    Stainless steel and RUST...

    Awhile back my so-called "stainless steel" Swiss Army Officer's watch fell apart. While the case and most of the band-links were stainless, the small posts that held them together were not. I mean they just dissolved! Have any of you popped the side case on a SS revolver or stripped down...

    Under-the-bed gun storage...

    Ideally, I'd like to buy a stand-up gun safe but don't have closet space so have been tinkering with the idea of a secure way of storing my guns under the bed. :confused: Does anyone make a flat, locking, metal storage container that I could store my meager home arsenal of 5 rifles/shotguns...

    Kel-Tec fans: Seen this ??

    Kel-Tec fans: read on; Kel-Tec detractors: You might as well move on.... As an owner of a P11, P32, and P3AT, I predicted if a lighter, thinner, affordable 9mm pistol was built, Kel-Tec would build it. Well, here it is: http://www.kel-tec.com/pf9pr.htm Oh, and if that is not enough...

    Does S&W still make the mod 342PD ??

    That's the .38 spcl scandium J-frame, all black with the red hi-viz sights. Went online to their website and all I see is the 340PD which is the .357 mag version.

    Used .44 spcl: your recommendations...

    I have had great luck with used handguns and am in the market for a used .44 spcl for general house/vehicle defense. Those of you who have a .44 spcl, what do you like about yours and what do you endorse? I have never shot one but I would bet one would be an ideal defensive weapon. I don't...

    The ban's over; What to do next ??

    How about a drive to enact a NATIONAL right-to-carry law ?? I'm feeling a little heady today.

    Can you help me do the "switcheroo?"

    I presently have a Beretta Neos U22 and would like to trade it in on a good all-purpose revolver of the same caliber. After much shooting, I find my Neos is fussy with ammo and stubborn about chambering certain types, plus it has a terrible trigger. What I want is something that has a GOOD...

    Gun hatin' wifey hit a grand-slam. I told her don't get me anything unless its a new car or a gun. Here's what my sweetheart came up with......FUN with a capital "F." how about you?

    OMYGOD! I bought a Beretta Neos.....

    Went to my favorite gun store intent on buying myself and my family a nice .22 autoloader. Autrey's Armory has one of the largest selections of .22's on the planet and I fondled them ALL. Rugers, Brownings, S&W's, et al. Towards the end, the salesman said "Oh, almost forgot to show you the...

    Wifey sez she'll shoot with me IF.......

    I get something that doesn't kick like a mule! The last thing she shot was my 2" .38 spcl snubby, a handful for most folks. I'm now looking for a nice .22 auto - specifically the Browning Buckmark or Ruger Mark II. I also have two grandsons who will be able to shoot one of these fine...

    For those of you who live in south metro Atlanta....

    A new indoor shooting range and gun store has just opened up in Fayettevelle on highway 314 about 2 miles north of Fayette Pavillion. I recognize some of the employees from the now defunct Adventure Arms of Fayetteville. They are well-stocked with rifles, handguns, ammo and supplies. They...

    I knew I'd be seriously hooked !

    I took my $149 WalMart Mossberg mod 88 skeet and trap shooting for the first time. That goes for me AND my shotgun. That last time I ever fired a shotgun was age 12 (I'm 57). It took me about 5 shots to bust my first pigeon and hook me for life. I put about 100 rounds through it and had...

    Tell us more about the .17 HMR....

    I know next-to-nothing about this recent caliber. I assume it is a rifle round, although North American Arms and Taurus have built handguns around it. Being the "22luvr," It looks like a made-to-order varmint eliminator. I've heard that velocities out of rifles are practically off-scale...

    Re-bluing advice for a revolver......

    I've talked to a couple of friends here at work and they're telling me that re-bluing a revolver is not as much trouble as I had anticipated. With that in mind, does anyone have any practical experience or advice? Thanks...................

    Did I do the "right thing?"

    A couple of days ago, I went into one of the better-stocked pawn shops to look at the handguns. Things were going pretty well when I asked to look at a CZ 75BD (drool). The guy behind the counter casually wondered "Is this a 10 round or 15 round mag?" Without further adoo, he grabs a box of...

    Some of you may have seen this but.....

    I'll post it anyway. This has been lifted from the NAA board. If it is already here somewhere and is redundant, I'll delete it. Good stuff anyway.... They want you to say (and you lose if you say): PRO GUN It's better to say (and they lose if you say): PRO RIGHTS...

    What to look for in a used autoloader??

    I've used Jim March's "what to look for in a used revolver" to buy a couple of creampuff examples and now I'm wondering if there is a counterpoint to it regarding used autoloaders. I get sticker-shock every time I check out a new autoloader and would rather buy a good used specimen for about...

    Best "from-the-factory" trigger, SA and DA?

    Realizing trigger pull is a personal, somewhat nebulous thing.......FOR YOU, which revolver you've shot has the best stock trigger in both SA and DA? For me, it was a Smith model 629. I was just blown away with the absolute silky smooth DA and the incredible feathery-light SA pull. For a...

    IDPA -vs- IPSC comparisons..........

    Which one of these competition disciplines is the most active and growing entity? I don't want to get into something that is on the way down but something that is vital, active, and growing. IDPA looks like it would be a little easier on the budget and more to real-life than others and I...
