      Glock 43 Not Firing

      UPDATE: The problem was with the trigger bar. It was not depressing the firing pin safety. Ordered a new one and it now works flawlessly.

      Glock 43 Not Firing

      It just arose. I bought it used from a friend. He made one modification to it that could be cause it, but not sure. He beveled the edges of the ejector spring stop (firing pin safety), and after talking with some people wonder if it finally wore out too much on the bevel. I’m trying to swap it...

      Glock 43 Not Firing

      I have a Glock 43, with less than 2,500 rounds through it that is not firing. When the firing pin is out of the slide, it’s solid and firm. Once the firing pin is put into the slide and the back slide keep is put back on, there is some play with the firing pin, leading it to not pull back right...

      In need of a new rifle scope

      I'm purchasing a new .308 rifle and am looking to buy a quality scope. I'm looking for higher magnification, with quality glass. I've done some research but still don't fully trust what I've seen. For under $500, (or less) what are some of your favorite rifle scopes? Leupold, Nikon, Bushnell...

      Need a 308 Bolt, Remmy or Salvage?

      There is a solid chance you may have to replace the trigger on the Remington. Many have been replaced, and it may not be so on the one you buy, but their triggers were recalled for random firing. Now, it may have been a lot of user error, putting the trigger weight really low, and dropping it or...

      Barrel Length - Is it worth the hype?

      Ok, so for accuracy inside 600 yards, the 20" barrel is a good barrel. That's good to know. Also good to know that if someone takes a random shot at 1,000 yards, a 20" barrel can at least get it there pretty well. With the shorter barrel, it will also make it easier to do some hiking with it...

      Barrel Length - Is it worth the hype?

      I'm looking at purchasing a new rifle, and am between two guns. 1. Savage 10 FCP-SR in .308. It has a polymer bedded stock, and a 24" fluted, threaded barrel. 2. Savage 10BA Stealth in .308. It has a Chassis system stock, AR but stock, and a 20" fluted, threaded barrel. Overall I like the...

      WTS: .44 Special Charter Arms Bulldog Revolver, Holster, and Ammo

      This is a .44 Special, Charter Arms, Bull Dog, Revolver. I bought it three years ago at the Indiana Gun Show, and have shot 78 rounds through it. It was slightly used when I bought it. I'm selling it to help my budget for a new rifle. I enjoy the revolver, but have a Glock, and Smith and Wesson...

      .270 versus - 6.5 Creedmoor for Hunting and Target

      I'm looking for a round that can be used for both hunting, and range/target shooting. I've thought about the 300 win mag, but the price doesn't seem to be worth the extra power as I'll be using the rifle for more than just hunting. So in the end it really comes down to a few things: Versatility...

      .270 versus - 6.5 Creedmoor for Hunting and Target

      I don't know much about the .264 Win Magnum. I'll have to do some research. For how much I'll probably be able to shoot it ammo availability isn't a drastic concern, but it definitely plays a role, which is why I was considering the .308. I'm somewhat new to the high power rifle game so don't...

      WTS: Savage 10 FCP 308 Winchester

      I assume you sold this, but wanted to check?

      .270 versus - 6.5 Creedmoor for Hunting and Target

      What about a .308? I'm trying to decide between a 6.5 and .308. The slightly larger round and history behind the .308 make it appealing. But all the new info on the ballistics of the 6.5 make it seem like a close competitor. Thoughts?

      Long gun recommendations needed for deer season

      I've been doing some research into the .308 and it seems like an excellent round. As far as I know you can now use 30 caliber cartridges for deer. I've also heard great things about the 6.5 creedmore. Right now the .308 is more available but it looks like the 6.5 could become very popular and...

      End of story . . . . .

      Ha! Yes the point of carrying is to do exactly that, stay rid of con(victs). And cons in general.

      Camo dip

      That looks really cool. I have a few guns I may have to have him work on. How long did it take for you to get it back?
