    Do you feel more sentimental towards metal guns?

    As time goes by, I've sold off guns that I didn't like - both metal and polymer. Ruger SP101, LC9 and LCP, S&W M34 snub, Sig SP2022 9mm, Glock 17L, 21, 23, and 41, CZ75B, Colt Govt Series80 in stainless. All good guns that I didn't enjoy enough to keep. Kept Ruger 22/45, S&W 637, 686+Pro...

    Exceeded Expectations?

    I bought a Savage MkII Youth model for the grandkids to shoot, and put a Walmart Simmons 4x on it. Short stock and short barrel - darn thing shoots as well as guns that cost 3x as much!

    Shooting "guilt" is finally getting to me...

    It distresses me to see someone so thoroughly prepared for uncontested defeat.

    Shooting "guilt" is finally getting to me...

    After the last two panics, moving to property I can shoot at, and the California Legislature deciding they would require a background check on all ammo sales, the wife and I decided we'd not get caught short ever again. We budgeted some of our fun money to buy ammo. When we got a little extra...

    Anyone helping to ease ammo demand?

    My youngest (39) didn't decide he wanted handguns until the panic. He bought a 9mm and a 45acp from a friend of his, then discovered the complete lack of available ammo. At Thanksgiving, he left with 9mm. At Christmas, 45acp. He hasn't got the second gun out of jail yet. After Obama, I keep...

    Are you old enough to remember when firearms were proudly displayed?

    We moved to a mountain community a half-hour east of Bakersfield almost seven years ago. We brought along two gun safes, but wanted a good old-fashioned gun cabinet to add to the home office. One day I ran across one on Craigslist for $150. We went to town to look at it, and found a 12 year...

    Where's the ammo? American Rifleman article

    A couple of years back, the California Legislature prompted the wife and I to reconsider our meager ammo supply. We bought a large RSC and shelved it to be able to stack ammo boxes three deep, and set aside funds to take advantage of the glut of low-priced ammo available at the time. We targeted...

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    Bought an Advantage Arms .22lr conversion for my G19. I have a couple of .22lr conversions for favorite pistols: a Kadet for my CZ75SA, a Kimber for my 1911s, and I had an AA for my G34 (they are now with my shooting buddy). After the previous panic, I bought a lot of 22lr ammo and I can shoot...

    Rimfire scope recommendations

    I've gradually changed over to scopes with adjustable objectives on every rifle I target shoot with. Over a dozen are 22LR. Grandson's 10/22 Compact has a Simmons 3-9x32 22Mag AO, which is discontinued. Cheap, but good enough and he's a bit hard on stuff. Nikon is gone, still have a pair of...
