    A couple of rifle questions, for young daughter...

    Sorry for the typo in the title... This is in regard to my daughter, who is 10 years old and medium framed. We already have a 243 but it's a little too much for her to handle without develoiping a flinch at this time. Maybe next year... I am looking at a Weatherby Vanguard in .223 for my...

    PM40, deal or no deal?

    Local Cabelas has a used PM40, with only one magazine, no box or papers, for $475 plus tax. It hs night sites, but I'm not sure if those are standard or an add on. It is definately used, but appears to be in good shape. I really wanted a PM9 but these run $650 new around here. Good deal or not...

    Need help with revolver ID...

    I am thinking of trading a slug gun for a couple of revolvers. One offer was made for the two guns in the picture. One (top) is a SA .22 and the other is a DA .38. I asked the guy if they have any markings and this is what he sent me: "the 38. has mod.3 on one side of the barrell,and the...

    LCP problems, need advice...

    My new, post recall, LCP is having serious FTE issues. Here's a little background. I bought this new and took it directly to the range, uncleaned (2 weeks ago). I fired 100 rounds of WWB through it. I had two FTEs in that first 100 rounds. I chalked it up to no initial cleaning. I took...

    Wow, I guess I'm a...

    ...Smith and Wesson guy?!?!? I never would have thought... I buy and sell guns way too often it seems. I buy one, try it for a while, then sell it. It seems that guns don't last in my hands for too long before they get sold. I have owned Springfield, Walther, Colt, Para, Ruger, Taurus...

    Marlin 336 in .35 remington?

    I have a line on a fairly nice Marlin 336 in .35 remington. I'm looking for a good gun for east Texas whitetails and hogs. I realize the downside to this is that the .35 ammo is harder to find. This is a pre-safety model. The guy wants $285 for it. Is this a good deal, or should I just look...

    Sacrilege? Thinking of downgrading and need opinions...

    I have a Springfield Loaded 1911 A1 SS, basically new. I'm thinking of selling it and buying a polimer framed XD or similar then pocketing the difference. Am I making a mistake? It's just so dang heavy to carry... Todd

    Refinish stock... Yes or no?

    I just bought a Marlin 1894, made in 1971, in great mechanical condition. The wood is in fair condition but I can tell that it has really nice grain to it. These guns really aren't collectibles, so is there any reason NOT to refinish the stock? Todd

    Winchester 1200?

    I received a 1200 as part of a trade and I am presently working on refinishing the stocks. The gun has a 20 inch barrel for home defense with a cylinder bore. I realize the 1200 was replaced by the 1300 and many parts interchange, but is there anything inherently WRONG with the 1200? Would it...

    Browning BAR questions...

    I have a Browing BAR 7mm Mag. and I'd like to buy an extra clip/magazine for it. I'm not sure if it is a Mark I or II or what. It was made in the mid-1980s and has no scroll work. The barrel only says Browning BAR. Anyway, a couple of questions: 1) Are the clips/magazines interchangeable...

    Para LDA questions...

    The LDA has been out for a while now. What is the general concencus on the LDA setup. Does it seem to be a good design and does it seem to hold up well? I'm not looking for comments on whether you like the length of pull, travel, etc., or how it compares to a SA 1911, just want to know...
