    770 or american

    I just got lucky and my dad said he would go in half on a 400 or under rifle for my birthday. The 2 i was debating were the ruger american and the Remington 770. I looked at both and they looked very similar and felt similar. Both were also within 50 bucks. also they had 30-06 and 308. my...

    M855 - Who's Scrambling To Buy?

    No, I like Independence personally. I'm not a fan of steel core due to the target damage. i like 55gr mostly and its cheaper. on a different note though it still pisses me off on the ammo regulation. I dont believe that they have the right to ban it. If they were going after tracers and said it...

    The inexpensive firearm for defence line of reasoning....

    Im certainly no expert, but i would say, use what you think is best. dont forget to think about your surroundings. for example if you live in a duplex,a high powered rifle such as a FN FAL may not be a good idea. if you have kids you may want a shotgun or judge with shot. if you live on a farm...

    Revolver vs. Auto loader

    sgt127, thank you very much. that is alot to think about. I have never turned my firearm upside down, did soapy water or press it to a target. i did find out though if i stick a hollow point with a large hollow section, it will catch the feed ramp, but polymer tips work fine. as some of the...

    Revolver vs. Auto loader

    i agree it is a personal choice and it is a stretch in caliber as caliber is not very important to me i was thinking more on functionality like jamming and other issues each type possesses. i feel comfortable with both, but it needs to be very rugged and i am moving to a relatively bad area.

    Revolver vs. Auto loader

    I am moving to TN next month and have a CCW card. I know that there are pros and cons to auto loaders and revolvers. currently i am thinking of using an FNX40 but was considering a snub nose .357 also (i know ill loose energy and power with the snubbie .) i was thinking about capacity of a...

    What's the dumbest thing you ever did with a gun ?

    Unfortunately I have a couple. when i was a kid, i found out that my mothers sewing pins fit perfectly in the barrel of my pellet gun..... those things screamed out of that barrel and lots of pigeons died that day. fortunately mom was not mad because the pigeons were crapping on everything and...
