    Looking for a new carbine... Need suggestions

    For the last couple years I have been buying old bolt guns and have had little interest in modern autoloaders. Well, now it's time for a new home defense carbine. Looking for something light and handy, not set on caliber. It would also be my go-to evac rifle in case of disaster, etc. My home...

    Score at a local gun shop!

    Got off early today so dropped by a local father/son gun shop. For years I've been looking for a decent billie club. I've played around with a bunch and just never found one I liked. Well I walked into the shop and saw one sitting in the show case. Asked to fondle it and was immediately shocked...

    I am in need of a tomahawk...

    It all started on our annual man camping trip. Me and a few buddies leave the wives at home and go into the deep woods to camp. We then drink beer, sit around the fire and eat meat. Mostly just a couple days where we can throw off the constraints of the civilized world and be barbarians. Real...

    Time to build a monster

    So I watched Ghost and the Darkness the other night and it's got me yearning for a true bigbore traditional safari rifle. I have a P17 converted to .375 H&H but now I feel the need for something really outrageous. My base action will be a Mauser 98. Before all you puritans start howling, I have...

    Got to shoot a Blaser today

    I was at the range today with a few rifles I had never shot before. I noticed a couple of guys come onto the range with what looked like a large magnum. I was shooting a .375 H&H and I walked down to see what they had. A Blaser R93 in .375 H&H. What a beautiful rifle! I offered to let him try a...

    Thinking of a new project...

    Ok, I want to do a semi-custom rifle for hunting. Here's what I was thinking: Start with a Savage (I like the tang safety and Accutrigger) either 10 or 11 model. I am wanting to rechamber it to a caliber that would make the rifle unique, something out of the ordinary. So far I am thinking...
