    I don't want a Sig P365. Tell me why I'm wrong or offer options.

    The time is coming that I want to replace my 14 year old Glock 36 with something that is easier to rack the slide. At age 59, I still have enough hand strength for the G36, but I'd like to get something that would ride with me for another 14 years or more. I keep looking at replacement guns...

    Hera Arms H6 folding stock bolt action rifle

    Y'all may have seen this before, but it's new to me. The Hera Arms H6 rifle by Hera Industries. That side mounted magazine sure is something I don't recall seeing on modern production guns, let alone a bolt gun. 😳 https://en.hera-arms.de/h6-rifle https://hera-usa.com/spring-2024-h6-rifle/...

    Just a heads up for anyone interested in XS night sights that XS is having a sale this weekend. I just ordered another set of the DXT2 Big Dot night sights. At my age, the Big Dots are like using large numbered playing cards. 🧐 https://xssights.com/ XS is based in Ft. Worth, Texas for those...

    Taurus and the Judge Home Defender

    Taurus recently released a big ol' handgun at 19.5" long, 13" barrel, and 3.7 lbs. https://www.taurususa.com/revolvers/taurus-judge/taurus-judge-home-defender-410-ga-alloy-steel-13-00-in I suppose this is a better solution than the Rossi Brawler? Just don't get your arm above the cylinder...

    Ruger Bearcat in .32 H&R Magnum

    If I had money to blow on something that shoots expensive ammo, this might just be the ticket. https://www.gunsinternational.com/guns-for-sale-online/revolvers/ruger-revolvers-single-action/gary-reeder-hellcat-32h-r.cfm?gun_id=102300915 Anyone here have a Bearcat chambered in something other...

    Keystone Overlander - single shot "pack" rifle

    The other thread about the M6 survival rifle brought up the M4 survival rifle, which made me think of sliding stock rimfire rifles. Lo and behold, Keystone snuck this little critter out. Looks like fun...

    Wood and Blued Steel 9mm Carbine? - Henry Homesteader

    Whaaaaaat? Where did this come from? Interesting. Very interesting. “Furthering the modularity of the Homesteader is its magazine well. The Homesteader has the capability to accept Henry’s proprietary magazines, Glock Magazines, Sig 320 magazines, and Smith & Wesson M&P magazines.” :what...

    Got a new "survival/pack" rifle - show me yours

    For quite some time, I've had a wire stock rimfire carbine on my mind ever since I saw an interesting set up by Nodak Spud several years ago. Finally, some stars aligned for me with the find of a nicely modified 1993 Marlin 25N about a month ago. Then being able to get what may have been the...

    .22 mag Switch Gun - cool gadget or?

    Not a switch blade, but an automatic opening revolver. Looks like a neat gadget. If I was made of money, I'd have an entire collection of gadget guns. https://stdgun.com/switch-gun/

    Your Favorite Rifle (of the week, season, or all-time)

    You'll have to forgive me, but I'm bouncing off the walls a bit bored at the moment. As inspired by the Your Favorite Handgun thread, what would you say is your favorite rifle? This could be your favorite of the week, the season, the year, or for all-time. I'll start with my favorite of 2020...

    .45 Colt Lever Action Gallery Gun?

    I came across this interestingly eccentric interpretation of a Marlin lever gun tonight. https://yorkguns.com/shop/marlin-1894-45-colt-gallery-rifle/ Per the text of the ad, it's a Gallery Gun. Are there any British shooters able to tell more how a .45 Colt gallery gun like this would be...

    Small Revolvers used as Kit Guns

    How about a photo thread and discussion on small revolvers that can be used as Kit Guns? I don't have the name sake made by S&W, but I do have a Ruger and a recently picked up Charter Arms that seem to fall into the Kit Gun size and weight range. Both of my specimens have 3 inch barrels and are...

    Lever Action "AR" - aka Red Ryd AR

    I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but this looks like a fantastical manually operated "AR". It's like it's from an alternative universe or something. Kinda cool with the old school wood and lever morphed into it. Looks like a fun creation. A bit more can be found below...

    Kel-Tec CP33 / 33 round capacity .22 LR pistol

    Well, I didn't see this coming. Looks like another fun gun and cheaper to shoot than the PMR30. :cool: "The new CP33™ pistol quickly makes competitive shooting no contest. It takes the optic and suppressor host game to the next level, turning long range targets into short range bullseyes. 33...

    Brought home a Bearcat

    I've been jonesing for a Ruger Bearcat for several years now. Today, I picked up a lightly used stainless Bearcat Shopkeeper. It's small, but it has to be the densest feeling 23 oz. of gun I've felt in some time. The birds head grip shape and width forms to the meaty palm of my hand...

    Best optic money spent in quite some time.

    Today, I picked up my first set of new glasses in probably 4 years. My kid's health, car repairs, home repairs, etc. have all taken precedent as I tend to put myself last with a few things. Especially prescription eye wear with the justification that "I can still see that, sort of.". :scrutiny...

    Pistol caliber carbine poll / semi-autos only

    Which currently made semi-auto pistol caliber carbine would you want if you were in the market for one? Chambered for any auto-loading centerfire pistol cartridge, but many in the poll are 9mm only. What I've listed are 16"+ barreled versions. Please add comments about SBR versions if that is...

    Rimfire "Scout" Rifle

    Just thought I'd show some photos of my latest modification to my already modified Zastava MP22 in .22 WMR. I modified a picatinny rail blank to mount on this gun to replace the red dot I could no longer focus on with a "scout" type scope.

    Prismatic Red Dots for non-AR long guns

    As my eyes age, and I find the need to use scopes mostly for the ability to focus the reticle, it makes me wish there were more red dots with a reticle or dot focus capability. There are several Prismatic red dots for AR rifles set at AR rifle sight height, but for a traditionally stocked...
