God bless the Old Dominion State for continuing to fight for freedom!

I have a Marlin 39A "Golden Boy" .22 LR levergun. I want to mount a Leupold FX-I 4x28mm Rimfire Riflescope on it, using Warne QD Rings. I need your advice on the following issues: [1] What band of mounts should I use for quick-detach? Should I use one-piece or two-piece mounts? [2]...

Does anyone know of a slip-on recoil pad for the Puma Model 92. It comes with a steel buttplate. I'll be shooting .44 Magnum so I would like something softer, particularly since I've had rotator cuff surgery on my shooting shoulder.

I'm thinking of getting a Puma (Rossi) Model 92 .44 Magnum 24" rifle. I've seen many posts praising the Puma's action. I haven't seen any discussing its accuracy at 100 yards with iron sights. Does anyone have an info on how accurate a Puma 92 of any caliber is at 100yards with just iron...

I have had rotator cuff surger done on my right shoulder. I'm thinking of getting Puma 92 .44 Magnum 24" barrel for hunting. I don't even want to think of the recoil transmitted through a curved steel buttplate. Does anyone know of a rubber recoil pad that can be placed over, or in...

I'm thinking of buying either the Marlin 1894 or 1894 Cowboy in either .45 Long Colt or .44 Magnum. I'm hoping that you can advise me on the following two issues with respect to the .44 Magnum. 1) How loud is the .44 Magnum rifle (20" barrel) without hearing protection? 2) How bad...

I have a Ruger GP100 .357 Magnum 3" revolver. I am looking for a CCW holster. Which is the more practical carry for this medium-frame revolver -- IWB or OWB? Some say that the six-round cylinder is too bulky to carry IWB comfortably. I'm posting because I don't want to waste a lot of...

I recently had to order trigger and hammer springs from Charter Arms for my 1985 Charter Arms Bulldog .44 Special. The current Bulldogs use the same springs as the old ones. Does anyone know the poundage on the trigger return spring and the hammer spring. I am guessing that the trigger...

Takhtakaal, Let me clarify. My intent is to find a carry holster that I can also practice with. The two are not necessarily the same. Although I am primarily a revolver man, I did have a Walther PPK with a Bianchi synthetic IWB holster (unreinforced mouth with one metal retaining clip)...

I have a Ruger SP-101 3". I'm looking for a checkered wooden boot grip without finger grooves. Basically, the type of factory grip that used to come with the old 44 Special Charter Arms Bulldog. I want something concealable for CCW. Do you know of anyone who makes these aftermarket grips?

This is an indoor combat shooting group that meets once a week. The lead person trains the local sheriff's department. I have handled a revolver for 30 years.

I have a Ruger SP-101 3" for CCW. What do you think is the best IWB holster for a great deal of CCW range practice (drawing and firing, over and over again)? I am looking for a holster that is comfortable and concealable, but easy to reholster. I once had a Bianchi IWB synthetic holster...

I have seen a post that suggests that the Tucker IWB holster (Texas) does not have a reinforced mouth (leather or steel). Whether Tucker makes an excellent holster, I am a bit concerned that without reinforcement, the holster will eventually sag from usage; create greater friction on the draw...

I noticed that a great many owners of Eagle Secret Service grips do not have them checkered. I am interested in hearing your reason, particularly if you carry CCW. Many old-timers believed that checkering helped to reduce recoil. Are you not getting checkering because you are afraid that...

I noticed that Ruger GP100 revolvers have front and adjustable rear sights that are blued, while the rest of the gun is stainless steel. The only explanation that I can think of is that blued sights caused less reflective glare than stainless when the gun is sighted during daylight hours...

I carry a Ruger SP101 3" IWB for CCW. I have noticed that while the FBI holster cant makes the revolver slightly more concealable, and the break-wristed draw naturally pushes the gun to the front for better point shooting, it appears to be a slower draw than from a neutral cant holster...

I have a Ruger SP-101 3" for CCW. I'm wondering whether it would be smart to bob the hammer so that there is no chance of a clothing snag in case I have to draw from IWB. I don't believe that Ruger sells any hammerless parts. The real question is whether there is any reason to keep the...

I just bought a Colt Lawman, .357 Magnum, 4", blued. It needs refinishing due to some wear spots, scratching, and mild rust. This is strictly a CCW holster gun -- not a collector's piece. I have two choices on refinishing. [1] RE-BLUE. I could get the existing bluing stripped off, and...

Rexster Lucky devil!!! I saw your piece in a store, and would have bought it but for the Colt .45 chambering (ammo too expensive and .45 ACP has less recoil for follow-up shots). But I think that the Montado is better suited for CCW than the Blackhawk (shorter barrel length and...

Stormspotter I installed a Super Blackhawk hammer on my Blackhawk -- what a difference (along with an action tune)!!!
