    Mossberg 500 bolt on recoil pad recommendations

    My 12 ga Mossberg 500 with factory synthetic stock needs a new recoil pad. It's a ~30 year old plain Jane 12 ga that came with a 28" blued choke tube barrel, not some exotic special model. Which is preferred, a Kick Eez, a Limbsaver or something else? Factors are recoil comfort and above all...

    If you need proof of residence to buy guns or ammo....

    Use your car registration. It's issued by your state government and has your address on it. Best of all, you should have it with you in your car.

    End of an era

    Western Sport Shop in San Rafael, CA is closing after 65 years. Western was an old fashioned hunting and fishing store that specialized in service. They really would take a beginner out into the parking lot and teach them how to flycast. Bashing gun store clerks is practically a sport on gun...

    Long term storage materials

    I need to store some guns for several years and am leaning toward VCI paper and plastic bags (along with a good coat of oil). Any recommendation where I can buy VCI paper in the San Francisco area? I can find it online, but shipping is expensive. I can't find long plastic bags anywhere. All...

    DC: Semiauto pistol = Machine gun

    There's a new wrinkle in the DC refusal to allow semiautomatic handguns post-Heller. It seems that DC has perverted the language to define ANY semiauto pistol that COULD possibly hold more than 12 rounds to be a "machine gun". Since almost all semiautos could hold more than 12 rounds if you had...

    Mystery muzzleloader!

    Can anyone shed any light on this unusual percussion muzzleloader? It has a HEAVY octagon barrel. The only marking on the gun is "W. Billinghurst" on the scope.

    Does a longer barrel mean tighter patterns?

    A simple question. I'm not concerned with velocity, sight radius or swing issues. If every thing else is equal will a 26" barrel give a tighter pattern than an otherwise identical 20" barrel? If so, why?
