The range I'm a board member of is having some issues regarding people placing their targets: - Too high - resulting in rounds going over our berms - Too low - resulting in rounds hitting the ground and skipping over our berms I'm looking to the community here to see if they have a free to...

I'm a bit of a recoil wussy but decided that I absolutely had to have my new hunting rifle chambered in .300 WM, where currently 30-06 is about my threshold for recoil comfort. That said I'm getting the rifle threaded for a muzzle brake, and am curious what other people have done in this same...

I've always hunted with hand me down rifles, for the most part they've performed as expected and I've had no complaints. Now I'm getting older and bringing others into hunting, who are in need of hand me down rifles, so I'm using that as an excuse to get myself a new rifle while continuing to...

Like many I am back into reloading since retail ammo prices are still ridiculous. Since I wasn't preparing for this move I had an interesting mix of components laying around for my first couple batches, so far I haven't found any load data for the combo and hoping somebody here can share their...

I'm working on rebuilding an old Noble Deerfield 67x that has been sitting broken in the corner of a garage for the last 10 years. I've got all the necessary replacement parts, refinishing of steel and wood is complete... Now I can't figure out how to get the stupid thing together again. I...

How does one apply Tru-Oil to checkering? I'm refinishing a grip for my Dan Wesson 15-2 and going for the exact same thing that I ended up with on this Marlin that I refinished (it is holding up well, and actually feels like it's still getting harder with time)...

Managed to get my hands on a good condition KelTec Sub-2000 in 9mm GLOCK... What I've really been after is one of the SU-16(A/B/C) variants. Is pricing on them similar to where if I found somebody that wanted to trade their SU-16 for my Sub-2k neither of us would be getting screwed on the...

Does anybody have a link, or doc, or video, or anything of that sort that explains the rebuild process for a Benjamin 392? Mine after just 2 years isn't holding pressure any longer, so it's time for a rebuild. Working with Crossman I've managed to source a rebuild kit distributor, but...

I figured I'd wrap up a couple of OLD threads that I started regarding the re-finish of a Marlin 1894c that I got my hands on. I tried to update the original threads but they are too old... When I got the rifle the stock was badly scratched/gouged and the finish looked like a beat up old...

I'm refinishing a stock and using Tru Oil as the finish (for some stupid reason decided against BLO, and am kicking myself for it) and for the life of me can't get this stuff to dry and set to a nice smooth satin finish like I was expecting it should. I have been hand rubbing each coat into...

I picked up an 1894 and the sights on it are pretty beat up. Since I have it torn apart for stock refinishing I figured might as well toss some new sights on it too. Ideally I'd like to get replacement notch/post style sights that fit into the factory dove tails, but I'd also like something...

Another thread got me to thinking about this, so I figured I'd share... I decided that I absolutely had to have an AR, about the same time everybody else in the US did - so that meant piecing the thing together from whatever parts I could find... The build is: - Bushmaster chrome-lined...

I pulled apart a couple of my 9mm rounds after becoming curious how much the bullets were being indented in the crimp die. When I pull the Rainier bullets that I’ve loaded they’re considerably collapsed (in my eyes), but when I pull a harder true jacketed factory loaded 9mm round there is...

I've got an older Ponsness/Warren reloading press that has been sitting idle in my Dad's garage for 10 years now. It's a good press and served us fine when reloading 30-06 and .300 win mag - but doesn't fit the bill for what I need now. I'm going to sell it to fund a 550b - but have no idea...

I'm trying to find a standard looking laptop bag with a hidden compartment for carrying a pistol - ideally a velcro closed pouch that looks like a seam and not a pocket. Every one that I've seen so far has a zippered compartment that would be invisible to sheeple - but pretty obvious to...

Adding a scope setup to my AR but want the capability to quickly add/remove the scope so I'm looking for a quick-detach setup. So far I've been having a hard time finding the super tall rings in a quick-detach configuration for the flat-top AR - can somebody point me in the right direction...

I'm building my first AR and doing it piece by piece for the lower but going to buy a complete upper. Right now I have a .223/5.56 Stag Arms stripped lower, RRA lower parts kit and RRA stock. Far as I know AR parts are pretty universal - but are there any complete uppers that won't fit...

About 10 years back I used to reload for .300 win mag and 30-06 - being we were going for max power/accuracy hunting/target loads it was a significant savings over buying factory ammo. Now I'm looking at rising ammo prices, and thinking "I should start reloading for my 9mm, .40 S&W and...

Didn't see this anywhere else on the site yet - hopefully it's not a dupe... A perfect storm is developing for Second Amendment opponents that could allow President-elect Barack Obama's choice for attorney general – Eric Holder – to "ban guns at will" despite the 2008 affirmation from the...

Was wondering how well people know the laws regarding performing a private transfer in the parking lot of a licensed firearm dealer? The below happened yesterday in Washington State, and I thought it may be a good heads up for others if it's something that could lead to trouble for you or the...
