I've never owned a 1911. Someday, maybe not to far off, I'd like to own a really nice 1911. Would a Les Bear fill the bill? My dilemma is that I've read way to many posts about faulty Kimbers, Springers, ext. I've heard good things about S&W but I want a traditional 1911; no external...

I just bought a K-31 7.5x55. Does anyone have experience with PRVI ammo in this caliber or any other? How good is it?

I've reloaded other gauges for years but never 410. I'll be loading 2.5" AA hulls both old type and HS. What is your favorite 410 powder? Why is it your favorite? Thanks

Dove season is here and a lot of Dads are showing up at the skeet range with their young sons. The gun of choice seems to be the 870 Express or a Mossberg, both in 12 ga. The load of choice is either the bulk pack 3 dram (1200 fps) 1 1/8 oz load or the "heavy dove" 3 1/4 dram (1250 fps) 1 1/8...

Two other shooters and I each shot a box of AA low recoil/noise 12ga shells on the skeet range today. They advertise half the recoil and noise. They aren't lying! Recoil is like a 28ga and they are very quiet. They broke skeet targets as well as standard loads. Two of us thought that they...

Does anyone have personal experience with "high end" 1911s? What can I expect of an @ $2000 Ed Brown, Les Bear, Nighthawk, ect. What about them is "over and beyond" a $1000-$1200 Kimber, Springfield Armory, ect? The reasons I'm asking are. I've purchased many guns only to later wish I'd...

I'm having trouble following posts that are littered with abbreviations such as IWB, FTF, OWB, ect. Please help me by defining as many as you can think of. Thanks

You've soaked your barrel with solvent and you've brushed it. Now you need to get the mess out.......... What I do is wad up a Kleenex so that it is a TIGHT fit going into the CHAMBER (one and a half tissues for 12 ga, experiment to find ideal fit). I then place my cleaning rod in the...
