    Colorado places to shoot

    Howdy folks, I'm a recent Colorado transplant for Texas, and I'd like to know if any of y'all have found an AWESOME place to shoot. I'm in the Pueblo area, and would love to find some BLM land or something like it that me and a few buddies could shoot on during the day, and camp at night. I know...

    Saiga nine

    So i first laid eyes on the Saiga 9 some time ago... and it was basically like a no chance thing that it would find its way into america. Well apparently Kalashnikov concern is opening up manufacturing here in the good old US of A. Does anyone think that will mean availability of the Saiga 9 for...

    How did I do?

    Saw a guy online today asking 200 bucks for an Ithaca 37 featherweight. With a short barrel and a 7+1 tube. It was manufactured in 1981.. and does slam fire which is fun but terribly inaccurate so I don't think I'll be doing much of that... maybe :)... Anyhow. I took it to the range, lubed it up...

    Scope bite!

    http://www.outdoorhub.com/stories/2015/10/14/10-painful-videos-remind-scope-bite/ I figured I'd share this with y'all to remind you that this can happen to the best of us. Even Les Stroud has been bit. :) Personally this hasn't happened to me yet. Anyone brave enough to give us a good laugh?

    AR newbie

    So, Ill start off by saying I've never really been into AR's at all. They've just never appealed to me in any way. Combine that, with the fact that there's not a lot of 9mm carbine options out there, and the fact that I want one that doesn't look like a child's toy, and you see why I may have...

    "custom!"

    I see this word thrown around quite a bit. Usually when I see it, It makes me smirk, as usually it just means "altered by someone who is not a gunsmith". Custom, to me, means the factory built it for you differently to suit your needs. With the slight exception that you may be handy enough to do...

    Here we go.

    So the previous switchblade post has me really wanting one. I live in Texas so I can carry it. But darnit, like everything else all of the ones folks suggest are from 300 to 100000000 dollars. You can get a quality folder for much less (maybe not super high quality, but a useful tool non the...

    My First Match

    So, on Saturday, I was at the shooting club that I belong to, and I met the man who runs the cowboy hunter small bore rifle competition. We talked a bit and he invited me to come watch the meet on Sunday. I didnt think I was going to compete that day, so I showed up late to watch and see how the...

    Optics for a ruger 2245

    I've Bought a 2245 recently. And installed the Volquartzen accurizing kit. The thing really is a tack driver. Its a hoot to shoot as well. I had a cheap BSA reflex on there.. But im thinking of upgrading to something else. This pistol will no doubt shoot better than I will ever be able to. What...

    Need some 357 handi rifle help

    I cannot get that darn thing to shoot consistently. Ive tried 6 different kinds of .357. and 5 different kinds of 38 and I cant for the life of me get it to shoot straight. My optics (while cheapo bushnell banner) are on tight. I've tried lead ammo and fmj and jhp and sjhp and the whole shabang...

    The Dream

    So I keep having this stupid dream, where I'm in an obvious self defense scenario and the gun will not work, or jams, or doesn't hit, or some kind of failure. Often times I'll clear the obstruction, or fix the problem pull the trigger and it still wont work! I realize this is a pretty unlikely...

    Gun value question

    Is a four digit serial number s&w m36 no dash worth more for being 4 digits? Im looking at one thats 4***. Doesnt have original grips, and the finish aint perfect... (85-90), what would y'all say its worth. I'm looking at a 300 dollar price tag... I'm thinking its fair but I'm no expert on smiths.

    Total Newbie

    Hello fellow high roaders, So I've never reloaded anything aside from just a few .357 loads that were done by hand with one of those lee loaders. and that was basically just for fun. I recently bought an H&R handi rifle in .357 and I find myself wanting to get really tight with it. That...

    357 handi rifle optic options

    Hey there high roaders. Looking for some input from you guys. I picked up a .357 handi rifle before the xmas craze, and now that I'm done with my holiday shopping I'm looking into an optic for it. I'm thinking 100yrds or so is going to be the max distance on this one (I dont know, I might ream...

    Itchy

    ... Many I'm starting to feel itchy... Usually I'm pretty sure of the things I want... But this time I'd like some comments from the peanut gallery!.. I'm thinking about picking up a hand cannon. As it stands I have no practical use for it aside from range fun, this is okay because range fun...

    Ouch ^%$@

    Maybe this is something that's pretty well known. But I didn't know about it until I did it... Anyhow I was walking through my house on Sunday and my friends kid was there. She has toys, and as I'm not accustomed to consistently scanning the floor for children's toys, I stepped on one, and it...

    Lever gun fun

    Ok fellas, I recently got a pre64 Winchester model 94 that has seen WAAYYYYY better days. I've already sanded and removed almost all of the pitting on the the receiver and barrel (some was just too deep), and I've duracoated it. It looks nice and flat, I know its a shame to duracoat something...

    Reccomendations on hand tools.

    So I've done work on A LOT of guns now. All of this with strictly amateur business, but I'm getting pretty good, and pretty confident. I fix and customize my friends guns now, and I'm thinking its probably time to get the APPROPRIATE tools for gunsmithing. I've been through a wealth of punches...
