    Which pump 22 for action shooting -- Rossi Gallery 22 or Henry Pump Action 22?

    Hello; I'm trying to decide between the current product Rossi Gallery 22 or the Henry Pump action 22 for action 22 shooting? I don't know a lot about either one. The Rossi is based on the Winchester M1890. It's lighter and shorter than the Henry which is good for action shooting. The Henry...

    Loaders for Kel-Tec CP33 -- American SpeedLoaders, Ludex or MakerShot. Which one?

    Hello; Does anyone here have experience with the American SpeedLoaders, Ludex or MakerShot loaders for Kel-Tec CP33? Any recommendations? The American SpeedLoaders and Ludex designs seem quite similar. The MakerShot loader seems far similar. Thanks.

    Do you display your firearms and related collectables?

    Back in 1999 I looked at buying a new gun safe. Either a larger safe (I had nearly run out of room) or simply a second safe to augment the one I already owned. In the process I talked to a serious collector/dealer of militaria and a neighbor. Mostly from the US Civil War, WWI and WWII. He...

    Who would be capable as a court-appointed receiver to rebuilt the NRA?

    Setting: The CEO of the NRA has been canned and its board purged. Who could the court appoint as a receiver to rebuild/restructure the organization? Someone absolutely beyond reproach. Someone with the skills and experience to build a new team, while keeping things going in the interim.

    Remington is now up and running 24/7 in their ammo business!

    I had no idea they were down? This is going to have a MAJOR impact. Remington must produce what, 1/4 or even a 1/3 of all US-made ammo? Sorry, scalpers...

    Shame on you. Just shame on you.

    Shame on whomever for deleting my thread, an important thread on the NRA. It broke no THR rules, nor was it gossipy. It timely and important. No reason given, just delete-away!

    Ever wish that certain knives were offered from less expensive steel?

    Do you ever wish that certain knives were also offered in a less expensive (but still high quality) steel? A knife largely for admiring and fondling? I'm not talking about EDCs, work knives, those you'll depend on in the outback or investment-grade knives. (I already own plenty of those.) I...

    What's the one knife that got away and now you regret it?

    What's the one knife (or maybe lot of knives) which got away and you still regret it? Maybe it was a stunning deal? Perhaps it was something uber rare? Maybe something with local interest, or perhaps a knife that commemorated something special to you? For me it was a 1918 MkI Dagger. A genuine...

    Undertaker Bowie by Condor Tool & Knife -- Very Pleased with Purchase

    Just a quick note to express my pleasure with the Undertaker Bowie from Condor Tool & Knife I received this morning. It's a beautiful instrument with great lines and balance. It came wrapped very carefully -- as if it had been prepared for shipment by a rare book dealer. Lightly oiled...

    What happened to polymer AR-15 style shotguns like the Akdal MKA-1919?

    What ever happened to polymer AR-15 style shotguns like the Akdal MKA-1919? There were a number of brands for a while, like the Bora Barak BR99. I remember a fellow 3Gunner bought one and it ran pretty darned good. I remember he paid around $450ish. I thought "I'll wait until they are closer to...

    I can't wait to to see his first website/catalogue. I especially want to see what he does with automatics. I wonder if LCT will produce firearms as well?

    What if an AK-47 chambered for the .223 Remington had existed in 1933?

    What if a brilliant and ultra-wealthy American (say someone like Edsel Ford I or Howard Hughes) had designed, tooled and produced in quantity (even if most were warehoused) what we now know as the AK-47 chambered for what we now know as the .223 Remington (including full lethality test data for...

    The Largest "Pocket" Knives in the World...

    Back in 2003, it was this 12' 8" (when fully opened), #268.9 model, designed by Portuguese artist Telmo Cadavez, handmade by Virgílio, Raúl and Manuel Pires. Looks very legit to me. Then in 2010 this "pocket" knife which looks like an aluminum ladder/folding melon knife, was fabricated in India...

    WILDLY fluctuating prices for the same models, from one online retailer to another.

    Given the advent of online sales by a large number of big virtual retailers, I suspect the traditional distribution tier (and their margin) is largely non-existent in many cases these days. What service can they provide to a large retailer -- be they online or with a number of brick/mortar...
