    Sorry if a dumb question but if I want to build an AR and in the future use a blackout upper do I need to use a multi caliber lower? thanks

    palmetto state armory

    Looking at the site it seems everything (nearly) is out of stock? Does one just keep looking or do you just place order and wait? Thanks and sorry if this has been gone over before.

    Iver johnson .410

    I recently got an old Iver johnson .410 champion from a family member. I almost passed on it thinking it was just some old piece of junk that would take up space in the safe. Then I got it home and checked it out and discovered that it is a very nice tight and seemingly well made little gun...

    remington 597 .17 rebarrel

    A while back I described how a friends .17 remington 597 blasted the mag out the bottom and all over the place. From advice here I suggested he send it back for a 22 mag rebarrel. Well it worked and he just got it back from Remington with a new barrel and magazine. Thanks for the help.

    remington 597/.17

    Remington 597 in .17. I recently had one of these rifles (not mine) blow the magazine to pieces out the bottom. First time for me. Made me glad I was wearing eyes and that it was not a larger caliber. After some searching (for my friend) I was wondering if anyone here has had success in...

    new airport new sign

    We just got a new airport here in sw michigan. Along with new airport came signs on the doors saying no weapons. The airport is not one of the places on our ccw that you can not carry. So the county can put up a sign and it is law?

    I did a search but did not see anything. It seems like I have heard of some saftey issues with the 1897 shotguns? Maybe It was a dream. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    Ap 30.06

    Back in the day it was easy to find the black tip 30.06 at gun shows. I'm curious did that stuff have any lead around the penetrator or was it just a copper jacket?

    cresent empire hammerless

    An uncle has this shotgun. Number 60 sxs in 12 gauge. He is looking for new flat springs, the internal hammers and firing pins. Are these items around ? Granted it may be more expensive to fix than replace but there is sentimental value involved. Is this thing safe to shoot if he does find the...

    dikar .45 6 inch barrel

    How many grains for this gun is safe? I am in a text conversation with some guys who have one loaded with 90. I said no more than the caliber.

    stevens s x s exposed hammers

    Saw an older Stevens side x side with exposed hammers at a gun shop. Model 235 ? maybe? Is this a gun that could be fired with modern ammo? It did not say wall hanger or anything but I am still curious. It appeared to be in good solid shape and was only 250 bucks. Thanks.

    machine gun barrel temp

    I recently read a discription of a machine gun barrel becoming white hot and it it being possible to see the darker bullet going down the barrel. Is this possible or was it a writers exageration? He also described the ejected brass as being so hot that they would stick to your skin like a...

    wasr and hollow points

    My wasr ak-47 clone seems to have real trouble feeding the hollow tip ammo. Anyone else have this? Is it possible to correct? Can I make that little ramp going into the chamber bigger? Maybe I should just avoid those dumb hollow tips. What the heck are they good for anyway? Thanks, jim

    zulu

    A friend handed his very weird looking old shotgun over to me to figure out what it was. With a little google I figured it to be a Zulu of some kind, so an old musket converted to a trap door shotgun. I guess. Anyway is it safe to conclude that no really sane person would attempt to actually...

    coach gun extractor

    I know, I know but I bought one of those cheap chinese double barrel exposed hammers shotgun. It has worked great for years. I took it apart for transport and that little piece of metal that normally pokes out the bottom of the fore grip vanished. I guess that worked the extracting feature...

    olympic shooting

    Just watching some badasses on ski's shooting little tiny targets. Very cool. I have to say that this might be the first time I have been watching the tv and actually get a gun pointed back at me. When they are going from skiing to shooting the camera guy is getting swept. I think its a great event.
