    Tell me about the craziest issue you've seen with a new gun...

    I bought a Glock G30 off of this board years ago that I couldn't take the slide off of without a ton of fiddling. I know this is a "new" gun problem thread but I'm sure it came from the factory with this problem and was the reason the guy I bought it from was dumping it. I finally figured out...

    .32 acp... deadly

    "Do you run around Thornton Abbey pretending to be Bond with the .32 PPK?" "sometimes, when i am not at home with Pussy Galore..." Excellent reply. :D Interesting thread BTW.

    Have to brag on Alaska.

    I felt a little "dirty" just visiting their site.

    Listen to Joe - "Buy a Shotgun..." - Funny!

    Had to share that one with my buds, good stuff :)

    17hmr POI change 50-100 yards

    Arrg... that would suck if it was the scope but I can't think of anything else. It's a Nikon Buckmaster, certainly not top of the line but should be plenty good enough on a 17hmr. I guess another trip to the range is in order, which does not suck :D. BTW - that is not the bipod we were using...

    17hmr POI change 50-100 yards

    My 12 yr old son and I were having small caliber fun last Saturday. The Savage 93R17 was dead on at 50 yards but when we took it out to 100 the POI changed dramatically high and to the left. The only change was increasing the magnification from around 5 to 9x. Could this have caused the change...

    Could this (or SHOULD this) be buffed out/removed?

    What kind of gun is it? Curious mind and all.....

    Colt DA 1917 45acp

    Very cool gun, thanks for sharing! I would have bought it in a heartbeat for $250, great catch.

    What about Armalite?

    I like mine :D. Haven't had a failure yet.

    Tikka T3

    I just shot my 223 Tikka T3 lite yesterday. I think it's a great gun with the smoothest bolt action in the business, sweet trigger too. I'd like to buy another one in 308.

    for those who appendix carry...

    I carry all my guns (jframe, uspc, colt commander, sig 229 & 245) in that position IWB. I use lots of different holster brands both kydex and leather. I'm a slim built guy so I think that has a lot to do with whether you can carry at the 1:00 position. A full size 1911 is a little long but most...

    Thinking about a Springfield GI

    I had to put some work into my GI to run right. It jammed quite a bit and when it did eject properly the cases often ended up in my forehead. I replaced a bunch of parts but lowering the ejection port and installing an extended ejector were the main fixes. For primary CCW I'd look at a commander...

    Buy a car, get a free gun!

    http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,357183,00.html BUTLER, Mo. — Salesmen at one Missouri car dealership aren't just kicking in a free CD player or factory air: They're offering a free handgun with every purchase. Through the end of the month, car buyers at Max Motors in Butler will have...

    Who else goes to the range alone?

    I don't know, to me it's not a team sport anyway so I don't mind going alone. I know the guys pretty well that work at the range so I get to socialize a bit but the actual shooting part is a zen thing.

    My 460 is ready for sight in

    Holy sh*t! :eek: Now that's what I call a gun :D

    do punisher grips make your 1911 "nerdy"...?

    My eight year old son would love it if I bought a set for one of my 1911's. I think they are kinda cool being a Punisher fan but would have to pass myself. If you like them I say go for it :). I just find it interesting how many people participated in this thread.

    Learn from my mistake! Damaged SP101

    Thanks goodness no one was standing near you when it went kaboom! :eek: +1 on using factory ammo. I've thought about reloading but just the thought of me screwing up (which is likely) has kept me from doing it.

    ruger sp101 vs s&w j-frame

    I carry my sp101 in a Galco iwb holser made for a J frame. The fit is a little tight but by that fact they must be almost the same size. The sp101 is more beefy which I like. Mine has the target grey finish which is very appealing IMO. Another plus for the Ruger are the outstanding stock grips...

    kahr M1 carbine

    Yep, lots of conflicting reports. I bought one of the older models and it's been reliable for me. The mag release is a little sticky but other than that I really can't complain. I would recommend you get a USGI instead though. You can get a good one pretty easy for that price and the parts are...

    Remington 597. Yea or nay?

    I was really hot to get one in 17hmr but decided to pass because of all the conflicting reports I read. There were also a bunch of kabooms I ran across on rimfire central which really scared me. If I was looking to get one in 22lr it might be a different story but my 10/22 runs so well I can't...
