    Rifle Scopes Leupold Gold Ring HD or Steiner Predator C5?

    Re: Leupold Gold Ring HD or Steiner Predator C5? I have looked through both at the "store". I don't like basing my purchase on the ten seconds I spend looking at a mounted cougar across the sales floor. I was just wondering if anybody who owns these models could chime in on what they have...

    Suppressors Who'd a Thought You Couldn't find J-Frames?

    It seems that everytime I decide I want something, I can't find it and if i'm not looking for something, I see them all over. I decided to pick up another J frame recently after selling one years ago. Think I could find one locally? OK...I can somewhat understand the run on black guns, but S&W...

    Gunsmithing Badger M5 Screw Problem

    I purchased a new Badger M5 from another member who never installed it. I noticed when I tried to mount it that the rear torx bolt was way too long (2"). The front one fits fine. I am fairly confident that these were the ones that originally came from Badger. Could it be just a mix up or am I...

    Finally Got A Garand

    Re: Finally Got A Garand My dad gave me his bayonet that is pictured with the rifle when I was a kid, and I have waited for 25 years to finally get a rifle to mount it on. I am interested in getting a correct WWII era sling for it. Does anyone know if those would have been the green canvas...

    Finally Got A Garand

    For years I have been kicking around the idea of buying a Garand, but kept putting it off. A relative passed away recently who had an extensive gun collection(quite a story in itself...more on that on a later date) I was given an oppourtunity to pick two of the guns for next to nothing. Out of...
