    Azula pocket holster

    After sending back the DeSantis Nemesis for my 442 which I found too bulky, I took a shot at the Azula rough out. I’m extremely satisfied. Fits my pockets perfectly…not too much extra wing…smooth leather inside for an easy draw…nice and thin. For only $33 on eBay and free shipping it’s a...

    Beretta .25 auto help

    I was given a magazine marked PB .25 Made in Italy. I thought it would fit my 950 Jetfire but it doesn’t fit in the well. I assume the only other gun this can be for is the 21a. Am I correct? My 950 mag is actually marked 6.35mm.

    Red dot revolver

    Not a fan of red dots on my carry guns but this looks like it could be a fun shooter. Nice looking revolver too. Taurus Defender 856 T.O.R.O.

    9mm lever?

    I would never want one but I guess they see the writing on the wall with mag fed semi autos under attack. But a classic old west style 38/357 is still on my wish list. I would even consider a 9mm version :)

    Excellent gun rag from down under

    My library carries the digital version. Pretty good reading if you can find it. A lot more crammed between the covers than my American Handgunner and Guns subscriptions.

    Laser bore sighter

    Picked this up on Amazon from Strongtools. Lots of different ones and hard to trust reviews but I figured one that runs on a CR2 battery (and they give you a spare) instead of buttons would be better. Nice case. Well packaged. Worked like a charm on my Mark 1V with red dot and my scoped Marlin 70.

    Mark 1V update

    After some input from members here I decided on a 3 MOA Burris Fastfire 111. Got a super deal at under $150. Nice crisp dot. I also like the shade hood for target shooting in the sun. Rail is a Tandemkross. Grabbing a bore sighter off Amazon to get things started.

    Ruger Mark 1V upgrade

    Picked up a Tandemkross rail this week. Nicer than the Ruger rail as it doesn’t hang over the barrel. Wanted to try my cheap Red dot on it. I’ll probably upgrade to a reflex or maybe a better tube style like an ultra dot. If you got any suggestions with pics, feel free. I’m leaning towards...

    New grips on my 22/45

    What do you guys think? Never been a fan of loud colored grips on my handguns but I feel this 22 is perfect for a pair of Zombie colored grips. And they feel way better than the garbage plastic that came on it. I also have OD green Ridgeback Loks on my HiPower. Again, way better than the...

    New Ruger Mark lV

    Gets out of jail next week. Thinking of putting on a fiber optic front sight. Most likely green. Maybe a Hi Viz. There are quite a few choices so any other suggestions welcome.

    Model 70 or 60?

    I know the Marlin 60 is one of the most popular 22 autos ever but I just acquired a 70 and I have to say, I enjoy the mag fed version a bit more than the tube even though it only holds 10. Maybe it’s because it gives me a break from tube feeding my 66.

    Great in depth article on 1894

    May2022 of Firearms News has an amazing in depth article on the history of levers. Check it out if you can. My library carried it so I got it on my libby library app on my iPad.

    Spotting scope help

    Never had one and binoculars ain’t cutting it anymore. Any recommendations that won’t break the bank. 200 yards is about the max needed.

    New 22 magnum in stable

    Up till now my only 22s have been standard long rifles except for my Single six which has a magnum cylinder. So I’m a bit excited to add this 77 to my stable. Taking the kids out with it this weekend. Should be fun shooting out a bit farther. It will also be my only scoped 22 rifle since I...

    P322 on the way but…

    ….Since I live in the Canada of America a threaded barrel is a no no so the shop said they will pin the barrel. I did some YouTube surfing and it looks like they drill, pin the threads through the cap then spot weld the pin. I hope it’s done well. But it doesn’t seem like too tough a job.

    I never knew….

    Why is it called a magazine? Magazine comes from an Arabic word meaning 'storeroom,' so the usage of the word to refer to a place where bullets are held for a gun or where ammunition is kept in a battleship makes complete sense.

    Any AR 22 fans here?

    I took the boys rimfire shooting with my 39A, Nylon 66 and a few revolvers. We tried a neighbor’s AR style and of course the boys loved it. Now they dont even care much for my 223 AR. Which is fine with me with ammo prices as they are. :)
