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...

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...

targets for kids
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...

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...
