    was just killing time at a local gun show, when I picked up a Rem .308 sps-tactical for $500. I thought is was a good price and had been really wanting a gun that could reach out to 500 yards or better (but I'm a poor college student). SPS-T .308 NCstar scope crappy base and rings Next...

    Suppressors Coastal Gun Inc. SRT suppressor

    Anyone have any input on this suppressor? Price is right at $350 but I have not heard from anyone actually shooting this can. It can be disassembled and their 22 cans tested very good on silencer research results.

    First Bolt Gun Recommendations

    Well I'd like to get into some long range shooting. I always liked the 500 yard line prone, so figured this may be a good time. I've never had a bolt gun before and I'm looking at the obvious manufacturer, Remington. Obviously they are the biggest out of the box rifle maker out there. I've been...

    Maggie’s Why I Carry a Gun, yeah, it's been around but it's

    ...still worth reading because it's that good. My old grandpa said to me, "Son, there comes a time in every man's life when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps. I don't carry a gun to kill people. I carry a gun to keep from being killed. I don't carry a gun to scare...
