Long story short, I have a friend whose great grandfather handed down a PPK that he took off of a German officer in WWII allegedly. He asked me to do a little research into the gun's history and potential value. The Serial Number, 890425, is a little hard to research, I have found. Is there...

So it has been a while since I wrote on here, but in my time gone, I joined the military. Found out I will be stationed in Nevada after I complete tech school and I thought I would run by you guys and ask in general, how are the laws down there? I turn 21 in August and I plan on getting my...

So today I have a question for you guys regarding my oversized hands and shooting almost any automatic handgun. Some background, I have had minimal training with pistol shooting, I am 19 now and only picked up a handgun about three years ago. I am at the point now where I can hit clay pigeons...

On the 92FS I recently acquired, the hammer doesn't seem to want to stay in the cocked position when being fires, in other words it will only fire in DAO mode. I thought maybe it needed a cleaning, but I noticed that when locking the slide to the rear with and without a mag inserted and...

Hey, so I have finally made up my mind on what I want to do with my life; I am joining the USAF as an aircraft mechanic soon as my semester at my community college is over. I had a quick question though, for those of you who were in the AF. After I finish basic, I know there is a brief period...

Hey everyone, so let me begin by apologizing for the upcoming rant-style write up. I feel like the entire gun community should hear this because it is such a common thing that I run into. So basically, here is today's story.. Where I attend technical school in Northern Idaho, there is a pretty...

Do you guys and gals practice it? I have been trying to practice it every now and then, in the 1940's-ish fassion, one hand over chest, leaned forward looking at target over the top of the gun. Is this a worthwhile thing to practice or do you think I should go back to sights-only shooting?

Hey all, I am in a class that focuses on manufacturing composite parts for the aircraft industry, and for my final project I need to create something, anything out of composites. For those who don't know, composites are material like fiberglas, carbon fiber, kevlar, etc. So my question to you...

Sooo I was really wanting to use a lee loader to make cartridges for my 94 but on Lee's website it says not to use the 30-30 loader with leverguns. Anyone have personal experience? Is the warning only for insurance sake or should I stick to spending 17 bucks for 20 rounds of target practice...

So my mom sent this to me this morning, she is an active protester of the new 'common core' education standards.. Anyway, so basically now they will be actively mining grade school kids for information on their parent's weapons.. 'Just thought I'd pass the word...

Hey, so I am currently talking to a guy abut buying a post 64, pre safety, pre angle eject model 94 Winchester 30/30. It also has a saddle ring (confused as to what exactly that is, maybe a sling mount?). He says it is a somewhat rare gun, and wants $350 for it. Is this a good deal? I would of...

Hey guys so in the fall I am finally heading off to get my AA degree in aircraft maintenance and manufacturing.. I have a dorm there but as expected the stupid no guns allowed rules are in place. Being law abiding I plan to honor their wishes. Now the security office on campus does offer weapon...

Hey guys and girls, quick question. I have recently installed a Monstrum Tactical (lower end company) scope on my hipoint 4095 carbine and I am having issues. It seems that every 20 to 30 rounds I put down the tube the scope moves forward because of recoil. It is highly annoying. Does anyone...

Hey I was 100% positive I could, as a WA state resident purchase a handgun legally in a private party sale until a recent thread I posted yeilded different answers. I am 18 if that helps any. In no RCW's have I found where it says it is illegal. All I want is a 22/45 for crying out loud.

Hey all. I have recently been looking around for a .22 pistol (ammo is no problem for me, I can buy some from my dad haha) but anyhow I am considering the 22.45 among a few others. Only thing is, what model should I go with? There are several different ones out there and depending on if I can...

Well....I really wasn't expecting this on the FIRST DAY of school (senior year here) BUT I walked into my CWA class and the first thing he does is use the NRA as an example of 'mob voters'. He was basically saying that they yell "THEY'RE COMIN FOR OUR GUNS!!" and the donations pour in and he of...

Hey all. I am still trying to decide on what .22 pistol to get. I have made a poll of all the ones I am considering because I just can't make up my mind....LOL

Hey these guns have really caught my eye lately, I never thought I would like a .22 until I shot my grandpa's Ruger Mark III.. Loads of fun. I also have a thing for Sig Sauers and I want to get the best of both worlds, a mosquito. Only problem is, I am 18. Lots of people, I hear, won't sell a...

Hey I am 18 and I want to buy a cal of .40 cal for my Hipoint Carbine online.. first of all, can I legally do this at my age because it is technically pistol ammunition? Second, what all do I have to do in order to purchase, and what are some good companies to buy from?

Hey so as many of you know I have purchased my first gun as a legal adult and it is a 4095 hi point.. Fun gun I invited some friends over for my birthday shoot and they thought it was the best too.. Anyhow messing around with it today after shooting it two days ago, I noticed something and I am...
