    Well, I already had the manual-

    So, I might as well complete the set- I've had the 422 for years and its always been a favorite, very reliable and accurate. Found the 2206 a couple months back at the gunshow and it's living up to expectations as well. Just scored the 622 and picked it up today- As a quick recap, the 422 is...

    New timber for my Springer

    I had un-sporterized my high-number 1903 a couple years ago with a new forend and a NOS low-hump handguard. It turned out OK, and shoots like a laser, but I wasn't really happy with the looks or handling. Tried as I might, I could never get the wood stain to match and the slick-side Remington...

    A disturbance in the Force...

    ....told me I should go back to the gunshow today. I scored an unfired Ruger Mk2 on the way out yesterday. Overall it was a good show, and there were a few nice pieces I wanted to take another look at if they were still there. This one was new. Older gentleman had set up a table with some...

    I may have a Mark problem.

    Hit the show today to offload a couple I wasn't in love with. Sold 'em the moment we walked in the door for asking price, so now I'm strolling around with a pocket full of cash.... Was a good show, best selection to be had in a while. Lots of old revolvers and milsurps. Prices between...

    CCW for drone/ android defense.

    In the very near future, personal defense drones, robot guard dogs, and armed androids will be a reality. These new technologies will first be deployed by militaries, then the rich and powerful to supplement their traditional security, but will eventually become available to both modestly...

    First new gun of 2024! 😁

    Just a nice clean, pre-MIM SP-101 Got to shoot it too, along with my new/old 5" Model 10- The Smith shot like a dream. The Ruger, not so much. The trigger was very light for an SP, so I suspect someone has worked on it, though I didn't get any ignition failures. The problem was it kept...

    Bought a Charter Arms 'cuz they can't be that bad.....

    ...and, wouldn't ya know, it was broke. Picked it up this little Pathfinder snubby last week, and took it out to the back yard to plink some tin cans. All I got was 'click, click, click.' -almost no primer indents. Well, they come apart easy enough. Problem was pretty obvious- Broken firing...

    Detroit PD bling

    Picked up this clean 10-5 today when I realized I didn't have a single nickel wheel gun in the stable. Couldn't get a good shot of it, but "Detroit Police" and a property number is nicely stamped on the backstrap, so much cleaner than the terrible electro-pencil so often used. She's got...

    "I know you hate pot metal, but...."

    So, I walked into my buddys' shop today and first thing he says to me (while unlocking his safe) is "I know you hate pot metal, but I think I took in something you might like. Any guesses?" And you know what, I nailed it on the first try. You shoulda seen the look on his face- priceless! Now...

    Bought two Enfields, guy threw in a 1911 for free!

    Heres the first one- Got the bayonet with the package too! 😁 Oh, here's the other Enfield- 1968 Ishapore 2A in 7.62 NATO. One of the cleanest Ishys I've seen in a long time. The Indian guns are often rode hard and put up wet, the 2As especially. I actually looked hard at this gun at the...

    Win some, lose some range day.

    Had a half-day today so got to shoot 3 new-to-me guns after work. I brought my first (owned) Glock, a Gen 3 G19, the gorgeous 6" Official Police I got from Jeff Olson, and my $100 Beretta 16 gauge single with some cartridge adapters. Pistol-caliber to 16 GA adapters aren't easy to come by, so I...

    Here's what a Benjamin got me at the gunshow yesterday.

    Found a rather crusty Remington M510 .22 single on my favorite pusher's "unloved" rack at the show with $125 on the tag. I offered him a crisp hundo and four hours of polishing, sanding, buffing, bluing, oiling, and swearing later here we are- The barrel code dates this Targetmaster to 1946...

    Classic score at the Tacticool Shop!

    Wandered into the local "plastic fantastic" and AR shop while waiting for my Chinese food order and found something, well......(mostly) not plastic for a no-brainer price. 6" 1985 Ruger MK2 Man, this thing was DIRTY. Now, I know this shop doesn't specialize in throwback stuff (Ive gotten great...

    Thoughts on current KaBars?

    So, with the demise of OKC, Ive been looking at new Kabars and the website certainly seems to display a nice varied lineup at reasonable prices. Mostly claimed to be USA made - though, curiosly, they've recently removed the USA stamp from many ricasso stamps....🤔 Specifically, Im looking at...

    AR seized up, any guesses?

    My work buddy asked me to take a look at his bog standard Radical Firearms 16" AR 15. The story is he and his girl were shooting it, she didnt pull the charging handle back all the way on a new magazine, but then the gun seized up tight. He doesn't know if there is a live round in the chamber...
