Have any of you ever stripped a MkIII of the enamel coating and had it refinished? Mine is from 1989, functions like a champ, but, the old girl is showing her age.

500 rounds fired. Anything I should be aware of before buying? Any known issues of that era pistol?

I've got a BSA No5 Mk1 that I am trying to "un-Bubba." Three issues that I'm having trouble solving: 1. At some point in it's life, Bubba cut back the flash hider to just ahead of the barrel and removed the bayonet lug. Unfortunately, No5 Mk1 flash hiders are as scarce as elephants in the...

I picked up a P320 SubCompact 9mm the other day and was looking for full size 17 rounders...no luck at any local sellers. How long does it usually take before a new model's mags generally become available at local retail? I've looked for P320 mags, there are none, and while the P250 mags...

Can someone confirm, or deny, that SIG P250 Mags will work in the P320?

I've been looking for a PPKS, off and on for the last, 30 years. Something else always caught my eye and I never picked one up. Stupidly sold a Ranger PPK about 10 years ago...was too small for my big hands, but the PPKS and PP fit me fine. So I'm looking again as it's an open spot in the...

I've been racking my brain looking for a compact 9mm or .380ACP pistol. It must: 1. Dead nuts reliable (at least as mechanically as anyone can make them.) I don't have time, or will I be able to, send it in for service. 2. Minimum of 6 round mag. 3. Magazines readily available at my LGS. 4...

Interesting article on juries and their perception of weapons used in self defense scenarios. http://www.armedcitizensnetwork.org/images/stories/Network_2012-10.pdf also read "What every gun owner needs to know about self defense law."...

I've been out of the shooting sports for awhile but am now looking for a 19, or 26. Having read about the problems the Gen4 17 and 19 are having, do these issues extend to the 26? Or, if I want a 19 sized package, am I better switching to the 23?

Anyone know in what year Smith switched to Novak sights on the 6906? Heinei: I have an older(?) model with the standard sights.

I've been out of the shooting sports for awhile and haven't kept up. Lately, I've been looking for an inexpensive .45 and I'm considering the Ruger P345D. I notice that there were some issues with them three or four years ago. Has Ruger ironed out the problems? If you have one, I'd like to...

Anyone ever dealt with these folks? http://www.esa-swords.com/index.html

another serious training facility? How many rounds did you shoot over what period of time? How did the weapon function?

For the rest of your life. It must be capable of defending your life as well as putting food on the table. It must also be concealable in a HIGHLY anti-gun environment. (ETA: Concealable on your person.) What do you choose?

Several months ago I picked up a well used Smith 64-5 in .38Special. The entire top of the barrel and the top of the frame are worn, so there is no stainless finish left...only a smooth grey metal. Ideally, I'd like to replace the barrel, as the lands and grooves have seen better days...

1. What kind of weapons do you take on vacation? 2. How much ammunition do you take? I usually drag along my daily carry items, a SOG Flash 2, a small can of FOX pepper spray, and a Glock 19 with three or four mags (an increase of 2-3 mags for vacation.) But, because the world is...

Is it possible to get a Garand in the $650-$725 range outside the CMP?

I'm looking, again, for a good .22 rifle. What I'm looking for is this. The absolutely most drop dead reliable, take a pounding, abuse me all day, every day, for ten years (you know what I mean) .22 you can recommend. Assume all due care and cleaning will take place. I have no preference...

Okay guys, I've got the AR pistol fever but I'm not sure it's worth the expense. Is it just a high(er) powered .22, or is it possible to actually get some bullet expanding energy out of a short barrel with the right ammunition? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.

Who supports the Constitution in the next election? Frankly, I see no one.
