    Do some guns shoot "flatter"?

    I was just reading a post here on the forum, about the new Hudson semi-auto, and problems the new owner was having getting a part replaced. He mentioned that he liked the fact that the Hudson seemed to shoot FLATTER than other guns he has owned. I've read this sort of comment about other...

    George Stringer... Any updates?

    I know that George Stringer, a gunsmith who was active on The Firing Line (and maybe here) had serious health problems following a heart attack, some time back and had to retire. Has anyone checked in, checked up on, or heard any news about George? (I don't think it was expected that he...

    Qutestion about Browning (staked) Front Sight

    I recently picked up new sights for my BHP, and took it to my gunsmith for installation. (They were the Millett's recently offered by Gun Parts.) Nice sights. While I ordered the sights that seemed appropriate for the gun (staked front sight, and dovetailed rear), the rear dovetail on the...
