My grandpa passed a year ago and I finally had some time to drive out to my Mom's place...she was saving some of his tools for me. He was a machine shop supervisor at Coors his entire career, and she saved his toolmaker lathe from his basement for me! While I was down there she asked if I...

I haven't sold a gun in a while and I can't remember. If I am shipping a pistol to an FFL I know I need to retain a signed copy of his license for my records. Will a faxed copy work or do I need one signed in ink? I searched but can't find the answer anywhere...

I'm a big fan of CZ's pistols but I have to say my experience with them over the phone just left me cold. The firing pin on my 75B broke after about 20K rounds and I ordered a new one. After installing the new one, I kept getting light strikes. Finally figured out that the new pins have a...

I'm about to take a trip, leaving tomorrow around mid-day. I'll be driving to Boston and attending a conference there from Thursday through Sunday. Monday I depart to New Hampshire to spend some time with family. I'd like to bring several of my more unusual handguns with me cause my uncle has...

After reading the thread on the "gun industry shield", I realized that I either sept through civics in H.S. or forgot it. Either way I realized that I have no idea ow laws are passed. Do they always go through the Senate first? How do committees work? Sorry if this is not directly related...

I just got a new P-3AT and I have to say I'm damn impressed! I've had a couple P-32's iin the past, one purchased new when they first came out and another I bought about a year ago. Both needed work initially, but matured into reliable carry guns. I decided it made sense to carry the largest...

Hiya everyone, My neighbor is English and he and I have gone round and round (in a friendly way) about the gun laws in the UK for a while. Friendly banter; neither one of us is liable to change our positions. However, his daughter and her husband is in town and we had a nice discussion at...

I've been thinking about it and I have come to the conclusion that I have too many guns. With around 30 in my collection, only about 4 of them see regular use. I shoot the others once in a blue moon and still have to keep them cleaned, etc. I'm thinking this is all I *really* need: -Summer...

First off, I'm a decent marksman. On an average day I can keep them within 4-5" offhand at 20 yards...that's good enough for me. I never could shoot 1911's very well though. It's not the recoil, as I shoot my bigbore revolvers VERY accurately. I finally figured out it is the trigger! I know...

So today was my 30th Birthday. I took a long drive in the country and stopped by a Pawnshop on the way home. Found this beauty with my name all over it: S&W 29-2 6 1/2 Inch Barrel Factory Nickle Finish Thing looks like it's hardly ever been shot...TIGHT lockup and nice trigger...

Hi Mods; I know this belongs in the shotty forum, but I've been posted there for a day and I really need to get this thing re-assembled. May I temporarily plead to a broader audience? Basicly I need a couple pictures of the trigger group of a Mossy 590 so I can reassemble mine. I took it...

Mossberg 590 Question - Need pics please So I completely disassembled my 590 yesterday for a long overdue detail cleaning. Took the trigger assembly apart and dug up the manual when time came to put it all back together. The folks at Mossberg don't deign to put a diagram of the trigger group...

I just recieved a set of meprolights for my CZ75B. Would like to try and install them myself. Front sight is dovetailed in from the front, and it looks like there's a pin holding the stock sight in. New Meprolights do not appear to have a slot to accomodate said pin. Is it a friction...

I just got a USP .45 and I'm pretty happy with it...very accurate and reliable. However, the trigger is just plain crap. Long, gritty and heavy in double, and pretty much the same in single. I'm not familiar with the lockwork on one of these; looks like a cross between a Glock and a Kel-Tec...

I was wondering if you can make a C&R weapon non-C&R eligible by modifying it too much. I know (or have heard, anyway) that changing the caliber will make the weapon non-C&R, but what about heavily modifying it? For instance, taking a Sistema Colt and turning into a full custom 1911, but...

I know you guys think I'm crazy, but does anyone make these? I've been joking around with a buddy about shooting IDPA one night with it for S&G, but can't find any loaders.

I've been thinking about another pistol specfical for shooting IDPA and at the range today one of the guys who works there showed me an EAA Tanfoglio in 9mm. It looked a lot like my CZ75, but had a more squared off trigger guard. The magwell was beveled, it had a large mag release and some...

:cuss: :cuss: :cuss: Rubber Band Boy Sunday, February 27, 2005 "On top of Old Smokey, all covered with sand, I shot my poor teacher, with a red rubber band. ..." That children's parody of the traditional folk song may not be so funny to 13-year-old Robert Gomez of Orlando, Fla...

OK, so my 14 gun safe is stuffed with about 25+ guns right now. I'm getting scratches on my pistols because they are just stacked up next to each other. I can drop the top shelf down giving me room to build a rack that seperates the pistols better...and I have a full woodshop to make one...

:what: Seriously. Taurus seems to really LISTEN to what consumers want, and consistantly brings new and innovative products to market. S&W seems to be more arrogant about it and assumes people will buy whatever they make. Someone over there needs a swift kick in the pants, IMHO.
