      Question about black powder guns.

      I know you can just order them on line, they're shipped to your door and all you have to prove is you're over 18. I also know that the ATF does not consider a black powder gun to be a firearm and have read all over the place that even in this gun grabbing state a blackpowder gun is not...

      Rock Island 1911 warning from gunsmith.

      Wife and I were at Freestate day before yesterday and the rear dovetail sight came loose on our .45 almost falling off! Without thinking I pushed it back on and tried to fire the gun but it sights were too far off so I tried to loosen the set screw to adjust it and it would not move now at all...

      Bluing?

      Ok so I finished up my Luger and rust blued it however I am not pleased with the color I got and was wondering if anyone around here does bluing or should I just re-strip it and try it again?

      We're getting a Rock Island 1911 .45.

      Took the wife to the range today we fired the Luger and we rented a RI .45 to try out. First the Luger and after 3 rounds one of the shells went down her top and tried to make its home in her bra, needless to say that did not go over well at all. She damn near threw it at me screaming and trying...

      Rock Island 1911 .45.

      I can get a real good deal on a used RI .45 $350 should I jump on it or should I just get a brand new one for $100 more? The gun looks real good and I'll be checking it out in person on Monday and testing it out anything I should look for or be aware of? I figure I'll get an inexpensive 1911...

      Well here she is, opinions please.

      After a month or more of work, a week of rust bluing all new springs, a new upper, new grips, new magazine and lots and lots of filing, sanding, and test fitting and firing I think its done. I can run as much ammo as I want thru it with zero jamming, it shoots a little high and to the left but...

      189? Mauser question.

      New info on my Luger and now I'm ticked off!

      I showed it to my mother and asked her if she remembered it and she said " Yes thats the Luger my father gave to your dad" ....... What? You mean dad DIDN'T find it metal detecting? She laughed and said no your grandfather "FOUND IT when he was serving in France during WWII." What then dad...

      Blue Wonder.

      Has anyone tried this stuff and how does it work? I'm trying to re-do this Luger and so far no one from the couple restoration services seem to want any of my money, not sure why but whatever. So I figure I'll give a go at re-bluing it myself I figure worse comes to worse I'll just have to...
