So I picked up the trapshooting habit about four years ago, and I really enjoy it! Enjoyed it anyway :( The problem is I got pretty good, more or less steady progress until I was in the 20s, came close to running 25 straight a few times, finally I was running 25 straight fairly regularly...

Please help me formulate a few counterpoints for those who might not appreciate today's announcement of US intent to withdraw from the ATT. From a cursory reading, the ATT seems to imply that signatory nations would be required to (among other things) "designate competent national authorities...

I started out by watching a few events, paying attention to the old guys who rarely miss. They make it look so effortless. Finally got the nerve to try it myself, and had a great time! I had been primarily concerned about getting into the flow of things, not wanting to hold anyone up, and safety...

I can barely bring myself to repeat that cringe-worthy name, but regarding the http://hk-usa.com/freemagazines/ deal, does anyone know what magazine capacity will be provided? "Buy a new full size VP or P30 pistol, and get 4 free mags" Okay but I'm really not interested in 10 round magazines...

I wanted a more accurate .22lr bolt action rifle, and bought a Ruger American Rimfire Standard (this one). For reasons that I have yet to determine I have been disappointed in its accuracy. Although I still have lots of experimentation to do regarding ammunition and other factors, I can't seem...

New Ruger American shoots straight with open sights. No problem there, so I was ready to mount a scope. It's a Leupold VX-2 and I am using Weaver #12 Base Top Mounts with Leupold QRW Low rings. At 50 yards I miss the target completely, unless both elevation and windage are at their limits. Even...

Its purpose is to be a range toy, so size is not a consideration. 10 shot capacity preferred. I am considering a S&W M617, either in 4 or 6 inch but probably 6 inch, and a S&W model 63. Adjustable sights preferred. A Model 43C was also in the running, but I already have a small J frame...

Someone asked me about this: http://imgur.com/gallery/pyN6l I have no idea what it is, but I wouldn't have pulled the ring :what:

I know little about rifles and almost nothing about scopes. That's a Nikon Prostaff Rimfire II 4-12x40 and an M&P15-22. Does everything appear to be mounted correctly? From what I read here I had been partial to Leupold scopes, but Cabela's talked me out of Leupold and into the Nikon. I...

What is this? I can't feel anything with a toothpick, and if it's just normal soiling I have not been able to remove it with Hoppe's and a brush. The gun is new and has had exactly 30 rounds through it, all Winchester 130 gr target rounds. They are not +P loads, although the barrel is rated...

Searching around for a simple rifle sling I found a mind-boggling variety available. All I wanted was a simple and durable sling, without quick-attach fittings or anything else. Something inexpensive, of reasonable quality, that I could put on, adjust once and be done with it. If you're...

I bought a cheap red dot sight, a Bushnell TRS-25. The elevation is perfect but my groups are an inch or so too far left. The instructions helpfully state the windage adjustment screw is the one on the right, and that one click = 1 MOA. Great. The only missing information is... which way...

I'm a decent hand gunner but never shot a rifle before. Don't really know anything about long guns at all, but on a whim I bought an S&W M&P15-22 from a reputable online dealer the other day for really no other reason that I have to start somewhere. It was reasonably priced and life isn't...

... remember to wear safety glasses. :what: Especially when removing a floor plate from a magazine you're not familiar with. That thing launched quite unexpectedly. Fortunately the projectiles missed all my important parts.

I thought I understood what "full auto" meant, but then I ran across this: http://www.slidefire.com How does that differ from a fully automatic weapon? I picture myself bringing such a thing to a range and being put away for a very long time. I'm not so naïve as to think laws...

My LGS favors Stag Arms for their quality. I am leaning in favor of S&W but that is only due to my familiarity with the company's products and support. I have also handled the S&W and like it due to its relatively low weight (6.5 lb vs. 7 for a comparably equipped Stag). Which of the two...

How heavy a safe has anyone carted up one flight of stairs, and how did you do it? I'm thinking of using a hand cart (or hand truck, whatever you call it, that thing on two wheels) but I don't want anyone outside of myself and my wife (and whoever delivers the safe, can't avoid that) to know...

The slides on all my autoloaders can be released by thumbing the slide release lever down. I don't usually do that though, since I prefer the slingshot method using my support hand. When the slide of my M&P 40 locks back on an empty mag, and after inserting a loaded mag, the slide release is...

A couple nights ago around dusk I heard a gunshot, probably a long gun, pretty close. Didn't think much of it since hunting is common around here. A little while later I saw a sole hunter in orange on my neighbor's property. Not an unusual sight. The next morning I found a whitetail deer in...
