    Chaote style stock for 870 with a horizontal sling slot?

    Does anyone remember seeing something like that in the 80's? Like a fixed stock with a full pistol grip but instead of a sling swivel there was just a horizontal slot through the stock?

    Colt parts are slow coming

    Still waiting on a reply from Colt on my broken trigger return spring on my 2017 Cobra. According to my gunsmith Colt has not put all the parts out to Brownell's etc and there is some kind of back log or delay on Colt's end.

    I want to engrave an upper

    Have a .308 marked lower. Would like my upper marker .243 Winchester in bold letters deep enough that I can color fill. Looking for someone in the front range/Denver area in Colorado.

    Any recommendations for a pocket holster Colt 2017 Cobra

    As I am going about my day to day at my bug in locale, I am finding my galco speed scabbard just not to my liking (it's not an exact fit. it's for my Magnum Carry). For a small revolver it's taking up a lot of real estate on my belt. Looking for ideas for a pocket holster or a paddle style...

    Big Iron done right?

    https://auctions.morphyauctions.com/_A__CUT_DOWN_MODEL_COLT_1855_REVOLVING_SHOTGUN_-LOT467716.aspx Someone made a horse pistol bigger than a Walker. Love to see this thing as a reproduction!

    Getting this Cobra figured out

    Take that flying pig! 6 rds rapid fire 158 gr swc, 5.5 gr power pistol. Colt cobra, 5 yards. 6 shots slow fire. 3 inch circle, 7 yards. I loaded some +p with 6 grains.. shoots about 4 inches high at the same range! That's some recoil. No stuck cases or flattened primers but as it got...

    Are there names for the parts of a brass triggerguard/handrest?

    I suspect there are but I can't find them. This site lists 183 styles described by region but not by function. Most Pennsylvania rifles seem to be based on German Jaeger designs (German gunsmiths) but I can't find nomenclature on the fiddly bits...

    Shot my first match since October

    Dang it felt good. A little slow on transitions, and I had to think about dismounting the rooftop prop, but I had fun and didn't finish last. Pueblo west tactical rifle, 3 stages today. Funny thing the last position was a seemingly easy prone under a spool.. lots of shooters switched to a 20...

    Mossberg 51

    Handled one at a Cabela's today with a vintage 4x scope, what a neat old rifle. Love the Planet of the Apes feel it it. Does anyone have one? Pics and stories if you do? How do they shoot?

    Heard of A.MERC brass?

    Thickest 45acp brass I have found in my stash.. my rockchucker is struggling to move it. I've only found a handful--was this +p or something?

    Cleaning RCBS powder measure

    Got done loading some Alliant Power Pistol and when I pour off the leftovers I have a band of powder stuck to the inside of my measure. Dry environment, so moisture not an issue .. possibly static? Whats the best way to clean it out before switching powder?

    Shut up and take my money! Retro 4x Colt Optic Returns

    https://www.brownells.com/optics-mounting/scopes/rifle-scopes/retro-4x-carry-handle-scope-prod124965.aspx Japan Optics Co (formerly Hakko Japan) has cataloged this scope for years but there was a minimum (of 50 I think) order to import them. Fully warranted, not made in China. My XM needs...

    Rigid R61 Vaquero boot knife?

    There was a Vaquero and an Amigo, both daggers if I recall. It's a knife I've been trying to find for a while. Anyone have one to show off? Is it a decent knife at all?

    Model 60 Stainless +p rated?

    I have access to a model 60 S&W in stainless steel. R174xxx (1977 I think) Can I shoot +p out of this for a comparison shoot? I want to shoot this side by side with a few other snubs.

    FBI/ Chicago 38 +p load hard to find locally

    Good old lead 158gr SWCHP at +p. Federal, Remington and Winchester all still make it, Federal is the least expansive but no one in my neck of the woods has it in stock I really don't want to pay 13 bucks to ship a box or two to my door. So if anyone in CO has seen the 158gr LSWCHP +p in a...

    Colt Cobra first shots...

    I shot consistently high today, just off hand no bracing. 158gr Winchester LRN, 158gr Fiocchi JHP It has been a while since I shot a DA revolver. My initial targets were awful. For a 38, the flatter trigger I felt like I was 'reaching for'.. that 1/4 inch of longer frame makes a huge...

    Anyone like SKB Shotguns?

    http://www.jgsales.com/skb-xl-semi-auto-shotgun,-12ga,-2.75-chamber,-20-barrel,-black,-vg,-used.-p-101671.html I know ZERO about them but that is a mighty fine price for an auto.

    Accuracy Mini 30 vs Mini 14

    Hey this is a dumb question but.. are Mini 30's any better accuracy wise than Mini 14's? This has come up in ban states time and time again on another forum. If you have both can you chime in?

    Expensive AR's, Low round count failures

    On the flip side of poverty if you bought or built a high end rifle from quality parts have you had parts breakage before you expected it? Or failures in a match or class that could not be quickly rectified? What was your round count and what broke? Please only reply with FIRST HAND...

    Cheap AR builds, high round count.

    This keeps coming up at various forums. If you built a cheap AR what was your round count before parts breakage? And what broke? Did you get it up and running quickly? Please only reply if you have FIRST HAND knowledge and ran the guns reasonably hard. This keeps coming up in discussions...
