I'm getting ready to have my FAL cut down to a more manageable length. I'm thinking of 16.25", but have concerns about reliability. Should I be worried?

Lately I have been looking at P2000s. I had been thinking that I wanted one in V3 (DA/SA w/decock) but today I looked at one that was V2 (LEM trigger). My question is for those who have shot both. How do thay compare. Also, is the DA in V3 as bad as the DA in a USP? Thanks. Cal

Thought ya'll might find this interesting. http://www.charlotte.com/mld/charlotte/news/16656791.htm

I am looking at the Knoxx Copstocks and Special ops stocks. Can anyone give me some info as to the LOP of the Copstock? What about the OAL of both, with the Specialops stock all the way closed. If anyone has both, I would love to see a side by side comparison. This is for a 590 by the way...

night sights or a tac light? Which do you prefer? Cal

Quick one here. Do HP bullets expand during flight or when they hit? Simple enough? Thanks, Cal

I've got a little project I'm working on. Taking a Mossy 500A and turning it into an "Uber Tactical Ultimate Riot Mutant-Zombie-Bear SHTF" shotgun. Just a little something to play with. The weapon came with the standard 28" barrel and 5 shot mag tube. I am changing those to a 20" 590 barrel...

Mods: If this is not in the right forum, please move to correct place. Thx. Saw this story on the website of the Charlotte Observer, Charlotte NC. www.charlotte.com I say good shoot, just too bad that the kid had to do it. Man attacks wife; son shoots him, police say KYTJA WEIR...

Is it safe to carry a revolver with a hammer mounted firing pin with all chambers loaded? Or should you carry on an empty one. No transfer bar. Pinned and recessed. Hammer mounted FP. What to do? Thanks. Calhoun

My daily CCW is a P9. I had total faith in this till last Friday. Every mag I shot had at least 1 FTE. The brass would get stuck in the top of the ejection port. The primer end would hang in the notch where the breach face locks into the slide and the front of the brass would be stuck...

Well, I guess that the subject says it all. For my next gun I am looking at either a CZ P01 or a Sig, probably either a P220, P226, or a SigPro. Prices are roughly the same (within $50-60). I would prefer something with a rail. It's not mandatory though. What do you think, ladies and...

I just picked up a "gently" used Mossberg 500A last weekend. Nice wood furniture, 28" modified choke bbl. Under $200 out the door. It's going to be used for home defense (with a different bbl) and learning skeet and trap. Anyone around the Charlotte NC area know a good place to learn to...

I've got a FAL kit that I need a barrel for and a smith that can install/headspace/test the same. I've looked at the DSA website and am thinking about using them. Anybody got a good recomendation other than DSA? I would prefer to get a barrel with the gas block already installed and have the...

I got the call on Monday from the sheriff to pick up my CHP. Been waiting on it since March. Proud to say that I have yet to go to Wal-Mart. (Seems I already have all the ammo I need right now, and why else would I go.) That same day I sold my CETME to a co-worker, and got my EMT...

El Rojo's thread on the Norinco 1911 got me thinking. My local shop has a used one for sale. Are Norincos worth it, or is it just a collection of problems in the shape of a 1911? Just so you know, I don't have any experience owning a 1911. I think I want one just to play with though. Am I...

Picked up my first revolver the other day. A Taurus Model 65 with a nickel finish. Beautiful finish, locks up tight, looks like it was just made. Checked out the serial number on the Taurus website and looks like it was made in '89. The only thing I have been able to find that might be wrong...

Anyone know anything about a military version of a Mossy 500 (NOT the 590A1). Apparently it has an 18" heavy bbl, as opposed to the 20" heavy bbl on the 590A1. Saw one used in a shop last night, fairly good price. Know anything about them? Thanks in advance. Calhoun
