Hey everyone, I recently purchased a Weatherby Vanguard Sub MOA in .270 win and want to have it as a hunting rifle, some flexible enought for woodchucks right on up to deer and elk if I ever get out west. What I'm torn on is scope, rings, base and all that, now I have good experiences with...

Hello everyone, my name is Craig, and I'm addicted to Krylon (*Hi Craig*) Not to long ago I got a urge to break out a can of spray paint and have some fun, here are some pics of it so far, still deciding if I want to do some sort of pattern or not its a Beretta CX4 storm in .40S&W...

I went to my first Appleseed over the weekend in Van Etten, NY. It was a bit of a drive for me but I was able to stay at my cousins house an hour north so that saved me some money in hotel costs. All in all I enjoyed myself alot. I'll admit when I first got there I underestimated the...

I just got a shipment of Black Hills 175gr match ammo for my .308 for F-Class this summer. So I got thinking it would be interesting to know what the tolerances are for the ammo. So far I have weighed and measured the COAL of 40 out of the 95 rounds I have on hand. I haven't plugged any...

Hey guys, I was at my range a few days ago and some of the guys suggested I join the bullseye club. I plan on asking some of them to try out their pistols to see what I like, but in the mean time, what are some good .22 pistols to look at, accuracy being the key part. cost is also important as...

two of the guys at my range have the ciener .22 conversion kits for their ARs but I didn't think to ask them where they got theirs. I've seen them at brownells and midway usa, but I was wondering if anyone knew where I might be able to find one a little bit cheaper. thanks guys.

I noticed my grips were getting loose so i tried to tighen them and noticed that they wouldn't tighten back up, so I investigated, turns the threads in the frame are stripped, the bushings just spin in the frame, I've been able to get three of the four off. What are my options here? do I put...

I tore my garand apart for the first time in over a year and a half, I noticed that there is a slight bend in the Oprod, is this normal or is ita bad thing and need a new one? thanks

Yesterday I went the range with some friends to do some shooting, we fired off a number of weapons, a Sig in 9mm, Springfield 1911, S&W 500, M1 garand, and my custom savage, which I've posted about here previously. The last time I took the savage out was during deer season at which time I had...

I picked up m first revolver today, its a used S&W 500 with the 8 3/8" barrel with the standard comp. I bought it off of a friend whos funding his pilots license with the pistol sale, I've fired it once before last summer, put 10 rounds through it then. I like it, makes my teeth hurt :evil: got...

As some of you may remember me talking about rebuilding my savage in .308, Hart barrel, McMillan A-5 stock, Leupold MK 4 tactical in badger rings. Well its complete and I've had the chance to put a number of rounds through it. Dismissing one flier, I shot a four round group at .219" at 50...

hey guys, one quick question for you all, when you buy new brass, do you tunble it first before anything else? I just bought a 1000 .45acp cases and not sure if i should tumble them first or not, they're brand new never fired. Thanks

My roommates and myself got into the discusion concerning AOW shotguns and the legalities of them. Now I know that they are legal to own in NY, however what sort of process does one go through to buy one? On the form that you fill out for every firearm purchase, what does the dealer put down...

hey everyone, today while I was at my Iraqi Police station they brought some guys in who looking to rob people as they were leaving a bank. in their possession were two pistols both quite interesting in my mind. One was an Iraqi built pistol, 9mm, based off of a beretta I believe, only it...

So we're chilling at our Iraqi Ploice station today when one of the captains pulls out his old beat up looking single shot shotgun. Its a Mod Ciclope Astra-Unceta &CLA S.A. Guermica- spain with a serial number of 26072 (what do I care about giving out the serial number, its in Iraq)...

Today at my Iraqi police station the major gave me some 12 guage shotgun rounds that they had found and I was wondering if anyone might know anything about them. One is an Eley alphamax 2 3/4'' round says that its made in england and has a large number 1 in a circle with 3.6mm writen beneath...

I just finished reading Zack Smith's article in Combat Arms comparing the TRG and the AWSM and I must say it was a good read, very informative and well put together. Every time I read about either rifle I start drooling and wished I made more so that I could afford one. One question though...

my buddy had a case rupture today in his ASV mounted .50cal and we can't seem to figure out how it happened. about a quarter of an inch up from the extractor groove there is a raised ring all around the case, very thin, then the case continues another 16th of an inch or so to where the case...

I'm from upstate NY and I should be home for deer season this year, I really haven't thought of this before, namely never hunted with a scope before. How tall is the average white-tail at the shoulder? for both bucks and does, I was looking at getting a laser range finder but I've decided to...
