I’m very familiar with reloading centerfire rifle and handgun cartridges, but I’ve never reloaded a shotshell in my life. I’m completely uneducated on the presses for reloading shotshells. What kind of investment would I be looking at to safely and effectively reload 2.5” and 3” standard...

I've shot some 12 gauge over the years and found that while old style loads can be a little too open, loads with a good shot cup and especially Federal flight-control wads pattern really well. Lately, I've been impressed by Federal's new "handgun" 000 buck loads in .410 - both the 2.5 and 3 inch...

I'm pretty familiar with regular firearms, but not so much on NFA items aside from the most basic stuff. Is anyone familiar with the trusts Silencerco is setting up for about $140? What would a person have to do in addition to buying one of these trusts to legally acquire NFA firearms? Had...

I've been thinking on a .50 caliber rifle lately. I'd like it light enough that getting it from the arms locker to the car won't give you a hernia. Great accuracy potential and durability would be good, but a single shot would be fine - no need for rapid fire really. The semi-autos are way...

So this is a cartridge rifle, but certainly a Black Powder one, so I figure the black powder guys are the place to start. A friend of mine bought it on gunbroker today. I recognized the rolling block action and I know the 12.7x44R round is a .50 caliber round and that Buffalo Arms can apparently...

I once again find myself in a situation where a brown bear or polar bear could potentially be a threat to my welfare. Less likely the polar bear, more likely a brown. Right now I've got an SP-101 with 180 grain Buffalo Bore hard cast rounds. It's not really enough, but it was paid for, I shoot...

So at one point in the not so distant past, I really liked the look of the '51 Navy with a square triggerguard. Uberti was making them at the time. Usually, I'm a .44 kind of guy, but the square triggerguard and serpentine curves on that Navy just looked awesome. I immediately wanted one. I...

So I stumbled on to this photo on Facebook on US Palm's page... https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/q86/s720x720/10380275_10152481694371699_6645927379734643360_n.jpg?oh=64738dab2fffd5c506be45718960b261&oe=54DF6427&__gda__=1424526753_7ae312bb42496429f877a0a44c52e1f5...

I inherited a Rohm RG 66 .22 LR. Basically, it's a smaller framed cheaply made single action. It worked fine for years (in spite of its cheap nature), but a few months ago the cylinder stopped locking up when the hammer is cocked. I took the triggerguard off today and found that the spring that...

I just found this recall posted at TTAG and wanted to pass it along. Apparently the rifles in question may have defective disconnectors, which can cause malfunctions or doubling. http://ruger.com/SR556VTRecall/index.html

Long story short - the Canadians have been looking for a replacement for the aging No.4 Enfields issued to their arctic rangers for a few years. No surprise, they've been thinking the right path is a modernized Enfield... and it's hard to argue that. Anyhow, complications persist...

Pretty self-explanatory. We live in a world where most things are mass produced and most people are OK with that. Our guns aren't a whole lot different. Mass produced guns, sometimes with a few small parts swaps, serve most of our purposes just fine. Consumers are able to switch springs, sights...

Catching a little biathlon action on the Olympics. What kind of rifles are these guys using?

Just watching a rerun of Pawn Stars and a guy brought a Lefechaux revolver into the shop. I know pinfire ammo is potentially dangerous stuff in and of itself and probably not easy to come by unless you're pretty crafty (meaning Bushyhands94 probably has half a crate of it assembled), but it...

Here's the thing... Any time we discuss states like CT or NY, several of us make a statement along the lines of "you guys in NY should move away. There's room in Texas." As danez71 has pointed out a few times, it's hard to win rights back when you don't stay and try to win them back. Logic...

Some of us sent donations to the recall efforts in CO and those donations made a difference. We helped recall two CO state senators and helped force a third to resign. Not all we'd hoped for, but it was a start. What can be done to help the guys in CT? As I understand it, there is supposed...

So... I'm thinking about building a 9mm AR-15. I realize that it's not as powerful as a 5.56, but I think it would be a fun plinking rifle with some potential for home defense. Who is building decent 9mm uppers? What kind of magazines do they take? And what parts will I need to convert the...

From Bravo Company Manufacturing's home page Our stance on the 2nd Amendment. "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." The founding fathers made the right to keep and bear arms...

So PSA's recent deals, like a $59 stripped blemished lower, got me thinking about this. I'll be acquiring one in the not too distant future, be it on that deal or another. Anyhow, if you were taking advantage of that, how would you build it? I'm thinking of just biding my time over the...

I've only got one credit card right now. While I do get a minor benefit from it, I'd prefer a card that gets me some kind of sporting good or shooting accessories benefit. What kind of deals do you guys get with Cabelas cards? What other options exist for a guy who'd rather rack up free Pmags...
