and therefore activate the slide stop before the magazine is empt? Where does the magazine follower make contact with the slide stop? I have a slide stop that is occassionaly locking back before the mag is empty, and want to file it down some to keep the bullet from contacting and...

I am looking at Remington 1100s. I have an old (~1976) Remington 1100 20 gauge that I have been shooting since I was 12. So after about 25 years of shooting this gun, I am pretty used to it. It has a 26" IC barrel. I am now thinking of getting something new. I love the handling of the...

I am looking to buy a new shotgun, and am thinking about the Remington 1100 G3. This can handle both 2 3/4" shells and 3" shells. I am leaning towards a 20 gauge, as most of my shotgun needs will be handled well with this, such as quail/dove/skeet. However, I would also like to be able to...

I have a Kimber 10mm Eclipse. The factory slide stop was unusable, and caused the slide to lock back after every couple of shots. I replaced this with a Wilson 38 super slide stop. This works better, though I am still having the slide lock back on me about one out of every 15 to 20 rounds...

I would like to see what you guys have.... If you have a photo, please post, along with the brand name and place you bought it!

Coolness factor aside, are blades longer than about 4" very useful for camping, hiking, and wood craft? I just got back from about a week camping and hiking in Yellowstone back country, and my big knife never left my sheath. For small jobs, my pocket knife or small fixed blade (blade about 3")...

I will be travelling from a small airport in Georgia to Salt Lake City on Delta. My trip will involve changing flights in Atlanta. As I understand it, I should put my firearm, unloaded, in a hard sided case, and lock it. I will be taking one box of ammo, and will keep it in its original...

I will be travelling out west soon, to northwest WY/Yellowstone area by way of SLC. Any interesting gun shops in those areas that are worth stopping by? Would be most interested in shops with large inventory of used/antique/old firearms.

Are used wheel weights obtainable from tire shops? If so, do they sell them, or are they just trash to them?

If you have a 38 super 1911, can you just swap out mag and barrel and shoot 9mm?

Are they currently made by CMI?

Is it staked into place? Is there a way to easily remove it and replace with a tritium sight?

I have a lot of brass with the NATO cross and IVI on the headstamp. Where is this stuff from? It weighs more than Lake City brass, and has a smaller case volume.

I am using once-fired LC brass. Is the service rifle data in the Hornady book OK to use with LC Brass, or do I need to reduce the powder? If I reduce, how much do I reduce?

I was out shooting my new Colt XSE lightweight commander for the first time. After the 2nd magazine, the rear sight fell off. It is the Novak type site that is dovetailed and then held in place by a screw. The screw does not thread into the slide, it looks like it must just hold the rear...

Do you plan to buy anything before the election that might end up on a ban list in the future? Such as a semi-auto, "assault weapon", high cap mags, etc.

I am looking at a parkerized Springfield Champion, all steel, it is Mil-Spec but NOT the GI version. It is nice and clean, no scratches or damage. It comes with box, etc. how much is it worth?

I have just mounted an Aimpoint Comp ML3 onto a Flat top AR. I have mounted it in an Aimpoint 30 mm ring. The scope seems to low for me. I have to hold my head down in a funny lower than normal position, and the front site takes up a lot of my field of view. I have an Eotech mounted directly...

What are the pros and cons of the N battery versus AA battery? It would seem the AA battery is more common. Why go with an N battery?

I am looking at the Beretta Urika v. Xtrema shotguns for a general use hunting shotgun for quail, dove, and turkey. I like the feel and fit of the Urika and Xtrema. I don't think I would ever shoot 3.5" shells. What are the differences in these two shotguns? Is the Kick Off feature on...
