    My EDC Knife Evolution

    TL;DR warning Although I have owned various knives- mainly slipjoints as a young man, since I was 10; I often lost them.

    10/22 chamber disforming bullet

    I was attaching the scope rail on my 10/22 and I noticed that chambering a round results in this type of marking (it is more than a mark, it is 'dented') of the bullet. Can anyone weigh in on this?

    New to Scopes: Need Suggestion

    Hi guys, My rifle shooting up until now has always been at a range of 100 yards or less and I have zero experience with scopes only with iron sights. I got a Ruger 10/22 last year and I decided I wanted to put a scope on it. I got a Nikon Prostaff 4x32 Rimfire scope but I am not sure what...

    Maybe Seling a used Leupold?

    I want to sell my used Leupold scope; I used it on one hunting trip for elk. Although I am still a gun enthusiast, I decided hunting was not my deal. This scope has been sitting on my rifle in the safe since then (maybe 3 years). I don't shoot the rifle at the range cause it is a .300 WSM and...

    The PA 63 and me.

    Obviously, being a member of this community smacks of being a gun enthusiast, and, admittedly I have a soft spot for the C&R firearms. After a good deal of research, I found a store in Texas selling PA 63s for $189.99. I did my due dilligence- seems to be a well made pistols at a low price; I...

    .357mag Lever gun Applications

    Hi Gents, Two years ago, I got my first lever action. A 50's production Winchester 1894 in .30-30. Really like the gun. Good kick, steel butt plate, just enough oopmh. For one reason or another, I have became infatuated with a lever gun in .357 mag. I just cannot seem to find a reason to buy...

    Surplus Semi auto dilemma

    Hi Guys- I am in the market for a new-to-me rifle; a surplus semi auto. I don't want to mess with a Hakim or Rashee. I am pretty much narrowed down to a FN-49; don't care if it is 7mm, 8mm or 30-06. Either chambering, ammunition will be more expensive then the other rifle on my short...

    Gun Purchase 'Deferred'

    I went to Cabela's a few weeks back to buy a 10/22. I had my Kansas DL and the paperwork showing the transfer of my FL CCW for a Kansas CWP (I also had my FL CCW which Kansas reciprocates with). They run my info, comeback and tell me I am being 'deferred' - the ATF cannot process my info right...

    What are you buying with a $1000 'allowance?'

    Wifey said I can take $1000 from the tax refund and buy a pistol- specific about that. Also, something she can handle- she shoots my Commander 1911 in .40 no problem. I kinda wanted a CZ-97BD, but that is too big for her hands. I have a H&R .22lr revolver through Springfield Trophy Match 1911s-...

    Dagnabbit!

    I was disassembling my SKS to clean in my basement/storage area. I ejected the op rod ~30 feet into a pile of boxes and have been looking for it about 3 hours to no avail.

    S&W 686....weird

    Okay, I pull out my 686 and I am going to work on DA firing- so I am going to dryfire it. I open the cylinder and push on the ejector rod- it doesn't move. So I really push on it and it is stuck.

    10/22 Optics Question

    I recently bought a base model Ruger 10/22 and want to scope it. Since the gun is for plinking and didn't cost me a chunk of change, I am not going silly with the scope. I am pretty set on the Simmons .22 Mag scope. Anyone have this scope? The Ruger came with a Weaver rail and the Simmons...

    7.62x39 S&B Soft Points- anything else?

    I want to get the best cartridge for this chamerbing for deer; I normally buy from at Cabella's and this is the only brand they had. Can any of my fellow forum members recommend something better?
