I'm sitting here looking at my RRA .22 LR magazine and notice that the feed lips are plastic. I was thinking of buying a couple more as I'll soon be retired and have more time to shoot. Does someone make a better one before I spend my money? Thanks, EDIT Left out the word "Magazine" in...

I've been in a panic for the last two days. Yesterday I realized I didn't know where my suppressor was. I took it out May 8 to a public range and used it on my rifle, then I brought the rifle in it's case and my range bag home. The rifle went into the house, the range bag stayed in the...

I started looking for a new compact pistol with a red dot. After looking for a while and seeing availability I starting thinking about having my S&W Shield 9mm (V1) and my .40 S&W Compact cut for a dot. If I buy a new pistol these are likely going to be safe queens. So, has anyone had the...

I want to buy a rimfire suppressor. I've heard of trusts. It sounds like they lost a bit of usefulness during Obama. I'm not married, I don't have children, I'm the oldest sibling in a family where dementia gets us before death. If I just register the suppressor to me then my executor (not...

I have two questions actually. If a case that hasn't had the crimp swaged is encountered, what happens? If a SP .45 acp case in encountered while loading LP, what happens? How do you recover? Is it a major event? The reason I'm asking is I've been loading using a Lee loadmaster. I typically...

I've been wanting a Ruger Old Army with adjustable sights. I think I'd like stainless over blued steel. What is a reasonable price for a used one as they haven't made them in a long time. I figure when I retire, I can spend a lot of time at the pistol range for little money shooting one of...

I bought a S&W Bodyguard .380 for a deep concealment handgun last week. This afternoon I went out with it using a mixed selection of .380 ammo. The thing choked on Privi, Privi took 0-3 tries to set it off and the indent on the primer was minimal. Some of my hand loads also took a retry...

I have a M&P shield and a XDM, I don't have a Ruger or Glock offering in 9mm to compare. Which one has the most case head support and which the least? I picked up and reloaded a case that I didn't notice the bulge in it and wondered what it might have been shot in. 0.008" expansion, likely a...

I have a few bucks in my health flex spending account I have to use or loose so I was thinking of having my optometrist make me a set of eye glasses for pistol shooting. I'm near sighted and have to wear progressive lens to see. They stink for pistol shooting as I have to shoot out out the...

I was working the range today during our sight in fund raiser for my shooting club when I had a gent show up with an AR-15 with a 7.62x39 upper on a standard AR lower. I liked the looks of it and the thought of putting a .30+ cal barrel on one of my lowers for hunting Michigan whitetail...

The club bought a new plate rack and I tried it out today with my 442 J frame. Sadly I was wiffing on the larger plates. I guess my eyes degraded a bit more since last fall or it was the lighting. Since I typically carry the J frame when I carry, I took a peek at lasers since I need some...

My barrel should be arriving fairly soon, I'm wondering if I should install the buffer tube and the barrel nut dry or use an assembly lubricant. What is the current thinking on this? I have a Brownells order ready to send out and will add lube to it if I need some. Thanks, Clutch

I just epoxy bedded a Weaver picatinny rail on my Savage 11 that I'm going to shoot HP Silhouette with this year. Since I believe I have to single load rounds in HP, I'm thinking of taking a jewelers saw and severing the material over the loading/ejection opening to make single loading easier...

I'm looking at lower parts kits and most don't call out if the trigger is single stage or two stage so I'm assuming they are single stage. RRA, charges roughly double for a 2 stage trigger in a parts kit, are there more parts? I don't understand how the cost doubles. Can someone clue me in?

I just bought a android based tablet and wonder what apps I should look at? Thanks, Clutch

I was over on the e-sarco site and saw an offering for German spec ar15 bolts which indicated that one lug was removed. Why? Thanks, Clutch

Do you think Christie will appoint someone more freedom friendly?

I have a Ruger in .22 hornet. I was told that Lil' gun was a wonder powder in this cartridge so I bought some. I've been told you almost can't put too much of this powder in the case. I've never seen signs of pressure but I never got it to shoot well so I've moved on to trying 1680 and 296...

I heard on the news that the gun shop that sold some of the weapons used by Lanza lost their FFL after ~500 violations. What I'd like to know is just what the violations were. Did some one abbreviate IN as IND, get dyslexic with a serial number or was there a pattern of just not doing things...

I'd like to weight sort some of my brass. My beam scale isn't that fast so a digital scale sounds like it would be useful. I don't think I'd ever use one to weigh powder though. I'll trust my beam scale and my check weights instead. So what digital scale should I look at for sorting...
