Hopefully the mods will let me post this here...? Just wanted to let the comp. shooters know I have a never used Ice Magwell for STI/SV competition for sale. You guys would appreciate it more, and since there is not much comp. gear offered for sale too often I thought I'd let you know. I...

Quick, simple question.... I need to know soon if it would be "legal" in USPSA (Production) for me to use a Glock 23 model pistol with a 9mm conversion barrel installed? I like the idea of having a G23 (which is .40) that would be able to switch over to 9mm for competition (because it's more...

Armed police raid home after mistaking Lara Croft dummy for gunman http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-455037/Armed-police-raid-home-mistaking-Lara-Croft-dummy-gunman.html This is VERY ridiculous and uncalled for, but at the same time it's sort of humorous. I just don't get why they felt...

I am trying to install a free floating handguard on my Colt carbine. I've already taken off the gas block sight, and all that. Now I am down to taking off the Delta Ring which is proving to be a pain. It WILL NOT budge! Since I am cheap and also not quite prepared in the tool department just...

Let me start off by saying I don't know the first thing about 3 gun. I don't really shoot shotguns and only occasionally shoot my rifles. I don't know if I'll be shooting 3 gun anytime soon, but I'd like to get a shotgun that would work if I decide to shoot competitively with it. And my...

I was just wondering if anyone has come across a really good source for ideally FMJ 45acp 230g and 9mm 115g? I know it's all pretty high, but I've just gotten started and wanted to make sure I got the best prices before I go ordering stuff. Eventually, I'll probably cast, but I don't have the...

Hopefully I can make this make sense!:p I’m not one to get all caught up in “divisions” or get too serious about something that is supposed to be fun, but I can’t help but think about what I should be doing next to further my opportunities and successes in the future. You can call it strategy...

Hi guys, I am posting this event for someone else.... It sounds like it's for a great cause. Anyway, Here are the event details: Friends of the NRA Benefit & Fundraiser Banquet. Where? The National guard Armory in Forest City. When? May 8th, 2008 - 6:00 pm Banquet tickets are only...

So, I know this is far fetched, but I figure it never hurts to ask… In a few weeks I will be competing in my first big USPSA match. I have shot a few small things locally, but I’ve been encouraged to shoot this thing. I have managed to scrape together a gun, mags, holster, belt, etc. The only...

Hopefully this is in the right place!? I figured more people would see it if I posted here… Hello everyone - Because I have been “lurking” here for a while and seen everyone’s kindness and helpfulness, I knew just where to post this where I knew I might get some great people joining...

Hey folks - Maybe you all can help me out a little. I am getting into competition shooting (USPSA). As expensive as it is becoming to shoot, obviously it’s going to cost me a lot, but practicing is where I’ll be spending the most in ammo. Basically I am trying to find a tricky way around...

This may be totally dumb question, but it's worth a shot... I just bought some 1911 magazines today because I found a good deal on some basic Colt single stack mags if I bought several. I figured I'd start stocking up now so when I get my 1911, I won't have to spend my time and money buying...

I need to know some opinions on Beretta 92FS models. I have the opportunity to buy one practically brand new for $475. No known issues, with box, and two mags. How's that price? Is this something I should pursue? I'll be using for fun shooting and some USPSA stuff. Thanks for your time!

Surely someone here knows what catalogs are out there for me to order that specialize in competition type gear, targets, parts and equipment, etc. I know there are plenty of online, but sometimes, I just want to hold the book in my hand. I try to avoid online stores as much as possible... Any...

My first post here in the Gunsmithing area... Don't know if I am posting in the right place, but I was hoping that someone could give me a good source for 1911 add on parts. Particularly a mail order catalog. Currently, I am trying to get info on adding/modifying sights on a 1911...

I know, I know, Kimber is better, but it's also more expensive. I originally thought I would go with Springfield, but I am having a hard time going with something that isn't US made. Springfield tends to "trick" people on that fact too, which I don't really like. So, now I am in "comparing...

I was shooting the other weekend and shot a 1911 45ACP at a little USPSA type match. I think they said it was low powered ammo (reloaded). I just liked the feel of it. I don't have a 45, and never have bought the ammo, so I don't know much about it. I was just wondering what to look for if I...

If you had $500 - $800 to spend on a future USPSA 45ACP competition gun, could ONLY buy a newer model Kimber, Springfield, or CZ, FOUND one in GREAT shape for the price range, which model would you go with and WHY? I know it’s not extremely likely, but (hopefully) a possibility. Be nice!

I was just hoping you all could give some input on this pistol. It is a 1911-A1 Springfield .45ACP, for around $600. I am not very knowledgeable with them either, but this is a nice looking gun. I am considering buying it, but haven’t decided on it yet. Supposedly it has a Nolan barrel, Les...

Post pics of your competition pistols! I am considering eventually competing USPSA. I would like to see everyone's "toys". I don't have one yet, so I can't post. Hopefully soon...
