    America's Center St Louis concealed carry?

    The convention center is connected the football stadium. I've never heard of any problems during football games or other events at or near the stadium. Everything is in a pretty safe part of town. However, you don't need to go very far north of the convention center, say a mile or so, to...

    Who else thinks interchangeable back-straps are stupid?

    As someone with larger than average hands and long fingers, I can tell you that a proper grip can be hard to get and hard to maintain through recoil. A larger backstrap and a bit of a palm swell make it much easier for me to get the correct grip from holster to presentation.

    $2000 to start gun collection- what would you buy?

    I would lean to some older military guns. They are interesting, full of character, and many are relatively inexpensive. Swiss K31 ~ $200 - $300 depending on condition and stock (beech or walnut) Not extremely rare, but certainly unusual with the straight-pull bolt action, very well made and...

    Starter rifle

    Another vote for any CZ and the Marlin 39A. A new CZ can be had in the stated price range, the Marlin not so much but worth the price new or the search used.

    appreciate your opinion on CZ 2075 RAMI P

    If you're not going to carry it, I would trade/sell it and find something full size for a home defense gun.

    For the ruger 10/22 lovers!

    Well, you don't need to strap a light or a laser or an aftermarket stock on a 10/22 to shoot moa. And why not just buy an AR lower and dedicated .22 upper if you want to be tacticool?

    For the ruger 10/22 lovers!

    I'd like to build an LTR some day (although I'm not 100% I would use a 10/22) and understand scopes and slings and free floating the barrel, etc. But I just don't grok spending big $$ to pimp out a 10/22. I guess there are too many other shooting-related things I would buy with that money...

    Which AR15 to Get?

    The lower-end Sabre Defence models will fit in that price range.

    22 handgun for targets

    Another vote for Buckmark - whatever model has the features you like. But on the other hand. If you have or are going to buy another handgun, for carry or home defense or range use, you may want to consider a .22 conversion kit for it. Most Sig, CZ, or 1911s will take conversion kits and are...

    Best choice for less than $300 gun for Christmas gift?

    How about something from the WWII era? You can still get a nice K31 for that price or one of the various Mausers or a Mosin Nagant and a pile of ammo. For something slight more modern, a Yugo SKS and a tech sight would come in at about $300.

    1858 New Model Army Conversion

    I'm looking to buy my first single action revolver and need a bit of help. I'm quite familiar with semi auto models and manufacturers, but know very little about single action. My experience shooting single action is limited to a few hundred rounds through my father-in-law's Ruger single six...

    sig 229 9mm or cz 75 compact sao

    You really couldn't go wrong once you narrowed it down to those two. If you prefer IWB holster, be sure to check out Crossbreed supertuck.

    Opinions on a new conceal carry weapon

    IMHO concealability is more about a good holster than the gun. You can get all the physical specs on gun size from the manufacturer's websites. There are a great many guns that are very similar in size. I carry a CZ 75 PCR which is a doublestack compact year round including in shorts and a t...

    Cheapest places to buy ammo outside of gun shows?

    Range ammo at walmart. The last price paid was $9.47/50 for Federal 9mm FMJ SD ammo at ATG and prestostore.com currently selling Winchester Ranger T 124gr +p for $20.10. They say they only sell to LE, but if they have it in stock, they will sell to civilians. ammoengine.com also keeps track...

    Rimfire reliabillity

    I've also had very good luck with Federal 550 and 333 bulk packs. My CZ kadet functions fine with everything I've put in it. But I have a buckmark that has been a bit picky with some ammo. Once I started feeding it the Federal, there have been very few misfires that I can recall. I've also...

    CZ 75 Compact...Recommend or not?

    More praise for the PCR. I chose it over the P01 for carry because it doesn't have a rail, does a have a decocker, and I prefer the sights. I carry it in a crossbreed supertuck and barely notice it. I also bought the kadet kit and get lots of extra trigger time shooting rimfire.
