    Odd Handgun Designs (What the heck is this thing?)

    I would like to know more about the later picture. Do you know the name of the gun or designer?

    Who are your favorite Youtube gun reviewers?

    I frequently watch Forgotten Firearms and sometimes his offshoot channel Inrange. Lots of interesting history and slowmotion footage of rare and obscure operating systems. I learned a lot from nutnfancy back when I didn't know much, and I think he has a lot of good theories but I rarely watch...

    old fashioned shooting irons

    I'm what you would call the millennial generation and while I do like the new guns, the ccw craze and learning how to shoot guns tactically, none of my guns have optics. Neither of my shooting buddies do either. I only just last month finally bought an AR upper that can mount a scope, but...

    Shake your head questions

    I had a college acquaintance that tried to assure me that he could convert his sks to fully automatic and it would be legal. I told him no, and he thankfully didn't actually intend to do so, but insisted to the end of the conversation that it would be ok because he saw it on youtube.

    Looking to develop a non toxic gun oil.

    I might have been concerned at one point about toxicity, but personally after I bought a box of gloves for cleaning, I have a lot less concern for such a product. As others have said, even if your gun oil is non toxic the crap your cleaning off is, so you would be wise to wear gloves, have...

    Hirtenberger 7.62 NATO Battle Pack Arrived...

    Just was shooting some I got from the same deal. Seemed fine to me, but I was wondering if having the staked primers would be reloadable? I don't reload yet but is it worth saving?

    Good Browning Hi-Power clone.

    Like 1911's many times parts have to be fit to a hi-power but from when I was researching not all clones can interchange parts at all or perhaps with extra fitting. I would either grab one of the rough looking surplus brownings over a clone. Or I would wait for a used commercial model. That can...

    Grease or Oil? Read post first

    Thank you for taking time to explain. But I'm a little confused about your car analogy. Oil for example in a car is circulated which accounts for the usefulness of oil flushing out debris, but how much would that affect a firearm's function? Anecdotadly it seems like both grease and oil attract...

    Grease or Oil? Read post first

    I should have clarified better, but I'm just talking about lubrication in this post. I use oil for protection and clp or hoppes for cleaning.

    Grease or Oil? Read post first

    Saw a discussion about grease brands in the handguns section, but I am curious about the wisdom of grease in general. I started using grease on a CZ I had when I read that is what they need, but since then I've pretty much used it to lubricate everything that slides. Handgun rails, Ar-15 bolt...

    Whenever someone brings up Australia

    Don't forget that in the U.S. the common mass murder definition (that the antis use) is 4 or more injured/killed so that right there makes it harder to compare to Australia. The antis often include police shootings and other defensive shootings as well, does Australia? I will follow this thread...

    Of All of Your Hanguns, Which Is Your Minimal Level of Comfort for SD?

    all mine are 9mm and each has a couple pre-loaded mags of 124gr hollowpoints, so I would probably grab the hi-power for capacity.

    Help maintaining my new AR-15

    Yeah if you want quick and easy, a bore snake will do it! That's what I generally use anyway. My problem is after scrubbing the chamber extension, how do I get the crud back out of there?

    Supreme Court rules domestic abusers can lose gun ownership rights

    As others have pointed out, it's not quite as alarming as you might think. They had already been convicted of the DV, but were arguing that because under Maine law a misdemeanor could also include reckless injury, and that reckless is not the same as "misdemeanor crime of domestic violence" (as...

    Pro-RKBA LBGT groups expanding

    Good to see something positive on the times. I was just in NYC and had the chance to attend the pride parade. There was a large amount of anti-gun sentiment, and gays against guns was of course the big group there with all the media attention. Not sure where they came from as I had only been...

    Personal firearms that have never had a malfunction

    That's a tough one, I have a couple but I don't think I've shot them enough. Probably about 1000 rds through my colt commando. I thought my hi-power was doing great till I used it in a match, which I attributed to sand in the mag. I had a cz p07 that I would count because the only malfunctions...

    Shootout in Walmart parking lot.

    Surprised no-one has yet brought up the other incident that was recently discussed at length. A perfect example of what can also happen when you intervene. Link to article. http://insider.foxnews.com/2016/05/03/marine-killed-trying-intervene-domestic-dispute-texas-walgreens I could see where...

    Similar to Kahr but higher capacity?

    Also I love the highpower, I think the grip is very comfortable and is much smaller than most double stacks, however it is a different animal being single action. Also the slide is one of the hardest to rack of any handgun I've tried.

    Similar to Kahr but higher capacity?

    You might also try some of the taurus autos, like the millenium/ pt111. Smaller grip for a double stack and easy to reach the trigger and to rack the slide. It's the one my sister chose when she wanted one that was suited for small hands. It is compatible with one of the sig mags so you could...

    Would you support the No Fly No Buy List if they added Due Process?

    I know it is a little late since the vote has been made, but they may try again. Even before when it was proposed, my issue was not the denying of sale to suspected terrorists, but the issues with the list in question. If that list were fixed then why should we have a problem? The dems think...
