I purchased a Sig Mosquito to have an easy to shoot autoloader for my family. Purchased a 525 box of remington golden bullets .22lr to shoot. Never used those before I disassembled/cleaned it and was excited to try it out. Right off, I was getting ~40% light strikes that fired on the...

The current buying hysteria got me thinking of the economics of producing AR's and mags. I read somewhere that the "guestimate" of total magazines of all types in US is in the hundreds of millions, and that there are 4-5 million semi-automatic AR type rifles here as well. Does anyone know...

I've been using walmart white box .40 target ammo. I got a heavier spring for my G23 and now it's short cycling with the target ammo. My corbon carry ammo works fine, but I need something cheaper to shoot that's hotter than the winchester target ammo.

What is the law on handguns and motorcycles? Is it the same as for cars or different? If you have a handgun in your luggage on a motorcycle is that the same as having it in the trunk of your car? Does this vary greatly by state? Thanks.

Why do the G19/G23/G32 all use a stock 18# recoil spring? It this just to provide reliable function with really weak .40/.357 ammo? It's time for a new spring in my G23, I was going to get a 20#. Do you G32 owners prefer 20# or 22#? I think I might get a .357 barrel also. How is the...

I have a K9, which is great for what I use it for, but I'd like a similar sized single action or double action 9mm auto. The K9 is so thin, are there any other small autos out that can compare? I had a Firestar plus for a while. Is was a good pistol, but the workmanship wasn't as good as my...

I like my 92 fs, but want a lighter single action pull. Double action is fine. I notice (it has laser grips) that single action dry firing will pull the laser dot straight down about 8 inches at 20 yards. If I squeeze slowly and gently I can eliminate this, but anytime I pick up the pace it...

I have a Mossberg 500 pump with pistol grip forend and pistol grip. I like to shoot it with my fore-end arm locked straight out up high, so it takes most of the recoil. It's easier to aim this way for me. And no, I'm not trying to re-ignite the locked "do pistol grips suck thread". Does...

I was shooting a mag of corbon 135's out of my G23, two handed, firm grip, when halfway through, the trigger didn't reset after a new round chambered. I have a 3.5 rocket connector and haven't had any problems with functioning before this. If I am correct, an improperly installed 3.5 rocket...

I'm just curious, were older magazines grandfathered in, or did they just say after date X, if you have a mag that doesn't meet these guidelines, then you are a criminal?

I inherited an old charter arms .38 undercover in nearly unused condition and I've found I like carrying it because it conceals so well. I've always considered .38 as marginal for self defense, so can anyone recommend decent .38 ammo? I don't think it would hold up to +p ammo, although I would...

Which grip is wider/longer front to back? 92fs or P226? I have a 92fs, but no P226 to compare with.

In Florida, we have concealed weapons permits. This means we can carry various weapons, including knives, with few restrictions. Many people carry both a gun and a knife. A large number of states have reciprocity with Florida. But is this only for handguns, or does it include weapons...

I just cringe when I ask the Wal-mart gun counter people anything gun-related. I got some good, cheap white box 9mm/.40 target ammo. What about 12 gauge ammo? Slugs? Buckshot? Not re-loading related, but ammo-related :)

I'm looking for a plain soft rifle case that doesn't scream GUN! to everyone who sees it. You know what I am talking about, rows of mag pouches on the side, camo print, and a narrow end. Anyone sell something plain?

I was talking to a northern relative who was aghast that the "govt" didn't know what guns Floridians have. Yeah I know it's the first step to confiscation, but in Fl we don't have it(hopefully never will) and I'm just curious. Are there any LEO's here who can say from experience that it...

I was comparing some .38 ammo I have to 9mm. Can someone explain why the .38 round is so much longer than 9mm for a milder round? Was .38 downloaded after it was created, but they kept the longer case? When I shake the .38 round I can hear the powder grains in the case, like its got lots of...

I had a PM-11 and was pretty happy with it as a fun toy. Low price and light, short trigger were a plus. I sold it to get another pistol because at the time you couldn't put a front grip on it. I was thinking about getting a CM-11 carbine as another cheap plinker when the AWB dies. I'd...

What is the difference between a tube red dot sight and a single lens red dot sight? I have a had a $110 millet red dot for years and it's been great. Why do you need a tube? I was playing around with several models of ATN reflex sights at a gun show, and they looked pretty neat, said...

I've never shot beyond 100 yds at the range, and I hear everyone talking about the precision needed to shoot at 1000 yds. At what range does the skill of the shooter really come into play? I have little experience shooting, but I found it easy to keep my groups under 12" with an AK at 100...
