I came across some grips that would be nice to put on a handgun I own. I am not familiar with the brand "Unicorn" or who makes them. I would like to look the company up to see if they have grips for other models but can't seem to find anything on them. Does anybody know anything about these...

I recently discovered some brass that stuck to my magnet during the wet tumble process when I was cleaning up some range brass. Upon closer inspection I realized that it was brass plated steel cases. I looked at the headstamp and found out that they were all Sig casings. The plating came...

I noticed that Underwood ammunition switched from offering the Lehigh Defense Extreme Cavitator to the Extreme Defender. I was curious if anybody has done some testing with the new offering? I can't find a single youtube video about it and how it does. I am also curious what the OAL measures...

I am putting together an AR-15 armorers course and am in need of a barrel I can do a cutaway on. The more used the better. Used barrels seem to be throw away items for most people so there aren't many listed online for sale. I am willing to pay shipping for the barrel. If you have one and...

My hunting partner has an original 1897 Winchester shotgun and wants to put a sling on it. We looked at a local sporting goods store but all the leather slings looked cheap or fake. He is looking for a sling that looks more period correct and like real leather. Any suggestions would be much...

I have done firearms coatings for several years at the company I used to work for. I am in the process of setting up a smaller operation on my own as I don't have access to their setup anymore. I am working out all the details of the sandblasting unit at the moment and have hit an obstacle. I...

If you have an AR-15 type rifle or a rifle that accepts AR-15 magazines, how many do you own for that rifle?

What do you guys expect out of a $2000 tactical rifle? I am not speaking about any platform in specific, (although the AR-15 has been the most popular), rather I am wondering what features one would expect when paying for a rifle in the $1995-$2200 price range? For me it must have an...

Excluding 5.56/.223, what caliber would you like to see produced on a more regular basis?

Just an FYI for everyone. There was an explosion at Nosler bullet manufacturing yesterday around 2:00 pm. Nobody was hurt and all workers were accounted for. The ATF is doing an in depth investigation to find out what caused it. http://www.ktvz.com/index.html Investigators Seek Cause...

I just wanted to let everyone know that Gander Mountain is offering free shipping on all orders (including ammo) until the end of the month. I just bought a box of Gold Dot .380 hollowpoints and they arrived last week. No shipping charge, no hazmat fee. Their catalog says the promotion is...

How much would you pay for the highest quality AR-15 money can buy? What features would it need to have and what would your expectations be?

If you're in the market to purchase an AR-15 rifle what factor influences your decision the most?

I was at the gas station the other day with my wife filling up when I noticed a guy at the pump across from me. Out of the corner of my eye I caught a flash of back from his hip and figured it was a cell phone or something. I did a double take to make sure and I spotted a full-sized...

I am graduating gunsmiting school in a couple of months and was wondering if anyone knows of gun related vendors in Oregon. I found a couple of custom rifle makers that look promising. I also know of a .50 BMG conversion kit manufacturer on the west side of Oregon. I previously worked at...

Does anyone know where to find a Thompson Contender barrel for a really good price? I am going to use it in gunsmithing school as a project. Ideally I am looking for a barrel that is rusted or has minor damage on the outside, even on the crown. I was looking for a barrel blank but I haven't...

I just heard on the news (Fox Colorado) that there is a proposed bill coming up that is going to eliminate the ability for people in the Denver area to carry guns in their cars without a CCW permit. I think that's :cuss: The CCW permit program in Colorado puts the holder on a database...

I bought a used squre deal B dillon press from a guy. It came with 9mm already set up and .45 ACP conversion extra. I want to change calibers to reload for .45 ACP but the dillon manual doesn't cover how to change calibers :banghead:. I called them to find out if there is a better instruction...

I just purchased a .22 conversion kit for my 1911 as a new play toy. I understand that dry firing any rimfire is not good. I want to protect my kit by putting a snap cap in the magazine first before loading any live rounds so the firing pin will be protected when it goes "click" after the...

I am driving to Alaska through Canada to be a fishing guide. I have made arrangements to ship a .44 mag handgun up via airliner but I was curious how to get the ammo up there. I figured that the person taking the handgun would be able to get through the TSA inspections much faster without the...
