    Cutting a shotgun barrel with a vent rib

    What do I need to cut a barrel down on a shotgun that has a vent rib? I have a radial arm saw, I'm sure I'll need a special blade for it, any suggestions. Any smiths out there have advice for dealing with the vent rib so it doesn't look shoddy when the product is finished? Finally, aside...

    Can anyone recommend an inexpensive "bobtail" 1911?

    Title really says it all. I'm looking for a bobtail 1911 but I don't need (or want, really) a 2,500 dollar custom piece. The only real "criteria" I have is it needs to be chambered for 10MM or .45 ACP ETA: I'm lokking to get as far under a grand as is possible without getting a "problem" for...

    Prayer request ...

    I hate to do this. I have been an everyday reader of this board and a sometimes contributor here. I have a small favor to ask. My mom is 66 and has been diagnosed with a malignant brain and lung tumor. She's spry, feisty and full of life, so far. Please, keep her in your prayers, thoughts or...

    Kahr mag troubles

    Boy I feel a bit silly asking this question. I need extra mags for a couple of guns I have. I have a Kahr CW9 and CW45 but I have no idea which mags go with each. Kahr has several different flavors of 9 and 45 that I'm not sure which mags are interchangeable. Can anyone tell me which...

    Kahr CW45 and the Comp-Tac Minotaur

    Hey everybody, I recently aquired a Kahr CW45 to replace my Kahr CW9. Imagine my surprise when I logged onto the Comp-Tac website and discovered the CW45 is not a model they have the Kydex "face plates" to match to the hybrid holster they make. I sent an E-mail to the "contact us" address and...

    I would never run toward the sound of gunfire.

    I saw this posted by a forum member and wondered how many of you feel the same way. I carry a gun everywhere I go, usually my head's on swivel. I'm fat, slow and (moderately) untrained but, I'm no coward. I would run to the sound of gunfire. I don't think I'm the mall ninja. I don't...

    1911 Hammer drops to half-cock, sometimes.

    So I have another Ithaca 1911 that will sometimes drop to half-cock when the slide is dropped from stop/lock position. I feel this is a safety issue, I've never seen a 1911 behave this way. Heck I refuse to load this pistol on principle alone. What can I do? If I can't do anything can...

    Quick 1911 slide stop question.

    My gunsmithing skills are just about nil. That said I seem to have misplaced my Wilson Combat Extended Slide Stop for my Ithaca full size 1911. I found a replacement for $23 plus shipping but all the places that stock it say "Some fitting may be required" ..... What exactly does that mean...

    Smoking deal, serious caveat, legally speaking.

    Please, read the whole thing before replying. Thank you for your time. I'm looking down the barrel at a smoking deal on a RRA AR-15. The only difficulty I have is it has a 14.5 inch bbl and a perm. attached flash hider to bring it up to legal. My quandry is whether or not it'd be legal or...

    I just bought a new DPMS 308 and have a problem, help?

    So, I just picked up a DPMS LR-308 and I absolutely love it! However, I have a problem. I'm probably just ignorant, so I'm hoping one of you fine folks might be able to educate me. So, the problem I'm having is: When I chamber a round of South African surplus 308 the bolt won't go into...

    I just talked to the BATF&E ...

    My it was anti-climatic. I had a question about transferring a rifle from NJ to TX by car for the purposes of gifting it from one non-licensee to another. So, I called my Houston division office. They answered my question in a very professional and matter-of-fact way about the federal law...

    I need a bit of help with a Saiga 308, please.

    I have a saiga 308 in the "sporter" condition. I'd like to convert it to the "AK pistol grip, trigger group, foldable/collapsible stock, suppressor capable" configuration. I'd enjoy hearing some ideas from the forums. I'm inclined mechanicaly but not over-confident when it comes to guns. I'd...

    Got my first rifle, need some help, please.

    OK. I just got me a new Saiga 308-1 and am already loving it. The AK sights are very nice, in my opinion. My boggle comes in the form of a question: What kind of scope and mount? There are a few considerations. I only spent $319 on the rifle (new, in box and unfired, I think I got a good deal...

    Did I screw up!?

    I bought a glock with standard white sights. Should I have sprung for the upgrade at retail or can I still get a good deal after-market? I like these sights, but I hear need to find some tritium and possibly a laser. Any suggestions?
