    1st Reloading setup; good choice?

    Howdy. I've been reading the reloading forum for some time, and searching through for specific information/reviews/feedback on a reloading setup for a beginner. What I've seen has been mixed information (different opinions), but I've found 3 ways one could start: [list=1]Lee Classic Loader...

    My SU-16 Magazines jam feeding 1st round

    I recently picked up a Kel Tec SU-16, and took it out to the range the other night to start breaking it in following Flyer's break-in recommendations...well, sorta. Anyway, with the gun, you get 2 10 round plastic mags, plus I had picked up a 20 round GI mag, and a 30 round aluminum in some...

    Trading in 3 guns for 1; which one?

    Tonight I took 2 of my guns to my favorite gunshop, in the hopes of trading them in for something more useful to me. I traded a Marlin 336C 30-30 lever rifle, and a Remington 597 .22LR. The 597 was the first gun I bought, about 2 1/2 months ago, and was shot a lot when I first got it...

    Which to buy? SKS vs Hi-Point 995, or handgun?

    I want to buy another gun. However, I'm not sure which gun to buy...I want one that's cheap to shoot, fairly inexpensive, and which I'll have fun with. Currently, I have a 30-30, .50 cal ML, .22 rifle's and pistol, and a .380 bersa. The .22's are fun, and cheap. The .50 cal is fun, but slow...

    CCW in public restroom?

    I noticed something in another thread that had never occured to me (no CCW yet)...when using any sort of holster that attaches to your pants/belt, do you do anything special when using a stall in a public restroom? Afterall, when you drop your drawers to the floor, anyone at a distance can...

    Appropriate qualifications for CCW

    I recently applied for a CCW permit here in good ole Linn County, IA. As the reason for my permit, I put down (almost verbatim): "To exercise the right to bear arms as guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment, as well as to do as instructed in the Boy Scouts of America; Be prepared." Well, as...

    What's your Holy Grail?

    Similar to the "What's your Excalibur" thread...but different angle. I want to know what your "Holy Grail" handgun is. By this, I mean the handgun that you WILL have someday. (no fantasy guns like Star Trek phasers or Star Wars blasters) This isn't just *A* handgun that you want, but it's...

    Is the Jennings Nine really that bad?

    I know that this is a loaded topic, and that cheaps guns have a bad rap, but are Bryco Arms Jennings Nine's really that bad? First off...I thought they were different guns until just now. On gunbroker, I saw that it's Bryco Arms (company), Jennings Nine (model). That's a big issue of...

    Stiff safety on Bersa .380?

    I picked up my 3rd gun, 2nd pistol, and 1st centerfire gun tonight. Bersa Thunder .380 for 210 OTD. It's a neat little gun, trigger isn't bad (compared to PPK/S DA), and was cheap. Only two complaints so far...until i fire it that is. :D 1) The finish seems to be not quite perfect..there...

    Ruger 22/45 reassembly problems

    I picked up a ruger 22/45 tonight...standard blue barrel for 209 at a gun show. It was too late to go shooting, so i took it home, and decided to practice field stripping it. That was going decent, i was starting to get the hang of it. Well, I ran into a problem...the last time I tried to put...

    Thinking of a used AB-10

    After perusing through the local pawn shops, I saw an "evil" looking gun. It's an Intertec AB-10 (blued), with a purty 10 round mag, and a rather beat up hi-cap mag (no markings, not sure of capacity), and the original case. The gun itself amazingly looks to be in very good...

    Sterling .22LR Mouse gun

    I was browsing the local pawn shops, and found an interesting lil gun for $65. All i could gather was that it was a .22LR semi-auto, had a fixed barrel, and was (maybe) a Sterling brand...at least that's what it said on the barrel: "Sterling .22 Long Rifle". What do you guys think? Does...

    suggest <$70 scope for 597 for plinking?

    On thursday I picked up a Remington 597, have shot over 250 rounds, and so far have been rather happy with it. However, I'd like to be able to get a scope for it. This is just going to be for plinking cans, bottles, targets, etc. I have a scope...a 4x15 I paid 7 bucks for at walmart. It's...
