I need a common sense answer to this question, so I come to THR. I don't want to get too much into the weeds with tensile strength, type of aluminum alloy, etc. I'm going to get a RRA Operator stock for my AR. I have one on my other AR and really like it. RRA gives two options (they only sell...

I've searched the web on this question, but I get differing or unclear responses, so I will ask THR: I want to get a Glock OEM threaded barrel for a Gen 5 and a Gen 3 Glock 19. (I just prefer OEM; I know there are alternatives.) Glock in their armorer's parts list, lists two such barrels: Part #...

I know this question has many posts on the web, but I could not find any from this forum. I trust THR a lot, so I will ask: I'm looking for an affordable threaded barrel to put into my G19. Doesn't have to be anything fancy. Just has to be reliable. At some point I might want to add a...

I'm looking for an aftermarket accessory to make it easier to rack the slide on my G26 Gen 4. I know there are a bunch out there, but can anyone make any recommendations based on their personal experience (not hearsay)? Requirements: 1) Must not affect reliability 2) Relatively inexpensive 3)...

I know this sounds like an oddball question, but I am curious and have not found much on the web about this. My house gun is currently a revolver. I am thinking of replacing it with one of my striker-fired semi-autos. The odds are that it will sit in its appointed spot indefinitely without me...

Hello – I had an interesting experience at the range yesterday, and as a result, I would like some opinions from THR. To set the stage for my question: I currently keep a J-frame revolver at home for my home defense gun. I live in a decent neighborhood with low crime, so under the...

Hello - Need some advice here, and THR is always my first source. I've read some previous posts on this subject, but have some different questions. I have a SA "Loaded" 1911 in 9mm. Basically their 1911 with nicer sights, etc. I want to replace the OEM MSH (with the ILS) with this MSH housing...

I have a Vortex Venom RDS mounted on my Ruger PC carbine. I have two questions about it. I think they are completely unrelated, so I will ask them separately: 1) I had it mounted directly on top of the integrated receiver top rail and had it zeroed to POA/POI. Now I have added a riser, so the...

This is a long shot, but I am wondering if anyone here has the Archangel stock installed on their Ruger PC carbine. I have read mixed reviews on this stock; some people say it's drop-in, others say it isn't molded all that well and needs fitting. It's this one...

I bought this for a night shoot at my club, just wanted something inexpensive for the shoot. It fits my Polymer80 and Springfield Armory XDM just fine, but will not slide onto my G19 Gen 5. (The rail on the gun seems slightly too wide for it.) That strikes me as odd. Do Glocks have some type of...

Hard to find a good forum for P80 nowadays, so I am relying on my go-to source for things that go bang: THR. Hoping someone can assist with this question. I just bought a jig for a Polymer80 full-size pistol frame (PF940V2), and the frame and jig don't seem to be mating all that well. There is...

Was watching a recent episode of a TV police show, and it featured a segment on Glock switches, which I had never heard of. Apparently these devices convert a Glock to full-auto. Did some internet searching and found this...

I recently bought a Primary Arms red dot sight for ~$80 to put on my Ruger 10/22. It seems decent (haven't used it yet), but of course, it's made in China. I try to stay away from Chinese-made products if there are alternatives available, even if the non-Chinese product is "somewhat" more...

I've just started using the Strelok app, and I compared its readings to my "real-world" settings, and I am getting strange results. So I am hoping someone can tell me what the problem (with the app, I presume) is. Here is some basic info, and screenshots: 1) CZ 452 with a Burris Fullfield E1...

I'm looking for something that may not exist (I haven't been able to find it), but before I give up, I thought I would ask THR. I have a Win 9422 lever action .22 that I use for plinking and fun shooting, at no more than 50 yards currently. The iron sights don't work that well for me at 50...

Way back when I was shopping for my first AR, I read that it was cheaper to buy a lower and upper separately, because if you bought the gun complete, there was an excise tax levied on it. This was a long time ago, so not sure if it is the case today. So -- I am wondering if this is the same...

I'm sure this has been discussed, but I could not find anything on the web specific to the Gen 5. My question is: Are the G17 Gen 5 and G34 Gen 5 frames exactly the same, so that if you buy a G17 Gen 5, and later want to replace the G17 slide and barrel with a G34 slide and barrel, can you do...

Today at the range I sighted in my .22 for 50 - 200 yards, using a starting point of "0" because that is the 25-yard zero elevation I set a few weeks ago. At first I was counting rotations of the (elevation) turret and keeping track of numbers on the turret, but that got all messed up when I...

Curious if there is any official (not rumored) update on legality of purchase of Polymer 80 80% pistol Glock frames. I know they are legal to buy "today," but I seem to recall that the Biden ATF issued some notice or something (not sure) in the winter or spring to ban them, with a 120-day...

Just started researching these, and the idea of building one (legally) interests me somewhat. But after searching the web for more info, I have some reservations. Can I get some answers to the following: 1) Are there any reputable vendors that sell quality solvent trap kits? I've read about a...
