Re: Looking for some 4" 1911 advise I've been carrying a Kimber CDP II for several years now, Love the gun. It has never let me down and has needed only a recoil spring and standard maintenance. Kimber however in my opinion has lousy customer service. All in all, both quality guns, get the...

Re: 1903A3 ADVICE You can do what I did, find a 1903 that was modified for a scope already (for hunting purposes or??). Plenty of these were modified for hunting use in earlier years when these rifles were plentiful. Many of us like to keep them in thier original military configuration for...

Re: Refinishing a barreled action? Hey Cali, I have done a few bolt guns with KG and I have the barreled action complete ready to go (No scope mount)then I coat it. As long as you do it right (Dont cake the coating on) it should not affect those tolerances. I do plug the muzzle and chamber...

Re: Another dumb cerakote question Well, I have not used Cerakote on any non-metal surfaces. I have used KG on rifle stocks and some plastics with good results. What I do is instead of baking at the high temp and taking the chance of melting, I reduce the temp and bake it longer. I am not...

Re: which paint ? Have to look at what you really want, weight your options: Krylon-Cheap, easy to find, touch up in a snap without baking, will wear much easier than KG, will be subject to chemicals (Hoppes) unlike KG. Can be applied right in the field. Not rust/oxidation resistant as good...

Re: Never been more PO'ed in my life!!!! I need help! War dog, Yep this 100% sucks, I am LE AND a FFL dealer in Ohio and I figured cops probably wouldn't touch this. You are taking steps to help protect others (BBB)which I thank you. I think too that maybe a call to FN is in order, maybe you...
