      Brownells BRN-180/180S

      Anybody have one of these and care to provide any feedback? I like the idea of a piston driven AR, but have concerns about proprietary replacement parts, as well as the cost of the upper ($830 for the 10.5" version). If it were $400-500, it wouldn't be too bad, but currently is a little more...

      Increasing AK Trigger Pull Weight

      I have installed ALG Enhanced triggers in my Arsenal SLR107CR AK. With the standard hammer spring that came with the rifle I am getting a pull weight of about 3 lbs 5oz. I picked up a couple of the ALG high energy hammer springs, hoping that would get me up over 4 lbs, but it actually dropped...

      ALG AK Enhanced Trigger

      I installed the ALG Enhanced trigger in my Arsenal SLR-107CR tonight and am very happy with the upgrade. I plan on taking it out tomorrow for the rifles first shots. I did have to install the roll pin and then grind it down to engage the safety properly, but that was pretty easy, just took a...

      10mm Self-defense Load Testing

      A buddy and I went to the conservation club Saturday for some much needed range time. One of the things we wanted to accomplish was testing of some different 10mm Auto self defense loads. We looked at Federal 200-gr HST, Hornady 175-gr Critical Duty, Sig 180-gr V-Crown, Speer 200-gr Gold Dot...

      "Tactical" Flashlight

      I was in Indy Saturday with the wife to pick up a flashlight. I had been wanting to get a Surefire, since my preference was something made in the US. However, I had been seeing some good reviews and recommendations for the Fenix PD35. The PD35 is compact with a 1000 lumen output. Something...

      Gander Outdoors

      I was in Indy Saturday with the wife, and stopped in the newly reopened Gander Outdoors store while she was at Joann's. I didn't even realize they were going to reopen, let alone that they already had. Store is nice, and I actually had to guys at the gun counter ask if they could help me; both...

      Safariland - The Good and Bad, I Guess

      I ordered a 7395 holster and molly clip for my Glock 20 from Safariland on March 5. When I ordered, there was a note under the holster description that said it could take two weeks for them to make the holster. The molle clip shipped the day after I ordered. After waiting 2 weeks, I still...

      Precision Delta 10mm 200gr Bullets

      Ordered 2000 10mm 200gr FMJ bullets from Precision Delta yesterday to split with a buddy. They took off $20 PER 1K for ordering more than one case, and the shipping was free. If my math is correct, that should be about 57 pounds of bullets shipped free, so no complaints so far. Weird thing is...

      High Speed Gear

      Just ordered some stuff from High Speed Gear. Picked up a Laser Slim Grip padded belt, Cobra IDR Rigger Belt, two rifle Taco pouches, a double Taco pistol pouch, and a Bleeder/Blowout pouch. A little salty, but was recommended by someone a I trust. I'm taking a tactical rifle class in the...

      First Deer with 6.8mm SPC

      Burned my last vacation Friday day to get one extra hunt during gun season. I had only seen deer once in ten hunts this year, and missed it with my bow. Yesterday morning made it all worthwhile as I took two deer with my 6.8mm SPR-ish build. I was using handholds built with Hornady brass, Cci...

      Tripp Research 1911 10mm Mags

      Received my 10mm Tripp Research mags yesterday from Dawson Precision. $35 each with free shipping. The shipping said 3-10 days, which was cool because I didn't need them right away, but they showed up in 3 days. Awesome. They seem very nice, lock up well and drop free from my DW Razorback...

      Difference in Load Data Sources

      Ok, as part of my quest to look at 10mm Auto carry ammo alternatives after a squib load in my Winchester Silvertips, I decided to consider loading my own. I had done some load development in the Spring that included 180 gr XTP loads, using Accurate #9 and CCI standard and magnum primers. At...

      Squib Load in Carry Ammo

      Had a great time at Farmland Conservation Club shooting with a buddy yesterday, except for a problem with the carry ammo in my G20. I had a magazine of 15 rounds that had been in the gun for probably just over a year. Factory Winchester 175 gr Silvertips. I was slow firing and had counted...

      AR-15 Failure to Eject

      I took my 6.8mm SPC AR-15 SBR out to the range Sunday and had immediate failures to feed, meaning it started right away, not after a number of rounds had been fired. Pertinent rifle specs are: 11.3" Wilson Combat barrel, carbine gas Wilson Combat AR-15 BCG (not M-16) H buffer Standard carbine...

      Accurate 2200

      Looking for a local dealer that stocks powders. I'm trying to find some Accurate 2200 in either 1 lb or 8 lb containers. I tried Bradis, Elmores, Plainfield, Inlaws and Outlaws, and Cabelas with no luck. Indiana Gun Club, Fields, and Bobcat Armament are on my list too, but weren't open today...

      Good Gun Shop for 1911's

      Anyone have recommendations for a good gun shop that carries a large selection of 1911's? The wife and I are looking for a full size in 45 ACP. We already have three, but two are commander size, and the full size that we have is a 10mm. Just doesn't seem right to not have a 5" in 45 ACP. We...

      7N6 Restriction

      Has anyone heard if the restriction on 7N6 ammunition might be lifted? The new admin has much bigger fish to fry right now, but I would like to see this go (with a lot of other things). Maybe a petition on the White House website to draw attention to the issue again?

      Shotgun Accessories

      I'm looking to add a sling to my shotgun, possibly an optic, possibly a light, and also thinking about some type of ammo carrier. I have searched here, and on other sites, and it looks like the preference is a 2-point sling, but for the ammo carrier opinions abound. I'm leaning toward a butt...
