    JC Higgins Model 60

    I happened upon a JC Higgins Model 60 at a gun store a couple of weeks ago. Price was around $190; it seemed to be in decent shape mechanically, though the finish was well-worn and thin. How is that price? I might pick it up if they still have it the next time I go by there. In considering...

    Uncle Rudy's AR-Build Class

    A friend of mine has asked me about whether this seems like a decent deal for the money: http://unclerudys.com/product/ar-15-build-class/ You get the following: Space for two participants per rifle (husband/wife; father/son; friends; mother/daughter – you get the idea!) Instruction on how to...

    Remington 1187

    A local shop has a fairly-recent Rem. 1187 on their used-rack for around $400 with two barrels and a magazine extension. What do people think of the 1187? I found it maybe a little heavy, though I otherwise liked the feel of it, and the similarity of the stock and grip to the 870.

    Tiny .22 LR Semi-Autos

    Just for novelty, I'm looking for a really small .22 LR semi-auto. I've looked at Astra Cubs, but they seem to only come in .22 short (and .25). Is there any .22 LR auto out there that is around the same size as a Cub? Thanks. (P.S. - I already have a Beretta Mod. 21, which I like a...

    IWB Holster for Browning Hi Power?

    I am looking for an IWB holster for my Hi Power. This seems like an easy enough thing to find, but I have a couple of requirements: the belt loops for it must be spread out enough to keep the gun's grip tight against my back and it must have a retention strap. The retention strap is...

    Custom Grips for a Makarov

    My wife has told me that she would like to get some custom grips for her Mak. Google didn't produce much in the way of results, so I thought I'd ask here. She wants wood, though isn't sure yet what kind, but, more importantly, she wants them decorated. She already has some walnut grips I got...

    C&R License - Change of Address

    My wife and I bought a house earlier this summer and, in early June, I sent ATF my change of address form for my C&R license, but have yet to receive my new license. How long does this sort of thing normally take? Is there someone I can contact to check up on this? Thanks. Janos

    Price Check: Spanish FR8

    So, I was at a local store yesterday and they had a Spanish FR8 for sale, $249.00 plus tax. The finish was in pretty good shape, though with some wear, the barrel was clean and unpitted and the serial numbers on the receiver, bolt and bolt shroud matched (I couldn't find any other serial...

    FN49 Stocks

    I was at a gun show this weekend and I picked up an 8mm FN49, sans stock and stock hardware. For $200, I was pretty happy - it headspaces fine and the bore looks good - no pitting anyway and strong, sharp lands. I knew there was a chance it might be a while before I could get all of the parts...

    So, who makes a holster for the FNP9-M? Do the holsters for any other guns work? Thanks. Janos Dracwlya

    Marlin Camp Carbine - Magazine Conversions?

    I have a Marlin Camp 9 and I really enjoy shooting it. I also have a S&W 5906 so I can share magazines between the two. Something I was wondering about was whether anyone ever made replacement trigger-guard/magazine wells for the Camp 9's that would allow them to use the magazines from other...

    GOEC Chemical Mace (tm) non-lethal weapon

    Today was the day of our subdivision's yard sale and I found something kind of interesting: a GOEC Chemical Mace (tm) non-lethal weapon, with an S&W-marked leather holster. It still had a cartridge (Chemical Mace, Mark V) in it, marked as made in 1991. It's still full and will fire. When...

    CCW Purse/Shoulder Bag for my Wife

    I'm looking for a recommendation on a good purse or shoulder bag for my wife to use to carry her gun. She has a permit to carry, but doesn't wear a belt most of the time and doesn't like fanny packs (though owns two). She does, however, often carry either a small backpack-style purse or one of...

    Colt SP1/M16A1 Uppers

    I've been seeing a lot of these around lately - used ones taken off M-16A1s at gun shows and the ones CDNN had (they're now out). Since I've also been thinking about putting an AR together (not a full build, just buying an upper and lower, etc.), and, since everyone I shoot with has the M4-style...

    Yugo Re-arsenalled Model 98 Mauser

    A Dunham's Sporting Goods just opened in my town. I went in tonight to see what they had. Their case of mil-surp guns contained half a dozen or so Mosin-Nagant 91/30s (mostly with laminated stocks), a few Yugo SKS's, a couple of Enfield No. 4's, a couple of Yugo 24/48 Mausers and a Yugo...

    Remington 870 - Minor but annoying problem. Fix?

    I have a Remington 870 I bought used aboout a year ago. It has only one problem that I can see - the spring (or whatever) that holds the bolt in place allows it to drop back maybe a quarter of an inch (maybe not quite that much) if the gun is not cocked. This caused me some problems with...

    Speaking of headspacing surplus rifles

    My learning experience with my Ishapore No. 2A has left me wondering about checking the headspace in rifles made in the less common calibers: if I can't find a headspace gauge in 7.62x51mm, what am I going to use to check the headspace in a Steyr-Mannlicher M-95 in 8x56mmR or a Schmidt-Rubin...

    Advice on high-capacity 9 mm?

    I am in the market for a high capacity 9 mm Pistol and I am looking for advice or at least the opportunity to bounce my thoughts around. :banghead: First, a little background so you will have some idea on my thinking on this: I used to own a S&W 915 and it was a quite decent gun. In...
