my friend at work has a mkIII in .357 with an 8" heavy barrel, adj sights, and medallion grips. he asked me to look it up in gun traders guide to see how much its worth but the book i have says the mkIII was only made in 4 and 6" barrel lengths from 1969 to 1978. sn# is 49xxxL has this thing...

i got this pistol 5 months ago and haven't had any trouble but the last time i shot it i noticed somthing odd. in fast reload drills i would shoot till empty, drop the mag, and when i slam home a fresh mag, the slide would trip and load the tube. when i do this slower (not as forcefuly)the slide...

i can't find it anywhere in my books, but a friend of mine at work has a shotgun from his grandfather, that know ones ever heard of. he says it has the word RANGER on the barrel in scripted letters, it's a side-by-side in 20ga. and it's in 90% condition. he says his papaw bought it used in the...

just got a new mouth to feed, very pleased. handled excelently. 150 rounds of winchester white box fmj's and jhp's zero faliure's. 20 of the jhp's were as fast as i could fire with no problems. the only thing i don't like is the unadjustable sights are set about 4 inches to high. long shots...

has anyone here ever done this ? the reason i ask is because i just did. i have a stainless rifle and the first thing i do before i hit the woods is tape the gun up. a friend of mine at work has a powder coat outfit and offered to make it matte black for me so i did it. i'm just wondering now if...

i"ve been looking over the information sest pool, trying to find a good, long range scope for my big rifle. me and a buddy of mine have been trying our hand at long range shots, and the scope i have (a 4x16 redfield) while a good scope, just ain't gettin it done at a 1000yds. before you say it...

if a guy was about to go on a hunt out west for big browns do you think a hyper fast .30 would do. i have a 300RUM that i have no doubt will kill anything on the planet, however i've never been hunting for dangerous game and the thought occured to me that, this game can kill you right back. the...

i was looking at a real beautiful piece cedar the other day, it had rich color and swirling grain,very unique, and i just wondered why no one makes a stock out of this wood. all you see is walnut. is there a reason?, too brittle?, too hard to shape?, or is it just to heavy? any thoughts would be...

i just read an article in one of the outdoor rags and they mention gain twist rifling, where the rifling starts out almost straight and then tightens to final rate before the bullet exits. supposed to gain a little velocity like this. anyone familiar with this, know more about it, would love to...

my friend just bought a desert eagle in .50-AE. and just for giggles bought a 30$ bsa red dot at wally world or werever, and guess what, one shot did the trick. the glass was rattleing and you couldn't see the dot anymore. also, the scope must have changed the recoil dynamic some how because the...

found a deal on an older p7 squeeze cocker, and was thinking it would be a good carry gun. question is does any mfr. make good leather for it (concealed holster) thats solid and accessable at the same time. seems like a short stubby barrell and larger handle might be hard to fit well. would like...

i was telling a buddy at work about a new scope i just purchased on e-bay. it's a swarovski 3-10 x 42 av series with an A4 reticle NIB. my wife found it and did some talkin on the phone to the seller and got it for 600$ even. a pretty good deal i think. my friend at work was like "dang you got...

anyone who shoots the 300rum, you might want too know that midway is having a sale on federal: 165 gr. solid base ammo for 22.60 a box (usually 45$ a box) if you reload this is cheaper than brass by it's self most places :what:

anyone shot this thing yet, just read about it in a gun rag and was curious. :scrutiny:

i have a marlin 883 ss in .22MAG and it's a wonderful little gun. i've noticed a pattern though, after 20 or 30 rounds it starts to scatter the shot pattern a bit. nothing real detrimental, i've never missed an animal with this gun, but it is noticeable. i sight in at an inch high at 85 yards...

well, this ought to give you jackals something to chew on. I was talking to a friend the other day that hunts the wilds of WV. said he took his 300WM with him and shot a doe from hilltop to hilltop (across the holler for you hillbillies) at about 200yds. the deer droped in its tracks, put one...

when did sako stop chambering the 300 rem. ultra mag. if there's any historians out there i'd appreciate the info. i was given a SAKO 75 stainless synthetic for my birthday a year ago by my wife. she found it at a pawn shop with a redfield 4-16x attatched. apparently the owner wasn't a gun guy...

a few months ago i got a model 40 12 gauge for my birthday, it's a little rough on the outside but functions beautifully. i've never seen one before and knowone else i know has either. the old man i got it from said that it was pattered on a browning design, and that it was made in 1940 and 41...

I can't believe I'm still taking flack for this, but it seems to me people don't know how effective this little round is. I wrote a thread a few weeks ago asking advice on using 22 WMR for eastern coyotes. A third of the responders said go ahead, while the majority said no way it's not enough...
