I'm looking for some help removing some groundhogs from a friends property. I'm not looking for sport just looking to get them gone. The property is a solid hour or more from my house, so I can't pop in and out to their place to hunt like I'd like. There are a couple of openings on two...

All, I'm interested in how we typically carry our firearms. I'm not talking bug guns or pocket guns. The question is, for your 4-5 inch (some would say full sized carry) handgun, what style belt holster do you typically use. The options come from the descriptions in the IDPA rule book...

All, Thinking of recommending this to a friend who wants a pistol. Would plink and use for HD, and seems very cost conscious. My immediate thought was a police glock trade in, but haven't seen those lately. Then I thought "bersa .380" as it's got a great rep, but I don't like the .380 as...

I think it was last night, and in his section showing odd newspaper ads, he showed some store with a sale on ammo. He highlighted a disclaimer "sales limited to XX boxes per customer" where XX was like 20 or 40 boxes. The audience cracked up. I thought... Man, not worth bothering with...

I'm helping a new shooter think thru a pistol purchase. He likes the idea of 9mm, and is thinking to use it as a bedside gun. He's left handed to boot and would really like a left handed slide release. I understand that HK's have this option, but am I missing others? I've explained...

It's too bad that the 9mm single stack has a bull barrel, as this makes it illegal for IDPA. I was just looking for a 1911 single stack for my son to start IDPA with, and thought I'd found the ticket. I was even willing to run the first 2K rounds thru it to get it broken in right :) Then...

I really enjoy shooting 3gun matches, and I've got a local match that allows unlimited mag capacities. I'd like to run my High power. I've got 17 round KRD mags (5 yr old from CDNN) that have just started to tire (I think the feed lips need a tweak). Mostly these have run 100%. I found one...

Was shooting my Colt Govt 380 at a BUG IDPA match. I don't shoot this gun much, so I wanted to get some rounds thru it. I had a problem which leads to this question. My slide release would work it's way out to the left during fire. Of course, the slide won't cycle when it moves to the left...

I'm trying to work on a gun purchase from their trading ads, but I can't get on. Anyone else have this problem? Possible server down? Here's a link to the thread that I'm looking to read .... glocktalk link

Looking to put a P16-40 in the gun stable :) I've looked around on the gun auction sites but haven't found the right deal. Tried Auctionarms, gunsamerica, gunbroker, GT ads and of course the ads here. Is there an internet dealer that specializes in Para's? Or at least carries them...

Well, not me, but a friend that I've rekindled an interest in firearms. He has a shotty that's about a half a country away. Someone at his work told him it would need to be recieved by a FFL. I'm thinking it doesn't change ownership, so it could be shipped, right? It's been his since...

All, I am thinking about a 1.5 turkey scope for 3 gunning games. I want something that will give a large field of view. I'm looking at the simmons turkey scopes, and just saw the smith and wesson scope too. They have differing FOV @ 100 yds, and it got me wondering why. What...

I'm contemplating buying 2 hi cap mags for a firearm I own. Had to gulp when the price was mentioned. Not that the mags are that expensive, but that the gun wasn't. If I buy 2 of these mags, I'd have spent $40 more than the firearm (I'm going in with someone else to get the group discount...

Title says it all. Looking for best sources for 20GA slugs and buckshot. Doesn't need to be premium, it's for gaming (3 gun or shotgun side matches). Be looking to pick up a case or two of each. Got local stores (Wal-Mart, Dicks, Galyans), gun shows, and have purchased by internet...

Anyone know the legality of taking 2 preban magazines and creating a higher capacity mag from them? I heard that some folks take G3/Cetme 20 round mags (very inexpensive starting materials) and hack and weld them into 30 rounders. Almost seems like the same thing as adding +2 mag bases to...

I'm looking for help in my letter to the ATF. Below is the body. Any help is welcomed. Also, looks like I should write this, not email? Any Idea if this is a good addy to use? Anyone else already ask this question of the ATF. Letter is between the x's. It has some formatting that wasn't...

I'm thinking about getting a $300 semi that would be mostly for plinking/fun. While these aren't the nicest rifles built, they seem to offer a lot of value for a little $$$$ and that always turns my head. So help me compare. I'm thinking a gunshow purchase. Looking for the SAR1 AK...

Just saw this story. I wonder if the bullet hit him on the way up (believable) or on the way down (what ARE the odds, something like a billion to one). A while back, I looked into the speed a bullet would have falling back to the earth, and ~300 ft/sec was an estimate I saw. (est of...

All, After realizing that my p99 pistol has a "proprietary light rail" (double speak for "it won't fit anything else") I began to wonder how widespread this phenom is? I have a deal lined up on a streamlight M-6 unit. I'm hoping to get mounts for my AR,Saiga (I think it'd have to be a...

I've busted the arm of my shooting glasses one too many times. I picked up a hard eyeglasses case from Walmart last night, but it won't quite fit my glasses in:mad: So, can anyone point me in the right direction? I like to keep all of my gear in a range bag, that way I can just pick it up...
