    Recommend a mount

    Maybe I am asking the wrong question, or there is a better option to get the same results. Already have the rifle and scope but this model comes with 20 moa integral rail machined into the receiver from the factory. My intended use for this rifle means the 20 moa base is a hindrance. I want...

    Id military case

    https://www.shopjfi.com/66-x-20-x-17-1-2-us-army-green-waterproof-aluminum-storage-crate.html Any idea what these were used for originally? G80851-249 Looks like something with high end electronics that needed to be protected to ensure function. Guidance system comes to mind.

    So how do YOU get a gun guy to try something new?

    Maybe I missed something in your post. Why is it your responsibility to make him clean his guns? If he is unwilling to change why would he expect his accuracy to change.

    Custom gun makers

    Westley Richards is pretty impressive. I think they may be nicer than H&H.

    Custom gun makers

    In your opinion who makes the finest bespoke rifles? Not value for money, not the most over the top custom work done as a one off. But most prestigious

    Rossi 841

    Picked up one of those 841's the Brazilian Police used as a door stop. I had some free time this afternoon so I stripped (it was filthier than a politician's mouth) sand blasted it, hit it with some caswell blackening gel. The grips got some 120 grit and poly. So it looks worlds better than it...

    A pair of pistols for my progeny

    Getting something classic is a good point I had not considered future parts availability. I checked out Les Baer but those prices are outside my budget. https://www.lesbaer.com/prices.html seems like the consensus is mostly 1911 or high powers with custom/refinish work. I'm just concerned $2000...

    A pair of pistols for my progeny

    I want to get a nice pair of pistols and set them aside for my boys when they are old enough. I thought a pair of consecutive number sig p220 equinox would be cool. But the guy at the store was really talking up the p227. Then he mentioned the elite and the elite dark. Now I'm not sure which...

    Colt Gold Cup- how good is it?

    I picked up a series 80 nmgc for $550 a few years ago. I felt it was over priced for the performance it offered. I didn't see anything special over any other 1911. For a grand or better I would pick up sig.

    Is it possible?

    I think there was some confusion, the rifle was not taken to duck hunt with but taken along with the express purpose of being shot in a some what isolated location, where the report might be mistaken for a hunter. I will add there was a second person with binoculars that helped identify hits...

    Is it possible?

    I was related this story second hand so I don't have a lot of details. My gut reaction the first time hearing it was total malarkey, but thinking it over I wonder if there is an outside chance it was true. Without going into a lot of the back story it goes something like this. A guy has a h&h...

    AR-10

    The plot thickens! I didn't realize there was a big difference between .308 AR pattern rifles. Well I like the AR platform and I want to shoot .308 if it is an armalite upscaled AR-15, or a DPMS LR-308 is really of no consequence. As far as slapping a .308 upper on I would need a .308 lower as...

    AR-10

    I did the AR-15 thing and Im ready to step up to an AR-10. After a curserory scan of the usual vendors I have arrived at the conclusion AR-10 are nowhere near as prolific. If you built your own AR-10 where did you source your parts?

    anybody know my stepbrother

    My favorite is someone I work with. "Why don't you give me an AR-15?" "Well it cost me $800 to build and a fair bit of time tracking down parts, and I really don't want to sell it." "But I want it." "Ok, what will you give me for it?" "Friendship"

    Magazine compatability

    I just picked up my first beretta M9 I also purchased 5 mags to go with it. The magazines looked really familiar so I flipped through my box of spare mags. The Beretta 92 series magazines are identical to CZ-75 magazines. The difference is the location of the magazine catch. 10 minutes with a...

    Why does no one make a completely GI issue 1911?

    I'll don my nomex suit now. My dad has a real WW1 1911. It is a piece of crap. It rattles, the barrel will actually wobble inside the bushing because the tolerances are so loose, the poor sights match the poor accuracy. Anything besides round nose lead is a dicey proposition at best. I have...

    Semi-auto .22

    I am in the market for a new .22LR pistol. I had a ruger 22/45 that was great to shoot but was such a pain in the butt to clean I just got rid of it, now I wish I had put a volquartsen lower on it but whatever. I was kicking around the idea of a browning buck mark but I hear they are a mess to...
