I'm thinking of sending an MKII back for the refinishing service. I've heard good reports about it in the past and I was wondering if anyone here has done it and what the results were? The MKII is blued and I'm interested in a reblue, but even more so I think it would be nice to have a hard...

Does anyone know if these grips use a different screw size? The factory screw doesn't seem to be the right size, it seems a bit too small in diameter.. These are for the old one piece checkered Pachmayr rubber "presentation" grips. I bought the grips from some guy locally, but they didn't come...

I used to be interested in owning a Colt Anaconda in either .44mag or .45LC. Was leaning more towards the .44mag around 2006. They were running around $800-$900 on the auction sites in NIB or "like new" condition. I've been interested in owning one again and now I see they are going for $2,000...

I was thinking of using this ammo in an old non +p rated j-frame I have, anybody like or use this ammo? It looks like a pretty good alternative to 158gr. nyclads, which are impossible to find nowadays. I was thinking of using some Speer 135gr. +p since I have like 10rds of the stuff left, but I...

Just got an email from Guns America detailing some upcoming Shot Show attractions. Here is one of the pictures of a new DAO Colt 1911 style pistol coming out. Looks a bit different than the Double Eagle, hopefully it won't meet the same fate. The trigger vaguely reminds me of the Para "light...

Looks like there will be another nice affordable small 9x19mm on the market soon. I just found out about this gun, though it was announced back on the 3rd of this month. Looks to be a bit larger than the micro Kahr, but I really like the design of the gun, especially the grip and texture. The...

I'm interested in a .38+p j-frame S&W with a 3 or 4 inch barrel. I'm basically looking for a lighter version of a Ruger SP-101 with about a 3"or 4" barrel. I can't think of any models that are either lightweight aluminum frame or scandium that have such specifications. Also.. I won't buy a S&W...

Can somebody explain to me how to remove the magazine catch? I've been pushing it in and turning it both ways with a flat head screw driver, but it doesn't seem to watch to go. I don't want to turn any harder for fear of gouging the metal. Am I doing this right? I can't seem to find any...

They just seem so 'non-tactical' to me. Okay, so with regular night sights like trijicon or Heinie, you can see the sight picture, but the sight is not lit up on the top or in the front. With the fiber optic sights, the entire sight is lit up like a Christmas tree. I have wondered this for a...

Locally I found a NIB GSG-5PK pistol for sale for $400. I kind of like the carbine version better, but I've been thinking that I might prefer the pistol version in an SBR format with a supressor on a tax stamp. I can't find any information about anyone who has done that, I was curious as to what...

I just saw on the news that we will be reverting to a two class permit system starting tomorrow. When first I obtained my permit several years ago there was a shooting and testing requirement. They dropped the shooting requirement about a year or two after that. They have brought the shooting...

I haven't had my 1911's out in awhile and I noticed today a couple of the mags have some rust spots. I looked on Robar's website and they want $18 per mag to have them Robar'd. This is way out of line since the mags I think cost me about $5 apiece. I'm thinking for that I can just buy new...

Both seem to have identical velocity specifications. Of the two, which do you prefer and why? I've noticed the Remington is a little bit cheaper and comes in a little bit smaller box.

The only one I can find is the Buffalo Bore at $52/50rd which is ridiculous. Does anybody know of other rounds at a normal price? There used to be a brand called MFS (Hungarian) that made FMJ 230gr +P, but I wasn't impressed with the velocity, and it wasn't flat nose. I'm looking for 950fps...

Took my Ruger 10/22 to the range this morning to sight in the 3x9 scope. I have not fired this gun in about 3 or 4 years. I started out at 25 yards and the shots were all way left. I cranked the scope as far as it would go to the right and they are now just barely on the paper. I need a bore...

I looked at the posts for the past few days and surprisingly saw nothing about this so I guess I will start a thread so anybody who does not know will see. Colt has scrapped the production of the bull barrel Delta Elite model (thank God) for a retro 80's model of the original Delta Elite 10mm...

I know the barrel is different in the Walther PPK .380's. I was wondering if there is a barrel I could install in a Manurhin PP model that would convert it to .380? I don't know if the extractor/ejector setup would work. Mags would be an issue as well. I have seen them on Gunbroker, but I've...

The only thing I can think of is Rossi Puma or Marlin stainless Trapper. A guy locally has what he claims is an actual stainless steel Winchester 94 in .44 magnum. Barrel looks to be 16". He's asking $2500 for it. I have not seen it or talked to the guy, here's a picture from the ad.

I have an 870 Wingmaster with a 28" barrel. I'm curious, is there a longer magazine extension than the Choate +2? Preferably in high polished blue finish, not black matte easy bake.

I never see any mention of it anymore. I was never that enthused with it to begin with. Strange non-standard cartridge, chambered in a couple guns, rare mystery powder to get the standard pressure .45acp ballistics with a 200gr. cartridge. With the introduction of the Glock .45ACP "short frame"...
