What BP enthusiasts magazines would you suggest for someone wanting to get started in the hobby (addiction)?

Hi folks, I want to learn more about black powder shooting. The past few days I've been doing research on the internet only to find conflicting information - surprise surprise! Some of the sources I read state flintlock and ball and cap pistols should only be used with black powder while other...

Hi Folks, I'm wanting to add a second 1911 to my collection. It will primarily be used at the range to tear-up paper and dent steel. Price range I'm looking at $800 - $1,100. I would appreciate suggestions. The 1911 I own is a Colt Gold Cup Trophy. Purchased back in 1998. Long overdue for a...

Hi folks. I've been wanting to add a polymer to my collection. I tried the Glock's, but found the purchase to be a bit to wide for my liking. Living in CA I can't get the newer Gen4 that might give me options for a better grip. I handled, but wasn't able to shoot, a Springfield XD® 5″ Full Size...

Can someone tell me or point me to a website that can tell me the status of the CA 10 day waiting period that was found to be unconstituational?

Anyone here every purchase online from Tombstone Tactical? I like to find out about the reputation before placing an order. Thank you.

Is it legal to shoot on BLM managed public lands? Where can I find out more information on where and where I cannot shoot?

It took 17 years, but today during reassembly I scratched the frame while inserting the slide lock. :banghead: It was bound to happen someday. Does anyone have suggestions on removing or reducing the scratch? Ps it's stainless steel.

I've been wanting a 22 revolver for some time now. The Ruger Single-Six series I have hear good things about them. In particular the convertible model is interesting having two cylinders one cambered for the 22LR and the other for the 22Mag. Since the mag has a slightly larger diameter bullet I...

Hi Folks, Curious as to which you prefer oil or grease to lubricate the slide? I recently switched to grease (pro shot gold I believe it's called). To early to tell if one is a better option over the other.

Is there away to findout what guns are registered in my name?

Today was my first day taking my new Ruger NMBH (357) out to the range. After 24 rounds I noticed the rear sight pivot pin worked it way out about 1/16". I simply pushed it pack into place with my index finger. After another 20 rounds it did it again. When I got home I called a Ruger. They are...

Over the past 10 years I have seen a dramatic decline in the use of revolvers as well as there availability at gun shops. Why have revolvers become passé? I myself like revolvers over semi-auto pistols. I find my shooting to be more purposeful when shooting a revolver over a semi-auto. I find...

It took nearly 5 weeks of waiting (3 weeks on order and 10 days for the waiting period), but now it's in hand. My new Ruger NMBH chambered for 357/38. Going to the range tomorrow. :)

I'm seeing more and more folks wearing gloves at the ranges. I could understand using them during the colder months but I'm seeing folks use them throughout spring and summer. Why the increase in the use of gloves?

In anticipation of picking up my new gun this coming Monday I went to get a few boxes of .357 magnums. My local dealer had none, but did have a few boxes of .38 special wadcutters. What do you folks think about using wadcutters vs FMJ? I primarily shoot FMJ or the occasional JHP.

I was looking at the Ruger GP100 today while at the indoor range. They have both the 4" and 6" models. I am thinking about adding a 357 to my collection. Since this will be for recreational purpose only which of the two barrel lengths would you recommend? My target distances are as follows: 5...

Was hoping to get some info regarding pros and cons on the S&W M&P Shield. I've been thinking about getting a pistol for CCW.

I'm looking to buy some additional magazines for an M9. All the local dealers want $50 for an OEM replacement. Ridiculous in my view. Tried looking online, but coming up short. I need the 10 rd configuration because I live in California. Anyone know of a good online source for new OEM magazines...

New member here so first off, hello! For the past 12 years I haven't been shooting, but recently the bug bit me again to start backup. I have several hand guns stored away and one of my favorites is a Dan Wesson 744VH. Since it hasn't been fired in 12 years should I have it (and my other...
