Does anyone know what thread might be standard on the Nipple (New Orleans Ace pistol...from Classic Arms). This was given to me used as a gift, and I removed the nipple to replace it and the threads (on the Brass Frame) look like they could use a bit of re-tapping...before putting in a new...

WHAT is the best CHEAP (yet reliable) ammo in 30-06 150grainers? I got myself a new Rem700 in 30-06 and I'm thinking of Elk this year. My original plan was to get a bunch of cheap FMJ for practice, then a box of Nosler partitions for hunting. But, I'm changing my mind. WHAT is the best...

I typically like a red-dot, but I'm thinking some slight magnification would be good for coyotes. I don't typically risk shots out past 200yds with my old eyes anymore...and this AR Coyote stuff is new to me. I'm not looking to spend the money for an Aimpoint/Trijicon/etc, and Magnifier...

Okay, here's my problem. When I was 17 I traded my .300weatherby Remington 721 that Dad had given me for an M1Garand...and to this day I never will hear the end of making such a dumb move. (the rifle had irreplacable sentimental value). It was a Rem721 that was originally in .300H&H and...

I just worked a trade for a S&W 6906...so I've never actually shot it. (waiting on it's arrival!) Anyone have any "hands on" opinions of this little rig? Thanks! :cool:

I've ALMOST decided on a Kahr CW45. Anybody have one with happy results?

If you were going to CCW (IWB) a .45acp, AND let your wife use it to CCW also, what would be your WEAPON OF CHOICE? My wife is pretty small, so it's gotta be a pretty small frame, and of course the smaller the better for my IWB carry. I'm happy with say 5+ rounds or better, as it's MORE...

I would like to drill/tap my 442 for an adjustable rear site (for small single mounting screw, in the center of the existing gutter site). As you can see in the pictures below, S&W does make some "factory" J-frames that have been both tapped and dovetailed for adjustable rear sites, but does...

Has anyone carried or had any experience with anything more than a 158gr bullet in a .38 special? I like my .38 158gr. buffalo's...but I'm curious. :cool:

I am a believer in the larger/heavier school of stopping power. I currently have a SW Jframe 442, and I keep Buffalo Bores 158gr HP's in it...but I sometimes wonder why a 180gr or 200gr load has not been manufactured...is this an UNSAFE combination out of a 2" barrel? It seems that they...

From Springfield... :banghead:

I just purchased a Winchester Model 100 .308 circa about 1961. It appears to be in excellent condition. Should I be worried about firing today's modern .308 rounds in a rifle dated from the 1960's? It's just so pretty I couldn't pass it up...I don't have a picture yet, but will try to get...

I've decided on a KAHR P45 for my CCW rig, and now I'm still trying to finalize my holster choice. The problem is warm weather. Does anyone carry something similar with shorts and a polo shirt type clothing? I will carry strong side under a polo shirt, but I'm still torn between IWB or OWB...

I'm lost! I have recently purchased 2 handguns for near future CCW (and hopefully IDPA/USPSA or similar) use: A SW442 (.38)revolver, and a KAHR P45 (.45) and I want to get involved with competition pistol shooting of some type (after the CCW class) to improve my shooting / training with my...

"My first priority will be to reinstate the assault weapons ban as soon as I take office. Within 90 days, we will go back after kitchen table dealers, and work to end the gun show and internet sales loopholes. In the first year, I intend to work with Congress on a national no carry law, 1 gun a...

Should I get a couple hours of private school instruction just on drawstroke to start Tactical Pistol training? I'm a complete "tactical" pistol novice. I want to start with the 100% proper drawstroke, and need the proper instruction to do that correctly. Still deciding on carry...

I had to share this new purchase (my new baby!): It's my FIRST .45, and so I don't know much about which .45 round for home defense / possible short range plainclothes patrol defensive round? 230gr JHP?

I just recently purchased a SW442, and will CCW it and keep it as a bedroom gun. So I've been comapring ammo specifications (assuming there's ever any more on the store shelves) and have found some surprises. I had been hearing about the 135grain Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel HP's, and was...

I Won't be hunting at all here in Az, except with a Camera, and I will take 00 buckshot on Photo expeditions here. But summers in Alaska I want something that would be as effective against Bear as possible (last ditch emergency/close range), and I'm not sure exactly WHAT slug that would be...

I know this may be sacrilage (similar to the same question about the 1911). But there's several 1911's now that are polymer. When will someone do one for the beloved HiPower???? (please). :)
