I built an AR based on Anderson receivers that were given to me as Christmas and birthday presents (Christmas and birthday are days apart). I didn't build using all premium parts but the trigger and barrel were improvements. CMC single stage trigger and Shilen heavy SS barrel. Also a free...

Bought a Model 60 round butt for the wife long ago and she has never liked it. Even with light loads. In her defense, she is little! 5 foot, 100 lbs. shoots a Ruger Lcp and MK 2 easily but I would like for her to use the 38 for, just in case. Any grips out there which would help. We have tried...

Self taught. Introduced to long guns at an early age but did not shoot a pistol until mid 20's. Now own several and am a fairly good shot. Have 3 revolvers and 3 semi's and would not hesitate to use any of them on whatever needed dead!

Just looked through an old Speer#10 load book and it had loads for several calibers from 38 spec thru 45 colt. But I see a lot of it has already been mentioned. And, Sorry about yer bad luck.

I live in a relatively safe, small town but just a short drive to Houston. Every once in a while the Yahoos from that area decide our little burg would be a good place to cause mayhem. For those guys I have pistols and a couple shotguns strategically placed in the downstairs area. All can be...

I too, can navigate in my house without turning on any lights. Even going down the stairs. Lived here 30+ yrs and know every inch of it. Besides, Do you realize how much the little LED lights, that seem to be on just about every electrically powered gadget in the house, Helps to navigate...

I don't have a dog in this fight as I lost mine in a tragic boating accident. But my son is gonna wait it out. A decision he made to remove the brace and wait it out due to recent Scotus decisions on ATF over reach.

"Just keep in mind that between parts and tools, you'll likely spend more than a production gun would've cost. You could probably save costs, and some trouble, if you have a firm idea of what you want to build and plan it out ahead of time. Of course, with projects like these, saving money isn't...

There are military specs for the ar-15. Most aftermarket parts are made to military specs due to the wide market for them and should fit ARs from most manufacturers. For example: there are only a few receiver manufacturers who stamp them with logos and features for the different AR companies. If...

I took the CCW class a few years ago, also in Texas, and the things the instructor said were scary indeed. Not so much about the legal aspects of the CCW law but in the civil suits that can and have come about after a self defense shooting where the perp was shot. Whether deceased or not. The...

I am leaving SE Texas tomorrow morning, crossing Oklahoma and will end up NW of Denver, Co. for a few days R&R. I have no LTC in Texas and do not plan to CC in Colorado but I do want to have personal protection in the vehicle and rooms along the way. Is there anyone in OK and CO that can clue me...

I have used my 3 1/2" Gerber for over 25 years and the only person it has stabbed is me! I use it multiple times daily, from cutting my steaks and opening my beer when the little tab breaks off, to its being used on the job, homestead and most anyplace I may be. The "locking blade' is the...

I've known two people who were killed with a .22. One with a revolver. The other, with a rifle. I personally wouldn't want to get shot with even a .22, much less a 38 spec. and a lot of criminals seem to feel the same way. But then there the occasional crazy who will carry on with their mayhem...

Snow again! No photos but it has snowed here on the Texas coast twice this winter! Once earlier, in December when we got a couple inches, and again this past Tuesday where it melted immediately on hitting the ground, except for the stuff that stuck to the tarps that were covering the orange...

I realize , now, that by using the word Californica that I may have offended some people who live in that state. That was not my intention. It was only to display disgust at the current disregard for the personal rights given to us by our forefathers in the second amendment and what I see as a...

I have heard reports of that very situation already happening in Californica already. The gubmint already had the engine on and wheels rolling on Jan. 1

American made 22 lr revolver. Kinda limits my choices but! Leanin towards something < 5" barrel but will not discount any length @ this time. SA or DA doesn't really matter. Just something to shoot rats with (already have a Mark II target for a squirrel pistola ).

Huh? What did you say? Like a lot here, I can remember what happened 25-30 years ago, though it may not jibe with what others remember. But I sometime can't remember what was said or why I went to the garage or upstairs for 5 minutes ago. And life goes on!

Cheap seems to rule above all else with the masses. Why do you think China is the leading exporter in the world? they make everything from abacuses to toy zebras cheaper than anyone else in the world. Doesen't matter that it will not last very long, Little Johnny will have lost interest in it...
