      Handgun Show-N-Tell

      I know I'm a bit of an odd ball liking .40 cal. But every once in a while you get lucky and find something good cheap!!! Found this S&W Performance Center Barrel and Slide for my first gen M&P. It really changed the way this gun shoots! I'm Loving it! The Red Dot is a Vortex Venom. I love...

      It Is Time To Stock Up On Ammo,

      Especially when they had the Federal 550 boxes of .22s used to pick up a box once a week, or month when they were under $20.00. I don't want to say how many .22s I have stocked away...

      Auto loading .308 that doesn't kinda suck?

      My one and only rifle so far in .308 is an Ishapore Enfield built in 1967. But what I want to give carful consideration to is the new Ruger SFAR. The YouTubers I follow seem to like it, so I'm going to give it a look.

      My new, cheap-ish 22 Magnum

      I've always had a soft spot for the 22 wmr. My Single Six has the magnum cylinder and love shooting it. Wish I had never sold the Bolt action 22 wmr I had, but it went to a good home, a farmer that needed something to keep the foxes and such out of his hen houses. Never thought of an AR in 22...

      Air rifle for squirrels

      Depends on the ammo used. A PCP can use "Slugs" which are shaped like bullets and can really fly well, so range will be farther. But a normal wasp waist pellet by design slows down quickly. Some PCPs can take small game at close to 200 yards when using slugs, in fact there are a few PCPs that...

      Still in the Decision stages of my suppressor build. I am currently waiting on a reply from the the company I plan to use. But I was wondering if anyone has ever had their suppressor cryogenically frozen? It toughen up all kinds of metal. But I am wondering if the heat from firing rounds...

      Support your LGS: How hard am I supposed to try?

      I will say this, LGS are between a rock and a hard spot. They have no idea what the next batch of ammo will cost them. so they need to be prepared for the next increase. I know there are some who gouge, but they are also try8ing to stay in business! My wife and I own a Dump Truck Business...

      Support your LGS: How hard am I supposed to try?

      For those of you here in Indy, I have been going to The Outdoorsman Shop just into Johnson county on 135. They seem to be resisting inflating their prices ATM. Today my purchase was 100 rds of 115gn 9mm Winchester for 49.00, and one box of 40 cal Winchester for 32.00. I probably would have...

      Those SKS`s are getting expensive .......

      Any Airgunners out there?

However Ammo for Airguns Has taken a hit as well, Perhaps more lead is going to powder burners? I currently own 4...
