    SMLE Charger Bridge?

    I just picked up two Lee Enfields at a gun show... one for me, and one I'll be holding for a buddy until he gets his firearms permit (I love being a Canadian, but the license requirement just sucks). After getting them home, I noticed one of the two rifles was missing a piece... after some...

    .338 for deer - heavy and slow vs light and fast?

    I'm going deer hunting for the first time later this year, so I'm starting on my load development now. I'll be using a .338 win mag - yeah, I know that's pretty heavy for deer, but it's what I have, so part of my load development is trying to find the bullet that's going to do the least meat...

    Making an old shotgun useable again?

    I tried asking this question on another site, but no one has weighed in on it yet, so I thought I would try my luck here. I have an old side by side Alger Arms 12 gauge. I have been advised not to run shells through it without taking it to a gunsmith because of its age. I didn't want to...

    Not about guns per se... but, in the event of gun control advocates winning ground, I think a number of people would be interested in how this news may apply to gun owners and their privacy: http://http://www.news.com/FBI-taps-cell-phone-mic-as-eavesdropping/2100-1029_3-6140191.html

    Identifying an old shotgun

    I have an old side by side 12 gauge made by the Alger Arms Company. I'm trying to get a clearer picturer of when the gun was made. Originally, I'd been thinking of trying to shoot it, but unless someone could definitively tell me it was safe, I think I've put that out of my head. But I'm...

    What gauge for smaller people?

    I've got a friend who agreed she will try "hicking it up" with me, and try clay pigeon shooting - well, guns in general - but I think she'll enjoy that more. The problem is - the last time I was out with her, she decided she wanted to try my 12 gauge - and panicked at the last moment as she...

    H&R Pardner Waterfowl

    I've done some digging around on my local sporting goods store's website, and came across the H&R Pardner Waterfowl 10 gauge... and that got me thinking. I've kinda wanted a 10 gauge, just for the sake of having one for awhile now. I've also been wanting to work myself up to big bore rifles...
