    Top 10 Must Own Guns

    I saw this topic over at The Firing Line, so I thought I might bring it to THR. What are the top 10 firearms, in your opinion, that every gun owner should have in their collection? Try to be realistic and make sure they are obtainable relatively easily.(No NFA please). So here's mine: 1. Ruger...

    The SKS Club

    Well, I was just downstairs in my gun room putting some ammo away when I took a good look at my 1959 mint Romanian SKS hanging up and started to think. For a gun as beautiful(IMO) and historical as this, there are no places to share the pictures and stories of this widely owned firearm on THR...

    Purpose of Crimped Primer Pockets?

    May sound like a dumb question, but what is the purpose of crimping a primer pocket during manufacturing? Is it just to keep the primer in the pocket under battlefield conditions or what? BTW I found around 2,000 rounds of LC .223 at my local range, so I bought a Dillon SS 600. It'll be here...

    Load for Rio Hulls

    I have picked up a bunch of blue ribbed Rio cases at my local club and I am wondering what a good (preferably red dot or clays) load would be. I can easily get Cheddite or Rio primers at my gun shop. I will be loading on a Mec 9000 GN. I need a 1 or 1-1/8 oz of 8s load. Around 1200 fps.

    How Does Your Collection Balance Out?

    How does your firearm collection balance between rifles, shotguns, and handguns? If you would rather not disclose how many firearms you own, use percentages. Me- Rifles-10(25%) Shotguns-9(22.5%) Handguns-21-(52.5%) P.S.- I am working on rounding out the rifle collection currently.

    Well, I just bought a beautiful stainless Taurus 94 4" bbl. and I am looking for a good leather belt holster for it. I looked online for two hours and absolutely can't find one. All that is available are the pocket holsters for the 2" models. Help please!

    Taurus Model 94

    Now that I have looked at the Taurus 94ss4 (Stainless, 4" bbl, .22), I think i'm in love. It fits my hand perfectly, the grip is extremely comfortable, it locks up tight like my smiths and colts, and it looks very attractive. All I am looking for is a practice revolver, and this seems perfect...

    Quality Older Guns

    I am going to the local gun show on July 9th and I am looking for a quality older gun for my collection. I already have a pristine pre-war tula mosin 91/30 and I really appreciate the quality and history of this gun plus it also shoots 1/4 " groups at 50 yds. I'm trying to keep this under $500...

    Firearm Record Book

    While i'm finishing out my basement and gunroom, I decided that I should make a firearm record book to keep track of my rapidly growing collection and also in case of fire or burglary. This will be kept in a liberty fire resistant safe in a steel lined room with a steel door and a deadbolt lock...

    Cold Steel TiLite Grip Panels.

    I am thinking about making grip panels for a Cold Steel TiLite. This is my EDC knife and is easily one of my favorites. What wood do you think would look nice on this knife that is commonly found in Va? (I wood like to cut the tree down and make them from scratch.)

    Do you buy guns for specific needs or just impulse?

    When you walk into a gun shop and buy a gun, is it for a specific reason/ purpose (competition, carry, etc.), or is it just if you see something cool at a decent price you buy it. Explain.

    Looking for a Derringer.

    I'm trying to round out my collection and decided that I need a 2 shot derringer. I want a quality firearm that is fairly accurate at close range. I hear bond arms is the way to go, but have no idea. I also really don't know what would be a good caliber in these guns, so I need some pointers.

    Homemade grips!

    Hey everybody, just wanted to show your my new pair of homemade grips for my 22/45. I didn't like the original stocks, and was looking for something more unique and a bit lighter in tone. These are made of scrap aspen board with a golden pecan stain. They are still drying and have yet to be...

    Midsize Revolver

    I'm looking for a midsize revolver and I need some help. I want a barrel that wouldn't be considered a snub nose, but not a full size 6+". I'm thinking around 4 or 5 " and preferably in 38/357 or 38 only. Double action of course. I would like adjustable sights, but its okay if they are fixed...

    Good AK Rifle?

    What would be the best AK rifle for a person who has never owned one before? I prefer 7.62x39 over the 5.45. The only AK platform i've ever shot was a friend's CZ Vz58 and it was fun, but the stock was a little too short for me. (I'm 6'6"). I don't care if it has wood furniture or polymer as...
