    Glock Value Question: gen1 vs gen2 vs gen3 vs gen4

    There are a couple of local adds for older Glocks, namely a G22 gen 2 LE trade-in with 2 mags for $400, and a G17 with no finger grooves (doesnt say if it's gen 1 or 2) with 2 mags for $400. My knowledge of the specifics is fairly limited as far as Glocks go, I'm basically looking for a deal...

    How To: Register a reciever as a Short Barreled Rifle

    Howdy folks, I'm looking for some info and the paper work to register an AR lower as a SBR in Idaho. I have searched the ATF website and the forums in vain; if anyone knows where I can find a checklist and the paperwork that would be swell. Thanks

    What bullet for a M1A?

    I recently purchased a SA M1A Socom16 and am curious what bullets work well. I plan on shooting targets, rabbits and possibly ground squirrels with this rifle, so a good hunting bullet along with a FMJ suggestion would be great. FWIW, I started off by loading 168 SMK's in front of 45gr of...

    High Standard 1911's, good buy or no?

    Here is the link to what I'm looking at. My experience with 1911's is limited to the 1991A1 commander I carry and a Kimber a friend has. I'd like to think I have a pretty good understanding of what makes a good 1911, but I can't think of a time I've heard someone suggest a High Standard. Does...

    For sale locally for $600 including 500 rounds of wolf, here's the link. Any thoughts?

    So I bought a Mosin...

    for $125 which included 300 rounds so it seemed like the price was where it should be. Seemed to shoot ok, besides the fact that it kicks the crap out of me. I get to cleaning the bore and find a most wonderful surprise: has to be the worst condition I have ever seen in a rifle. The grooves were...

    Home built AR-15 = unreliable?

    I have read a few different posts on why you should buy a factory gun because it's more reliable and comes with a warranty. Someone had posted that in a carbine class, 100% of the rifles that broke were home builds. My question is this: what is it about a home built AR that makes it less...

    Leupold Mark 4; Moa clicks and Mildot reticle

    So, my Mark 4 4.5-14 LR/T has M1 knobs (1/4 moa clicks) and a mil dot reticle, which looking back maybe wasn't the best Idea as they are two separate forms of measurement. Also, the reticule is not on the first focal plane, so I got the idea that I can set the magnification to a certain number...

    300 winmag match loads

    I'm looking for a 800+ yard load for my 700P with a 1-10 twist. I've been using RL22 and have had decent luck with 165gr nosler ballistic tips on the 18" gong, but haven't had the patience (or the weather) to spend time shooting paper. Basically, I'm looking for some suggestions on bullet...

    Browning bolt action for a P-Dog gun

    The only reason I'd even think of getting a browning is the 60 degree bolt unlock. Not that Browning is bad or anything, just that I don't know anything about their rifles and I'm more of a Rem fan. I think the 60 deg. bolt would be handy for shooting while sitting or prone and for faster...

    Savage extractor = garbage.

    Ok, now that I got all the savage guys to look :evil::neener:, I'm having a problem with the extractor on my Model 12 LRPV 22-250. I can get it to actually extract about 5% of the time. I wasn't sure if this was supposed to happen, then a friend of mine was having trouble with his mod 110 in...

    Dillon 550 Caliber Conversion Question:

    I realize that 243 and 308 have the same shell plate and locater buttons because the case head is the exact same. What I'm curious about is if 308 shares the locater buttons and or shell plate with another caliber, just as 45acp shares the same plate and locaters with 22-250. Anyone know?

    Options for building a 300 whisper/fireball

    At this point, I am really looking for a barrel chambered in 300 whisper/fireball so I can put an upper together myself. DPMS hasn't sold 300 uppers for a year and model 1 sales either doesn't have them in stock and I'm looking for something a little higher-end. Del-ton's barrels are 1-10 which...

    Gemtech HVT a good choice for multiple rifles?

    I have been thinking about getting a suppressor that will work on my 300 win mag, possibly a 300 whisper if I get one, a 308 bolt gun when I get one. I'm really leaning towards GemTech as they are local and I've heard they are the best. Has anyone used an HVT on a 308 or larger bolt/semi...

    AR15: Carbine-length stock (buffer tube) on a rifle-length gas system

    Am I going to have problems with the buffer weight if I put a Magpul UBR on a 20" rifle?

    Gun Rights: How do I win this argument...

    I had a conversation with my mom's husband (step father sounds weird) about guns and such yesterday, when we came on the topic of semi-automatic removable magazine pistol gripped rifles that are generally black in color. He seemed to think that AR-15's (which he actually seemed to think were...

    SxS Stainless coach style suggestions

    A friend of mine had a stainless SxS in 12ga that caught my eye. It's been a while and I can't remember if it had external hammers or not, but I've been thinking of picking up a shotgun like this for a while. This will be used mostly as a truck gun, not to be confused with a beater, and will...

    USPSA: Reloading 45acp to meet major caliber

    I'm curious as to what everyone is shooting for single stack in USPSA. I like 230gr bullets for some reason and switched from bullseye to red dot when sportsman's ran out and I had to get loaded for the next day. When I looked through my little on caliber book I didn't find very many loads for...
