    My latest toy

    My birthday present arrived yesterday via the BBT. I ordered a select, all-matching Albanian SKS from AIM on 8/19 and it arrived 9/11. An auspicious start to a new relationship. After a few hours of cosmo removal here's what I found. The AIM ad said all external numbers matching and they...

    New and "improved" BFC

    It appears that Mikey Moore is reacting to some of the negative press being heaped on "Bowling for Columbine" and has released a new version with some "alterations". Here's the link: http://www.spinsanity.org/post.html?2003_08_31_archive.html#1062477905999081 Gee, Mike, if you'd told the...

    Left-hand IWB

    Any suggestions for and/or experiences with IWB holsters for a 4" GP-100? A good friend suggested kydex but I'm having trouble finding somebody that makes LH kydex and IWB. IDPA legal is also desirable. Thanks.

    What happens if ...

    A hypothetical question: The '94 AWB dies a horrible, lingering, painful, and well-deserved death.:D The IDPA BOD will: 1. carry on as usual, 2. remove the 10 round limit to magazines, 3. create a new classification for pistols with more than 10 round mags? My gut feeling is #1 but...

    Lapua dealer

    Anyone know of a dealer that stocks or will order the Lapua D166 bullet? I haven't gotten much help from the ones I've contacted. Online dealers would be great but someone in the Atlanta area would be better. Thanks.

    Grip bushings

    Can anyone direct me to a listing of screw thread sizes and pitches of grip screw bushings for the various pistol makers? Specifically I'm looking for Beretta, Taurus, Sig, and Para-ordnance. Thanks.

    SKS annoyance

    I was shooting my Chinese, arsenal 26 SKS at my sisters house over the weekend and the cleaning rod kept following the rounds downrange. It's a mint condition example except that when I picked it up the seller didn't have the cleaning rod. I found one at a local gun show and thought all was...

    S&W 500 Magnum

    Did anyone else ruin their latest copy of "American Rifleman" by drooling over the article on the "Big 50"? After seeing the lineup of large handgun rounds, .44Mag, .45Casull, ,480Ruger, and .500S&W Mag side by side, all I can say is :what: "the recoil is no more objectionable than a...

    AR lower question

    A co-worker has a SOCOM Mfg. billet lower receiver for sale for $250. I'm a total know nothing when it comes to AR's. Opinions? The picture I saw on the web site sure is pretty.

    What's the difference?

    At a gun show recently I was corrected when I called a gun a carbine. I was told it was a short rifle. OK, I'm not a liberal which means I'm a knuckle-dragger:D but what's the difference?

    Pistol for pilots

    On my way work this morning I almost ran off of the road laughing when the bozo on the radio said that "a 40 millimeter is recommended" for pilots wanting to be armed in the cockpit. :what: Holy cow! DDR LMAO (driving down road laughing MAO)

    Taurus PT-99 Q

    Being left-handed, I have a devil of a time finding holsters for my handguns. Can anyone tell me if a holster for a Beretta 92 will fit a Taurus PT-99? I've never seen the two side by side so I'm not sure if the taller front sight on the PT-99 is enough to make a difference. The other problem...

    3 gun match

    An IDPA buddy has convinced me to give 3-gun a try. Just out of curiosity, what do you folks shoot that shoot in production class? Guns and ammo. Thanks. Stay safe.
