    What is the difference between a clone and a replica?

    I've always wondered why gun gurus balk when the word clip was used referring to a magazine, but Banana Clip was an acceptable term? Also, I've heard the term clone used for decades referring to guns, cars, etc. Never thought that it was first used originally for a biological/medical meaning...

    What is the difference between a clone and a replica?

    It looks like it has a very nice blued finish. I had a Taurus 85 Poly that I gifted to someone that couldn't afford to buy herself a pistol. I was surprised that for a budget gun, it was of descent quality. I also inherited a Rossi 357 that was Taurus owned. Also a nice gun for the price. My...

    GP100 Cylinder Binding

    I've considered the hammer shims, but the new hammer Ruger installed seems to be hand fitted and polished. So happy with this new setup, that I'm reluctant to do anything else. I installed shims on my SP101, but if it's not broke, don't fix it.

    Black Powder 357 Vaquero's

    Usually 777 is in stock. However I've only used APP the past 3 or so years that I've been shooting black. Wouldn't matter I'm sure I would enjoy any sub that's available.

    Black Powder 357 Vaquero's

    Been using full loads last 2 or 3 years. I just tried using Cream of Wheat for the 1st time for the heck of it. No one in my club has been able to get APP for a while. I'm sure I'd be happy with any Black substitute. Not looking for advice, just enjoyed trying new loads and shooting my...

    Black Powder 357 Vaquero's

    Loaded up some black powder (substitute) rounds today with about 30% cream of wheat. 1st time adding the Cream of Wheat and couldn't tell a difference. Surprised! Maybe a little less smoke. Glad because I only have 1 lb of APP FFF left and I can't find it anywhere. That should stretch it as I...

    Poll: have you drawn your weapon in SD

    Agreed. Most polls that I have seen usually ask a question in such a manner as to get a certain response, whereas if the question was asked differently, there would be a different response. A good example was a poll that I recently saw asked "if guns should be allowed in schools?" If the...

    Poll: have you drawn your weapon in SD

    Not sure if this counts but years ago where I worked in a job referral office, there was a belligerent customer yelling that he wanted a refund. As the assistant manager I explained that we couldn't do that. The customer jumped the counter, grabbed me by the neck and told me " I'm going to...

    What is the difference between a clone and a replica?

    Not sure but I think the Tanfoglio does not have interchangeable parts with the the CZ so ( if true) it would not be a clone, whereas the Jericho does interchange parts making it a true clone. I know absolutely nothing about the SAR. Just my thinking, and what I think and $5 would buy you a cup...
