A question about Nighthawk/Korth revolvers: Just saw the latest mag. ad about their partnership with Korth. So I looked up their website and was glad I was sitting down when I saw the prices. The Mongoose .357 Mag goes for $3700. But then I saw that shiny addition to the muzzle of the barrel...

Hi, all. Take a look at this article about a company in Utah which is trying to make guns more "fun". The article appears in our local paper, though it originated from the WaPo. If one tries to bring up the website advertising the subject/product, it is no longer on line. Wonder why.

I have a Crosman 600 CO2 pistol, which I have owned for 60 years (!). After replacing the main seal recently, it shoots like new, which is phenomenal for a CO2 handgun. Now, though, I want an air rifle. I don't want PCP if I can avoid it, but I don't know enough about the offerings available in...

I tried the search but got nothing. Has anyone knowledge of, handled one, owns one, of the air gun in a 1934 movie "The Thin Man", known as "Swiss Tell 1 Air Pistol"? It's the one Nick Charles uses to shoot out a few balloons and a window.

I have not noticed any mention of them on this forum, but has anyone else tried the CCI "Quiet .22LR" ammo? The earlier version had 40 gr. bullets and velocity of about 710 fps. That's OK by me, to use in a .22 revolver to get squirrels. I got low of stock in them and asked my LGS to get me a...

Nothing important, but I am wondering about firearms design/history a little bit. Specifically, why are SA revolvers equipped with a loading gate, but DA ones have a swing-out cylinder? Is it simply tradition to do it that way (even on brand-new models), or do there actually exist SA's with...

While doing a little research about .22LR, I came across the wikipedia page devoted to it, and found this amazing story referred to, and then the online story about it. https://www.ammoland.com/2017/06/bella-twin-the-22-used-to-take-the-1953-world-record-grizzly-and-more/ How many are...

Came to me in a flash There I stood, running my well-used .357 cases through my Lyman "M" bellmouthing die. Weeding through all of them for mouth cracks, and discarding about 10% of the nickel-plated ones, as usual. When it hit me: all the cases (both plain and plated) must conform to both of...

Now that both NY and Ill. are trying to pass new laws requiring gun owners to reveal their social media accounts, I wonder how people feel about all the threads which generally go: "Show us all your revolvers, Smiths, rifles, what you just bought, etc., etc." Perhaps it would be wiser to be less...

I did a search but did not find what I am looking for: Does the new Kimber K6s DASA have the same trigger feel as the original DAO? Or, is it different because of the inclusion of SA (like a Ruger SP101, for instance)? The original Kimber offering was proud of its "no-staging" trigger pull...

Anybody yet see this new revolver, which I saw on the Gunblast ShotShow video? http://stdgun.com/ It's called a "Volleyfire", a double-barrel .22 WMR revolver (!!!). I have zero opinions about it, except that I think the barrels are 'way too short to get the benefit of a full cartridge burn.

This is why hunter-safety courses are required/held in so many states: https://www.foxnews.com/us/former-lsu-football-player-shot-by-dog-while-hunting-has-leg-amputated Isn't the first rule that a firearm be unloaded until ready to use (while hunting)?

Anybody else notice that the "firearmstalk" website is non-functional? Been that way for several days; all that appears is a general, unusable list of their topics. No graphics, and no easy way to post anything. Not a great website/forum, but it was something for some people to explore. Hate to...

Did I just have a brain fart, or did this actually happen? A "school resource officer" fired their weapon inside a school? https://www.alexandriava.gov/police/info/news_policedisplay.aspx?id=102771 Does the word "training" bring anything to mind?

Looking for some possible info/leads. Does/did any firearms maker offer a detachable box magazine, lever-action rifle? Almost something like the venerable Savage 99, but with a detachable magazine. I used to own a 99, but no longer, since it was .300 Savage caliber, and I would prefer a .45-70...

Before I make a somewhat long drive to what is called an "authorized" dealer, can anyone tell me what is what with the T/C Contender line of rifles/pistols? Specifically the G2 line. The Thompson website states (implies?) that the product line is still viable, but I can find little info about...

I'm looking for an "ultimate" 9mm target pistol, semi-auto. The requirements: Must be 9mm Luger, the sights must be fixed to the frame and not any moving component (like the slide), sights must be adjustable, the slide and frame must be some type of steel (no aluminum or plastic), the magazine...

Haven't asked for info here for a while, but here goes: A special, old friend has an H&R top-break revolver ("belly gun") chambered in .32 Short, which we believe is more-accurately known as .32 S&W. NOT the .32 Long. While he is sometimes able to find pre-loaded cartridges, those events are...

Nothing important here, just an interesting case failure and a question. The pic shows a nickle-plated .357 mag case, which had been reloaded 15-20 times, and which failed inside my SP's cylinder. A relatively mild ".38 spl. +P" load, which went off normally, and was noticed only during...

Anybody have one of these? I am less than satisfied with the "jewelry scale" I have been using, because it drifts and doesn't instantly respond to trickling. Does anyone have one of these RCBS units, who would like to comment on its performance? I already have some RCBS tools, which I value...
