2-7x32 scope (Best bang for the buck) Don't know much about optics but the 2-7x32 aka so called "tweener" scope, has really caught my eye! I think it would be the perfect size and power for my Marlin 336. Right now the ones that have caught my attention are the Redfield Revolution & Nikon...

I purchased "2 KCI g19" and "2 KCI g17" magazines not too long ago for my Glock 19. The KCI G19 magazines have fed and fired flawlessly, BUT when using the KCI G17 mags, I am experiencing multiple stovepipes. (By stovepipe I mean shell casing stuck vertical in the ejection port of the...

I recently purchased a NIB PF-9 on 6-5-10 from a Firearm dealer in Jacksonville, Fl. Like any new gun purchase, I immediately gave it a thorough inspection and cleaning when I got home. Needless to say, after going to the range both yesterday and today I became oh so very disappointed with the...

So......I just finished watching a video doc on the "Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot". Never really knew the legalities of full auto firearms and am now really intrigued..... I know that since the "Firearms Owners' Protection Act of May 19, 1986", legally transferable machine guns have continued...

Can anyone confirm that a Mec-Gar S&W 59 series 15rd mag will reliably function in a Kel-Tec P-11? I've read from several sources that only FACTORY S&W 15rd mags should be trusted but a Mec-Gar is a factory mag in many cases..... I appreciate any help or info yall can give me with this!

One of the traits I really love about "Glock" is how almost all of their gun parts are proliferated to the point that they can be purchased from a number of stores. Other than the obvious 1911, What are some some other Makes & Models that have a vast number of "factory gun parts" available...

Prior to the 1980ish time period, I always wondered why the majority of American law enforcement adopted the revolver instead of the then current military M1911 service pistol........With that said; 1. What were the attributes of the "SERVICE REVOLVER" that made it more favorable to LE...

For those of you that don't know, Mec-Gar recently introduced their "OPTIMUM" line of "Anti-Friction Coating" 18rd & 20rd high cap mags for the Taurus PT92. I bought the 18rd OPTIMUM magazine a few months back and have been extremely satisfied with it. With that said, I decided to order the...

From what I've read on the "internet":) as well as here is that the .22lr can only feed reliably from a single stack magazine. If the magazine holds more than 10 rds it must also curve outward to ensure proper feeding. With that said are there any ongoing developments in the firearm industry...

Just did a complete field strip & cleaning on my Mossberg 702 Plinkster .22lr rifle and....:uhoh:.......well, the feed ramp looks a little worn to say the least. How did this happen to the feed ramp? I've put well over 6000 rounds through this rifle and it's ran like a champ the whole time...

I've been meaning to discuss this topic for a while, so here it goes..... One of the initial literature guides I used regarding 9mm defense ammunition came from the website http://www.chuckhawks.com/ammo_by_anonymous.htm. Under the 9mm section the website states the following in regard to...

I feel like I am asking a ridiculous question and it indeed might be, but since I know nill about scopes I gotta ask....Is it possible to use a (3-9x32) air-rifle scope on a 22lr rifle and it reliably hold up & be accurate at a least 3x? The gun in question is a el-cheapo Mossberg 702...

I finally realized I should purchase some SNAPCAPS so I can practice dry-firing my pistols. But after looking online I am somewhat bewildered between choosing one. With that said here are my questions; 1. Do you get what you pay for? (I notice some brands cost way more than others well like...
