    Boyds At-One stock owners, need your help!

    Having owned Boyds stocks, Boyds actually already removes material in all of the "usual places", so that's not super helpful. Here's a picture of the under-barrel channel on an At-One

    Boyds At-One stock owners, need your help!

    I'm looking to hook my Marlin 925 up with a Boyds At-One stock. Problem is, the rimfire league I shoot in caps the weight of the rifle at a strict 7.5 lbs, optics included. My rifle sans current stock weighs in at exactly 4lbs 7.5oz. The Boyds website lists the rifle as weighing "approximately 3...

    Child-proof small gun safe?

    I did do a search on the forum before posting, but most of the threads on this subject were from years and years ago. I'm looking for a small safe that will be placed in a nightstand drawer. I'm not concerned about burglary or fireproofness, but am very concerned about kids getting access...

    Sight dovetails for pistols: Novak, Heinie, others?

    I've decided I'm going with Zach's original suggestion of a Novak front cut, 1911 milspec rear cut. Deciding factors were: 1. Less material removed in back - I dunno how much the Makarov has to spare, and don't want to mess anything up... though people have obviously mounted Novak sights on...

    Sight dovetails for pistols: Novak, Heinie, others?

    Looking on Midway or Brownells, though, there is a massive selection of Novak-style sights. So maybe it'd be worth it going that route. Ah, decisions, decisions :D

    Sight dovetails for pistols: Novak, Heinie, others?

    And correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I read that the Novak front dovetail is actually the same dimensions as the 1911 milspec rear dovetail (.330" x 65 deg)? So theoretically, the gunsmith shouldn't even have to change bits to do something like that? I like your idea, as this isn't a...

    Sight dovetails for pistols: Novak, Heinie, others?

    So I have a Makarov pistol on which I want to replace the factory rights (they're rudimentary). I thought that dovetails for pistol sights would have some kind of industry standard, but as I'm now discovering, that's just not the case. So: what kind of dovetails should I have cut? Novak seems...

    B&D Powermate reloading bench and rifle cartridges

    I'm looking to get into reloading, but don't have a lot of space. I really really like the concept of using a Black and Decker Workmate and building a custom top for it because I'd be able to fold it up and stow it, unlike, for example, the Lee reloading press stand or similar. However, I've...

    Plastic table to shoot off of that I can leave outdoors

    I have a shooting range on my property. Well, I have a backstop and marked distances from the backstop. One of the things that would make this "shooting range" a lot more convenient is if there was a table on which to set equipment / shoot from. I was thinking of getting one of those plastic top...

    Former NYC Mayoral Candidate Actually Compares Gun Owners to Convicted Sex Offenders

    Yeah, I think it would be much more useful for burglars to know which houses DON'T have any firearms. Except that too many of the anti-gunners (I mean politicians) employ armed bodyguards.

    Boycott Cheaper Than Dirt

    Cheaper Than Dirt has announced that it is suspending online firearm sales on its Facebook page. I propose an indefinite boycott of that company until they change their policies.

    Need recommendation for shooting glasses

    Here is the problem: When shooting trap/skeet/clays, I tilt my head very far forward. I'm literally looking down the barrel from under my eyebrow. This is instinctive and comfortable for me, and I get the best results this way. However, with most safety glasses, and I've tried a few brands...

    Big loss for concealed carry in NY court today

    This has been the law in New York for close to 100 years now (Sullivan law). So this court decision was just to uphold the existing law of the land. Hopefully, the Supreme Court will overturn it.

    Ammunition in the vehicle (long term)

    Just shoot the ammo every 3 months and you'll be fine. Actually, this is a good idea whether or not it's stored in the car. This makes sure that your ammo doesn't go bad, that your gun functions with your carry ammo, keeps you in some practice, etc.

    Accurizing rifles

    Your initial question was: what's the most important issue for accurizing a rifle? This would be my list, in the order I would do it: 1) Replace or do work on the trigger. This will make a HUGE difference. Usually, I stop right there because that's all the accuract I need out of my rifles. 2)...
