Hot Weather Recurves
This may be a dumb question but it needs to be asked: is my recurve bow ok to use in the summer? Not talking about leaving it in a truck all day, but in an open boat or just practice in the yard with 90 degree heat and high humidity like a normal July day. It's a PSE Impala, glass over wood... -
Cut Lead Bar Rounds
A neat history video I stumbled on this morning. Short version is the Ottoman foot soldiers would pour lead into a cut it into cubes for their bullets. First thing that came to mind while watching is the Puckle gun variant that was specially made to shoot square bullets when fighting muslims...- Goose Guy

Shotshell Print Removal?
Does anyone know of a way to remove the print off a shotshell without damaging the plastic, besides carrying it in a pocket for a few days? Asking for someone who does reload shells for hunting, but the 00BK hulls may not go over so well. -
Federal Fusion slug results (very graphic)
So I'm finally sitting down to do this amateur CSI-esque review of Federal's Fusion 12 ga., 2 3/4" sabot slug. But first, let me say... WARNING: EXTREMELY GRAPHIC DEAD DEER PICTURES!!!!! Specs on the slug, as per the box, are 7/8 oz copper plated hollow points moving at 1600 fps. To be...- Goose Guy

Ist das nicht ein uber gun?
Ja das ist ein uber gun! Ist das nicht ein ton of fun? Ja das ist ein ton of fun! Uber gun! Ton of fun! Oh, du schöne Oh, du schöne Oh, du schöne Schnitzelbank! I always wanted one of there and with 10/1 fast approaching, I figured now or never. The grip and balance are fantastic... -
Delmarva State Flag
I'm in a creative mood today, so I tried to think up what could be the flag of the Eastern Shore if we ever split off from MD. I picked green and blue to represent land (farms, etc.) and water (fishing/water based industry) that define the region both geographically and culturally. The gold...- Goose Guy

A couple dumb AR questions...
Well, here's a chance for you all to make me feel like some inept idiot. Do all 5.56/.223 AR barrels and flash hiders have the same threads? For reference, I have a Black Rain 20" stainless barrel and some nameless A2 flash hider. I think it may be the finish on both pieces binding, kind of...- Goose Guy

.45 auto bullets in a .45 colt case?
Asking for a friend: Say someone loads for .45 acp with 185gr. plated bullets and would like to use that same bullet for .45 long colt loads, would it be possible? Both appear to be .452 in diameter, as far as Berry's site goes. We figure the lighter bullets probably won't be as accurate in... -
.45/9mm Carbine Suggestions?
I just need this one last flavor before the October. I really like the looks of the old stamped SMGs of old, like the Sterling, S&W M76 or MP-40s. Not so much on Uzis or look-similars, though. The problem is that I can't seem to find any around that aren't complete ripoffs ($850 used for a... -
SW760 / Suomi Mag Question
Here's one for you guys, do Swedish K or Suomi stick mags work in a Special Weapons SW760 carbine? Would they need to be modified with some difficulty? Tried google, but not much luck with consistant answers. The pictures look to be pretty close, though. Thank you for your time. -
At least we aren't NJ
Before you go any further, find a nice big bottle of hard liquor, and take a deep breath. http://www.ammoland.com/2013/02/new-jersey-gun-owners-get-a-big-fu-from-state-house-democrats/#ixzz2KPKB1sh5 Most notably this logistical nightmare...- Goose Guy

Because 2 barrels aren't enough
So this may be a thing now: Not sure what to think about it. Cool and different factor is off the charts, but it looks kind of heavy. Also can't see this taking off for very long since it doesn't do much a comparably priced semi auto can't. -

Heresy!
Forgive me Browning, for I have sinned. The other day I went over to Scott's and got myself a Glock 26. I still maintain that the little chunk of plastic is about the ugliest thing ever made, but it proved to be something worth looking at as far as performance is concerned. Hopefully... -
Super slow motion flint vs. percussion
Maybe a repost, but very cool nonetheless. Shows how much of an advantage caplocks have over flintlocks in terms of delay. Yes, the gun eventually fires at the end Skip the first 0:25- Goose Guy

Pedersoli SxS tumbler screw needed
I knew when I got the thing that it had a screw stripped out. But no big deal, it still shoots good and is mechanically sound. Last time I shot it, the tumbler screw finally gave up and the screw and hammer went flying. Found the hammer, gave up on the screw. The tumbler itself is fine, but...- Goose Guy

What to do...
I'm at a bit of a junction. I could just keep my Taurus 85 3" and leave it at that....or trade it for a new PF-9 that I've been looking at for a long time. I already have someone interested in the revolver, but I still like the thing, even as a range toy. It carries reasonably well, but... -
Lawnmower Test
Here's a great way to see how durable your CCW pistol is; throw it in the middle of the yard in high grass on grass cutting day....just kidding. Many of you know of the [in]famous Walmart Walk. I came up with something similar, but different. Wear your handgun while cutting the grass... -
AK Collapsible Stock
Does anyone know of a local place that has a collapsible stock for an AK47? Thinking around the Annapolis/Odenton area. Nothing fancy, just something longer than the wood that came with it. Thanks. -
NcStar Pistolero Illuminated?
I'm looking at getting an NcStar Pistolero Illuminated 2-7x32 scope to use as a scout scope on a rifle. I'd be sold by now, except for the confusion on the "illuminated" part. Does this mean there is a regular black crosshair in it that lights up if you choose to, or is it something like a red...
