NOTE: I received this pistol from a WWII veteran who said that he took it from a German Officer in Belgium in 1945. He no longer had the capture papers to verify this, but the story is plausible. I have for sale a German Ortgies pistol in 7.65mm (32ACP) caliber in overall VG condition with...

I'll take it. Email sent.

If they're the original Ruger mags, I say call Ruger. I'm sure they'd want to know about it, and will probably make it right.

...and while we're dreaming, how about a SR45c? (Okay, I know - I won't hold my breath.)

Whenever you do decide to clean it, be sure to occasiionally use something specifically designed to remove lead and copper buildup, like Sweets 7.62 or any of the other specialty metal solvents. Although I'd cleaned it with Hoppes after every outing, my 35 year old 10/22 shot like brand new...

The only dumb question is the one that isn't asked. Never hesitate to ask questions here. You're among friends. BTW, before shooting my SR9c, I completely disassembled it and removed ALL of the packing grease from every nook and crannie. I coated every metal part with Eezox, then greased the...

http://www.bobergarms.com/ Based on the website, and the posting that they're looking for CNC operators, it looks like they're ramping up for production.

The key to ANY type of gun coating is PREPARATION. The coating, no matter if it's Duracoat, Ceracoat, etc, needs to have something to "grab onto". The best way to prep a gun for any of the above is to degrease, bead blast and parkerize before coating. Alloys won't parkerize, but but blasting...

IDPA is for fun and practice with whatever you'd need to shoot in an emergency. If that's your P95, then shoot it. Just relax, have fun and enjoy the day with other shooters. You'll meet new people and make new friends!

I fondled the R1 at the NRA convention last year when Remington rolled it out. I was impressed by the fit and finish, but I'm sure they were hand picked before letting them loose on the crowd. The only thing keeping me from buying one is that I'm waiting for the Commander model. They've never...

I stripped my slide when I first got it home from the dealer and discovered a pile of grease in the striker pin channel. I cleaned it out with Eezox on several Q-Tips, then dried it with several clean ones. When I reassembled it, I "accidentally" forgot to reinstall the magazine disconnect...

I ordered mine online Saturday and it arrived Monday! $158 with free shipping before the $50 rebate. They included the necessary dated receipt and the form, too. Total price after rebate will be $108. I like the laser, too, as it feels very solid on the pistol. The three tiny screws clamp...

If you're really concerned about your slide corroding due to moisture contact, try applying a good carnuba car wax, or better yet, Renaissance Wax. I use EEZOX on my guns, which cleans and lubes them, and leaves a moisture (and fingerprint) resistant film on the metal. I've kepts guns in...

All done via the rear sight. 1) The flat-head screw adjusts elevation with "clicks" up or down. Simple enough done. 2) I needed to move the sight to the right a little to move the POI to the right... - I loosened the Allen screw with a small Allen wrench, - Clamped the slide (only) to my...

I got a nice tip today from my friendly laser grip dealer. Crimson Trace has announced that they'll be offering a $50 rebate on any CT laser grip purchased between April 2 and Jun 2, 2011. All you'll need to do is send in the completed form along with a copy of your receipt (with the date...
