    Anyone ever hear of GI Jeff's in Daytona Beach?

    Has anyone ever seen or done business with a store in Daytona called GI Jeff's? It is a surplus store that sells firearms in Daytona. They have a gun on Gunbroker I am interested in, and they have a good rating there, but I was wondering if anyone had ever done business with them and whether...

    size comparison of Glock 19 and Sig 229

    According to the company websites, G19 has a thickness of 1.18" and Sig is 1.5". Does the Sig feel that much thicker than the G19? I am surprised there is that much difference.

    M855 verus XM855 versus IMI M855

    I have a couple of questions about this ammo. I have seen what appears to be M855 ammo (62g green tip) 5.56 ammo listed on the ammoman.com and ammotogo.com websites, but it is usually listed as XM855. What is the deal with this, and how are they selling military ammo? I thought selling...

    10mm Powder choices

    I am about to load a bunch of 180g FMJ 10 mm ammo. I am either going to use Blue Dot or AA#9. It looks like #9 gives the lowest pressures and the highest velocities. Is AA#9 the best choice for 10mm or am I overlooking something else?

    S&W Model 22-4 Thunder Ranch 45 ACP

    I have an opportunity to trade for one of these. It appears unfired, and comes with all the factory papers/box/etc. It has the internal lock of course, and does not have the gaudy gold Thunder Ranch logo on the side of the frame. How much are these worth? Would a straight trade for a...

    What happened to 351 Winchester?

    I have never seen nor shot a 351 Winchester, but it sounds like an interesting roung. A 180g bullet going at 1800 fps, basically a hot 357 magnum, but better suited for auto loaders because it is semi rimmed (or rimless?). Why was the M1 Carbine not chambered in this caliber? It seems like...

    Red Dots or other Illuminated scopes on hunting rifles?

    I started a different thread about putting Aimpoints on hunting rifles, and that thread has drifted off into a discussion of military guns, so I would like to limit discussion in the thread to use of red dots and scopes with illuminated reticles on bolt action hunting rifles only. Here is my...

    Want to put an Aimpoint on a Ruger rifle.

    I am looking to place an Aimpoint 9000L or 9000SC on a Ruger M77 rifle. I intend to mount it with 2 rings, in the usual configuration a scope is mounted (ie, not a scout style). The 9000 SC is shorter than the 9000L. The Aimpoint website suggests using the 9000SC for short action rifles...

    Questions about Incorporation

    As I understand the concept of incorporation, it is the application of the Bill of Rights to state governments and laws. From a historical perspective, the BOR was put into place to protect the states and people from intrusion by the federal government, and was therefore intended as a...

    Cylinder fell out of my 629 while cleaning...

    I shot about 50 rounds of Winchester White Box 240g JSP's through my S&W 629 this afternoon. Everything went fine. Once home, I cleaned it. When I opened the cylinder latch, the crane and cylinder fell out of the gun. I then noticed a loose screw on the side of the frame opposite the...
