I've never worn a shoulder holster before, but want to get one to wear around the house and out in the yard in the summer. Summer clothing is too light for my normal pocket carry, so I want to give a shoulder holster a try. What is the best budget shoulder holster, in your opinion, and the...

How to repair a 1903 Colt .32 Hammerless mag? Its not an original one, its a repop from Brownells I think, but it is stuck and I can't get more than one round into it. I took it apart once already from the top but I think the follower is bent slightly wrong, or else the spring is not set...

A few years back I converted my Saiga Sporter 7.62x39 to an AK-47 pattern rifle by buying a conversion kit, pistol grip, and a TACTICAL QUAD-RAIL. I had a gunsmith assemble it all. Now I want to take off the quad rail and pistol grip only keeping the the Saiga able to accept standard AK...

It's been down for two days. Anyone know?

My WW2 era M1 Carbine shoots nice groups, and is pretty accurate except it shoots high and right. I want to get it so that is accepts soft point ammo and is correctly zeroed. I bought A LOT of PP soft point round nose .30 carbine ammo only to find that it wont feed into. FMJ ammo feeds well...

I have been wanting to get an AK clone so I can use the less expensive 7.62x39 ammo. I like that the Century Arms Centurion 39 Sporter Rifle is American made. The price is up to $960 now. Has anyone got one, if so how do you feel about this rifle? I want one for target shooting and a...

I took my brand new out-of-the-box Glock 26 to the range, with 2 mags loaded with PMC 9 mm hollow point. I racked the first round into the chamber and fired--the hammer fell but there was no discharge. I racked the round out and looked at it--no evidence of any firing pin strike. I did this 2...

I am still trying to learn the in's and out's of ammo. I have Glock 17 and a Glock 26, and looking to buy the best 9 mm. ammo for self defense. What in your opinion would be the best? Speers gold dot 115 gr GDHP or Doubletap bonded 115 gr JHP? Nosler Match Grade Ammunition 9mm Luger 115...

Seems like ammo is hard to find now, with most being listed as "out of stock" at the various websites. Can you recommended websites where ammo availability is searchable? The one I am using now is http://www.gunbot.net/ Are there other websites that are good? How are shooters finding...

I am getting a Glock 17 and bought 500 rounds of Speer 9mm -115-Grain-P-Gold-Dot-Hollow-Point. Anyone have any experience with that ammo, for home defense? is 115 grain too light do you think? Please give my your views since this is my first foray into 9 mm territory. Thanks by the...

What is the most inaccurate pistol you own? Why do you keep it around? I have a 1903 .32 Colt Hammerless semi auto. I can barely hit the target 50% of the time from 15 feet and I am not a bad shot. It is more inaccurate even than than my Ruger .39 LCR snubby. But I keep it since it is my...

I have a standard Springfiled M1A rifle. I want to get a good scope for it so I can use it to reach out accurately at long range, but I am on a budget really, and can't afford an expensive scope. Any suggestions on a good quality but less expensive scope in the $200-300 range max, less if...

I have an old M1 Carbine but it seems temperamental and doesn't always work well. What is the best modern carbine that's always going to work well and uses common ammo, interchangeable with a pistol, like .357 or .38 .45 of .45 or .40 or 9 mm? Any thoughts?

What is the best survival/prepper forum?--one that is as good in survival as THR is in guns?

I bought some .225 gr Buffalo Bore hardcast wadcutters as a personal defense load based on their website description, but after receiving a few boxes and doing some research am i right that that these wadcutters are designed for target practice? And that my better self defense round is the...

I picked up some Prvi Partizan (Serbian) .308 Winchester 180 gr soft points, for my Springfield M1A rifle. Are these hunting rounds, good for pig, deer, antelope, black bear, etc?

I was cleaning my Henry Goldenboy .17 HMR and was using a J. Dewley rod and bore brush. I inserted it and it bent and snapped right at the top of the barrel. There is not enough left to grab, just a few millimeters and there is a 2 inch wire brush in the barrel. How can I get it out, there is...

Ever since I got the CMP Catalog I've been thinking about getting a M1 Garand. I can get a pristine condition refurbished one for $995..........What do you think? I dont actually need one since I've already got a M1A, but I like those Garands--I used to drill with one back when I was a...
