I am considering a Sig in .40 or 357Sig, and I have a quick question about the conversion to 9mm. I know it is fairly simple, just a conversion barrel, maybe some springs and maybe mags, but I have heard that the sights can be a problem after the conversion, in that POA/POI might not be the same...

Hey guys, I'm new to this idea, but I really want to get into reloading for the savings factor. I've heard it might not be as substantial as it's made out to be, but nevertheless, anything is better than nothing at all. The problem is, I have no idea where to begin as far as a basic reloading...

Would it be a sin to add Novak's aftermarket picatinny rail to the dustcover?

So I have a S&W 1911 that I like alot, but in order to make it really work for me, I'm going to have to do some add-ons/part replacements etc. Nothing big, I mean the gun is pretty reliable, so I don't really think I'm going to do too much to it, but I want to change the safety, MSH, get the...

http://thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=412226&page=2 SM's post on this page spurred an important discussion of its own, and rather than watering down that thread with more comments about it, I thought I would give it its own thread because I think it's very interesting and important (at...

So, in my quest for a new mid-long range bolt action rifle, I have come across another stumbling point, my future optics. I understand that the scope might be the worst possible place to skimp as far as money is concerned, but the price on most Leupold scopes out there is just ridiculous. I've...

I'm not sure if this is a dumb question, but I can't find an HK417 (or 416 really) anywhere...are they not available for retail at this point, or can someone point me in a direction where I might be able to find one for a decent (HK decent) price? Thanks alot!

Maybe I'm not looking hard enough, but it seems that S&W does not offer a compact model of the M&P 45. Is there any reason for this? I would love to have one of these, but it seems as though it is not in their lineup the way the "C" models are for 9mm and 40...anyone know if it might be coming?

hey guys, im about to order some davidson grips for my 1911, and im just wondering which pattern you guys think provides the most grip on the weapon. the ones i am considering are the horned lizard (diagonal pattern, looks dynamite) and the warthog (checkered pattern, looks good but not quite as...

im looking for a pistol that can be concealed fairly easily, even in the summer (at least most of the time, sometimes i would probably just go with the j frame i plan to buy by then, but since its not 100 degrees out yet ive decided to concentrate my funds here). id like to stay with the 1911...

so i have searched the forum and researched this caliber alot, but i wanted to ask for myself...im considering buying a bolt gun that comes in either 308 or 300 wsm, likely an fn psr (or possibly an spr, or pbr, damn these acronyms, or maybe a remington 700 variant). all seem to be excellent...

i just bought a s&w performance center 1911, and it a great gun, and has been 100% reliable etc. my only problem with this gun is some sort of combination of the grip safety and the thumb safety...i'm right handed, and if i grip the gun with my right thumb riding on top of the thumb safety, i...

i just got my hands on a smith and wesson performance center 1911, the black melonite model, and i have two questions-first, are all the parts, at least the outer parts, melonite coated as well? i want to switch out the msh to an arched version, which brings me to my second question, if they are...

im not really sure if this is the right place to put this, but i was just wondering if anyone knew the procedure for traveling with a firearm on a train. I have never travelled by train before so forgive my ignorance but since ticket prices are so high for airlines im considering making my next...

i know there are hundreds out there, but i am looking for a mid size carry piece that will be easier to conceal than my gov. model...the two pistols im considering are at completely opposite ends of the spectrum, but here goes...the first is a smith & wesson 1911pd-i love this platform and since...

fn's rifle names are getting a little confusing (SPR, PBR, PSR), but i was just wondering if anyone has seen in person or had a chance to try out fn's new PSR (Precision Shooting Rifle, i think). im also wondering if they have not really arrived on the market yet, because i have been looking for...

just wondering how you average sized guys are concealing you 5" 1911s...im probably going to end up getting another piece to carry more easily but since that is a little ways off, and i know plenty of people do it, i just wanted to see/hear what you guys think are the best setups to do this...

I have saved and saved, and i am now able to go in on a custom 1911 (caspian frame, slide). my only problem is, my only experience with 1911s is shooting them (which i've done a lot of). probably going to end up laying down a good chunk of change for this, so i want to do it right. heres the fun...

im considering putting up the cash to buy a new rifle...im looking for a pretty accurate 308. im torn between moving away from a bolt platform, remington 700 in particular, to the possibility of an ar-10 platform. this will mainly be a range/target gun, but might make its way to the woods on a...

im shopping around for a new 1911 style pistol, and since i am in massachusetts my options are very slim. i will almost certainly choose a smith & wesson, and i prefer a black look to stainless, although i'm not totally set in that decision. my main problem is that i am trying to do my best to...
