    taking my first deer

    Hi all! As you can see from my location, I currently reside in sunny and warm Puerto Rico, after moving from the mecca of firearm ownership that is the state of Texas. Well I never had a chance to hunt deer (or anything else) in Texas, but I have a great buddy who runs a hunting camp up in...

    remember to wear your hearing protection, and double up if you instruct.

    Central Michigan Shooters

    Calling central Michigan shooters: bullseye clubs are forming. If you have never shot bullseye, it is a great sport and a lot of fun and the fellow shooters are great people. Check out this site for more info on matches: http://ccrcpistolteam.weebly.com/

    Why doesn't the NRA care about Puerto Rico?

    Got a call from the NRA the other day. As someone who recently moved from Texas to PR, I am keenly aware of the gun restrictions here on the island. Clearly the poor NRA phone rep. was not. I went on the NRA activism section of their website and it's not even possible to input Puerto Rico as...

    what is the best way to store guns for 1-year or more?

    No I'm not burying my AR's in a tube... I am going to need to store several of my firearms in a climate controlled environment for about a year or so. Can anyone tell me what they think the best method for prepping the guns (long guns and hand guns) for storage is? I was thinking some CLP...

    shot a Kimber today and was shocked...at how good it was.

    Hi fellow shooters. A very nice gentleman let me shoot his Kimber Custom today (I use the word 'Custom' lightly, because as I understand it, there is no actual custom work they do, right?). I have always been a bit of a snob against Kimbers (I have a Les Baer PII 1.5" and a STI Spartan, kind...

    want to get into 3p, where to start?

    our local club is starting up a 3P league. I have a book, and well...that's about it. I don't know the exact rules; our club is an NRA club so I'd assume whatever classes are typical we will have. What should I look for in a rifle? What are some good choices? Is it pretty much just "get...

    remember, shoot more than once.

    http://www.click2houston.com/news/hcso-offduty-hpd-officer-involved-in-shooting/-/1735978/24838042/-/7s4mka/-/index.html I'm surprised this officer, confronted with a handgun, didn't fire more than 1 shot. :confused: As per usual with handguns, it was not enough to immediately stop the...

    Smart guns

    Hi fellow shooters! While this concept has been around for a while (I think I remember reading about S&W doing something like this back in the 90's), I'm hearing more and more about it. If you're not familiar, the basic premise behind the 'smart' gun is that you need something else in close...

    open carry - not strategic?

    I know a lot of people are proponents of open carry but I've wondered if this has some major strategic flaws: -the open-carrier is easily identified as a higher-level threat to a bad guy(s). I could see this becoming a major issue in say a bank robbery. -the open-carrier is 'advertising'...

    selling a gun - any feelings of responsibility?

    Not sure if this is the right sub-forum for this, but here goes: Let's say you have a reasonably 'dangerous' weapon, ie. not a .22 bolt action single shot but say an AK or AR rifle that you want to sell. Certainly we have all seen that these guns in the wrong hands can result in tragedy...

    3d printing capabilities

    Hi fellow shooters: I've seen 3d-printed guns made on printers that use metal, although these are obviously more expensive than the plastic printers. My question is: can the plastic printers produce a viable gun that can hold up to repeated firings? By this I mean a completely plastic...

    why is bulk ammo not as good as match?

    Here's something I don't understand. A good hand-load will usually be more consistent in velocity than bulk ammo. But surely the bulk manufacturers have very sophisticated powder measures, no? I would think their equipment would be superior to a hand-loaders scale and measure. Any reason...

    help with Remington 1100 not cycling

    hi fellow shooters! I pulled out my Remington 1100 after a hot summer of not shooting (it was stored indoors, no worries!) shotguns, and went out to the sporting clays range today. My gun wouldn't cycle! I have not had any issues with this gun in the past. I was shooting typical #8 game...

    AR piston versus DI - an honest debate

    Alright fellow shooters, I know we've been over this topic before, and I know it comes up ad-infinitum on the AR forums. But I'm looking for some intelligent debate based on a couple of factors here. We can all agree that the DI current issue M4 is a fairly reliable weapon I think, properly...

    where to find LONG rifle bags?

    Hi fellow shooters! I am in need of some LONG rifle bags for my benchrest rifles. The 48" bags are just barely cutting it. Anyone make a 52"+ rifle bag? Just want a bag, not a hard case.

    School me on the K31 and 7.5x55 Swiss

    Hi fellow shooters! I was looking around at straight-pull bolt center-fire rifles; I have a Fortner bolt biathlon rifle in rimfire that is a ton of fun to shoot. I really like the unique bolt mechanism. I was reading about the K31 and it sounds like its a pretty accurate rifle for a good...
