I was thinking while commenting on the thread about Dick's sporting goods. That maybe, in addition to writing letters and boycotting anti-gun companies maybe we should write letters of encouragement and thanks to companies like Academy and the like for increasing their selection of sporting...

I'm looking at an auction of a blued revolver that someone spray painted silver. What can I use to remove the paint without removing the blueing? Some of the paint is flaking off and the blueing looks pretty good.

I just bought a Ruger Gunsite scout and I am wondering if anyone hunts with a scout scope? And if you did how did you do? I haven't bought a scope yet and can mount a scout scope or a normal scope in the more conventional location. I've never used a scout scope and want to give it a try, but not...

Anyone use handguns for your primary home defense needs even though rifles and shotguns are more effective? I know my AR's or my Mossbergs would be better for home defense but with children in the house I don't have a fast way to access them. I've used an electronic GunVault for years that is...

Looks like Colt is going to reproduce the M16A1 AND XM177 and others in upcoming years. Kind of cool. http://looserounds.com/2016/05/20/colts-semi-m16a1-and-xm177-coming-soon/

I just stumbled on to this, today. This guy apparently discovered that Frog Lube is coconut oil with at touch of fragrance. https://www.northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/threads/302999-Frog-Lube-is-Coconut-Oil-You-heard-it-here-first

When I saw this movie as a kid I wanted this gun so badly. Alas, I still can't have it, they're predicting it will sell for at least $100,000. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/22/20090410/twl-life-us-auction-9020220.html BTW, does anybody know from what real guns were used to cobble together this prop?

I was shooting Corbon 9mm 115gr +P in my S&W 940, a J-Frame 9mm revolver, and it locked up. This is nothing new because it is kind of finicky in what it will shoot, example Blazers expand and lock it up. Anyway, it locks up I take it home and find that the primer looks to have expanded into the...

I've always kind of wanted a Hi-Power but I don't really need anther 9mm. I've seen some 40S&W Hi-Powers on CDNN for around $300 and at that price they are pretty attractive. My question is, that gun was designed with the 9mm round in mind, do they hold up, are they beefed up and/or just have...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/worldlatest/story/0,1280,-5439711,00.html Millions without water. Looks nasty, benzene is a top notch toxic chemical, severe cancer causing chemical to boot. It is not only limited to China but Russia as well. They better watch it or their industry that is making...

If you are having an argument with an anti-firearms ownership person, this may be the site for you. This guy pretty much deconstructs all of their arguments. Long, but it is a very detailed, good read. http://www.guncite.com/journals/reycrit.html Mods: This may belong in legal and...

I was trying to take some nice photos of my Savage, 99CD my nicest looking rifle, and found it to be vastly more difficult than shooting photos of handguns. They are too long, duh. Here are my attempts. Let's see your good long gun photos.

Saw this one just a minute ago: http://www.auctionarms.com/search/displayitem.cfm?itemnum=6942663 Wouldn't this be considered a short barreled rifle or is it old enough not to count? I believe there ar some Lugers that are exempted/grandfathered from the law?

Do Colt Defenders use the same grip panels as the Colt Officer's Model?

I asked this question about three weeks ago: Question Change a Colt from 38 Super to 45ACP? Your answers were lots of machining, new barrel, new ejector, new extractor and the slide will no longer work with 38 Supers. So that was a no go. Now I am thinking about a Colt Commander, any...

I replaced a Colt I had regretted selling for years. I sold a Colt Officer's ACP in bright stainless steel to pay for car repairs when I was a poor college student. I hated letting that one go, it was so pretty it was like art that could shoot bullets. Well I found my replacement for that...

I own three guns made for hunting but I don't hunt or I don't hunt yet. I own an Remington 870 12ga which I shoot some clays with but I don't hunt birds. I own a Savage Model 99CD in 308WIN but I don't hunt deer or hogs. I own a Weatherby in 300WBY but I don't hunt elk or moose. I'm planning on...

Anyone have a ballpack figure on what a Blued Python cylinder might cost? My Python was bought used and then I noticed that one of the cylinders notches is quite a bit bigger than the others (from wear?). So in double action it skips or overshoots that hole. It works fine in single action...

I keep reading/hearing comments on how you shouldn't touch the newer Colt XSE's with a 10' pole but the XS's are fine. They look the same in photos to me. What is the difference and what is the XSE lacking? Quality, parts, what?

I may buy a Colt Government model in 38 Super. To change it over to 45ACP(If one day I want to do that) I would need to: 1. Change the barrel. 2. Get new magazines. After that I really don't know... 3. New Extractor? 4. New Ejector? Any information would be great, thanks.
