    12 or 20 in a single shot?

    I'm thinking about getting a single shot shotgun to casually shoot clays with friends and family. All I'll be shooting is low power cheap target rounds. So should I still get a 20 for less recoil in these light guns? Or will a 12 not be bad with light target rounds?

    Difficult to eject brass

    Shooting a 19-5 that I got in a trade this morning. I shot four different types of ammo. 3 types of .357, and one .38. The .38s and one of the kinds of .357 were pretty difficult to eject. Not that I had to hammer on it or anything, but it was a lot harder to eject then it should have been...

    Boyds' American Plainsman Buttstocks and Forends

    I am looking at some replacement stocks for Mossberg 500s and these look pretty nice. I shoot left handed though. Are these stocks shaped for right handed shooters or will they work both ways? Anybody have any experience with the stocks or have them on one of your guns? Any pics?

    Remington 870 safety

    I was wondering if the safety on an 870 can be reversed to make it more friendly to a left handed shooter?

    Mossberg 500 "Silver Trigger"

    I was at Big 5 today and noticed they had 2 synthetic stock Mossberg 500's that were sold with 2 barrels. 18 and 26 inch barrels I think. One was priced the regular $400, but the other was on sale for $300. I asked the sales guy why one was on sale but the other wasn't, and he said the...

    Hornady Critical Defense .380 FTX

    I was testing out my new LCP today and was shooting some of the hornady critical defense .380 ftx ammo that I picked for it. Anyways, I set up a few different things to shoot, one of them being an empty beer bottle. When I shot it, the bottle exploded! This is as opposed to shattering and...

    Ruger LCP IWB holsters

    To those who carry the LCP IWB, what holsters do you like? I tried a Galco Second Amendment holster and it worked well. Just wondering what other options there are. Synthetic too? I also am looking at the MiniTuck because my brother uses a Crossbreed for his M&P and it's pretty...

    Shotgun Shopping With My Mom

    How many guys can say that? :) We planned on going to this weekend's local gun show. Then, earlier in the week, she was the first caller and won free tickets to the show on a local radio station. She had never won anything on the radio before so she was pretty excited. So we took our...

    Buck Mark Plus Rosewood

    Took out my new Buck Mark today. Loved those Rosewood grips at the store. I liked the stainless model too but this one was my favorite. Really fun gun to shoot. More accurate then me with any of the 5 different types of ammo I put through it. I set up some pieces of recycling to shoot...

    Clays as .22 targets?

    I was wondering how well orange clays would work as a plinking target for a .22? Anyone tried them? Would they explode like with shot, or just crack and fall over?

    Why do "Home Defense" guns feel so junky?

    I know "junky" is subjective, but I feel like the nice pumps are for hunters. I would like a Mossberg 500, but I just can't get past fit and finish. Same for the 870 Express. I picked up a Browning BPS, and THAT gun I liked. But a 28 inch barrel. I can't find an 18" for that gun...

    Utah child rescue with firearm

    I thought this: http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gOAG1rmEOZoQdc99UyWBJ1qbvmKw?docId=9e12f8a242234b4da31660e61534940d was a nice story. Certainly in contrast to the sad one at Mt. Rainier. But it was interesting that the guy used his pistol to shoot out the window of...

    Evaluating a used shotgun

    Hi guys. I was thinking about trying to pickup a used Wingmaster or SXS shotgun at the next local gunshow. I'd like one for HD, casually shooting clays with my brother, and destroying the occasional pumpkin. This will be my first shotgun, though I have shot them before. So if I'm at the...

    Blade width

    What are your guys' thoughts on knife blade width and how a knife handles/cuts? Does it make a difference? What width blade do you like if you think it does make a difference? I'm referring to width as from the distance from the cutting edge of the blade to the other side. NOT the...

    ASP Baton Training

    I'm interested in training to use my new ASP baton. I emailed them and they don't have any classes in the Tacoma WA area and also made it sound like they only offer them to law enforcement. Are there other places to find training for these batons besides through ASP?

    New spyderco Delica.... disappointed

    I got a Delica delivered today and I'm a little disappointed with it. I read so many positives about these knives and other spyderco knives I was sure I would like it. But compared to my Opinel... I love my Opinel knife. But I wanted something that would open a bit easier and with...

    Online dealer for ASP batons

    I was thinking about buying an ASP baton. What online stores that carry them have you ordered from and like? I'm looking for a reputable dealer who ships quickly rather then just the cheapest price.
