    Ok. I admit it. I like AR pistols now.

    I just put this together. 8" chambered in .300 Blackout. Man this thing is a hoot. I think the SIG brace really makes AR pistols more useable and less of a novelty (for me anyways). I do need to move the handstop forward though.

    Light and mount for AR

    My next purchase is going to be a light for an AR I recently built. The idea is simple, lightweight, no frills compact package, and nothing crazy expensive. Going to go on a midlength Moe handguard. Don't care about strobes, programming, anything over say 200 or so lumens etc. I also only really...

    Need ideas for sling attachment

    I'm debating the best way to rig a vcas sling to this ar I'm finishing up. Here's the dilemma: Upper is a noveske skinny moe (comes with midlength moe handguards). Only has a bottom sling swivel which I'll probably take off....I want a side attachment point. Stock is a CTR. I don't know of...

    Rail mounted sight accuracy

    Just talking FSB versus rail mounted iron sights. For the last few years I've noticed the trend for the AR is long rails, some kind of optic, and flip up BUIS. So obviously the FSB started to lose some popularity. I can understand not wanting it if you have an acog/aimpoint/eotech on there...

    Complete upper: Noveske, JP, or ?

    Putting together another AR. I'm going to get an upper from probably either Noveske or JP. I'm looking at a 14.5" or 16". The Noveske I'm looking at is the Afghan 14.5". I like the NSR rail model and probably a pinned battlecomp 1.5 on it. The JP I'm thinking of is a 16" with the supermatch...

    Why not 6.5 Creedmoor?

    I'm deciding what barrel to buy for a new bolt action rifle I'm building. This is going to be used for target shooting at 100-300, and sometimes 600 yards. I'd like to get out there further but I'm still looking for a place to do it. I know going with .308 is a good standby and 6.5cm doesn't...

    Mauser 98 - scout-style project rifle?

    So I picked up a Mauser 98 recently. It is one of the large rings that was changed to 7.62x51 by FN. The bolt and action #s match but the stock doesn't. The action and bore are in fantastic condition and the stock is in good shape (no cracks, etc). I'm not sure what it's worth but I would guess...

    Have revolver prices skyrocketed in general?

    What is with the pricing I am seeing everywhere? I was looking at getting a new 4" stainless .357 recently and I can't believe how much they've gone up. I know the price of all guns have gone up but it seems revolvers took the biggest jump by far. A year or so ago a GP100 was around $550. I just...

    Glock Gen4 bugs worked out yet?

    It looks like Glock has made some changes in the Gen4 pistols a couple of times now and I haven't heard much talk about them since. Did they get them ironed out or should I still be leary? It looks like they changed the extractor and the recoil spring assembly and possibly more. I have had...

    Sears and Roebuck Ranger 16 gauge?

    Just picked one up for next to nothing...figured I'll tinker with it. The only thing I see on it is "Sears and Roebuck and Co Ranger 16 gauge 105-20". I don't see any other model numbers other than that. I see there was a recall on mostly 12 gauge models but a few 16s as well. None of the...

    Downsides to a Lanber 2097?

    I hear a lot of good things about these guns so I'm considering one (the sporting 30"). The only downside I can tell is that there's not many dealers and there seems to be only one place in the US that does warranty work. I've seen a couple of pics of some people who got an off-center sight but...

    Recoil reduction advertising

    I keep seeing ads for all these new types of stocks and higher end model guns that say they reduce a certain % of recoil. For instance, I saw an ad for the Benelli Vinci and they say it has 70% recoil reduction. I've never shot a vinci but I've shot other Benelli shotguns and I thought they had...

    What is this plastic-like coating I keep seeing on gun parts?

    Lately I keep seeing this black coating on gun parts. I'm not talking about something someone sprayed onto it in their garage. These parts are coming from the factories like this. I've seen stripped AR lowers coated with it, buffer tubes, shotgun accessories, all sorts of stuff. It has a...

    Who has a STI GP6 / Grandpower K100?

    Anyone have any experience with them? What's the good/bad on them? They look like an interesting design. Not the best looking gun on the block but they interest me for some reason. Where can you buy magazines for these and how much do they go for? I can't seem to find any online anywhere.

    Choosing a pistol specifically for Production

    Sorry in advance for the length of this. I might be over-analyzing but what the heck. I had to sell a lot of guns recently and I didn't leave myself anything that could be used in uspsa production. So now I'm going to get myself one to have some fun with this summer. I've pretty much narrowed it...

    Any news on S&W's M&P .22LR pistol yet?

    I hear there's a picture or 2 floating around but I haven't seen it yet. Anyone have any info on it or know where to find the pics?

    Why no holster patterns anywhere?

    I've looked all over the place online and I never see any holster patters anywhere. Why is that? The only ones I see are the cowboy style holster patterns that came from the old Tandy website and stuff like that. I realize that some commercial ones are probably copyrighted but why don't I even...

    Need monogrammed pocket knife for 11 year old

    I'm looking around for a pocket knife for my 11 year old nephew. The trick is I want it monogrammed with his name on it and I need it in time for Christmas. I'm thinking about some classic models like a Swiss Army sd or soldier or a Case peanut. Something useful that he'll keep around for a...

    CCW Holder Kills Patient After Doctor Stabbed

    Yet another case where a concealed carry permit holder comes to the rescue (and those are few and far between in Mass). Word on the street says he entered the room while the guy was still on top of her, stabbing her. He then shot the psychopath 3 times. 2 shots to the body and 1 to the head...
