I am just starting into Class 3 (NFA) for retail as well as myself later down the road. During my research at least 8 of the 10 owners of Class 3 (NFA) items went with trusts and 7 of those got their trusts from Sean Cody. All those recommended the trust and also Sean Cody. He has a website...

I have a 3 inch Model 66. The gun is a keeper for now. Yea, until the next "I can't live without" shows up. Anyway, the front sight needs to be replaced as it is buggered up and too tall. Any ideas on a gold post or red ramp and were to find one. Something my over 60 eyes will pick up...

I retail and I will say what folks who are regulars tell me. Stick to one brand on mags. I.E. do not mix parts on a mag. A quality name brand will work well in most quality guns. Meaning. If you have a weak spring in your Wilson mag. Mail the mag to Wilson. Clients of mine received...

Not trying to downplay in any manner the value of lasers. I am 60 and my eyes have changed. :( As most of us do. I have changed to the gold line for the front sight or a gold dot with the rear sight for both as wide as allowed. I do not have the precision I used to with it but do have...

I have two Wilson Combat, one built on a Rock River when they first started on AR. The other got later 2008 as a back up in the event my primary ever had an issue. The first one has served me as a patrol rifle for 7 years and the only issue is I do not shoot it enough and I cannot get it to jam...

The good buys are around but as with all good buys, they are scarce and last about 5 seconds. I've been in retail for about 30 years and learned from making my fair share of stupid, "the best price is not best value" errors. You may spend a bit more from a known source that has a...

Have you thought about the Springfield Rangemaster. ?????

There is a bit of name in whatever gun you get but keep in mind the name is normally earned not given. I retail the 1911 and specifically the custom as well as the one man shop. Best recommendation, is be patient and target preowned from a known source. Meaning when there is a discount...

This is redundant in what many have said before. Keep in simple and similar. Shotgun, pump number 4 buck. Remington 870. Revolver 38 plus p, a couple of Colt Pythons I have had for 28 and 35 years respectively I know all have theories or possible scenarios, just keep it simple.

I carry not one but two. My primary line of work has made a bit more cautious or may be a bit more aware of what can happen. I also realize random violence is a very low percentage but it is increasing in frequency and violence by someone who knows you is significantly higher percentage...

Congratulations. Owning a functional piece of history is great. I got real, real lucky about 4 years ago and a parts gun went by. I bought it for as always too much money but it was for the frame. Colt 1911 not A1 with a serial number of 191111. Found out it was made in 1918, I got a WW1...

Are you selling because you want to or need to. Figure the one that has the least use to you. With what everyone has said and you have a duplicate in 9mm, sell one of the 9mms, the one that has the least use to you.

Nope, I can say that as my little retail operation is still chugging along at the same rate. I have seen a bunch more in the used, especially the Rock Islands, Taurus, and the lower or economy guns getting recycled. Not too mention more of the Kimbers seem to be recycled in favor of higher...

Go with what you can control because you cannot miss fast enough if you cannot control it. A hit with a 9 beats a miss with a 45 any day and conversely a hit with a 45 beats a miss with a 9 anyday. Personally I like 9mm with a real bullet in it. Do I keep a .45 around, HECK, yes. But I...

Go with what fits your hand, dress, and life style. For me I keep a 625 .45acp Mountain Gun for snakes and dogs when working the property. I got a few acres. Snake loads will not cycle a semi auto. Also when one hand is occupied on the steering wheel of a machine, or something...

Several of the above posters speaks volumes in what they have said. Many folk have their "pet peeves" as well as their "pet loads" for what ever purpose. From seeing what others have been through and also having "seen the elephant," shot placement is of major importance but shot placement...

Please do not take any of what I say as offensive, I just have a small retail operation to help pay for my "shooting habit" and also have been posting on forums since they started. From my experience of personal "duh's" and watching other's get "duh'ed" from being less then wise. Anyway...

Just an thought and I have seen it in somes places for use, keep the pump shot gun and change the load to number 4 buck shot. 27 or so pieces of lead at about the size of a 22 round at one time in the space of any size room (15" to 25") should be adequate for any situation with the excpection...

I have to add and as several of the above mentioned "practice" ammo. Hits count. Misses don't. Every miss has an unintended party, a lawsuit and more restrictive gun laws attached. So from one who has investigated the "misses" and seen the consequences first hand. Please take the...

I have owned a few of these and have never had a function issue. I have one I carried in my ballistic vest for a short time but the corrosion was the issue. The thumb safety is a bit slow but this was not a primary gun. The ones I have owned shoot very, very, well with european ammo i.e...
