Great looking guns! My MKIII is mostly used for small game hunting and this time of year is likely to have dirt, leaves or coon fur sticking to it. :D I do, however, keep it clean and lubed. I may have to get another just to try to keep up with you "Jonses" and make it sharp like the ones in your ph...

update: I sent the broken Pentax back to their customer service department with a note asking for a price on repair or parts to do it myself. I called them a week later to see if they had received my package and had made a decision regarding my situation. The representative told me that I would rece...

$300 was a steal--you could double your money easily, if you were to sell, but I won't sell mine and I'm sure that you're having way too much fun with yours as well.

I got a big Golden but have n not been a kid in a t least 70 years. Have not had Petey and Paul the plastic prairie dog brothers out to the range in some time now. Been too busy shooting the 1894C. I got real lucky a couple of months ago and snagged a 1894c ('82 model) in great shape for a decent p...

Taurus Millenium Pro. Going around here for $320. Pretty good feel. Also, some of the Phillipine 1911's go at a reasonable price. The trouble with having a handcannon comes in feeding them if you shoot a lot. 9mm handguns aren't quite as expensive to feed. For a first handgun I like .22's such as a...

I've read about that kid--thought about him today as I was "function testing" a few 158 grain +p .38 rounds through one of my J-frames.

good suggestions

My eleven year old son likes to plink with a Sig Mosquito that I got from a buddy. He likes shooting for a while, but eventually tires of "punching paper" or even plinking the steel flip targets. I do, however, always try to end the sessions BEFORE he is really burned out. I recently purchased a few...

Good information about the reamer. I probably needed one a year or so ago for a rifle that I was working on, but sold it recently to somebody that wanted it a little more than I did.

Best of luck and hope the FT whatevers stay away for good.

As far as affordable goes, the Remington OO buck (12 gauge) at Wally World can't be beat. Experts such as Mas Ayoob often recommend that load and brand (2 3/4") for home defense. Mine is loaded with it now and have several more boxes in reserve. Don't get caught up in specialized home defense/self d...

I run buckshot in my HD shotgun--4 in the magazine and 3 more in the elastic loops on the stock. I do have 2 standard slugs easily identifiable in the stock loops for the possibility of barrier penetration, etc. In my application on the shotgun, I believe the slug goes completely against everything ...

I really don't know how someone can justify shooting a 73 year old man and stealing his belongings. It's hard to imagine ever reaching a point in life where doing such a thing would ever even become a thought. Without knowing details of the story, I'd be willing to bet they are white trash, meth he...

charlesb,

This last pin they sent me is a little looser than the original. I really have to watch to make sure it is still in the correct place before installing the grips.

The first day that I used Eezox, I thought it would kill me. Now, I like it a little more every time I break it out. I've even turned other folks onto Eezox simply by the sweet aroma--like cookies in the oven.

I haven't used the product you're asking about.

I agree and would deem this case "solved".
