It is irritating when anti-gun people who have not bothered to verify bad statistics fed to them by anti-gun sources attack me for my pro-2nd Amendment stance! So, assuming the NRA needs to publicise the truth more, when I return home I make a donation to the NRA of $25 to $100, depending on...

I lucked out...bought an M1A with an attached BORS/Leopold MK 4 scope at an estate sale...but the CD needed to change the bullet and MV didn't come with it. Barrett hasn't returned my emails. Does anyone know how I can obtain this CD? This is an amazing long range computerized sight...

I'm planning a bear hunt, and the guide says "no scopes" because the shooting range will be short...about 50-yds. Problem is, my suitable rifles...6.5-mm Swede and .30-06 Springfield...only have scope sights...and I know from experience that close range hunting with those is worse than...

How great an improvement is this over the Lyman DPS II? My DPS II tended to lose calibration fairly rapidly...when the readings drift over 0.3 grains, the scale signals with a "Beep". No real big deal...as the manual recommended, I kept the calibration essentially constant by pressing the...

As I've had such fine experience in loading the Lyman U311291 Gas Check bullet for practice shooting in .30-06 Garands and Springfields, I'd like to do the same for my 6.5-mm Swede. Who has tried several designs and what's your favorite? Note that the 311291 front half rides on the lands...

My brother skinned a nice rattlesnake...then had to suddenly leave for a couple of weeks. Returned to find it dried out and curled, but not crumbly. What can he treat it with to make it flexible again to put on a wall?

Am going black bear hunting this year...like shooting my Swede better than my .30-06 Springfield, though I've quite capable with either...have always (yes, always!) gotten one-shot kills on deer and 350-lb-plus boar, so I place my shots well. What do you think of the 6.5 x 55 Swede...

All of our American gun massacres have one thing in common: They have occurred in mandated "gun-free" areas. The crazies seek these places in order to shoot as many helpless people as possible before someone with a gun shows up to end it. Question: Could survivors sue the people who...

I'd like to duplicate the .30-30 160-gr LEVERevolution factory loads for use in a new stainless steel Marlin 336. Checking the Hornady website, they list 2400 fps for their factory loaded ammunition, but only go as high as 2100 fps in their reloading data using H4895, TAC, and AA 2520...

A small-frame female friend wants to get a reliable self-defense autoloading pistol for home and self defense...including concealed carry. Low cost is a prime consideration. After checking what's currently available on the market, I'm leaning towards the Hungarian PA-63 Walther-style pistol...

In a discussion concerning main differences between our main political parties, one of the most obvious differences appears to be the following: Republicans are not concerned about the people they govern being armed. On the other hand, all leaders of the Democratic Party are very...

I have heard somewhere that there can be problems with excess pressures in using military .223 and .308 ammo in commercial rifles under some conditions. Is there any truth to this? Mine seem to shoot just fine...:confused:

What is the status of HR 54, the Blair Holt Bill, which would restrict gun ownership and require universal registration? Sorry if this is now a dead issue, but I've been gone for awhile... See: [URL="http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/blairholt.asp"]

What's your experience with this pistol? It's made by Zastavia Arms, imported by European American Armory. I just bought one NIB yesterday, and it looks good...but in trying it out at the range, the front sight disappeared on the ninth shot! :what: Despite coordinated search by three people...

I'm about to load some 300 Win Mag for my brother's African trip, where he wants a large warthog. I'd like to give him some loads for other game also...what are some recommended loads? I have 180-gr Barnes Triple Shock and Nosler Partition bullets left over from his last very succcessful...

This NRA-affiliated, FFL club operates the 500-yd Shelton Range at Fort Benning, Columbus, GA. This club is open to civilians also, and costs a bargain $65/year, no other fees. Wife and kids under 18 shoot for free while you are with them. It's open six days a week...closed Monday, 11:00 am...

lI recommend you listen to this extremely important hearing...we need to see how the congressmen we contacted to fight Eric Holder's appointment as Attorney General will take action...or not! And then we should respond to our congressmen appropriately...Thanks, or No Thanks! This is NOT the...

I ran across an old box of Gulfwax parafin blocks in one of my Aunt's cupboard yesterday. It reminded me of when I used to decap .38-Spl cases, push them through a 1/2" thick parafin block, then prime and shoot them for indoor practice in my revolver. I got some good practice that way with...

Eric Holder's nomination as Attorney General of the United States bodes ill for gun owners. He is actively anti-2nd Amendment rights, and as Attorney General he is in a perfect position to press his anti-gun agenda. I urge you to contact your state Senators, express your strong opposition, and...
