    Movie Gun Question

    Okay, I am going to be honest, and I hope you will, too. You will receive no judgment from me. How many of you carry a certain gun if you go to watch a movie or have a certain gun sitting out if you watch something at the house based off what the show or movie is? Examples: The wife and I...

    My New '99

    I picked up a nice little Savage '99 carbine with a Weaver K3 post yesterday; although it isn't a '99H. I believe it is a '99 EG in 250-3000 made around 1952 or 1953.

    NFA/ATF Change Of Address

    I received a letter from the ATF in the mail about 2 weeks ago. I saw it and thought :what::confused::uhoh::rolleyes: all at the same time. I am currently between NFA builds or purchases, so what the heck is this. After opening it I was like :rolleyes:, my change of address has been processed. I...

    Re-tabs On Fingerprint Card

    Just wanted to pass along some info in case y'all ever have this happen. When I went down to the SO to get my last NFA paperwork signed (Form 4 for SWR Trident 9) some younger new guy did my prints. He smudged one single finger, and said, "No big deal; we'll do a re-tab." He then put a...

    HELP!!! I need flintlock info...

    I found a pair of reproduction flintlock pistols at a friends gunshop, and he wants $150 for the pair. They are copies of about a mid-1700's British pistol, and were made in Japan. I know that this is very, very little information to go on, but... Do you think they are priced right, a good...

    Help, I can't make up my mind!

    I have 2 choices here for a new gun, and I can't make up my mind. So, I have come to you. My wife and I have loved to go tent camping up in the mountains for years(no, not where we live in OK), and I have always kept my 45/70 Guide Gun around camp just in case we had any nasty, unwelcomed...

    6" Gold Cup

    A guy I know says he has a 6" Series 70 Gold Cup that he wants to sell. I love 1911's, but with the exception of my 1927 Sistema, my knowledge of 1911's is really from 1995 on up to now. I have seen other longslides; custom ones, AMT, etc.; however, I have never seen a factory Colt one...

    Bond Arms .45LC/.410 ?'s

    I have had a Bond Arms Cowboy Defender in .357 Mag for a while, and I love it. Before everyone gets started, I'm NOT asking for everyday CCW; I carry a 1911 and a P3AT for that. This is for pure fun, plinking, carrying once in a blue moon, novelty, etc. Anyway, how is the .410 recoil in...

    T/C Scot Questions

    T/C Scout Questions Anyone else out there have a T/C Scout? In searching the forums I only found two threads that even mention them. I picked one up the other day as a very small part of a trade. I took it out to the range after cleaning it up really, really well. I shot it twice and it...

    3" Mod. 686

    A friend of mine says he has a 3" Model 686 bought somewhere around 1992 that he wants to get rid of. I have seen lots of 4" and 2 1/2" ones but never a 3". Did they actually make a 3" at one time and I just never have run across one? If so, a picture of one would be great. Thanks.

    Heritage Arms .17HMR/.17Mach2 (w/ 2 cylinders)

    I saw one of these in my friends gun shop the other day. Has anyone tried one yet. I have tried one in .22LR/.22 Mag and liked it, especially at less than half the price of a Singe Six. Another friend is going crazy trying to figure out how to get one. I think it is a pretty neet gun and...

    Savage 99

    I have a Savage 99 in 250 Savage.The serial # is 6542xx. I was wondering what year it was made; the best answer I have found so far is,"after 1950." I also have 2 questions about the barrel. Did Savage ever stamp them 250 Savage, or were they always stamped 250-3000? And, what is the rate of...

    Japanese Arisaka in 6.5x55 Swedish I've got an old Jap type 38 in 6.5 and I've been thinking about having it rechambered to the 6.5x55 Swedish round. I know that this conversion used to be real popular; so, if any of you have has done this I'd like your opinions about the rifle and the round...

    Adjustable Sight Commander

    What did you say???

    I could be the poster child for the modern day version of the old hearing protection warning ad. A guy held an ear plug in one hand and a hearing aid in the other. He said,"You can wear these now (earplugs) or wear these later (hearing aid)." I'm olny 28 years old, and I pull the hearing...

    truth about old loads???

    I've heard (read) several different opinions about this on THR and TFL over the last few years, but I wanted to ask y'all since I figured reloaders have probably read more about this than others. I have an old nickled S&W 38/44 HD my grandad carried for 30 years as LEO, and I picked up a...
