Re: good news for tokarev owners

The 7.62x25 is one of my personal favorite calibers, but in my opinion, an 85gr. FMJ round being propelled at 1700fps is probably just as good as this "frangible" stuff. (1700fps being a handloaded...

Red14, how is
a mistake or bad thing in Osama's political career? Oops... I meant Obama...

BTW I know what you meant, it was just that the thread is about the BAD things he's done. :p

Re: Hilton Hotels Are Not Friendly To Guns

No one in my family, self included, advertises "We Have Guns Here." If a burglar ever feels so inclined, he/she can find out the hard way, but that's the only way anyone knows that were packing,...

Re: Obama Declares National Lesbian / Gay / Bisexual / Transgender Pride Month

I do not support or endorse homosexuality. Obama and his cronies (Liberals who call themselves "Americans") can celebrate gay this or that, heck they could celebrate the Devil's birthday (if he has...

Re: Obama legal??

I'd love to see Obama out of office, and also to see Kagan (or however you spell her name) removed from the Supreme Court. Fact of the matter is that if Obozo/Obama/ Osama/ whatever was gone, Biden...

Re: M91/30 Mosin Nagant

I also own a 91/30, and prefer S&B or Winchester ammunition. Corrosive Commie-MilSurp ammo, though cheap, just can't be as accurate or safe as, and will likely wear the gun more than, modern...

Re: Iver Johnson .32 Questions

The only way that one can get modern .32SW short black powder loads is to HANDLOAD them. Still, Bill is right, firing a 100+ year old gun is definitely not recommendable. (I personally enjoy...

Re: Iver Johnson .32 Questions

As far as the 1911 goes, it is impossible for that particular firearm to be 100yrs old, unless it is a prototype. 95 Years is possible, but would have seen use in WWI/ The Great War! Not too likely,...

Re: I want to buy a pistol when I turn 18 good choices

In many states, I have been led to believe that it is indeed legal to own a handgun at 18, provided that it is acquired from a third party, rather than an FFL dealer. Cali is probably stricter.

Re: Questions about Mosin 91/30 or m44?

With a long enough coat and a rifle sling, an M44 could possibly be concealed. Still, I would never endorse it as a CCW. =)

Re: NEED ADVICE FOR NON-SINGLE SHOT 22 FOR SHORT ARMED 11YR OLD

I'd say a Ruger 10-22 is a solid choice for a youth rifle. There are many options for customization, meaning that the stock could be changed out for something longer as she grows.

Re: What pump shotgun do you have ?

My brother uses a Mossberg 500, it seems to shoot fine, the action is smooth, but the recoil is a little... well, little isn't quite the right word, but that thing KICKS.

Re: Iver Johnson Death-gun identification.

Re: The Handgun From Hell!

Only worth it if you're filthy rich, or if the gun has a helluva lot of sentimental value. If I had the $, I'd pay that plus parts to fix up my uncle's I-J .32... for the latter of the two reasons.
