I know that longer sight radiuses are more accurate, but what about speed? It seems to me that having a longer sight radius would make it slower to line them up. Has anyone experimented with this? Does it make any difference? Between say a normal AR carbine sight radius and a 20" AR...

Is there such a thing as magnum 2 3/4" 12 gauge shells? Or does magnum simply mean 3"? And how does it relate to the height of the brass? I have some target birdshot with low brass, some Wolf rifled slugs with normal brass height, and some Remington 00 buckshot with really high brass. The...

I'm looking for some videos that go in to USPSA/IDPA techniques and also self-defense shooting. There are a lot of DVDs for sale out there but I'm not sure who is actually a credible authority. Which DVDs are recommended as credible, proven training?

I bought an XD 9 around 2005. What changes have been made to the XD since then, other than the slide finish? Are there different generations like glock, or is the one I have still the same as current production? I noticed some new magazines I bought are 16 rounds instead of 15 round that came...

Does anyone know if the 1911 wrap-around rubber hogue grips will fit on the new Ruger 22/45 MkIII which features replaceable grips?

I see these are going for $7-8000. Why are they half the price of an AR or AK? What are the downsides to these rifle? Parts?

Why does the Glock 19 RTF2 have regular straight slide serrations, but all the other models like the 17 have the curved ones? Why didn't they add the curved ones on the 19?

How accurate is shooting with the large sight ring (marked 0-2) on an AR15 carbine? What sort of groups should be normal at 100 yards with the 0-2 sight flipped up?

I am about to replace two entry doors on my house. Can anyone recommend the best way to beef up the jambs to protect the door from being easily kicked in? The doors themselves are cheap jeld-wen steel door from home depot (one has a window one doesn't.).

What would you do if your wife got a felony like a felony DWI or something? From my understanding you would have to get rid of your guns if you were to keep living together? Don't worry this has not happened to me, it's just a what-if scenario that popped in to my head just now.

I have an 870 that sometimes has a problem where the next shell won't get pushed forward. It feels like the magazine follower is stuck inside the tube and not pushing the shells forward. I have cleaned out the inside of the tube and can't feel any burs or anything inside. It is a gray plastic...

I want to get a starter gun my 13 year old cousin can use for some informal trap shooting (supervised) and possibly hunting later. I really do not know a whole lot about shotguns outside of home defense use. He's a smallish kid and I have back problems so I am thinking 20 gauge. I see a used...

I put my back out today and past experience tells me I will be stuck in the house for about a week. My basement is 20 yards long so I thought I could do some target practice down there with an air gun. Any recommendations? Something fairly cheap, that won't blow up the water heater if I hit...

In a few years I would like to build a hardened "green" house using ICF (insulated concrete) construction. I live in tornado country so it also needs to be tornado/storm resistant. These are some ideas I am throwing around in my head: 1 story ranch style with basement. ICF...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_rGxa4BJ9w I've never watched the show but I thought this clip was cool. What is the reason they would the have rifles onboard anyway? Polar bears? Defense? Or just for fun?

I want to buy 1000 rnds of Hydra-shock, Gold Dots or comparable for a decent price. I see Ammoman has them for about .50 per round but is perpetually out of stock. I can buy the 20 round boxes locally but they are over a buck per round :confused: Anywhere else?

What are the benefits of fluted barrels? I can see they would reduce weight but I only ever see them on target or bench rest guns so that seems redundant. The other thing I can think of is faster heat dissipation due to the larger surface area, but target shooting is pretty slow paced so again...

How useful do you consider ft/lbs as a measurement for hunting or self defense?

From what I understand, you are not allowed to have a SBR upper in the same house as an unregistered rifle lower. What if you have an AR pistol, which has a short upper and you also have a AR rifle? Is that allowed, as long as you never put the pistol upper of the rifle lower? What if you...
