    Moving Ammunition

    Looks like I will be making a log distance move real soon now...just got a quote a mover. He refuses to move my ammo. His claim is that the interiors of the trucks get so hot that the ammo can explode. I've seen rifles shot so fast that the barrel temp made hanguards smoke, and the ammo...

    1911 Magazine

    Been reading LOTS on how important the mag is for proper feeding in 1911s. Mine dont always feed well, I seriously suspect my mags. Which make (or makes) of mag are the "gold standard" that will make my 1911s feed smooth like butter? Or is there no "for all occasions, for all 1911s" perfect...

    Moving guns

    It looks like I will be moving soon, almost certainly several hundred miles (if not thousands); still have not lined up a new job yet. Moving my collection is a concern. Leaving them in the safe would get them banged up. Not sure I'd trust them in the hands of movers anyways... So, when...

    Recoil Spring on AMT Hardballer Longslide

    I picked up a Hardballer Longslide, and I strongly suspect it needs a new recoil spring -- not only does the slide rack too easy, but the slide batters the frame violently when firing. I of course have no documentation on this pistol, and cannot find any old factory parts anywhere. I did...

    May be moving to Reno, NV

    Looks like my time is up at my current job, so I (and family) are looking for a new place to go... Reno (almost random pick) looks good on paper, appears gun-friendly, and suitable for families. Anyone from around there that can drop me some hints (places to live, any odd gun laws, what...

    Uzi model A sight adjustments

    I just figured out that the reason that I cannot seem to adjust the sights on my new-to-me uzi is that the instruction guide that came with it shows model B instructions, I have model A sights. Is it possible to adjust the sights without the special tool, or am i just wasting my time trying...

    Moving to NC, any laws that need to know?

    A buddy of mine is moving to NC; he has a decent collection ( AR15, SKS, Sar2, and a couple pistols). I've found that you need a pistol permit to buy a pistol in NC, but what about moving there? The obvious sources seem to indicate he will have no issues, are there any surprises he should...

    Boresighters and 'on the paper'

    When everyone talks about boresighters, they say they get you 'on the paper', and then you can fine tune. I had an el-cheapo boresighter, and it got me on the paper, assuming the paper was 10' x 10'. I want something more accurate...but how accurate are they? I know 1moa is unreasonable...

    Super Blackhawk and scope mount

    I've recently been trying to mount a scope on a Super Blackhawk. I purchased the weaver base and rings, mounted the scope, and shot it. It was OFF; 10" high and right at 15'. After (far too) long of checking things out, I think the gun, not the mount, rings or scope, is off. If I set...
