    Does Anyone Have a Beretta 21A that Works?

    Even if it did, the firing pin / primer wouldn't line up.... One is rimfire, the other centerfire.

    Am I looking for too much out of a rifle?

    Yes, I think you're asking too much of one rifle. Since you're a novice to rifle shooting, and have other options for deer hunting, I'd recommend a good .223 with a great scope to start with. The savages seem to have a great reputation, can be inexpensive, and allow you to spend a significant...

    Advice on a Rossi Puma 92 .45LC

    Shoot it and see! If you like it, keep it. If you don't, sell it (at a profit) and move on. You do know, though, if you keep it you'll have to get a .45 revolver to go with it, right? That's a great price. I just picked up a SS saddle ring carbine myself to replace a winchester legacy I...

    Collectable Value of AcuSport Bisley?

    Thanks for the feedback, folks. Looks like this one will have minimal collectible value, so it'll be a shooter....

    .45 Colt or .45 ACP?

    If I had to depend on store-bought or scrounged ammo, I'd go with .45 ACP. If I had access to reloading equipment, I'd go with .45 Colt for the greater flexibility of light to heavy loads.

    Collectable Value of AcuSport Bisley?

    I picked up a NIB 5.5" Stainless AcuSport Ruger Bisley in .45 Colt / .45 ACP. I've wanted a short-barreled stainless Bisley for years, but didn't want to spend the coin for the custom work. This AcuSport run hits the street, and despite having no money, I get one. Now I have a dilemma...

    Who has their guns insured?

    That doesn't appear to be true. Per their exclusion: "Covered property does not include: (2) Guns that are primarily used, fired, or discharged for sports, hobby, self protection or similar purposes." The word "primarily" leaves some wiggle room. Most of my guns are shot only...

    Who has their guns insured?

    I use collectible insurance - something like $6 per $1k of stated value per year. Yes, you *do* have to provide a list of S/N's, but I don't sweat that.

    S&W 625-8JM Grips: Hogue or Pachmayr?

    I've got the hogue monogrip on my 625, and it's a pretty good grip. Having said that, I'm really a wood kinda guy. If you're interesting in parting with your JM grip, let me know.

    M1 Carbine Questions

    Hi All - I just traded into a M1 Carbine, and I know little about them. It's an Inland, from the CMP, and 'rack' grade. I've wanted one as a period piece and plinker. I've got a couple questions: What's a good source for extra mags? I've got one (10-shot?) mag that came with it, but I'd...

    Shipping long guns?

    On a similar note, what's the best way to box one? Just get a cheap hard case and send it that way? Is that a problem because it's obvious it's a gun? If so, where can I get a good cardboard "non-gun" box?

    Bullet Suggestion for .308 Ruger Frontier?

    Hi All - I just picked up a Ruger Frontier in .308, and I'd like some advice on bullet selection. This will be a hunter - mostly deer-sized. The barrel twist is supposed to be 1:10. Anyone have one, or have any idea of how it's throated? Should I start with lighter or heavier...

    Pistol Scopes for Scout Rifle?

    Hi All - I just picked up a Ruger Frontier in .308, and I'd like some advice on a scope. I intend to use the forward 'scout' mounts. The Leupold Scout scope seems like a good choice, but is a 2.5x fixed power. Ideally I'd like a variable, in the range of 1-4x or 2-6x. Pistol scopes seem...

    Why hasn't a manufacturer combined the best of SA and DA revolvers?

    Or, take the ruger redhawk / super redhawk. More than enough strength for just about anything.
