    Kimber Ultra RCP II - Dead or Alive?

    I recently acquired a Kimber Ultra RCP II from my brother-in-law. I've done some research and found the pistol was relatively short lived in the Kimber product line. Anyone know why? I've gone to Gunbroker to look for any current auctions and found none. I checked this forum and found the last...

    Kimber 1911 7 Round Mags Question

    First off I have relatively little experience with 1911 semi-auto pistols. I recently inherited a Kimber Pro CDP II and an Ultra RCP II. The Kimber website states that both pistols take a 7 round magazine. However, the Ultra RCP’s mag is about a half inch shorter than the Pro CDP's mag. But I...

    What .22 auto to get for the range?

    I want to buy a .22 auto for my daughter and wife to use at the range. I'm afraid if I let them try my .357 it will be their first and last time to go. :( I've heard good things about Walther's P22, Any pros or cons to the P22? Any others I should look at?

    Enfield #4 Carbine in .45ACP

    I recently saw an Enfield #4 Carbine converted to .45ACP in a Century International Arms flyer for $299.87. At this point I'm intrigued! Has anyone purchased one of these from CIA? Is this a Rhineland conversion done by Century? Any idea of the quality of these conversions? :)

    Bersa Thunder 380 Problems

    I love this little pistol and you can't beat the price to value ratio on this little gem. However after about 300 rounds through it I had a couple of problems. The first is the grip screw. After shooting less than a box during a session both screws will loosen siginificantly. Should I use...

    Where Can I Find A Barrel Rasp?

    Many many moons ago I worked on a .22 rifle that I wanted to free float the barrel. My brother-in-law had a barrel rasp that made the job go quickly vs. a dowel rod and sandpaper. I have another .22 rifle project I'd like to do the same thing on. However my brother-in-law parted with the barrel...

    Indiana CCW No Longer Valid for NICS Check

    Well I just got a bad news letter today in the mail. I hold a CCW permit in the State of Indiana. Doing so allows me to instantly buy a handgun or long gun at a gun shop or from a vendor at a gun show without going through the FBI background check. The letter today from the ATF says that...

    I recently purchased a Lyman auto primer feeder for my Lyman Orange Crush single stage "O" press to speed up the process a bit. I followed the instructions for installation and manuevered it around quite a bit but it still only works about half the time. One time it may work then another time...

    A Mossy 590A1 is now mine!

    I've been looking for a HD as well as a plaything shotgun for a while now. I've been reading the posts and decided on a Mossy 590 with parkerized finish and ghost ring sights. So I went to the Indy 1500 show yesterday but unfortunately couldn't find what I wanted (except one dealer had a...
