    Why is a Savage 99EG worth so much more than a 99E?

    I'm not complaining--mine is a early .300-Savage EG model (built in late 1936-early 1937, according to the serial number calculator at Savage Shooters). I'd never sell it, but I was killing time and decided to see what they were going for and I noticed that the EG models were selling for around...

    Shot an incredible pistol yesterday

    I went to an open house at my local range yesterday and tried out one of the nicest guns I've ever shot: a Gen 2 Sig 229 SAS in .40 cal. It was the first I've seen (or even heard of) the new Gen 2 versions. They've replaced the DAK trigger with the short-reset trigger, which is a huge...

    Best full-sized 1911 9mm?

    I'm thinking about picking up a full-sized 1911 in 9mm, now that Wilson is making quality magazines for that platform. What experiences have folks in this forum had with various makes and models?

    Cor-Bon's Pow'R Ball in .380 ACP

    Cor-Bon's Pow'R Ball ammo seems like the ideal defensive round in a .380. It has the penetration of FMJ and the expansion of a good hollow point. It seems like it would help compensate for the relatively weak .380 ACP round. Anyone tried it in a Kel-Tec or a LCP?

    Anyone have a CZ VZ 58?

    The CZ VZ 58 looks like a nice gun with typical CZ build quality, but I've never seen one in the flesh. I couldn't find a single post about them in Rifle Country though. Does anyone own one? If so, has it been as good as other CZ rifles?

    A Declaration of War on the Constitution

    Looks like President Bush is getting ready to declare himself dictator. This really is a declaration of war against the Constitution (http://progressive.org/mag_wx051807):

    Benelli Chokes

    I patterned my SBE II this weekend and discovered that it had a halo-like pattern with every choke. It was worse with 3 inch shells than 2-3/4, and it was worse with steel shot than lead shot, but it was a problem with all the chokes. Depending on load and shot, I'd get between 10 and 15 pellets...

    Another anti-Second Amendment columnist who doesn't get it

    Howard Fineman from Newsweek: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18161645/site/newsweek/ We should give this a good read to see where the anti movement is heading. Judging from Fineman's slavish devotion to mythos over logos, their arguments will be so lacking in logic that they will be easy to destroy.

    Obama Desecrates Constitution

    From thehill.com: In other words, Obama supported a township's blatant disregard for the Constitution (nothing unequivocal or ambiguous about a local ordinance prohibiting private gun ownership). This is as much an act of unconstitutional tyranny as a township banning all printed material or...

    Slim autoloader for a 5.11 vest

    I just bought a 5.11 vest and found that my Glock 26 is a bit too thick to wear comfortably in the hidden holster pocket. My Bersa .380 Thunder works well. I'm okay with carrying the Bersa. I've owned the gun for years, have run thousands of rounds through it, and am comfortable with my ability...

    Please tell me a bit about Fred Thompson

    Fred Thompson looks to be a viable candidate. I believe that if he runs he could wipe the floor with Romni, Giuliani, and McCain in the primaries, and I think he'd whoop Clinton or Obama in the general election. But I don't really know where he stands on the issues. Right now there are three...

    Who is Pat Wray...

    ...and what exactly does he think is foolish about defending our Second Amendment rights? From the Washington Post:

    For those who like Dr. Ron Paul but don't think he can be elected...

    ...put your money and/or time where your mouth is and make it happen. I emailed Dr. Paul's exporatory campaign and volunteered to help with any effort in my region. If we worked together on this, we might avoid a choice between Johnudi McGulliani Hillarack Clintabama.

    If the choice was between a pro-gun Democrat and an anti-gun Republican...

    Who would you vote for? If the Dems ran someone with a strong history of voting for gun rights and the Repubs ran someone like McCain or Gulianni, with a record of voting against gun rights, what would you do? Would you vote Dem, even if you never had before? Would you vote Repub and hope...

    Three-point sling for PLR-16

    Has anyone tried adopting an M4-style 3-point sling to a PLR-16? If this worked, I might make the PLR my carry gun. :evil:

    1911 9mm aftermarket mags

    I've held off on buying a 9mm 1911 because very few aftermarket makers seem to offer 9mm magazines for 1911s. My worry was that if a magazine should become problematic, or just suck from the get go, I'd end up spending too much money trying to get different mags, or worse yet, I'd be stuck...

    Beretta 303 20-gauge

    I have a chance to pick up a Beretta 303 20-gauge, English stock, exceptionally nice furniture (the nicest I've seen), better-than-new condition with all boxes and paperwork, for $500. I'm tempted. Anyone have much experience with this gun?
