If this is old news, please accept my apology. http://fmgpublications.ipaperus.com/FMGPublications/GUNS/GUNS0810/?page=40

I think there may be something deeper here than mere gun control. There are import restrictions on almost everything. All sorts of justifications are given, but the majority can be explained by one thing: Protectionism. If they can't be brought here, domestic companies don't have to compete...

My father-in-law does lots of target shooting, but his eyesight leaves something to be desired. He is interested in getting a reflex sight, and he asked me about them. I have never used one so I thought I would ask the experts.

How do you know when someone has enough money? Do you ask the President? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0JkyZx1LdQ

I understand market forces (those things we are slowly strangling with excessive regulations), but what specifically generates this crazy demand?

I was in Dallas today and I dropped in at the Premium Beretta Dealer. In their showroom they had several 90K shotguns (S010's) and there was even a model priced at 120K. So here is my question: What makes these guns so expensive? I know they are mechanically different than a Silver Pigeon...

As I understand it, the "tactical" 870's are part of the Express (budget) line of 870's. The 870P's are different as evidenced by this http://www.remingtonmilitary.com/articles/870ExpvsPol6-30-05.pdf Will these differences matter? Only you know how much you will use it. Also, if you are...

It is my understanding that the Remington 870 is a well respected platform. But are all 870s created equal? Now there are two lines in the defense department: the “870 Express” line and the “870 Police” line. Remington says there are major differences between these two lines. See...

A non-shooting friend of mine may inherit ONE of the following three rifles. He may not have a choice, but he asked me which one I would take if I were given the option to pick. They are: 1) Winchester 1894 Buffalo Bill Commemorative Carbine (.30-30) 2) Winchester 1894 Buffalo Bill...

1) Why do any number of cartridges survive? I will not mention any here for fear of the wrath I might incur, but "inferior" cartridges have massive followings. That said, the 460 S&W has captured my imagination, I will not attempt to logically support this choice. 2) I assume 45 Colt is...

I am interested in the 460 S&W mag because of its power AND its ability to use 454's and 45 Colts. I have not been able to find a rifle in 460 (I don't want a single shot). I would really like a carbine length. Could I buy something like this. http://cz-usa.com/products/view/cz-527-carbine/...

I have heard good things about these: http://www.ergogrips.net/item-detail.cfm?ID=4865-SHORT&storeid=1&image=moss500rail.gif&CFID=39504452&CFTOKEN=64139618 I see a few advantages with to this system over the Surefire: 1) it looks much slimmer/less bulky 2) it is more versatile (though I don't...

I'm sure you know this (and it was implicit in g-19's answer), but you will need a different buffer and spring as well. Since ALL collapsible stocks wiggle, do you really want to introduce that variable into your target rig? That said, I like Magpuls; I am happy with my CTR. But their PRS...

I was trying out a Kadet 22 kit on a CZ 85 pistol, but I could not figure out a good way to load the mags. They do not have an external way to depress the spring. Is there some sort of trick I'm missing? A tool?

+1 to any of Ed Brown's bobtail carry guns. My father recently purchased a Kobra Carry, I don't have the words to express how great this thing looks and feels. The trigger is unbelievably nice. That said, I have yet to shoot it.

Mods: If this is repost please delete. Apparently some of the M4s etc. were failing in a recent battle in Afghanistan. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,563883,00.html?test=latestnews Is this a real problem we should be concerned about? Our Senator certainly thinks so. What struck me was...

I was wondering if it is possible to put a bantam stock or equivalent on a Mossberg 590A1. If so, where does one buy such a stock? Looking on the Mossberg website the only black synthetic bantam stock I see is for the 410. Also, will any stock made for the 500 series work on a 590A1? Thanks...

+SBE I've loved mine since I got it 9 years ago. It should go without saying, but it has to be well lubed to run the light stuff.

Thanks for all the input.

I think you will be happy. I bought a used M&P-15 and an Eotech 512 came with it. About 4-6 months later I noticed that reticle was dimmer than I remembered. To make a long story short I emailed them and they told me to send it back to the factory. A few days later I received what appeared to...
