This is an odd request, but I trust someone out there can spare a few moments for me. I happen to be an advertising photographer, (and a bullseye shooter). I have a project coming up that will be a hunting scene. I don’t think I should rely on my Los Angeles stylist to dress this project...

I put an Infinity trigger group (all new related parts) in my Springfield Trophy Match 1911, and it worked great for about a 1000 rounds. The last two outings, I have had double fires, which is pretty damn entertaining, and great way to get the ol' ticker racing. It hasn't fired more that 2 in...

Sure your done. Until you find another great deal, or the latest greates gotta have it popper is introduced. Face it, you have a problem, you need gun therapy. You need more guns.

A good friend of mine (my range buddy) is an avid bullseye shooter. We go to the range twice a week for a couple hours at a time, here in Burbank California. He's Icelandic, but this is his country of choice (Go USA!!), and he's legal. Recently he went to Iceland to visit his family. Iceland has...

Red Coats I dunno... the last time thum thar Red Coats had guns in their hands it didn't go so well all around.

It's a long story, so rather than bore you all with my tales of woe, I'll cut to the chase: I need a recomendation for a bedside handgun safe. Any opinions would be appreciated. There are no kids in the house, just looking for some accessible immediate home security to store my favorite self...

Medal Needed Maybe THR could issue a medal. Not a Purple Heart, that would be offensive for those who have given so much of themselves to this country. Maybe a Red or a Pink Heart: "Wounded while enjoying my favorite sport" Ofcourse, then John Kerry would want one for bumping his head...

Clean... guns? I've never cleaned a gun, I let my wife do it! She's gonna' have to paint the house soon too. Honey, did you change the oil in mah pick-up today?

I hate it when people want to enjoy life and try to do the things that they enjoy, the way they want to. Maybe what's best is if we all conform. In fact, why should there be more than one gun manufactured? Shouldn’t we all shoot the same gun and same caliber too? And what’s with that weird music...

Freedom!!! This is the most offensive topic I have ever read on THR. Be free, enjoy life, get over it.

Why does a gun lift (raise) when fired? I certainly understand the general laws of physics, but I'm just not smart enough to understand the lift. When a bullet is fired through a spherical chamber from a spherical casing, the compressed gas is formed within a round passage, so why do guns lift...

Wow! I certainly feel a lot more confident about loading and shooting lead bullets. I appreciate the facts vs. the myths, facts are always more comforting. The size difference seems to not be a factor either. Thanks for the all the info guys.

I've been loading for a short time now and so far I have restricted myself to using copper coated bullets. I am considering using Hornady lead bullets (.45 LSWC). Are there health concerns or is it ok to load and shoot lead bullets indoors? Also, I've noticed that lead bullets tend to be .452...

Two Stories: I was 14 years old (long time ago). I have a dirt bike and a scabbard to hold my .22 Remington Apache Rifle for when Dad and I go riding and shooting. I decide to go out on my own, I put the rifle in the scabbard which is attached to the front fork of my motorcycle, and of course...

Don't hessitate, JUMP! It's a fine gun, and unless you plan on making a mega hobby out of shooting your 1911, it will suit you well for years to come. Like anything though, the more involved you become the more features you will start to look for in any given format. My first 1911 was used...

It's NOT a glock. The most compelling reasons to own an XD: It's not a Glock. You won't be compelled to wear the silly Glock t-shirts and other Glock Club paraphernalia that Glock owners like to traipse about in. You are not required to drink Austrian Kool-Aid to own an XD. You’re...

On a 1911 (fullsize), how do you change the caliber from .45ACP to .40 S&W? Is it a big production? Can a home gunsmith do a decent job, or does it require Yoda Jedi-Master skill levels?

Slow Hand My first 1911 was a Springfield Trophy Match. It's an awesome gun, I love it. I shot that for a little more than a year then I was ready to upgrade. I ordered an SVI Infinity, Target Master 6" 1911 in .45 ACP. This is a sweet machine. I'm still getting use to the balance of a 6" bull...

I'm looking to replace the flat panels on my 1911 with match grips. Finding these on the web seems a rare treasure. I would appreciate any sources you all may have for locating either European style or other types of match or ergonomic grips for a 1911. Thanks.

Dream, then jump! Why not? Just go for it. I could write for pages about people who have had a dream or an idea, and went for it. Many fail, but not everyone. It’s a can-do attitude that makes this country the “Greatest on God’s Green Earth –Michael Medved”. I admire the boot-strapper and the...
