      Forearm locking pin for magazine cap on Auto5

      I just bought a replacement stock and forearm for my 12gauge A5, from Brownells. The new forearm didn't come with the small pin the magazine cap seats against to keep from backing off. The same design is on my Remington 1100 as well. I contacted Brownells and they didn't have a part name or...

      black girl at the range

      I want to give a big kudos to Indy Gun Club's staff and patrons. In this day and age it should not be a big deal that a black female wants to learn to shoot sporting shotguns. And for the most part I think all of us shooters think the more the merrier. My daughter and I was talking with our...

      pistol reloading log

      Ok I did a search and I'm sure it has been discussed here somewhere, but I would like to know what information you need in keeping a log book. I don't see a need in buying expensive books to keep a good record of your loads. I just loaded my first pistol rounds with my Lee press, so I'm new to...

      Verona O-ring seal question

      I have a Verona SX405 and this thing eats the O-ring seal and will leave melted residue on the magazine tube. I have two questions. One is, does the Remington 1100 O-ring fit this gun? Because the one from Verona is harder to find. And the second question is, do they make a O-ring that is rated...

      Firearm purchase from New Jersey

      I purchased a muzzle loader from Sportsmans Gear out of New Jersey. My understanding is that you do not have to have an FFL to receive a muzzle loader that has a fixed barrel. I got a call asking for my FFL before they can ship it to me. I was then informed that this was a New Jersey law and...

      I went with my grandmother to the gun store and she picked out a Beretta 21 Bobcat. We have not had the opportunity to shoot it yet. Does anyone have an opinion on this firearm.

      ported choke tube question

      I'm not sure what forum this should get posted in so I'll post it here. I have a Franchi ported double barrel and I was searching for new choke tubes. And found that there are ported choke tubes designed to slow down the wad and more consistently pattern the shot. Does a ported barrel do the...

      Franchi Diamond O/U

      I have a Franchi Diamond O/U that is not inertia operated, that is intermittently switching to the wrong barrel from where the selector switch is set. Also when this happens the firing pin seems like it is not fully driving forward to strike the primer and will have a miss fire. Anyone have any...

      Grandma wants a gun

      I got a call from my grandmother today, who will be 70 years old this year, and she is going to apply for a carry permit. She was wanting to know what would be a good handgun for some one her age with mild arthritis. I was thinking on the lines of a pistol instead of a revolver for lighter...

      I just got a bulletin from the NRA website that stated the Hearld Times is going to disclose the number of individuals in a neighborhood that have gun permits. I don't know about anyone else but that makes me feel like they are trying to set me up for home invasions. What criminal would love to...
