    EAA Customer Service Sucks

    So I took out my EAA Windicator a few days back and put a few rounds through it again, no problem. The gun is comfortable and heavy, which is nice. I have the .357 so it is all steel minus the trugger guard and barrel shroud. The Windicator seems solid with many good reviews and I still think...

    Gold accent Beretta 21a value?

    My wife's grandmother has a black Beretta 21a with gold inlays, wood grips, and PB on the top of the slide in gold lettering. It is the .22lr model and is literally unfired. It has the box, papers, and original mag. The gun is NIB. How much is it worth now? Not a huge amount of info on...

    Need Mak90 info!

    So a family member has been given an AK, specifically a Mak 90. I took it apart to clean it for him and found that the bolt was, get this, completely absent from the carrier/piston assembly. Now these AK's came out of a guy's closet still packed in boxes wrapped in plastic and coated in...

    XDM 4.5 Trade Value?

    Hey guys I've only ever traded one gun in my life at a store so I want to get a good deal but I'm not sure what to expect difference wise after trade value. I'm thinking of trading off my LNIB Springfield XDM 4.5" handgun in .40S&W for an identical gun chambered in 9mm. The gun still has the...

    Need Photo of Rossi 5 Shot...

    Need some help here guys. I need a photo of one of the older pre-Taurus Rossi revolvers without the side plate installed. My problem is that I had to replace the hand and bolt stop but can't figure out how the trigger lever is situated when the trigger group is reinstalled. The old Rossi guns...

    S&W SD9VE vs Tristar L120

    In a couple of months I'm going to be buying another handgun in the $350 range. I'm torn between grabbing another Tristar L120 (already got one that's great) and a Smith and Wesson SD9VE. Both are similar in size and capacity. Both are comfortable. Tristar has a better trigger and I...

    Anybody broken their Tristar pistol yet?

    Across all models of Canik pistols I've read almost exclusively good reports across the board online. I have several of them myself and so far they've been flawless. I'm just wondering, has anyone broken theirs yet? They seem to be awesome and now that the Ruger P95 has been discontinued...

    Taurus model 809 9mm?

    Well after officially abandoning my search for a compact PDW (apparently affordable ones in the $600-800 range don't exist) I have decided to buy another hi cap 9mm pistol. I've been looking at the Taurus 809 9mm and the specs as well as the reviews seem to be great. Just wondering if...

    Recommend a PDW...

    Alright. I'll be looking for a PDW in a couple of months that isn't exactly a handgun and isn't exactly a rifle. I'm thinking of things similar to AK pistols, the Kel Tec PLR16, large pistols with hi cap mags, or pistol caliber carbines. I want something with a decent capacity that is...

    Refinishing Security Six?

    I'm thinking of having a professional rebluing job done on my Ruger Security Six that only has about 20% finish remaining. What I'm wondering is, will a good rebluing job restore the value to this thing or would I be wasting my money? I know refinishing some guns shoots the value into the...

    Tristar L120 Review.

    I wrote and posted this on another forum but figured I'd post it here too since there doesn't seem to be a large amount of info on these online yet. Anyways here it is: Not so long ago I walked into my local Academy Sports store hoping that they had one of the guns that had recently piqued my...

    Taurus TCP vs Kel Tec P3AT

    I'm thinking about grabbing one of these two pistols. Which would you go with and why? I've got lots of other guns so no "buy this instead" please. I'm strictly interested in the two options listed.

    Yugo vs Norinco SKS?

    Hey guys I'm looking at getting another SKS because I think they're probably the last milsurp rifle that is really affordable and of respectable quality. I've already got a Norinco outfitted with a Tapco stock and a few of the Tapco 20 round mags. Before anyone starts yelling about it, yes, I...

    SA vs DAO rate of fire...

    Alright so right now, I'm stuck in an argument with a bunch of guys on another forum about fire rate in seni automatics. Is it mechanically or humanly possible to fire a double action only semi automatic pistol as fast as a single action semi automatic pistol. For me, it seems simple. A...

    Leaving AK Mags Loaded?

    Alright so I'm keeping my AK mags of various manufacture fully loaded in the gun safe. I've got quite a few of them now and I'm basically wondering if it'll cause any harm in the long run to keep them loaded. My granddad says that I shouldn't keep them loaded for long periods because the...

    SKS and 922r...

    I know a little about the 922r compliance and how it effects the SKS. A buddy of mine bought an SKS with various modifications and mixed parts. There's no way I can tell if it is legal or not in it's current state and it'd be costly to rebuild the gun around 922r compliance, especially given...

    Good Experiences with Saturday Night Specials?

    Hey guys, I've got several cheap guns now along side my $600+ stuff. Among my collection are a couple of RG revolvers, a Raven, a Phoenix HP22, and several other various guns from cheap manufacturers. Long term durability is obviously not going to be great with $75-$120 guns but for...

    Full Nylon Jacketed Ammo?

    I bought some .40S&W today for about $15 per box and then I noticed that they were something I'd never seen before. The jackets are nylon. It is very odd to me. Is there anything I should know about them? I got them to use for practice but I'm just wondering that if someone had to use...

    Campaign against CTD.

    In recent months I've noticed some pretty obvious price gouging going on by this company ($23 for a box of 50 rds .22lr!). There are several things we can do to let them know we aren't happy about their obvious profiteering and greed directed toward the very people that have made Cheaper Than...

    Tristar (Canik) C100 750 Round Impressions.

    Well guys I bought the Tristar C100 several months back and now have 750 rounds through it. My initial impressions are very positive. The only thing I wish I knew was the long term durability, 750 rounds is good but I'd like to know how it'd perform at 5,000 rounds. Anyways I'm going to...
