      I agree, a sub forum for reloading only would be an excellent addition :yesway:

      .308 Lee Enfield

      My Gibbs #7 jungle carbine in .308 is one of my favorite rifles but alas!... no peep sight. If you want to convert to a peep sight in an Enfield design .308 make sure it's an Ishapore.

      Boolits in Glocks?

      Wow, gas checks and hard as hammered .... in an automatic pistol round. Quite a recipe but if it works more power to 'em.

      removing Remington 870 dimples?

      Any decent paint would be okay, I just dabbed some Birchwood-Casey flat black around the holes in mine. You don't need to worry about matching the surrounding finish since the barrel band covers it up.

      Hk 91 flat bend

      Years ago I built a 91 over the course of several months from an ORF (Ohio Rapid Fire) flat and a demilled Enfield built G3 parts kit and I can tell you first hand that you really can bend that receiver yourself. What you are undertaking is a real build, not to be confused with assembling some...

      Thinking about an Ithaca pros and cons?

      I have a 1966 model 37 Featherlight that is my favorite bird gun ever. They are as tough as nails and especially handy if you are a lefty like me because of the bottom load/ejection port. There's a lot of history with these guns to boot as they were originally the John Browning designed...

      dicks misses earnings

      May their bellwether demise serve as an example to others of the same ilk. They deserve all they get, after all, they took away my Galyan's.
