      What's the LOUDEST gun you own?

      Loud My ported, 21" 870. Separated by thick brush in a shelter-belt, my brother-in-law can always tell when I'm doing the shooting.

      What would you use for home defense?

      Firepower It would be hard to beat a short-barrelled 870.

      Lafayette Gun show this weekend!

      Barn Lights I went to that show, not enough light in that building to see anything. Maybe OK for hogs but not guns. Won't ever return.

      Jeweling and taking blue off parts

      One of the major advantages of jeweling steel is that the surface retains oil better than a polished surface, making for reduced wear and increased rust resistance.

      Small parts Air Compressor

      Small Compressor Check the pawn shops, they usually have some and they are often a good buy. Remember that oil-less piston-types are very noisy and small diaphragm-types are quiet but most produce less pressure than piston-types.

      Delaware machinery lowers

      Delaware Lower I'm not an expert, as this is my first AR, but mine is very nicely finished everywhere you look. All functions seem good and it is a very tight fit to my CMMG upper.

      Ruger Canoe Paddle .17HMR My buddy in SD uses a Ruger .17HMR on coyotes. I have not done it personally. Sometimes he gets close on a snow-sled.

      Ruger 10/22 Bolt

      Is anyone doing good bolt mods in the Indy area? Mostly I want the lower rear radiused and maybe the firing pin pinned-down in the front for additional reliability. I might want jeweling if it is really good or I might want it blackened because everything else is black on the rifle.

      Thinking of buying a Ruger 10/22

      10/22 Tactical Target I have a new one with an NcStar red-dot. Great fun on steel. I've changed the bolt-handle and the added a mag-release lever for better ergonomics. Also added a BlackHawk lace-on cheek piece for the height of the sight

      Prairie dog info needed please

      Sage rats A .17HMR Savage BTV with a Leupold VXII 3-9X40 works out to about 230 yards for me in South Dakota. I have Leica 8X50 binoculars that make me want a rifle for longer range. A .22LR will work well for the smaller and less wary flickertails.

      Ruger 10/22 Hammer Mods

      Before the question, here are a few givens: 1) I am not a gunsmith. 2) I can be an observant and meticulous craftsman if required. 3) I am a responsible gun-handler and know how to be sure that my firearms operate safely. 4) I have a new 10/22 that can benefit from some trigger-group...

      10/22 build

      What do you experienced 10/22 guys recommend for bolt mods? It seems that this build might merit some and I'm curious about them for my new Tactical Target as well.
