    Sold my Trailside, Couldn't hold onto the money for long--Ruger MK III Hunter

    I decided I would sell my Trailside which I have had since they came out. I really liked the way it shot and the light weight, but I always had concerns about it's longevity, especially with HV .22 ammo. I found a local buyer and sold it Thursday last week. In thinking about what to...

    New Knife AUK drop point

    Today I received my AUK knife from the group buy set up by HSO here on the board. The only other knife I own that is close in price to this one is my Spyderco Military. Something about this design intrigued me, so I dipped into some saved birthday cash and ordered one with a drop point design...

    Browning BL-22 Question

    I grew up shooting a pair of BL-22's my cousins had. Every time I'd visit them in Utah, we'd hop on the motorcycle, cross the canal, and head to the foot hills to shoot what ever moved. I've got great memories of these rifles and lately, I've been looking at them again with an eye to buying...

    Did Ruger ever make???

    A Stainless Super Single Six with the 4 5/8" barrel? I'd love to get one to set aside for my daughter. I think the shorter barrel is just perfect on the single six. Thanks for any info.

    AR15 configurable float tubes: JP VTAC vs. YHM

    Title pretty much says it. I'm looking at adding a forearm kit to my 18" barreled AR and don't need four full length rails. So I'm looking at kits that give you a tube and the option to attach rails where you need/want them. JP has the neat looking VTAC and YHM has their version. Each is...

    Redhawk 4" .45 Colt Review on Gunblast

    The review of the new production Ruger Redhawk in .45 colt with a 4" tube is up on Gunblast. HERE is the link. I've always said I wanted this gun. I had plans to build one, but this will be a much more affordable path to a customized mountain gun now. The only improvements I can see this...

    '03A3 sight hood removal?

    I have a Springfield 1903A3 that my father-in-law passed along to me. It is in very good shape and I enjoy shooting it. The front sight has a hood that sits very low to the front sight. This makes getting a good sight picture difficult. Many of the pictures I see of the A3's don't show this...

    NPR interview with High School Teacher wanting to carry concealed--She did good!

    ON my way home tonight I heard an interview with a high school teacher in the Pac NW that has brought a case against the school district to allow her to carry her Glock 19 to school. She was articulate and avoided many of the classic "traps". You can listen to the interview here.

    Old Style AR colapsable stock

    I just found a discounted price on an old style M4 plastic adjustable stock kit. This kit doesn't have the "ribs" and is the old profile on the butt plate. I've always wanted to try an adjustable on my AR but was wondering if this was a good deal for $45 NIB. This is the kit with extension...

    Stripped AR Lower in Denver Area?

    I'll be in Denver for my brother's wedding early in September. I'd like to pick up a stripped lower soon and figured if there was a shop in the area that stocked lowers at a good price I might be able to drop by and take one home. Anyone know of a shop that has lowers in stock and at a...

    Lee Tumble Lube Bullet Molds

    I've been reloading for about 13 years. I've always used commercial cast bullets, but due to prices, I'm considering casting my own. I've got at least 50lbs. of wheel wieghts that would make good .45 pills. I've been looking at the Lee tumble lube molds. Curious what the story is on these...

    Best Price on AR Lowers?

    Back during the ban I built up an AR on a Bushy lower. I'm looking to lay up a small stash of lowers now for future builds. I understand there are many more players in the AR lower market now. What are the best values, places to buy, etc... for lowers these days. I don't need the Colt, LMT...

    Ohio CCW permit valid after moving out of state?

    Earlier this year, we moved from Ohio to North Dakota. ND doesn't honor OH's permit, but other states that I visit do. Does anyone know if my OH permit is still valid now that I've moved out of state? I searched the AG's website, but couldn't find a clear answer. Thanks, --usp_fan

    Value of Redhawk in .45 colt?

    I've always wanted a Redhawk to go with my .45 Bisley. I just found a used Stainless 5.5" barreled Redhawk in .45 colt at a local store. It's priced at $459.00. It appears to be in very good shape, and has a better DA pull than most redhawks I've tried. Ideally, whatever redhawk I get will...

    Original American Eagle Marked Luger?

    My friend's father recently passed down to him a Luger that was owned by his grandfather. It is in great shape and has the American Eagle crest on the barrel band of the receiver. I understand there were only a small number imported in the early 20th century for the US civilian market. Is...

    Got my 870!

    Monday I went to a local chain store (Sheel's) and picked up a new '06 model 870 express with a 26" barrel. I've been trying to find the right shotgun for me for the last year and a half. After buying and selling a Nova, and an 835, I realized the 3.5" guns were just a bit too long for me to...

    870 Barrel Length Question--buying a new shotty

    I'm going to buy a shotgun shortly. I've decided on the 870 Express as the best combination of utility, price, and fit for me. I can get it with a 28" barrel or a 26" barrel locally. The 28" is $10 less. I think I prefer the shorter tube, but I'm resonably aware that I'm a novice concerning...
