For that reason you just mentioned, about the .410, is why I was simply take aback by the recommendation. I am not as much an expert as the VTC person, but I do know that birdshot does not penetrate as much as buckshot or a solid slug. I also know, from first hand experience that a 20 gauge and...

Generally I lurk more than I post, but something has motivated me to post some comments that I think are of an important nature. They have to do with the results of penetration tests for various loads and firearms and how those who run them interpret their results. What has me hacked right at...

Color me confuzzled, but I would think that many rounds of ammunition wouldn't be really that much if someone is a collector, distributor or a retail dealer. I won't say how much ammuntion I keep on hand for retail and personal uses (I am a Class 01 FFL dealer), but I would love to have that...

I have two sets of five calibers For hunting specific duties (rifles): 1) .22 Rimfire (shorts, longs, long rifle) 2) .22-250 Remington 3) 7mm-08 Remington, 7mm Remington Magnum, .308 Winchester OR .30-06 Springfield 4) .338 Winchester Magnum 5) .375 Holland & Holland OR .416 Rigby...

Alright, so it might be overkill for hunting... What I want is a scope as an investment, one that I can purchase now and not outgrow for awhile, but won't be so specialized that it is a target scope only or a hunting scope only. I believe I have to start somewhere and at the moment the...

Ok, so far I have learned.... ...that Badger Ordnance and TPS don't have scope bases to fit my particular model of Savage Arms rifle, but they do have them for the new Accu-Trigger ones. Farrell and Warne both seem to have good bases for what I want, though the latter has more rail slots for...

Which is overkill? :-) ArmedBear, can you be more specific as to which is overkill? I'm not certain to what you are refering or to whom.

What about these products? For a scope base: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=195404 For scope rings: http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=452614 Or these rings...

I have two left hand Savage Arms rifles in the Model 110/111 design pre-AccuTrigger with a round front receiver and flattened back receiver with on chambered in .22-250 Remington and the other in .270 Winchester. I'm looking for suggestions for reticles and scopes suited for low light hunting...

For me it is a toss up with apeture rear sights.... I prefer rear apeture military sights over a notched U or V because of the easier centering of the front sight. I find it a toss up among a No. 4 Mk. I SMLE, Model of 1917 Enfield and a M-1 Garand, with the former two being close competitors...

My response... ...would cause Art's grandmother to not only send me to bed without dinner but also dessert as well as make her want to fill my mouth with a bar of homemade lye soap, so I shall not verbalize it. However, I will say that some tongue in cheek comments come to mind from "Unintended...

If I had that information I would have put it in there I had the information given to me, handwritten, from a friend. I was not aware where it came from. However, please note that I did not take credit for it. If it is from John Ross, so be it. Second, the issue of tax funded roadways and...

The biggest mistake we make is failing to take the moral high ground on our issues such as Natural Rights and the Second Amendment and letting our enemies define the terms. They say we’d be better off if no one had guns. We say you can never succeed at that, as criminals will always get...

Ok, so here I am to nitpick again... If there are "reduced capacity", AKA "Hoplophobe Liberal Neutered, Emasculated & Hysterectomied" magazines, then what is the "standard capapcity" magazine for AR, AK, M1A, FAL, MP5, UZI, Thompson, M1 Carbine, BAR/M60/M1918 and other rifles and the various...

Hey now... Some of us just don't like hoplophobes very much and are equal opportunity haters for that population segment. If someone can put their shots where they intend, good safety discipline and can handle a firearm properly I don't care if they are purple with green polka dots and worships...

*Groan* I have CUSTOMERS like that! :p I really do have customers like that come up to me at gun shows and at my gun shop that are EXACTLY like those letters, save the gun editor gets changed to gunsmith/gun shop owner. :eek: :what: :rolleyes: :cuss: :barf: :uhoh: Sometimes truth begets...

Um...correction needed... She has a "single-action rifle"? I think that is supposed to be a "single-shot rifle." Other than that one flaw, it sounds like sound marketing strategy mixed in with a good basic safety opening to teach children proper use of firearms. I will have to do something...

I hate to nitpick here... I hate to nitpick here, but full-automatic firearms, short barreled rifles and shotguns, sound suppressors and any other weapons are NOT illegal weapons. They are, however, items that are UNLAWFUL to possess or manufacture without the proper tax stamp paper from the...

Some observations Just because there are some partially cracked eggs out there, AKA mall ninjas, tacti-cool rubes, Rambo rejects, mili-morons and such, please don't sterotype people just because of outward appearances alone. Don't get me wrong, some people are what they are at face value, that...

A little off topic... Why do some LEOs fear being shot by someone who discloses they have a CCW/CHL/LtCC and tells them exactly where a handgun is within their vehicle or on their person? I can understand being nervous, but if an actual criminal is going to kill a LEO they, generally, aren't...
