    Sidearms & Scatterguns Best "CHEAP" 1911?

    I would personally spend a little more money on the sti or SA. If going to maybe eventually have the gun sent off and have rebuilt start with a decent frame and slide that will come with the two mentioned. Probably have almost as much in the gunsmith tightening the slide and frame on a RIA as...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 grips - need recommendation

    I would go VZ. I got the gatorbacks and they grip well but aren't going to make your hands bleed.

    F T/R Competition Stiller or Defiance

    I just ordered a deviant. I handled one at shot show last year and it was very smooth so I had no second guesses. Have not handled a stiller so can not compare.

    Screw all you beer snobs

    I am on an oatmeal stout kick right now. None of my friends will drink dark beer but one, so at least I know when I buy beer it isn't going to get drank if i leave the house for awhile. My friends drink Miller, bud light and natural light. Guess they can still use the broke college kid excuse...

    Hawk Hill Custom barrels?

    Thanks for all the replies guys. I may give a hawk hill a shot (no pun intended). Seems the people who have used them like them pretty well.

    Hawk Hill Custom barrels?

    It's not that I don't want to wait for quality, it's I cant wait. From being in school I have to do three barreled actions next semester. Some companies work with the school and give us a small discount. I would like to support these companies for doing this for us as well as save some cash...

    I am in the process of figuring out which barrels I want for a couple rifles I am going to be building. I am going to go with one krieger if I can get it in time but that isn't looking likely. I have read a little about hawk hill customs barrels and haven't read anything bad. I was just...

    Help selecting new car

    VW TDI is great on fuel. A guy I know has one and got 57 mpg on a 3.5 hour trip. He was running on biodiesel at the time which I don't know how much that effects mpg but even it it added 5 mpg it would still be impressive getting 52. As for sporty you can get bigger injectors, turbo and all that...

    Do you build or assemble rifles?

    My problem is back home in WV you have all these guys that say they "build" guns. Well in reality they are just putting a lower parts kit into an AR receiver and going around telling everyone they build guns. This drives my nuts. An AR is a lego gun to me. Anyone can build one and make it shoot...

    Gunsmithing Who's your tooling supplier

    I have used MSC and ENCO. I would lean toward MSC just because I had a order with ENCO canceled because the shipping and billing address were different. After waiting over a week I called and talked to some lay in CS that was not very pleasant. I ended up having to go through and reorder...

    EVIL LITTLE BLACK RIFLE.......psssstt

    Glad you posted this. I had just decided to build a 300 blackout as a "truck gun". Hadn't read to much up on it but this makes it easier to stick with my decision.

    Maggie’s Why they put fences around grizzly bears at the zoo

    If they do save the idiot that jumped in the bear cage they should at least cut his balls off so he can't reproduce and raise a kid as dumb or dumber than him.

    Toby Keith's older stuff is good. I don't like much of his last couple albums.
