Does anybody else ever grow weary of all the gun bashing that tends to pop up all over the place on gun forums? In the interest of full disclosure, I might have taken a few shots myself over the years. Granted, there are some cheap guns that we might hate to see people buy and stake their...

So, who has experience with foliage fighting shotguns? I'm partial to the Remington 870 or the Benelli Super 90. Shot size that works best for me is 7 1/2 or 8 shot. Cylinder or Improved Cylinder for low to mid-range branches, Full Choke/Turkey Choke for high ones. My opinions are...

I should be giving advice on this subject rather than asking about it. I've handloaded and fired between 75,000 and 100,000 rounds of .44. I can't seem to find any .44 240 gr. cast bullets locally and ordered some from Meister. It gave the option of .429 or .430 diameter. I really think most...

Check out the pic. One thing I've discovered is that the area where you clean and work on your handgun is important. If you have lots of ammo around, it just makes your guns feel more at home, as though they are truly loved!

Hey, anybody ever have a Colt SAAn (3rd gen) loading gate want to slide forward, just enough to interfere with the cylinder turning? Actually, it’s the case rims that catch on it, so bad that it locks up the cylinder. It’s my nephew’s gun, and I’m trying to help him with it. The gun is...

I've done about everything to a Glock except replace sights. How difficult is it to simply replace the front sight on a G26? I have the parts and just want to replace the stock front sight with a stock front sight. The original is finally getting a little rounded. I hesitate to mess with...

If you ever pack a 4" N frame around for shooting, what's your favorite holster or carry method? I'm in the market for a quality holster, either strong side or cross-draw, for a 4" 629. This would be for plinking walks around the farm, more than for concealed carry. One that would serve...

For those of you not fortunate enough to live in Paradise (Tennessee), I thought I'd just be mean and share with you that I'm driving to Dixie Gun Works (Union City, Tn) tomorrow morning. It's pretty much my annual pilgrimage to BP Mecca, where I stock up on the staples of life: musket caps...

I'm getting an occasional light firing pin strike with my 13-year-old Super 90. I 'm not sure I've EVER broken down the bolt/firing pin for a thorough cleaning. You suppose that, as can happen after extensive firing with a Glock or 1911, that it might just be some grit around the firing pin...

Can somebody look up this 629 (see pic) and advise me on how unusual it is? If you don't see anything unusual, for a 629, then you probably wouldn't have the necessary reference. Don't mean to be a smart alec; I don't have the reference either. Thanks,

Took delivery on my GSSF G29 this week. Shot about 100 rounds through it yesterday using three different magazines. No malfunctions, just smooth operating. I think I like it. As you can see from the pic attached, I had to get out the sledgehammer and anvil to do some gunsmithing on...

Having been shooting S&Ws since 1973, I 'm not so sure I like their changing the firing pin from the hammer to the frame. Guess I've not been paying attention lately (Too much Glocking), but I miss the old S&Ws. My two .44 mags are from the pin barrel era, and the other newer and smaller...

I have my 629 dragged out of the safe to shoot today. I haven't shot it too much; it's more or less like new. My question is, should I be shooting this baby much? It's a 1980 model 629 with recessed chambers and pin barred. I don't care if it's worth a few bucks more than the later models...

Anybody have one of S&W's Trail Bosses? What's the going price for one of these - don't see any suggested pricing at the S&W site. Also, anybody know how the availability is on these? I'm getting a Jones for one. I'd much prefer one with fluted cylinder with no porting, but that ain't...
