    Sidearms & Scatterguns M14 Bayonet Restoration

    My son inherited a Korean war era M1 Garand Bayonet from his Grandfather. Overall it's in pretty good shape except for some rust.

    Suppressors 357/38 ammo

    I went to the gun store today intending to buy an S&W Model 642 for deep carry. Instead I spent 2X more on an S&W Model 340PD . I'm just glad I don't have to defend these decisions to anyone anymore. Does anyone here have a recommendation for 357 and 38 ammo for this little guy? Since it can...

I'm hesitant to just start...

    Hunting & Fishing MT prarie dog shooting

    Does anyone know of any public land in MT that has decent PD hunting/shooting? I'd like to head over that way if I could find somewhere to go. Don't feel like hiring a guide to shoot PDs. Thanks

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Razor HD 20-60x85 Spotting Scope

    I'm curious if anyone has purchased this spotting scope yet? It looks like it should compare to the Kowa 883 or 773 scopes. I have been trying to find a new spotter and so far nothing I've tried has wowed me over. I have tried the Bushnell 15-45x60, Bushnell 20-60x80, and Nikon 25-75x82. The...
