Does anyone know anything about gunsmithing on the CZ75 trigger mechanisms? I have a few questions: Is it possible to take a decocker CZ75 (like a PCR or P-01, say) and replace the decocker with a thumb safety? I'd really like to have one of the alloy framed compacts, but I don't want to give...

I currently have a full sized Dan Wesson 1911 that I love. Great gun to shoot, and a pretty good gun to carry. I haven't felt the need to buy any new handguns, 'cause this gun was everything I could ever want or need. Well, I now have a new job that requires different clothing, and much...

Help me make sense of AR-15 barrel profiles. First question: Lightweight, government, M4, A1, A2, HBAR, standard, pencil... All sorts of terms are used to describe the different barrel profiles available on various AR-15s, but I can't seem to find any sort of accurate, detailed description of...

What's the word on Rock River's new .308 rifles? Have they been released yet? Any opinions yet on their quality and reliability?

I'm thinking of buying one of Bushmaster's "Superlight" uppers. Where's the best (cheapest) place to mail order one from? I could buy it straight from Bushmaster, of course, but don't you end up paying slightly more when you buy at MSRP from the manufacturer?

I need to buy some more surplus 308. Has anyone bought some recently? What's available these days, and where are the best places to get it from?

I have a 8 shot Mossberg 500 that's been sitting in the back of the safe unused. I want to learn to use if effectively. Can someone direct me to some good info on how to train with it? The usual answer is to practice, practice, practice. But I want to make sure I'm practicing properly...

I want to be able to put a sling on my 8 shot Mossberg 500. The gun only came with a single sling stud on the buttstock, there's no attatchment point on the front end. How do you go about attaching a sling to this kind of gun? Is there a way to add a second sling attachment at the front...

I'm thinking of getting myself a blackpowder rifle for Christmas. My experience with blackpowder shooting is limited to romantic stories in old movies and books. In other words, I don't have a clue. :p 1: I've sort of narrowed my search down to the Lyman Great Plains Rifle. Anything wrong...

I recently moved. If you have an Indiana CCW permit, you've probably seen the line that says you must notify the state police within 60 days of any change in address. Of course, it doesn't say HOW to notify the state police, only that you;re required by law to do so. So, have any of you...

Anyone know of a good place to buy 'em from?

I just bought a mauser for use as a cheap utility gun. It's kinda rare, a Spanish FR-8, but it isn't very collectible due to mismatched parts and such. It's gonna see some serious use, which will probably reduce its overall condition and collectibility further. The straight bolt handle has...

I need to find a gunsmith to bend down a mauser bolt handle. Problem is, I don't think there are any in my neighborhood. The local phonebook doesn't list anybody. The local gunshop couldn't recomend anyone. A quick Google search turns up plenty of gunsmiths, but none nearby. So, what should...

I have a bunch of Greek surplus .30-06 that's been really accurate. I can only assume that the brass is nice and consistant - perfect for reloading. The only problem is that darned primer crimp. Any thoughts on how to best remove that crimp?

I recently picked up a Mossberg 12 guage. It's a home defense or police type weapon, not a sporting gun. I never really inteded to use it for defense, but the longer it sits in the safe the more I wonder whether it really belongs in the bedroom. I have a few questions about using the thing...

Anybody bought a CMP Garand recently? They seem to be down to the last few rifles, and I'm concerned that all they have left are the dregs. So, if anybody has ordered a rifle from them recently, can you tell me what you thought of the rifle they gave you?

It's often comforting to know that others share your views, especially when those views are particularly controversial. I've made a certain observation about the lawlessness in New Orleans. It's a pretty obvious observation, but it's not one that is socially acceptible to discuss. Thus...

Someone please recomend a bullet to use in my .45 acp practice loads. My priorities are cost, convenience, and quality (in that order). Also, where's the best place to buy these bullets from? Thanks!

What's up with CZ and Dan Wesson???? Dan Wesson's website has been replaced by this, and this is now listed on CZ's website. Someone please tell me that DW has not been bought out by CZ :uhoh:

Can someone please splain to me how the USP's interchangable trigger variants work? The HK website does an adequate job describing the type of trigger operation that each variant provides, in an abstract sort of sense. But it doesn't say a derned thing about how to get the specific variant I...
