    Bianchi 9r holster for a J frame

    Hey all, I have a friend who is asking me about a Bianchi 9r holster for his Model 60 5 shot revolver. I poked around a bit on a bunch of the bigger webstores as well as on bianchi's site but I believe that this may be an item that is no longer made. If thats the case, where could I source...

    Mil dot scope question

    Hey all, I'm looking at getting a scope for my AR15. I want it to have Mil-dots so that I can learn to range estimate. But most of the mildot scopes I'm finding are adjustable power. Would having the power adjustable throw off the mildots because of the zoom? I want this scope for hunting as...

    Why did S.C. Enact one-per-month limits in 1975?

    Hey everyone, I'm currently writing up a paper discussing the in's and out's of the "one gun per month" form of legislation. I know that South Carolina was the first to implement this sort of legislation in 1975, followed by VA in 1993. However, I can't find anything that really says why they...

    Teaching someone not to "flinch"

    Hello THR, I've taken up a new hobby of teaching my friends who are willing the basics of shooting, basically just introducing them to it, and all the do's and don'ts. My last range outing with a friend went very well, she started off shooting consistent groupings center of mass with my...

    Could replacing a hammer solve a reliability issue?

    Hey guys, A little while back I asked a question about why people install skeleton/delta hammers or anything aftermarket what have you...and the general consensus was pretty much because "it looks sooo cool!" But, is it possible to fix a reliability issue? Now, I don't mean something like...

    Black powder at NRA Headquarters range?

    Hey all, I was asked today if black powder firearms are allowed at the indoor range at NRA Headquarters (off route 66). I couldn't find any info about it on their web page, and as fate would have it, they are closed on Tuesdays. Does anybody know if shooting black powder is allowed at...

    buckshot/slugs Heavy rounds in a Franchi 48AL

    Howdy everyone, I've had a Franchi 48AL for some time now, its a great shotgun. But I've always just shot bird loads in it, and I've wondered if I could shoot more. I downloaded a PDF owner's manual of it, and it says that there is a governer ring that can be assembled for either heavy loads...

    Can you get the slide to close by slamming in a mag?

    Hey all, just spent the evening tinkering with one of my magazines, I fixed the existing problem (base pad would slide out of place when being seated) but while testing this, I noticed that I could get the slide to slam shut when I put a new magazine in. Now, first off, the force with which I...

    DPM Systems recoil assembly in my Jericho..

    I just got this in the mail today, I thought I'd do a little review of it to get the info out there about it. I ordered this because I was having frequent FTL issues and figured the recoil spring might be the next thing to change up. Here is how it came out of an envelope, neat packaging...

    Would you carry a less than reliable auto-loader?

    Hypothetical question so please bear with, but, lets say you have an autoloader that has proven to not be 100% reliable. Doesn't jam all the time, but say, one or two jams a range session (100 rounds). You're very proficient with this firearm, accurate, quick, and you know your way around it...

    A bit embarrassed, has this ever happened to you?

    Hi all, I took one of my friends today who is a new shooter. Never shot/held a gun, nothing, even raised in an anti house. Well I didn't feel like taking my .45 because thats just not the way to start somebody off. We ended up renting an M&P full size and going with that. I got back home...

    How tight is your pistol belt?

    Hi all, I'm fairly new to CCWing my pistol (mid-size steel Jericho) and I'm still in the process of getting it comfortable. One thing I noticed is that if I have my belt at a comfortable tightness, my gun seems to bob a bit, not a lot, but just enough to notice, especially going down stairs...

    Witness Elite delta hammer

    Has anybody ever installed one on their witness/Jericho? I'm actually thinking about getting one for my Jericho and I'm fairly certain they are the same as far as fit and function goes. I would like something that is a bit easier to cock than the triangular hammer thats on my Jericho now...

    CZ Gunsmith near northern virginia?

    Hey all, I'm looking for a gunsmith who can/will work on CZs, so far I've found two smiths and all they do is work on 1911s. I have a Jericho ( I feel like I have to lie just to get people into my threads sometimes) which has the same action as a CZ and I'm just trying to find out if one...

    Walther P99

    Hey all, I've recently been doing some reading into the P99 platform. It looks like a solid weapon with good ergo but I've noticed that I don't hear much about them here. Is that because they are very reliable and nobody has problems to post about? Or does nobody own one to post experiences...

    Broken Jericho extractor!

    So, went to the range today to run just a box of 50 through the Jericho. It was running just fine until it stopped extracting rounds. I couldn't figure it out at first until I looked at my extractor and saw the claw had broken off. Here's how it looks now: Anyways, I need a new extractor...

    Jericho mag springs

    So, I think I need to replace my magazine spring in one of my mags. I left it fully loaded for a while to make loading a bit easier ( I know I know, that isn't supposed to kill the spring) and during my last range trip it wasn't locking back on the last round. As far as I know, I need to buy...

    Virginia car carry

    Hey all, I'm picking up my CCW tomorrow and I'm eager to start looking into all the different hoops I'll have to jump through to remain a legal carrier of a firearm. This one pertains mostly to carrying in an automobile. As I understand it, because I have a carry permit, I can carry it in my...

    Is there a way to check on my CCW status?

    Hey all, I suppose this question is for Virginians specifically. I'm trying to see if there is a way to find out if my permit has been approved yet, or if its still being processed or whatever. Is there a place I can go or a number to call? Thanks
