    Midway USA reviews

    I was looking for the Midway USA website and came across hundreds and hundreds of negative one star reviews. This was on multiple review sites. I think there is something amiss because I have been ordering from them for 25 or more years and have not had a problem, not once. Looks like they...

    686-4 8" barrel price

    One of my co-workers has a 686-4 8" barrel to sell. It is in very nice shape, gun only, no box etc. Worth $650.00? Also, is the 8" a more rare 686-4? Anyone know how many were made? I bought his 686-4 6" for $500 a couple of weeks ago. Is the 8" worth and additional buck and a half? Thanks...

    PC .44 Magnum Hunter optics replacement

    Picked up my PC .44 Magnum Hunter a few weeks ago and was not pleased with the optic that came with the gun. So, I mounted up a old school aimpoint and sighted it in. Shot good enough on paper, at least MOA of deer but the thing was so heavy it was a handful to try to shoot one handed. I knew...

    For Benchmade Knife fans.

    I was at my local LGS today and was poking around a little. Looked in the Benchmade Knife display and saw theses two beauties among many others. They are both Mini-Rukus automatics. They have been in lockup for many years so I asked to look at them. Took 20 minutes to find the keys, but when...

    29-2...what's it worth?

    Kind of a subjective question I know. Local pawn shop has a blue 29-2 6" (6.5?) in nice shape. The grips are dark like they have had too much oil over the years. Blue is very nice, slight loss of blueing at the muzzle from holstering. No box, just the gun. General consensus, what is it worth...

    Well, I think I bought a "pig in a poke"

    Picked up a S&W PC .460 last week. Found that I need a three hole rail to go on top of the milled in rail that is on top of the barrel. That extra rail did not come with the gun (used). Called S&W to buy the rail and was told that they do not have the rails anymore. He ask for the serial number...

    Brought Home My New GP100 .44 Special- WOW (Back to Ruger-AGAIN)

    Wow is right. My dealer called and told me that my new GP100 was in so I ran over there at lunchtime and took possession. Got home that evening and began to admire my newest purchase. Got to the front sight and low and behold, it is not even close to being installed right. There is a large gap...
