I bought the 111FCXP3 Package series for about $400 about three years ago and thought that was a good deal for a quality gun. The MSRP for the same package is $519 versus $379 for the Edge XP which is also scoped. I can't really think where they could cut any more corners to save that kind of...
I noticed the change to Winchester branded items. When I looked closely I noticed that they carried the exact same items, just with the Winchester brand. I had purchased a Super Sling 2+ from them a while back and now that exact same sling design has Winchester written all over it. The Remington...
Kingofthehill,
What ration of powder to epoxy did you use for the sights? How did you apply the mixture to the sights? I want to try this but I want to do it right the first time.

I won a Ruger SR9 at a DU fundraiser and have not had a chance to shoot it yet, but last night I inserted an empty mag and cycled the slide. The slide lock would not hold the slide open. The slide hits the lock and keeps going forward into battery. It is starting to wear a groove into the lock...
As I understand it the Sheriff of a California county has precedent over the Chief of a particular city. If you apply to the Chief of the city in which you live they may issue. If you apply to the Sheriff of the county in which you live they shall issue. The Chief of a city can refer all CCW...
Thanks for all your responses. You all made points that I had not even considered. Sounds like the Mil-Spec is a lot better value for the money in terms of comfort and overall quality. Hmmmm...maybe I ought to check out the Loaded version. Now I see why 1911's can start to get expensive so...
I am just starting my pistol collection and would like to buy a 1911 style pistol. I have decided that it will be a Springfield, but I can't decide if I will get the basic GI version or the Mil-Spec. Functionally, why is the Mil-Spec better? With no experience with these types of pistols I am...
Today was my first time shooting my GP100 4". With both .38 Special and .357 Magnum my shots at 25 yards were all over the target while trying to maintain the same point of aim. I know I need to practice more at that range, but I don't know if the fixed sight gp100's are supposed to be zeroed...
Need gunsmith
I need help finding a gunsmith in the San Francisco Bay Area that can do a chamber casting to help me determine the caliber of my Arisaka Type 99. I have called several gun shops and gunsmiths and none of them could do it or were willing to do it. Please help me if you can. I...
Rifle caliber
I had thought that the rifle might be a different caliber since it has had so much work done to it. How would I find out what the correct caliber is? Would a well equipped gun shop be able to tell me or am I going to have to risk using an incorrect cartridge to find out?
I acquired a rifle from my great uncle that has the markings of an Arisaka Type 99, but it looks nothing like any other Arisaka Type 99 I have been able to find.
The barrel indicates that it is a Series 1 rifle from the Nagoya armory with a serial number of 73001. It does not have the mum on...

Looking to get a date of manufacture on a 12-gauge Model 37 that was handed down from my great-grandfather. The serial number is 120475. Thanks for any help.
