      Ruger 10/22s: disappointing

      I was thinking of getting another Ruger 10/22, but I've been really disappointed with two of the three I've had. One, with a neat Choate(?) stock, just stopped shooting. The trigger wouldn't activate. I'd gotten about a dozen practice rounds through it before a steel plate match, and...

      Argentine Mauser?

      The wife & I were antiquing today at some out of the way places. At one antique & consignment shop (which was closing for the day) I handled an 1891 Mauser, " MANUFACTURA LOEWE BERLIN," stamped on the left side of the receiver. It looked pretty good. The wood was really good; the bluing was...

      Corrosive Ammo question

      Say, for the sake of discussion that I have a WWI-WWII milsurp rifle that I want to use in a match. I have avoided corrosive ammo because the rifle is a pain in the butt to disassemble, and I don't like to use soap & water on a rifle that I can't take all apart. I don't have a large stockpile...

      Thank you Advocates

      Ya know....when the Maryland Legislature is in session, I always know where my son can be found.... with his wife, in the swamp, for long hours, testifying on behalf of our Second Amendment Rights. I don't think many gun owners really realize the commitment and efforts, not the mention the...

      Offset sight question.

      Suppose somebody (not me, of course), had an AR build and wanted to have both a scope and flip up iron sights. Custom & practice indicate that the scope is on top and the sights either under the scope or at a 45 degree offset. If things didn't fit that way, would there be any serious...

      Went to the Lebanon Show today

      Crawled the 70 miles to the Lebanon Show today. I didn't have high expectations, it being so close to the holidays, but I was still disappointed. The lot was almost full at 11:30 a.m. & the three rooms were almost full, but the guns, ammo & accessories would have filled one of the two bigger...

      Best defense bullet in .38/.357?

      I've seen the videos where various bullets are fired into ballistic gel, and noted the cavitations along the path. It seems like the most expansive cavitation often occurs several inches into the gel, to the point that unless the perp is a really fat person, the most serious effect would be...

      Armed Citizens Ignored Again

      I'm really ticked off (again). This morning I caught the tail end of CBS News, Sunday Morning where they were noting the 50 years memorial of the Texas sniper massacre: Whitman shooting people from the Texas University clock tower. They interviewed witnesses, survivors, and the police officer...

      Belated Hello and Intro from Harford County.

      Even though I joined in 2008, I didn't have my own computer until a few months ago and using a company computer was limited. Add to the fact that I'm a computer idiot, means I haven't done much but watch. I just figured out that I should do an introduction, and how to do it. Anyway, I'm a...
