Hey everyone. Soliciting hunting rifle recommendations for my teenage son. Rifle will be intended for deer and hogs. My son is 15, about 5'5, 120 lbs. I expect he'll get quite a bit bigger. He's a tad recoil-sensitive, but nothing he can't overcome. I'm thinking of something in either a .270 or...

Hi everyone. I present a question to this highly knowledgeable community. And it is this: if you could have that one go-to .357 revolver, which one would it be? Now, in processing the answer to this question, allow me to add some context. What .357 would it be if you found yourself having to...

Hello all. Few questions about the Dan Wesson 715 stainless: 1) is it still in production? 2) what's the overall quality? 3) how does the trigger compare to other better quality .357's (686, GP100, Python)? Any info would help. Thanks! :thumbup:

Good morning. I need a little guidance. I'm very close to "pulling the trigger":D on a new revolver purchase. I've narrowed my search to the Python and the King Cobra Target. But my difficulty is that I have to order one without the customary tried and true method of placing the firearm in my...

Hi all. Long time off this forum. I'm looking for a recommendation for a new progressive press. My son and I are getting into some target shooting and I think it would be a great Father-Son endeavor. We'll be reloading mainly handgun caliber ammo, but I imagine a machine that can handle a rifle...

I know that this topic has been discussed at great length, but in my selfishness I wanted to make a few points and obtain your feedback. Having practiced with bird shot I'm surprised at how much damage it does at close range. I've also watched a few internet videos that show what BS can do...

Okay gents, here's a hypothetical. I seek your input: Suppose a scenario where you are confronted by multiple people, angry, excited, and ready to do you, your loved ones and neighbors physical harm. Let's suppose 5 hostile persons. You confront this group in an open area at about 10-20...

Gents: I'm looking for recommendations on a quality AR optic. I'm not overly concerned about a CQC optic, although I do want something that will allow me relatively acceptable quick acquisition over short distances. I also want something that will allow accurate shooting in the 300-400 yard...

Gents: I have a little bit of play, or wobble, between an upper and lower. Nothing terrible, just a little bit of side-to-side wobble. What's the remedy, if anything? Thanks.

Do I need a Castle nut on a rifle length set up? I'm using a Magpul fixed stock. Thanks.

What's the difference? I often see this terminology, but don't know the difference. Thanks!

Gents: Okay, I'm building my "Christmas AR". I'm presently taking suggestions for an upgraded trigger group under $125. I don't care to go really high end, as I want to still keep the firearm as a "duty ready" long arm, but I want something improved over typical stock triggers for precision...

Gents: Need some recommendations for a quality stock and tube kit for an 18 inch middy. Parameters: 1. I prefer adjustable, but will consider fixed. If you think I should go fixed, please sell me on it, 2. Want a quality wobble free stock that can give me an acceptable weld, 3...

Gents: Does anyone have any experience with a company called Hardened Arms? They appear to build a lot of their AR stuff in-house and their pricing is very reasonable. Any helpful input? Thanks!

Gents: Anyone have any experience with Young Manufacturing BCG's? I'm looking at the basic AR15 BCG for about $150. Also, any opinions on BCM's basic BCG? I got some info that they're not much better than a run of the mill $90 BCG. Is that misinformation? Thanks.

How com the Marines stuck with the M16? Is it because of the 20 inch barrel? What's the advantage of that over the M4 in combat?

Gents: I'm thinking about a 20 inch Green Mountain barrel for my Ruger 10/22. Will I need a gunsmith for this, or is it something a handy bloke like myself can do? Also, any other thoughts on this topic will be well appreciated. Thanks!

Gents: I'm seeking opinions as to a quailty, tough trigger group. Something that is smoother and lighter than you're average single stage, and which can stand up to abuse. Any thoughts?

Gents: Anyone ever place a fixed stock on an 18 inch AR (barrel)? Any reason not to do that? Thanks!

Good morning, So what are the real world effects of chrome lining on the accuracy of an AR15? I'm talking at least a minimum of 100 yards. I'm seeing a lot of manufacturers offering unlined barrels. Thanks!
