    New to me Ruger 10/22

    OK, so after many years of gun ownership I finally have my first Ruger 10/22. I've owned (and still own) plenty of other .22 rifles, mostly lever actions and a few pumps, with a Rem 552 BDL as my only semi-auto. I also had a Marlin Model 60, but my brother-in-law got that one from me. The...

    Kahr Broken Slide Stop

    Anyone else have this happen to them? The slide stop broke in half. Looks like it was MIM. Kahr sold me a replacement and I am up and running again. I just hope something similar doesn't happen to a more critical piece of the gun.

    My Early Savage 110Ls

    I noticed a few Savage 110 threads lately, so I thought I would post a couple of pics of my Savage 110Ls from the early 60's. The .243 is in the 50000 serial number range and has a Weaver rings and a K6 scope on it. I believe it has an after market stock made from some beautiful feather...

    20" HBAR build with 1.5-4.5x scope

    So here is my first AR build (or upper build), made from parts I picked up here and there: The project started when I picked up a lightly used complete large pin Colt A2 20" HBAR upper at a gun show a few years ago. It was very reasonably priced because everyone wanted a 16" M4 profile...

    Price Check Winchester 9422

    Whats a good looking Winchester 9422 going for nowadays? I have a trade in the works and need a fair estimate in value. No box, lightly used. Most all the blueing (maybe a little wear here and there). Thanks

    Loose Front Sight on CMP Garands

    Many of the service grade M1 Garands at the CMP store have a fairly loose front sight. This has got to affect accuracy. The indexing ridge is sloppy in the barrel grove and it allows a little play. Is there a standard fix for this (like peening the indexing grove? Thanks, clang

    What kind of load for a .68 caliber Flintlock pistol?

    I picked up a Flintlock pistol at the funshow last weekend that appears to be .68 - .69 caliber. It's got a 1/2 round 1/2 octagonal smoothbore barrel marked "JAPAN" on it. It looks to be in decent enough shape, so I plan on shooting it. Does anyone have a suggestion on a safe load?

    Picked up an ASM 1860 Army - what's a good load?

    At the fun show this weekend there was an Armi San Marco repro Colt 1860 Army that I wound up buying for a C note. The gun looks to be unfired, with just a little surface rust in a couple of spots. The gun appears to be well made with a very nice action. The only issue I had with it was the...

    Beretta Tomcat 3032 Cracked Frame

    So, a couple a months ago I pull out my Beretta Tomcat Alleycat to give it a lube and cleaning. I haven't shot it in a while because I don't reload .32 ACP and ammo is expensive. To tell the truth, I haven't shot it much at all since I bought it years ago, and when I did, it was with Walley...

    Went for the P6s but wound up with Glock

    A buddy told me that the local Gander Mountain had a bunch of the surplus Sig Sauer P6s in stock so I thought I would go take a look. They had about 1/2 dozen in stock and were selling them for $319.99. But right next to the display P6 was a like new Glock 17 with a $319.95 price tag on it...

    Big Hands - Small Gun

    What kind of trigger contact do you use when you have a small gun and a large hand. When I hold my Kahr E9 my trigger finger is long enough that I can wrap around the trigger at the second joint. If I just use the tip of my finger, it's so unnatural that I pull when squeezing. I'm...

    Webley Mark I value

    Any idea what a Webley Mark I with the cylinder converted to .45ACP with moon clips is worth? The gun looks all original and has the broad arrow proof mark on just about every piece - including a very large one on the topstrap. At least 80% of the blueing is left and the gun locks up tight...

    Check Mate (Checkmate) Mags - a tale of two reputations

    I recently went searching for info about GI surplus Beretta 92 mags and was surprised to see all the negative opinions about Check Mate Industries magazines. Lots of soldiers had trouble with them jamming in Iraq, so word is they are crap. The reason I was surprised is because Check Mate M14...

    Used Sig from the Factory

    Anyone ever buy a Sig Sauer that came from the factory used? The reason I am asking is because I know of a shop that has a 220 that looks to be in pretty good shape that I am considering buying. The price is right at $350. Thanks, clang

    Instructions for Winchester Super X Model 1

    Anyone have a online source for take down/assembly instructions for a Winchester Super X model 1? I was lucky enough to pick one up last week at a gunshow. I've read that these are supposed to be great guns so I figured I'd give it a try. It's an early trap model with the stage 1 trigger and...
