it. Search didn't turn up anything useful, so I'm starting a new thread. I'm looking for any experience had with such a pistol, including ported barrels. My...

This is my first try at a Survival Kit in an Altoids tin. It was a fun challenge seeing what I could fit into it and keep everything down to bare essentials. Here is the kit with the contents on display. The tin in the upper corner is all packed. Contents: Altoid Tin Coast Cutlery...

I just got back my Saiga 12g shotgun, improved by Tony Rumore (Tromix) and I had to post a few pics. I may replace the vertical grip with a light. haven't decided yet. Ace Folding Stock G3 Battle Sights Galil Style Up Swept Bolt Handle Manual BHO Fore End Picatinny Rail Vertical...
