    What's the future of .40 S&W?

    +1 for the exact reasons you stated I only have two 40s. Good as a black bear/mountain lion country round & for ammo shortages. Last time around, 9mm disappeared quickly.

    How much would you pay for a used glock 19?

    Around $ 350 for one in good shape. Any more than that, I'll just go with a new gun.

    Charter Arms - Anybody Deal with them on Repairs?

    Thank you everyone for your reply. My relative will be happy to hear that Charter will make it right. I was looking through the box that the gun came in and there was the little card from Davidson's. It said it had to be mailed in within 30 days. (My relative thought he was automatically...

    Charter Arms - Anybody Deal with them on Repairs?

    Hi guys. A relative of mine bought a new production Bulldog a couple years ago on a whim. He's never even fired it. We were going to take it to the range recently, and I checked it out before hand. Timing is off. Cylinder isn't locked up when hammer is cocked and locked all the way back on 4...

    Savage Recall - Anyone here effected by it ?

    http://www.savagearms.com/recall/bmagbolt/ The only Savage rimfire I have is in 22 Mag & I really don't know how the bolt design differs among their rimfire rifles.

    Are there 45 ACP that are fun to fire

    Welding Rod : " OP appears to have vanished. " Don't you just love that ? When someone posts a vaguely worded and not well thought out question, and doesn't return to clear it up. In the meantime people post solutions that may or not be appropriate. But who can tell ? Almost as bad as "What...

    Why are 7.62x39 not common in bolt action rifles?

    I considered a CZ527 in 7.62x39 at one time. (I have AK and SKS rifles in that chambering. I also have CZ rimfire and centerfire bolt rifles and am a big fan.) But, when it came down to it, there was no role for such a rifle that wasn't easily covered by something I already have. IMO this is a...

    USFA Rodeos

    @ 35 Whelen - thanks. I know what you mean, even in guns with similar weights you can feel a difference. It must also come down to how the weight is distributed. Today I handled a New Vaquero 45 Colt in blue with 5 1/2" barrel. It felt very nice in hand, though I wasn't able to load it since...

    USFA Rodeos

    I'm not as experienced with SAA type guns as many guys here. So, I haven't tried out a ton of these guns. (I do have Ruger Blackhawks including a .44 Special Flattop but these have a different feel to them than the SAA type guns.) It's interesting how seemingly small differences can change the...

    USFA Rodeos

    @CraigC - thank you kindly for your detailed reply. I appreciate it. I also contacted a couple of SAA gunsmiths, including Joe Perkins out of Tucson. He said the USFAs are very robust guns and to not be concerned about shooting them. He also said that there's no problem working on them. (I...

    USFA Rodeos

    Thanks guys for your comments. What about the parts issue? Is a good, experienced SAA and cowboy action gunsmith likely going to be able to keep a USFA up and running? Will the lack of parts be a concern? And what parts are most likely to break on these? @35 Whelen - if a guy would have...

    USFA Rodeos

    @35 Whelen - that USFA SAA sounds really nice. I had planned to get a 4 3/4" barrel Pre-War model - but before I had a chance, USFA went out of business. Had wanted to send it to Bob Munden in Montana for an action job, but Bob passed away in 2012. The matte blue Rodeo has a few minor nicks...

    USFA Rodeos

    Hi guys - Way back when I wanted to get a SAA type six gun. I was impressed by their feel & natural pointability. I liked the power of a 45 Colt in a handy 4 3/4" barrel package. (I had/have Ruger Blackhawks & they're good guns, but heavier & not as lively handling as a SAA.) I wanted something...

    Cowboy Ammo Good For Self/Home Defense ?

    Wa 594

    Skribs: " As to 2A? What is a well regulated militia? Did the founders have machine guns in mind? The 2A is outdated and should be repealed, after all, slavery and misogyny were prominent in the original draft and those have changed. The police and military protect you." I respectfully submit...

    " Can someone with a legal background explain to me how such a solid, clear cut language in the 2A (the right of people to bear arms) could be chopped up and cooked at will like a stew by every state?? 50 different concealed permits, so many different byzantine regulations, etc... " That's a...

    Washington State I-594 is Firearm Registration

    One bit of hope we have in WA state is that it takes a motivated group of people to get something passed. Of course, that little punk who did the school shooting didn't help our cause. (And you can bet there will be no inquiries aired as to whether he was on psych drugs or not. Most of these...

    My Granddaughter Wants a Handgun For Her 16th Birthday

    Red Wind: "Maybe. And there are 9 grandsons. The 3 oldest all have been given .22LR Marlins and a Ruger 10/22. I hope the Stock Market doesn't collapse!" With 20 grandkids, you're a wealthy man - - - no matter what the market does ! :)
