Hello all, I recently bought a TS12 shotgun, and for some reason, the top picatinny rail front/back is shaped in a way that doesn't allow slide-on sights and index clips to be installed. Since I was unable to get said gear on, I had my buddy eventually force them on, which caused shaving of...

Hi all! I'm looking for a laser/flashlight combo for a rifle that takes AA batteries, but I can't seem to find anything. I did see EOTech used to make one called the WL1 AA, but it's been discontinued. Does anyone know of anything similar to this that I can still buy? Google is being no help at...

Not new to firearms or pistols, however this will be the first one that I have owned after recently being approved for an unrestricted pistol permit. I am hoping to find something that's practical for concealment, yet isn't compromised in it's shooting ability by it's size (I want to be able to...

Hello, so I've bought a factory-new Uberti 1873 Carbine with a 19" barrel in .357 Magnum about a month ago, and I am sad to say, I'm less than happy with it. I've done extensive research on the internet before I decided to go for this gun, which showed basically universal agreement that the...

Hey y'all, I picked up an old rolling block today and need help identifying it. The rifle is cosmetically pretty worn and not the prettiest, but the bore is nice and shiny so I want to shoot it. It has only 2 barrel bands and they are spring captive. There is a crown proof with "RV" below it...

Hi all, I did some testing a couple weeks ago and I have been going back on forth of what load to go with. I have been developing a load for 2 different ar's with the main goal of self defense secondary accuracy out to 400-600 yards. With that said here is some of the data. Nosler 60 gr...

Hey THR, I'm newer to reloading and started with 9mm due to the shortage going on and just have a quick question for yall. I just finished a set of 50 using mixed once fired brass (ofb), cci sp primers, hornady 115g rn bullets, and CFE pistol powder (about 5.02 grains per load) COL 1.14". I...

Hello friends, I have a challenge for you. My FIL has a box of older rifles/shotguns that he let me take a look at, he wants to know if he has anything unique. I was able to identify the model numbers on all but one, and price (tentatively) most of them, but i was hoping the scholars and...

To all that replied to my earlier post, thank you so much. I’ve received excellent advice, and I am so glad that I posted here before purchasing anything. To recap, I shoot USPSA and 3 Gun, and I’m looking to load bulk 9mm now and add on .223 in the future. Per advice from the previous thread...

I have five gallons of 9mm range brass that is full of sand and absolutely filthy. Wet tumbling with pins is the only option to get the mud out of the inside of the cases. Should I: 1.) Wet tumble with pins then decap on my 750 during loading? (Potentially getting sand in my press from...

Hello friends, I hope you're all having a great day and all staying safe. I was hoping to tap into the collective knowledge of you all to help solve a predicament in which I find myself stuck. My father had an old stevens 124A cross bolt shotgun that was broken in two from the day he got it...

I shoot USPSA and 3-gun matches religiously, and I’m looking to reload bulk 9mm and then add in .223 sometime in the future. I plan to deprime with a Frankford arsenal hand de primer, wet tumble with stainless pins, then load in the Dillion 550. I have access to everything I need to pour and...

So I'm new to building ARs. My coworkers and boyfriend talked me into building one. I just bought the Juggernaut Tactical almost complete lower. Would a Aero Precision M4E1 complete upper work well with this lower? Also what would be a good lower kit to get?

Hello! I recently purchased a firearm, and during the paperwork I entered the city I lived in right after I was born, Gaithersburg Md.I later checked my birth certificate and discovered I was actually born at the Rockville Md hospital. How should I proceed about correcting this? Is this a...

Let me preface this post by saying this: I have an AKM pattern rifle chambered in 7.62x39. I understand that 300 Blackout is easier to reload and easier to suppress. And while I do reload, I do not have a suppressor (yet. Someday...). I've been thinking about getting a 300 Blackout upper for...

I have a brand new in the box, never been fired Uberti 1851 Colt Navy London model. It is a beautiful gun and feels wonderful in my hand, but I cannot remove the barrel to prepare it for firing. This is a gun that I recently purchased from Midway USA. I can remove the wedge without any...

Does anybody have a bullet mold for the .38 Smith & Wesson cartridge, .361 diameter and 145 grain ? I have a nice old Smith pre-Victory (1941) I would like to reload for and the reasonably priced correct bullets are Brinell Hardness 12 or better. Buffalo Bore has soft lead but they want as...

1st shotgun: When I was a kid, my grandpa's friend kept a single shot 410 shotgun at my grandpa's cabin. I shot it once, and it was really nice. I cannot for the life of me remember the brand/model of the gun. Here is what I remember about it: It was a hammerless break action of course, but...
