Our move is on the schedule for next week and have a couple specific questions for you guys who have recently moved. I have all my pistols in the original boxes and stored in a lockable tote. Do I need to have locks on all the pistol cases or is the tote local enough? Do my long guns need to...

My job may take me to central IA and I'm an active IDPA shooter looking for some matches in the Des Moines/Ames area. I found the Isik Walton club in Ames, has anyone shot in their IDPA or steel matches? Thanks!

So my job might be taking me to central IA. I'm currently an active IDPA and skeet shooter. Anyone live there and could suggest a good active club/range? My wife is also an avid skeet shooter and wants me to find a nice club for the family to join. I've found a couple in the Ames/Des Moines...

I'm looking at getting another O/U for shooting skeet. I have found a nice Citori GTI and a XS Sporting for about price both 30" barrels (GTI is ported and XS is not). Any advantages to going with the newer XS sporting over the GTI? GTI has nice case as well. Anyone have experience with both...

I'm looking for another O/U skeet gun and have been checking out the Beretta 682's. I found a 683 super sport with 30" barrels in my price range and wondered if anyone had experience with these? If should I jump on it for under $1500?

A couple years ago I sent my shotgun stock to Greg Hissem to have an adjustable comb installed. He did awesome work of course, but I understand he has retired. Is there anyone out there doing comparable quality work? Thanks!

I've been shooting a 28" barrel Browning Citori for the last couple of years and have been wondering how longer barrels might effect the skeet game? Given the same fit, would there be much difference between 28" and 32". I'd just like to get a few opinions on the transition from shorter to...

My wife picked up a brand new Remington 1100 Competition with 30" barrel, carbon fiber adjustable stock with recoil reducer, nickel plated receiver, and 5 Briley chokes. She needed a gun with an adjustable stock to get it to fit her correctly so when I saw this one in the gun shop I had to have...

Well I went to the toy store over the weekend and they had a GSG 1911 22lr sitting the case with the fake suppressor on it. :D I decided to fondle it a bit then had to pull the trigger and buy it! First impression at the gun shop were very good, it really feels like a quality pistol with heavy...

I purchased a Para GI Expert in the middle of August and it was shooting 4" low at 30ft. I called Para and they of course gave me an RMA so off it went. They had the pistol for over 6 weeks so I called on Tuesday 10/4/11 to check on the status. The pistol was done, they fitted new slide and...

I picked up a used Remington 1100 slug barrel with rifle sight bases on it. The front sight I replaced with a Fire Sights fiber optic, but the rear sight ramp is missing the "carriage" that slides on the dove tailed ramp. Williams Gun Sights has a replacement sight, but it does not come with a...

I picked up a used Sig P229 DAK in .40S&W last week and what a sweet shooting pistol it is! :D I was really surprised with the DAK trigger! I thought it was sort of clunky when I first shoot one a couple years ago, but this one is really nice! Smooth even pull and you can "ride the trigger"...

So I've owned a Kahr P45 and sold it due to reliability issues, bought a P380 this spring and love the gun which got me thinking about a 9mm Kahr. Now I carry my M&P9c A LOT, but a recent thread got me thinking about something thinner in 9mm. Sooo, I picked up a CM9, took it to the range and...

I picked up a NIB Para GI Expert for $499.00 yesterday and since it was raining cats and dogs yesterday, I finally got to shoot it today. Took it to the range and put through ~250 rds of 230gr poly coated RN. Not one feeding issue HOWEVER, it is shooting 4" low and 0.9" left at 30ft. I...

Things are looking like a move might be in our near future. I have a medium size collection (relative to the folks on this forum :D) that will need to be moved possibly out of state. How is the best and legal way to accomplish this? I was thinking of packing up my reloading supplies plus...

I picked up a Sig P250 ultra Compact in 40 last week. I wanted to get another 40 caliber carry gun as a companion to my Walther PPS. I've owned a P226 and sold it, but kept my P220. I took the P250 to the range Friday and put 100rds through it without any issues. Nice shooting DOA pistol...

So I was bitten by the pocket pistol bug. I picked up a S&W sigma 380 for cheap and found a screaming deal on a "used" Kahr P380 with crimson trace laser. I put ~100 rounds through the S&W 380 without any problems. The Kahr on the other hand must not have made it through the 200-300 rd...

I've only owned one other 380 auto a Browning BDA and really did not like the pistol much. Sold it a few years ago. I've shot several LCP's, a Kahr, and a KelTec 3AT. I found a nice little S&W 380 (sigma 380) on sale at the local toy store. Decent price and gun is good shape so I bought it...

I picked up a G22 .40S&W over the summer and have been shooting it every weekend in IDPA matches. I reload the .40S&W and have been all along. I had something strange and scary happen at today's match. Half way through the 3rd stage I pulled the trigger and immediately felt a sting on the...

My wife has been shooting a 20ga Browning Citori for a year or so and last week I let her shoot my 12Ga with 28Ga tubes in it. After the first shot, she gave me the "I can't believe you made me shoot this 20Ga for a year when you had this!" :eek: Anyway, she liked the feel and lighter recoil...
