      Bedside / nightstand drawer gun storage options?

      i've loved my fort knox pb1 (pistol box), there are similar options from VLine.

      CZ75 choices

      glad to see some love on here for the P-07... great piece that is often overlooked. When things aren't crazy-pandemic-election, they can be found for very affordable prices. If you want magazine compatibility... I like the combo of a P-01 (or PCR) and a full size 75 - like the SP-01 Shadow. The...

      CZ75 choices

      follow-up: I currently have a 75 Shadow (not the SP-01, but the steel framed "Shadow lite" with no rail, no firing pin block [thus the "shadow" designation]), and I love it! These aren't nearly as common from the CZ custom shop in AZ. Every now and then I wish I had a rail, but I have other...

      CZ75 choices

      For carry (of mainly for carry), I agree that the P-01 and the PCR are the best for carry, followed closely by the P-07 (hammer fired, polymer lower). If carry is not the main objective - then any of the CZ75 family would do. My favorite would be a standard 75, 75 SP-01 shadow, 75 Shadow (no...

      CZ question thread - serious discussion only

      I think the newest gen BD come really nicely appointed. Grips, sights, etc I haven't gotten hands on a regular "B" in a few years. Main difference is if you prefer a real safety OR a decocker (with no "safe" position). I would ultimately get whatever is most similar to your other CZs...

      45 super

      resurrecting old thread - I'm wanting to shoot 45 super out of a FNX 45 Tac, using a basic comp to help slow slide speed, this will be a backup woods gun (if in bear/cougar country). The choices are a 357 revolver, or this suped up 45. So, anyone shooting 45 super? I was also looking at 460...

      Henry's new Lever Action X models

      They're not winning beauty pageants... BUT I would really consider one of these in 357/38. The only other option that was factory THREADED **AND** SIDE LOADING GATE was the marlin, or customizing another. I'm really gald to see a Henry in 357 with side loading gate

      CZ75 - .22LR conversion kit ?

      If you want to shoot any conversion in .22 LR, the Kadet is the best option (IMHO). It may require minor fitment (sanding), but mine fit perfect. If pairing with a newer production CZ, the fit will likely be perfect/very close with little/no fitting needed. My 75 had a lighter spring kit and I...

      Ruger 9mm revolver bore size?

      Hi all - I'm curious about the *new* Super Gp100 9mm 8-shot revolver from their custom shop, specifically the bore diameter. Anyone happen to know if it's. 355, .356, .357, etc? Also, is it the same as the sp101 9mm bore? I know these are very specific questions, but I have little interest in...

      Springfield TRP

      I have a DW Specialist and love it. The TRP was #2 on the list and easily could have come home with me. I found the DW I wanted, in the finish I wanted, and that won the day! (I wanted a rail on mine) The DW Pointman series is awesome as well.

      Custom build.

      lots of good ideas... need more info. Does "rifle" mean bolt-gun or semi-auto? Any caliber/range of calibers you're considering. Does long range mean 300 yds or 1200 yds for you? Does hitting power of a Ford pickup mean enough to take a deer at 500 yds, or punch through a vehicle at 1000 yds...

      Tell me about the .22-250

      Awesome that he won it!! It's a screaming round. If you always run the hottest stuff, it can be a bit of a barrel burner - but most people don't shoot enough to make that a big issue. One of the things I wish somebody had told me about the 22-250 is that most factory guns have slow twist rates...

      Take a person to the range for the first time.

      Depending how serious he is - some people make those comments without actually wanting to go shooting - I'd consider taking him. A 20 minute safety + hand-on session (no ammo, not at range) would give you a good idea of his abilities. I try to take some new people shooting when possible, and...

      3" folder recommendation?

      Hi all - I'm looking for recommendations on a folding knife. Budget of $75-ish, looking for a 3.0" folding knife for EDC. CAn be plain edge or partial serration. I'd like it to be as close to 3.0 inches as possible (2.75-3.00 would be fine) Thanks
