Hey guys I'm just wondering if you are required by law to have your BATFE forms and tax stamp before you purchase a threaded barrel for a weapon (or simply purchase a new weapon which is suppressor ready). I don't imagine this is a problem but I know it can get dicey with things like SBRs...

Does anyone here own a CZ Shadow 2? I am very much a CZ guy, and wanted to know how people think it stacks up next to the CZ P09. It's more of a competition or match gun if I'm not mistaken, but I'm never opposed to adding another CZ to the collection. Any thoughts, comparisons, impressions, or...

I had an idea that it would be kind of nice to put a Tapco AK trigger into my AR 15 (or in a future build). I wanted to know if this is even mechanically possible. I know that the trigger systems on these two rifles are pretty different but could this be a custom job for the gunsmith or is this...

My dad and I are thinking of setting up his old reloading bench and getting into that, but I had a fairly general question. I have for a while now been looking for 124gr 9mm FMJ, but the only 9mm I can find in that grain is JHP (usually +P at that), not that theres anything wrong with that but...

I've seen official Glock stainless slides, but they are exceedingly difficult to find if it isn't already on the gun you're buying. I have only been able to find aftermarket ones by third party manufacturers and they come devoid of sights and other necessaries. My questions are: 1) Is there...

I've been after one of these for sometime but I understand it falls under the SBR category. I have several questions on this matter: 1) Is the MPL also under the SBR umbrella? 2) As these are discontinued models, what is the availability of these items? 3) Do either the MPK or MPL...

I read this and thought he makes some good points. This is a well written, fact based, article that examines both sides valid points while also identifying their flaws and misconceptions. I wish I heard this tone coming from a more major source but there you have it. I've been forwarding this...

I know, I know we all keep our HD pistol in arms reach but let's just play with the idea that for some reason you cannot access your home defense weapon in time. What other weapons, tools, objects, or skills would you use to protect yourself. I know for my part I would go for my SOG Seal Pup...

I remember in the early 2000s H&K saying that it's absurd couch of a gun, the OICW (Objective Individual Combat Weapon if I remember right...), would be the new US service rifle and was the wave of the future. If my memory serves me the gun had a 5.56mm lower portion which accepted the standard...

I have for a long time been interested in bullpups. I like the AUG a lot, love the Israeli TAR and would love to try out a FAMAS. I'm not big on the SA80, or the Chinese ones. My question is, are any of these (TAR, AUG, FAMAS) made by companies other than their original manufacturer. Kind of...

I bought a new Sig SP2022 a few months back and it is having some trouble feeding the first round of a magazine. I can always get it to feed properly if I pull the slide back and lock it, then drop it using the slide stop. However, if I slingshot it or pull it back from it's starting position it...

I just bought a Walther PPK today and wanted to put an open thread out there for anyone to share experiences, problems, recommendations, and anything else that I need to know about this pistol. I know that +P is a no-no, but are there other things I should be aware of? Please keep it...

I really liked the full size Cougar in .45 but now it's next to impossible to find one. Does anyone know why they were discontinued? I'm assuming it had something to do with the PX4 entering production... Bonus question: I know that the Cougar is made under license by a Turkish company now...

I was recently shooting some of the 'Hornady critical defense' .357 mag rounds and it was having a lot of problems. The base of the cartridge was expanding and locked up the cylinder on my 686.. So I was unable to eject the rounds by hand, and ended up having to grab the cleaning rod off my AK...

I am interested in picking up a Galil rifle (.223 preferably) but don't know who the best non IMI manufacturer is. I know the 'Golani Sporter' exists, but does anyone have firsthand experience with this? I was also looking at the South African Vektor R4, although they seem to be harder to find...

So I just want to open by saying I know it's smart to avoid the 'novelty' ammo like the Hornady Zombie stuff (which sucks because it's basically the same as their critical defense ammo, just green and in a stupid box) and other fancy things. Depending on the weather and where I'm going for...

Does anyone know of any good places to shoot that are less than 2 hours away from Portland OR? We have a lot of good mountains and quarries that I like going to when I have enough time and people to make the trip worthwhile, but I'm tired of spending 5 hours in the car (round trip) just to be...

I was wondering if anyone had attended any of the training programs offered by Craft International (the company started by Chris Kyles) out there in either TX or AZ. I was interested in the rifle and pistol training programs, they seem like a good deal for the price, especially learning from...

Does anyone know who a good reliable lever action shotgun would be made by? I'm willing to go either 12 or 20 gauge, this would be more of a plinking/target gun. I already have a Winchester 1200 for home defense (it's a beast I know, but it does the job).

Hey guys, I bought a 7mm Rem-Mag Weatherby Vanguard from a friend of mine who is about half a foot shorter than I am. I can manipulate the rifle well but my face is too close to the scope (not idiot mark close, but a little close for comfort) because he modified this thing to fit someone of his...
