    How Safe is your Collection

    When I lived on the Eastern Shore I went to a local auction(Crumpton Center of the Universe). Bought one of those Heavy Locking File Cabinet. Took two men and a boy to load it. Put it in my small gun shop on the farm. Unloaded easy with a large tractor and front end loader. It had about 8...

In the bottom of mine I happen to have 500 pounds of lead stored in each. you will not walk the corners of them...

    Meet the 5 Best Concealed Carry Semiautomatic Guns

    I still carry 45 in the winter usually a 4.25 inch Kimber..Summer I carry a Sig 365...and a Smith 60-4 sometimes....a PPK sucks. Swore I'd never own a Grock but I recently bought a Glock 43?...a little 6 shot Glock..Don't remember the number but new in the box it cost me 250. I prefer the Sig...

    Ruger Old army

    `Thanks for the comments guys I don't know the length of the bbl. Looked at the gun but don't remember the length...DUH! Seemed shorter to me. I was kinda looking at aa S&W 22 he had too. I have a blue AS with 7 1/2 in. Never shot it. Got plenty of stuff to shoot ...I do have another BP pistol...

    Have a Wrangler 22

    Wash thinking of that. I'm going to sell the 45 and 9mm cylinders anyway. I want to keep the LRcylinder. Just bought a SS missing the LR cylinder. It dropped right in.Shoots as good as I can..or better

    Ruger Old army

    It's nice...fired in the past but not a lot...clean no rust very light thinning of blue on bbl end and front edge of cylinder. Think it had a flap holster too. Don't know the brand of that

    Ruger Old army

    When buying the 4 cylinders the fellow brought out an Old Army in really exc condition. Don't know if he has the box but it has no adj sights like mine. Are they worth more...more rare?? He seemed to think so. He said he'd take 500 for it. Worth that kind of price??

    Have a Wrangler 22

    Well maybe I'll just sell the Wrangler and get the Super. Got the cylinder anyway. It's in a little red bag in a box. Looks new.

    Manual safety on semi auto's or not?

    I must say I do like safeties. Mycarry piece for summer is a Sig. 365. It has no safety and I do not trust it with loaded chamber. But it is a truck/car gun. winter I still carry a 1911...Right now a cheap Rock Island Arms with all the bells and whistles. I used to carry my Wilson Combat or an...

    I just bought a Ruger Mark II target

    The gun is long bbld and Blue Walnut checkered. As far as ammo I use most alli of the bulk stuff. my Smith shoots CCI SV and the Federal bulk stuff well. this ruger likes CCI minimags. I broke out a box of tenex and it shoots them well but with a couple fails to eject...expensive play. The lady...

    I just bought a Ruger Mark II target

    The only downside is the bbl is long...makes it heavy. I've been told they shoot well. When my wife and 6 of her friends took the concealed carry course the instructor had a bunch of shorter bbld Rugers for the students to shoot...everybody wanted to shoot my High Standards and 41s...including...

    I just bought a Ruger Mark II target

    I've never been a big fan of the Ruger semi auto pistols. I still bought one the other day.new with docs but no box(no mag either). Not a big deal on the mags as I got a bunch of magazines at a yard sale for 20 bucks that had 4mags for the Mark II...and 2 for my S&W 41. Even had 2Colt and one...

In 14 years I loaded an average of 50,000 shotshells easily. more... every year. Shooting pigeons was a...
