    Ruger 1911 Target 9MM

    I just bought a used 9mm target to try and was impressed with how it shot! I like how the added weight helps to control the recoil. The trigger breaks at a clean 4 lbs. and the front sight has been changed to a tritium night sight. It also a larger back strap with a mag well for faster reloads...

    How often do you change your batteries?

    I started going through changing the batteries in my sights and lasers yesterday and was wondering how often others change batteries. I try and change mine out every year to keep them fresh as you never know when you might need them.

    Ruger MAX-9 users?

    Please list your likes and or dislikes on this new offering from Ruger. I have not had any range time with mine yet. I like the way it feels in my big hand and the sights seam really easy to use and it points like I like a small pistol to find the target. What holster are you using and why?

    RIA VR 80 Thoughts

    Any one else running one of these? Mine has the 20" hand guard and thumb hole but stock. I put a Holosun 510C sight on mine and really like it. I ran a box of 3" through it yesterday and it ran fine. I need some more rounds trough it as I am still having some cycle issues with some 2 3/4"...

    A friend just called and asked what I know about this caliber. He has a chance to buy it. He said he shot a deer with it years ago and was very happy with how quickly it put the deer down. Any thoughts on this gun or caliber would be appreciated.

    Muzzle brake/recoil reduction?

    I just bought a Ruger American Predator in 6.5 CM and was wondering if I add a Muzzle brake if it will result in similar recoil to my RPR in 6.5? I know the RPR is much heavier and was wondering if anyone has added any weight to the buttstock and if so what and how?

    Ruger American Predator 6.5 CM

    Wow what a good shooting new rifle! I found one at a really good price at Rural King for $379.99. I lapped the barrel before I shot it and mounted a Hawke 6X24 scope I got on sale a couple years ago. I shot some Hornady ELD M 140 gr and first shot was off the edge of the target. I made the...

    Ruger American Predator mag well conversion?

    I just purchased a Ruger American Predator in 6.5 CM and was thinking it would be great if I could change out the current mag well to accept the same P mags I use in my RPR. Does anyone know if this is possible or can we take it to Ruger as a new idea.

    6MM ARC caliber

    I see where Hornady just announced a new caliber that looks very interesting that will work in an AR 15. It looks interesting on the videos for anyone wanting more down range out of their AR 15 without jumping up to the AR 10. Very low recoil also adds to my interest. Anyone have one yet and...
