    I saw the new Frankford arsenal press in the wild

    Saw the new one today…pretty neat. Dunno if I’m a fan or not… Edit: that counter/display it’s mounted to is about chest height on me,& I’m about 6’. Just to put the size in perspective. It is still big however.

    First 7PRC I’ve seen in the Wild

    And it’s a “go wild”. Probably not a bad rifle.

    I’m deciding a new rifle caliber… any thoughts?

    My deer rifle is torn down, getting “remodeled” so my daughter will be able to shoot it/hunt with it when she’s older. So, I’ve saved my pennies, and I’m after a rifle. I’m also working on another”Big Bang” build, so this one will be just my hunting rifle. Mostly deer, with the possibility of...

    Any thoughts on the 8.6 BLK?

    Fax on/Q has a new cartridge, and I find it intriguing. I’ve been following the discussion on the controlled 80,000 psi sig fury cartridge here (I find that intriguing as well) but I’d like to hear other peoples thoughts on this other BLK. The 300 definitely has made its mark. I find the 1:3...

    Father passed away and giving me his guns. Need advice for novice!

    So as the subject says, my father unfortunately passed away recently, and he was a long time gun enthusiast. As per his wish, he wanted me to inherit his guns. Problem is, I've only gone to the range twice, and don't know anything really about guns, nor do I have a wild interest in owning many...

But seriously I’m a newbie or dare I say a 22lr’e ( I only say that because everything I...

    Hello all, I am new to the forum and thought I would take the time to share some pics of a Tokarev I recently built. It Started out as a TT-C Romanian, lots of work went into jeweling the trigger, hammer, barrel hood, and bushing. I put in a norinco chrome lined barrel and cut new dovetails...

    New female CCW shooter

    Recently a friend of mine asked me for advice on buying a handgun for concealed carry and concealed carry in general. She has limited experience with pistol shooting in the Army (and by "limited" I mean she got a 30min class and then shot a qualification once) but aside from that she is a new...
