A little background first. I've been looking at ARs for a couple of years now. But the right one didn't come into my life until this month. I was about to pull the trigger on purchasing a Stag Arms 2TL left-handed "Tactical" model, but was putting the purchase off until I had some other...

Saw a lightly used P220 in my local dealer's case today. I'm having trouble finding out any info about this specific variant though, hoping that one you might have more info. It has the standard side mounted decocker, and a frame rail. The distinguishing feature is the frame is metal, but...

http://www.myfoxaustin.com/myfox/pages/InsideFox/Detail?contentId=1405892&version=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=VSTY&pageId=5.7.1 Fox news in Austin aired a segment on Women and Guns that actually managed to be fairly positive. They did give the "other side" a chance to comment, but was pretty...

A couple of months back there were a couple of reports of THR members with trigger reset problems on their P45s. My gun dealer has also heard "reports" of frame cracking on some of them, but no confirmation. I'm interested in a small .45 caliber pistol, and I am a very happy owner of a K9, so...

What can you tell me about these? I know that the Model 64 was a specific variant of the model 94 but can't find much info besides that. I'm looking at one in the local shop. But know almost nothing about them. Here's the particulars on the one in the shop: Winchester Model 64...

So I went to the gun shop, to trade in a handgun that I didn't like that much, and there on the wall was a KelTec SU-16 Charlie model. Since I've been researching them for awhile, and the last one only stayed on the wall for a day, I snatched it up and applied the value of the trade-in towards...

I've been looking at an XD45 it's an attractive handgun, but I'm not sure if I want the Standard or Tactical model. Well there's two of them at my local shop, a 4" Standard and a 5" Tactical Bi-Tone. I'm normally a black pistol kinda guy, but something about that Bi-tone calls to me. I'm...

If you were going to buy a semi-auto version of one of the following WW2 era submachine guns, which would you choose and why? Feel free to make your decision on aestetic, economic or historical reasons as long as you explain them. :) 1. PPSh-41 2. Soumi M-31 3. PPS-43 Tex

Okay I've searched the forum for info on both red dot and holographic sights, but I think I'm more confused now then I was before... :) I'm got an Ultimak picatinny mount on my AK47. For those who aren't familiar with it it's a replacement for the gas tube that clamps onto the barrel for...

I've been toying with getting a snubby, but it's been a couple of years since I shot one. I do remember that accuracy wasn't great for me, which I suspect was equal parts trigger control and sight radius. I also remember it being a handful with .38 so since I want to ability to shoot .357 for...

Forgive me if this has already been posted, but I haven't seen it here yet, so I'll share it. I found this little comic gem elsewhere and knew the appropriate people to share it with. The problem is I can easily imagine myself doing something this dumb. Is it a guy thing? Tex

http://www.gunblast.com/images/SHOT2006/Day2/DSC08010.jpg Caption for the picture reads, "Winchester Model 1895 Saddle Ring Carbine in .30-'06." Any idea who makes this? The only commercial 1895 I have seen is the .405 takedown model and it's a little rich for my blood. I was saying to...

I was thumbing through the latest CDDN catalog and a revolver caught my eye. Taurus Tracker 4" Stainless .45ACP 5-shot Full lug barrel Ribber Grips Factory Ported Anyone have any experience with this firearm in this chambering? I've seen alot of pro and anti Taurus opinions but that seems to...

Like Garrison I've never been hunting, not from any dislike of it, but I grew up in a non-shooting family and never had the opportunity when growing up. Now I have the opportunity if I want it, but haven't ever been that interested. But reading this quote, I felt my nascent interest in going...

For all you CAS folks (Cowboy Action Shooters) out there. I attended my first local SASS club match in August, and today I finally shot a stage clean! Bonus, my time wasn't even that slow. As a matter of fact I shot 3 out of 7 stages clean today. :) I am stoked, talk about a feeling of...

Had my first squib today. :what: Not sure I liked the experience. I was shooting my .357 Stampede and heard a muffled bang. Stopped and thought, "hmmm that didn't sound right." Waited a couple of seconds, then opened the loading gate and tried to pull the hammer to half cock so I could...

Look what came home with me... can I keep it? :) It's a gun that only a shooter can love, no collectors need apply. Standard Products receiver, Underwood barrel, and assorted manufacturers for the rest. Oh and no import mark I can find. It's my first carbine and I'm in love... :) Tex...

I did try a search of the 101 threads but couldn't find my answer so here goes. My total experience with shotguns is the the Norinco '97 clone that I got for cowboy shooting. It's in 12ga. with a 20" barrel and is just fine for the large and short distance targets. I'm thinking about about...

I'm a Southpaw, and I'm looking at getting one of the left-handed ARs from Stag Arms. The ejection on the right-handed rifles doesn't concern me as any new rifle is going to have a brass deflector. But their left-hander has some other features that I'm looking for. My question is this. If...

So I've been looking at something in 5.56 for my next rifle purchase. I've been looking at something in the AR-15 family, probably a Rock River in a flattop configuration with a collapsable stock. After reading about the advantages of DSA's Gas Trap Carbine, and knowing that I won't be able...
