      Marlin 1895 Guide Gun vs Rossi Rio Grande 45-70

      Hey fellow IN gun owners, I am wanting to purchase a 45-70 lever action rifle, and I am currently debating between a new Marlin 1895 guide gun and a Rossi Rio grande. Does anyone have any experience good or bad that could give me a suggestion on which one to go with? The Rossi is a full 100...

      Will either of these optics do for a 338 win mag?

      42769vette, thanks for the info. What type of scope would you recommend that I look into purchasing? I could probably fork up around 250 right now, which I know could get me a lower end Leupold or a Bushnell Elite. Would either of these work?

      Will either of these optics do for a 338 win mag?

      Hey all, I recently purchased a Ruger M77 Hawkeye in 338 win mag. Currently I own a Bushnell Trophy 3-9X40 and a Nikon Prostaff 3-9X40. I have the Bushnell on my AR and the Nikon on my .30-06, but I have an extra scope laying around (centerpoint) that isnt as good of quality that I will probably...

      Thanks for the replies and info everyone. I relayed the message to her and she has now successfully completed her application for the license. Hopefully she will be receiving it before too long. Thanks again!

      Carry Permit for my Wife (teacher)

      Hey all, I was looking for some advice regarding my wife getting a lifetime carry permit. First, I heard the rumor that Indiana is getting rid of the Lifetime Carry permit next year. Im not sure if it is true or not (since that would require new legislation), but Id rather not chance it. Second...

      Question about potential assault weapons ban

      Thanks for the replies everyone, I am not too terribly concerned that he will actually be able to pass an AWB, but I was just asking about the details regarding the previous one assuming that a new one would be rather similar. @Sylvain, thanks for the reply, I completely agree with you about...

      Question about potential assault weapons ban

      Hey all, I didnt really own anything other than a pair of Mossberg 500s before 2004 when the assault weapons ban was lifted, so I am rather unfamiliar with what all that will entail. Since I have several high capacity pistols, rifles, and shotguns now, if Obama reinstates the assault weapons...

      Bersa Thunder .380 Reviews?

      I have one of the two tone Bersa Thunder 380's and I carry it occasionally. I do not have a bad thing to say about this firearm. 400 rounds through it and not one misfire, it is more accurate than most firearms with this barrel size, and the trigger pull is great. However, it is a bit bulkier...

      S&W Bodyguard or Ruger LCR

      I have personally shot both of those, and I preferred the way the Bodyguard felt when shooting. I noticed that many people had mentioned a semi-auto in 9mm. I would have to agree with those individuals for preference in carrying a semiauto, especially with how slim some of the 9mm pocket guns...

      Hey man, thanks for the help yesterday with the Nano purchase. I posted a thread about it this morning. It functioned great at the range, but could I get your advice on my shooting? The gun functioned well, but it wound up consistently shooting low about 4 to 5 inches. I typically shoot full...

      New Beretta Nano purchase/range report

      Thanks for the replies. I was aiming the Nano like image 2 when I was shooting, so Im not sure what the cause could be. I was a little shaky this morning when I was at the range due to a little too much caffeine and too small of a breakfast, maybe that was it, though I dont think it would throw...

      best glock

      I feel like the Glock is a fine firearm, but so is the 1911, they are too different to compare. They are both very reliable and both larger guns, other than that they have minimal in common. But as for the actual question, I would have to say the Glock 20sf is the best Glock that one can buy...

      Is it bad or am I doing ok

      Im in the same boat man, Im 27, and had only a few guns when I was 22, now I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 25 guns. But, I looked at it and thought, I always have all of my bills paid on time, and I never put myself into debt because of a firearms purchase (credit cards, etc.), and I...
