    Please help ID this old Savage pistol

    A friend's daughter inherited this Savage from a relative and I'm trying to find more about it. I do not have access to the gun as it's several states away. With Savage on the grip I'm assuming it's one of theirs. I'd be interested in Model #, caliber, and possible age. Thanks for any help.

    28 Gauge Shotshell Cuff

    My Brother in Law is looking for a cuff to hold five or six 28 Gauge shells for his 1100. I see lots of 12 and 20, but no 28. Any ideas? Leather would be great, but elastic or similar might be good too. Any good sources? Thanks.

    New Sig P320 X VTAC in the house

    I was at the LGS shooting the breeze and spotted the above pistol on the counter. Looked nice so I had them set it aside while I considered a possible trade. Went home to get it, XD-40SC, and made the deal. The trigger is no 1911, but pretty good over all. I like flat triggers on pistols and...

    NFA AOW transfer to California resident?

    An In-Law has a .410 shot pistol, Game Getter, that was registered during an amnesty period many years ago. AOW I believe but I've not seen his paperwork. He's in his mid 80's and plans to leave this item to his oldest son or give it to him in the somewhat near future. His son lives in the LA...

    Holosun Red Dot Sights

    Anyone have anything good, or bad, to say about their tube type red dot sights. Thinking of one for my newly assembled AR9.Mostly a range toy, but might use it as PCC in IDPA. I have a Just Right Carbine in 45/9 with a TruGlo holographic sight but wanted to know about the Holosun units. Thanks

    Hornady LnL Press Adaptor

    I've got a Hornady LnL Iron Press, which is a single stage equipped for their quick change bushings. I'm getting into more precision reloading and have been shown that even with the quick change bushing snugged down there is some wiggle possible. Does anyone make an adapter that would let me...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Barrel Swap

    Has anyone done a barrel swap on the RPR? I've got two, one in 6.5CM and the other in 308. Thinking it might be nice to swap the 308 for 6CM so I could give that a try. Are there barrels available? Any advice? Thanks.

    Ultra sonic cleaners

    Thinking of purchasing one for cleaning suppressors and gun parts as well as assembled pistol slides etc. My question is are they safe to use with fiber optic or tritium sights installed? I'm thinking yes on fiber optic, and probably no on tritium. Am I correct? School me.

    RCBS Bullet Seating Die Problem

    OK, maybe it's not a problem, but it might be. Just started reloading 6.5 Creedmoor with Hornady ELD 140g bullets. I find that the bullet seating die leaves a small ring around the bullet about 3/16" below the top of the jacket. Apparently there's an edge inside the seating stem that...

    32 Guage Sub Tubes

    My brother in law is a shell collector and shooter. He's got the bug to shoot 32 Guage after he found the shells are available. Does anyone know if sub caliber tubes are available? He has shotguns in everything from 12 to 28 plus 410 so host gun options are wide open. Thanks.

    Turret press compatible with Hornady LnL bushings

    I've been loading 308 rifle cartridges on my Hornady LnL progressive. But now I want to get a little more precise and bought a RCBS Chargemaster combo. The LnL is a little inconvenient if you're not using their powder measure, so I'm looking for something else. I'm willing to batch process by...

    Ultrasonic cleaner for suppressor?

    Anyone having success cleaning units that can't be disassembled? I have a HF unit using Hornady gun parts cleaner and it doesn't seem to do much. I admit that part of the issue is probably the HF cleaner itself, but I'm wondering if a better unit, such as Hornady's might provide better results?

    RCBS Chargemaster or Hornady

    I'm looking to automate my power charging system for rifle loads. Right now I'm loading 308 and beginning 6.5 Creedmoor. Currently using Varget. I like the RCBS unit, but I've seen some reviews on Amazon saying that it's going to be discontinued and/or RCBS won't repair of of warrenty. Price...

    Air rifle suppressor legal question

    At a gun show today a seller had a pre charged pneumatic air rifle with a suppressor mounted. OK, there are several on the market with suppressors. But this one was easily removed by simply unscrewing it from the barrel. I asked how that was legal and was told the "fellow who makes them says...

    Ruger Precision Rifle, which caliber?

    I'm looking at the RPR for general target shooting out to 600 yards and 1000 after our new range is built. Evaluating 6.5 Creedmoor vs. 243. I've read that 6.5 brass has limited life as do the barrels. Not sure about 243 brass and barrels. I do plan to reload for either one. I can see...

    Case Prep Center Recommendations

    Looking for a motorized case prep center such as the Hornady, RCBS, Lyman or Frankford Armory. I've read the reviews on Amazon, but they seem to vary a lot. I guess folks have different standards and expectations...

    Savage 10 BA trigger issue

    My two year old Savage 10BA with accu-trigger has not been shot a lot, maybe 200 rounds. Sometimes the "safety" on the trigger locks up and will not move. This of course means you can't pull the actual trigger to fire the shot. Elevating the bolt handle, but not pulling the bolt back, then...

    Mech Tech Carbine Conversion

    Anyone running one of these? I'm considering one for my 1911 frame or for my XDm. They are available for Glock as well. Can be had with fixed or collapsible stocks as well as various rails and sights.

    Looking for a Sig P238/P938 grip screw

    Well, though either poor maintenance or negligence I've lost one of my grip screws. I know I can order from various places, but with shipping and all its more than I'd prefer to pay. So if anyone has one screw they'd like to sell cheap please let me know. I don't care if it's black or...
