      Corrosion from mouse urine

      Another dumb question, but I have 20 primed 45-70 cases that I didn’t cover and a mouse pissed on them and now the brass has corrosion. I want to clean these off, but am a little concerned about additional reactions to chemicals like solvents or oil given the fact they are primed. I also don’t...

      Handloading WW2 or post-war cartridges

      Sorry to ask a newbie question, but I want to handload 8x56R (Hungarian/Mannlicher) and new brass is super expensive and spotty in availability. My initial reaction is don’t handload old WW2 cartridge casings just because of age, corrosion, brittleness, etc but I want to get the advice of people...

      GOA alert ATF proposal to change form 4473

      Sorry if a dup. I ran across this on Instagram and had not heard this before. GOA is concerned a one page 4473 might be an easier path to registration. Responses before 4/20. (I assume is legit?) https://gunowners.org/na03262020/ Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

      AR bolt catch pin split - still safe?

      The bolt catch pin retainer post on a lower split due to the awful angle to get that in - the red line below on this stock photo is where the split is located. Pretty sure this can’t be welded as is 7075. Is this a big enough safety issue that the lower will need to be replaced? The bolt catch...

      Breaking In New Holster - Help Needed

      Just bought a new leather holster for my SR 1911 and the inside of the holster is ROUGH - the nap is all hard and I am afraid to use it for fear of scratching. Anyone have some thoughts on how to soften that up - it is like sandpaper - or should I just send it back?
