How's things at the landfill??? I know those teens are trash, and that's where they belong, in a trash dump. The sad part of the story is that the teens weren't satisfied with just taking the money, they had to beat the tar out of him as well. Here is a classic situation where carrying a gun would ...

Ruger's in general are best not dry fired excessively. The firing pin stop pin can get damaged from repeated striking of the firing pin. Once that happens the firing pin can strike the chamber mouth distorting it and causing feeding problems. A little dry firing is all right but inspect the stop pi...

Maye that is why I liked the 22/45's, grip angle and mag release like a real gun a 1911. Never cared for the mag release on the bottom of the handle and that Luger angle always points too high for me. Have the same problem with my JCHiggins model 80, always wants to point too high. Roger on that, L...

Rebluing a Beretta Bobcat
Rebluing a Beretta Bobcat Having nothing better to do and getting tired of fooling around with the PC, my eyes fell on my old Beretta Bobcat .22 as I was rummaging around. I would like to reblue it- "blacken" really should be the word for it. Now, my only experience in rebluing was when I tried to ...

I also look at it with regard to what ammo is readily available in your area. Around my area (Mid Ga.) .30+ is more popular, so .300, .308, .30-06 etc. is available everywhere, especially surplus if that's your bag. .270 is gaining, but not there yet. It's a bit harder to find, not rare but not eve...

the comments about a Pistol/Revolver are points to consider, the version I read explicitly mentioned a 20-gauge Shotgun. http://blogs.USAToday.com/ondeadline/2009/01/cops-angry-4-ye.html You're right: Turns out it was a 20-ga shotgun, after all. But still- one might say increduluously, "4 yr old, f...

PRE-WW2 WINCHESTER MDL 12
PRE-WW2 WINCHESTER MDL 12 My son-in-law just inherited an old Winchester Model 12. He is not in to guns, so I can foresee it becoming a not unwelcome gift to me. It's in good condition though the stock will need replacement- the heel had been badly grawed by rats. I doubt if a 'smith aside from giv...
