    Best 9mm and training .22 combo?

    My teen girls are ready to start some pistol training. I'd like to start them on .22 to get them used to handling a pistol before moving up to and EDC 9mm. Ideally I would like to have the transition be ergonomically identical. I'm looking at the Shield and .22 Compact, but they don't look...

    Choosing a new caliber: .243, ,270, or .308?

    I'm going to pick up a new T/C Icon rifle for whitetail deer hunting in Wisconsin. I want to be able to confidently take a single kill shot out to 300 yards (I understand the marksmanship is the key there). I've used several different calibers to hunt deer, but I've never used .243, .270, or...

    Best *cheap* detachable AR-15 carry handle

    It seems there is a smattering of carry handles in the $20-30 range and then you have the $80-$150 handles. Are all the cheap ones junk, or is there a good VALUE among them?

    Does the A2 front sight interfere with a standard scope on a flat top upper?

    I see a lot of flat top uppers with standard A2 front sights, but I'm wondering if a standard scope mounted on medium rings would "see over" the front sight. I'm sure someone here has experience with this.

    Parkerized scope rings

    I have a rifle with an excellent dark grey parkerized finished and integral picatinny scope base. Does anyone know of manufacturers that make 1" parkerized scope rings for picatinny? I'd like to try to keep things matching. And for that matter, is it possible to parkerize a scope? If not...

    Need scope recommendation in 4x for Enfield .303

    My dad asked me to scope his .303 hunting gun. Now that he is getting older his eyes aren't that sharp anymore. He is old school and doesn't do well with technology (illuminated reticles, zoom, AO, SF). He told me he would prefer a fixed 4x scope -- and that should do fine for white-tail...

    Is Saiga going away?

    Last year there was a news article that Izhmash had filed for bankruptcy. (http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/kalashnikov-faces-bankruptcy/article1296238/) I just found this comment on the EAA website, and I was wondering if it is a harbinger of the coming end of the Saiga line...

    Need a bolt rifle recommendation for 7.62x39

    I know... why? Well, I already reload this rifle caliber and don't want to add another. I'd like something with a 20+ inch barrel and good accuracy. It isn't a big deal, but I'd like to find something left-handed. So far, here are the choices I've found in bolt 7.62x39: Browning A-bolt...

    .303 case separated - headspace?

    My dad has hunted with the same .303 British sporter for 40 years. When doing some pre-season shooting this year a case seperated cleanly at the bottom. I assume there is too much headspace from wear. Is this a simple or complex repair?

    What are the chances of another full-auto amnesty?

    There are a lot of vets getting older, and I have a suspicion that they have tucked away "souvenir" guns they picked up during their service that were never registered under the previous amnesty. Just a few weeks ago I read the story of a young man who inherited a trunk from his uncle only to...

    Best way to scope and Enfield .303?

    My dad has been hunting with the same .303 sporter for the last 20 years or so. About 10 years ago I had it completely refinished for him as a Christmas gift. Last hunting season he asked me if there was any way to put a scope on it. I don't think his eyes are as good as they used to be...
