What do you prefer for a do it all lever action rifle? This should cover hunting, pest control, defensive/offensive use within civilian context, and possibly informal plinking or target shooting. Initially, I’d lean towards an older Marlin 336 in 30-30, however argument could also be made in...

I have been considering a center fire single action for general use, mainly due to appreciation of the classic looks, and also because I have shot them exceptionally well whenever I have had the opportunity to shoot one, used to be able to shoot nickel size groups with my Bearcat pretty easily...

I recently picked one of these up, and I'm really impressed. Retail is around $199, and I haven't found anything else in the same range that I'd trust as much as this. It's obviously not the same level of build quality as a Meprolight or Aimpoint, but is still excellent. It also runs on a...

I recently picked up a used Kimber Custom 2 1911. I'm thinking I should replace the recoil spring since I don't know the round count, and was thinking about putting a stronger than stock spring in. Was thinking of either a 17 or 18 pound spring, instead of the current 16 pound spring. Is there...

Here's a new holster I whipped up, could use a few tweaks if I make another like it, but overall I'm pleased with how it carries. It is sized for my Glock 19, and I used 3mm tumbled cowhide finished with grease buffed by hand to a semi-gloss finish.

I'm looking at the 5.11 Appendix IWB holster made by Bladetech. Anyone here have experiences or thoughts regarding it??? Would be getting it for my G19 as an additional carry option. I already have a nice OWB kydex holster from Pitbull Tactical, as well as a Crossbreed type IWB for when...

I'm primarily a revolver fan, and generaly shoot better with them, however I am looking for an automatic to round out my options and for higher capacity as well as easier ammo management/reloads. My first venture into semi-autos was a HK USP .45, which I struggle to shoot well, and am not...

Looking at getting my first 1911, and have more or less gotten it down to either a Ruger SR-1911, or one of the Armscor or related brands from the Philippines. The features I'm looking for are: Full size 5" pistol in 45acp. Extended beavertail and loop hammer. Standard mil spec plunger and...

Planning on picking up a new .22 soon. If you had asked me a year or two ago I would have picked a 10-22 without a second thought, but with the scarcity and higher cost of ammo I don't know if I want to chew through 500 rounds in an afternoon like I used to when bulk pack .22 was $15 a brick...

I have been considering one of these for small game and plinking. It appears to be a reasonably powerful airgun that is not overly long like the springers I have owned before, I also like that there is a peep sight available for it. So those of you who have owned and shot them, what are...

Found this full flap holster at a small shop in the used holster bin for $10. Says "The George Lawrence Co. Portland OR", with "I4" above it and "543" underneath. Any information on it would be much apreciated. The quality seems good, and it fits my 4" S&W Model 10 quite well, so I don't...

Here is the first S&W revolver I have owned, I traded an old Ruger 9mm auto for it at the local gun show. It is a police trade in Model 10-6 heavy barrel in .38 special, that was made in 1970. I added the Hogue cocobolo grips because they are much more comfortable in hand than the factory...

I have been making leather knife sheaths for several years and decided to finally try my hand at a holster. The pistol I decided to use was a vintage S&W model 10-6 that I recently aquired. Here is what I came up with, based on the classic Threepersons style. Let me know what you guys...
