Hi, I'm looking to put a decent laser on my Taurus G3. I've been looking online and pistol lasers run from around $15 at the low end to upwards of $300. I can afford up to $100, but no more than that. Does anyone make a good laser that will fit the Taurus G3 for that kind of money, or...

I see a lot of reports on the Taurus G3c ("c" for compact) but very little about the larger Taurus G3. I'm looking for opinions on the G3 because I'm thinking of buying one. Also, if I do buy one, I'd like to put a laser on it but I don't want to spend more than $100 for the laser. Any...

Hey, I've got a spray can of 3-IN-ONE LOCK DRY LUBE and I'm wondering if it would be okay to use to lube firearm internals. The damn printing on the can is too small for me to read. I haven't used it on a gun, but may try it on a semi-auto pistol to see how it does UNLESS someone here tells...

Hi, For the past couple of days I have been searching online for a CZ 82 to buy. Here's the problem. Many different sellers list multiple CZ 82s for sale with accompanying photos. But when you blow up these photos, you can see it is the EXACT SAME PISTOL right down to the serial number...

Hi, Would you agree this is tarnish as opposed to rust on this firearm? I'm thinking of buying it IF it's only tarnish. If it's rust, I'm going to pass on it. If it IS tarnish, what's the best way to remove it? Thank you.

Hi, I talked to two people at Taurus customer service about this. While they were nice, pleasant people, they have no idea what this number designates. I'm hoping one of you die-hard Taurus guys might know. The number is 3342. It is stamped on the yolk below the 689 model number. I have...

Hi, I bought this revolver, a Taurus Mod. 689, today. I have not shot it yet. I did notice the marks on the cylinder while I was examining it but thought, "Eh, it doesn't look too bad." But I looked at the area under a lot of magnification tonight and now I'm concerned. As I said, it...

New (old) Taurus 689. Whaddya think? Hey, I saw this Taurus Model 689 online and bought it. It looks like a first cousin to the S&W 586s and 686s. I picked it up today and did all the "Buying a used revolver" tests on it and it passed them all with not even a hint of a problem. This...

Hi, I saw what I thought was an S&W Mod. 586 over the weekend at a local gun store. When I got closer, I saw it was a Taurus Mod. 689. It has a 4" barrel with vent ribs, it has an attractive glossy biue finish and nice wood grips with the gold Taurus medallion. There is a very slight cylinder...

Hi, How "free" should a free floating be? I tried the dollar bill test and the bill slid down fairly easily between the barrel and the stock MOST of the way until it WAS 2-3" away from the end. Then the bill got hung up and I tore it. The stock is synthetic so some gentle sanding would fix...

Hey, I've been bitten by the rimfire bug. Again. Been looking at the Model 795 and the (not a Marlin) Mossberg 702 Plinkster. And I'm fairly well educated on them. But now an older Marlin has entered into the mix. I've come across a Marlin 75C. It was made in 1984. It has a barrel tube and...

I did a search here on the AT3 Tactical red dot sight and came up dry. Then I tried just "red dot sight" and came up with a ton of them, but again, no AT3. Anyway, I'm looking for opinions on this sight. It's supposed to be 2 MOA. Is it? How's the quality?

Hi, I'm confused a bit. I'd like to buy a Model 795 rimfire rifle. Here's what I've read so far: 1. "Only buy an older Model 795, ones with the JM stamp. The 795 has gone downhill sense Remington started making them." 2. "The Remlin 795s (Remington/Marlin) are every bit as good, maybe...

Can anyone here tell me if the sights on Sig P series pistols are transferable? Specifically, I have a 1998 "MADE IN GERMANY" P226 and need to know if sights from a P220 will fit. The P220s are #8 sights front and rear. Thanks. *Admins and mods, I asked this question earlier today in the...

Hey, Can I chop a 24" Mossberg 500 barrel which has rifle sights on it down to 18.5" and reinstall the front rifle sight blade? I have a chance to buy the 24" barrel but have not seen it. Therefore I have no idea how the blade is attached to the barrel or if it can be reinstalled. Why do I...

Hi, I was going to shoot my .357 today. Haven't shot it for years. Cracked open an older box of Blazer .357, 158gr JHP. Half of the bullets are covered by a white, powdery substance. It wipes off easily enough but I have never seen anything like it. Any ideas what it is? And much more...

, I have a 10/22 Takedown with a Bug Buster scope mounted up top on the Ruger supplied mount. The scope is 9.8" long. For some reason I have the itch to add a*laser sight*to my Takedown and bought one though it has not yet arrived.The*laser sight*is 4.75" inches long. I'm looking for ideas as...

Please take a look at the photo below. It is a brand new Kahr PM9 slide from an as yet unfired pistol. It is the blemish on the DLC coating, just back from the muzzle end of the slide, that is bugging me. I noticed the blemish when I was examining the pistol after picking it up and taking...

If you could only have one, which would you choose and why? A. Brand new two tone CM9. B. Older (Jan. 2006) PM9 with Black Diamond finish. Please no, "I'd never own one. They're made in Korea by religious cultists," crap. Please limit your choice to one of the two pistols listed AND...

Hi, Bought an older, hardly used PM9 this week. The seller said he probably had fewer than 20 rds through it. Said he just didn't like it so he cleaned it and put it away and it has sat in his cabinet since 2006 when it was made. I called Kahr and it was indeed made in 2006. He let me...
