      Full-size striker-fired BERETTA???

      I don't like it at all. I think its a just for looks and appeal to the crowd type of thing.

      Where is Indiana's ISIS?

      That is a very good point. :yesway: I do still have my fears and suspicions as do many others I'm sure.

      "Budget" long range build asking for advice...

      Like I had said in the beginning it would be over time. I've been shooting all my life and have learned a lot. I had reached the limits of my 700 and just wanted to make it a project. I'll just stick with a 700 like 42769vette had said and I'll just start off with the same rifle again. I'll keep...

      Where is Indiana's ISIS?

      They are probably waiting for their numbers to group significantly before they do anything at all. So this would mean they are using some kind of strategy. The whole firecrackers in a mall thing hasn't happened yet because they have probably been here a while and know us very well. I'm guessing...

      Where is Indiana's ISIS?

      I would say they are mingling in with the rest of us like the three caught in NYC yesterday. Its a damn shame that we as the citizens of this great country of ours have to look out for threats to our own security and way of life in our own backyard. I just wish that we could have a more secure...

      What was your first handgun?

      I grew up shooting at a very young age and always found joy in target shooting.the first handgun I had ever shot was a Colt 1911 that had been used and carried in Vietnam and I kept all 8 on a piece of duct tape on a tree at 25 yds. Still in the market for one ... The first handgun I had ever...

      "Budget" long range build asking for advice...

      And yeah I know that "budget" and " long range" are rarely seen in the same sentence. The "doner"rifle would be the part I would go cheap on but I would still look for a rifle of good quality. Basically I am just using it for the receiver and if possible the stock as well. The rest will be money...

      Seen this on Shooting USA

      That's kinda b!+CH!n... I have never seen a tacticool at style pump gun before. Is that what makes it Cali compliant? Someone will say it looks "scary" and it will be taken off the shelves in Cali. Or it could go well I don't know. Still nice though.

      "Budget" long range build asking for advice...

      Not similar but better. The 700 I had was an 800 yd gun on a good day. 400yd was about the best suited range with less than perfect conditions. The rifle was 629 special ordered by the local sporting goods store in Idaho. I had less than 1000 in it after scope, Leupold rings and base, and bipod...

      "Budget" long range build asking for advice...

      I would like to build a rifle to basically turn into a hobby and start reloading. I would start with a used rifle for an action and would prefer a beat up Remington 700 to start it off. I would be (over a period of time) replacing the barrel, trigger, and either build up the existing stock with...

      found hex 91/30

      i found it at Bradis and paid $250. there is solder and pins to the rear sight. Bolt slides are in blue. there is no SA stamp (i wish there was). the barrel was counter-bored. if i do anything it will be used for hunting and have no intent on selling it. i don't wish to make it something it...

      found hex 91/30

      Scout scope mount sounds good. Since its that good I guess I can leave it stock for the most part. I would like to keep the scope as low as possible and I have seen some that would replace the rear sight with a rail by using the leaf spring and replacing the pin with a bolt. That seems unstable...

      1st "Longer" range bolt rifle

      I owned a Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308. 20 inch heavy tapered contour barrel with a 1:10 twist. I was looking to build a budget long range rifle myself looking at the same ones also listed. The rifle was not cumbersome at all and at the range it was a dream to shoot. I was able to shoot 5...

      Winchester 190

      Thanks for the advice. I did go to the range yesterday. The 190 did well as I expected the scope sucked though. I was able to empty the mag tube of 16 rounds into one hole I covered with a dime at 50 yards. My buddy bought a Nikon 22 scope for his CZ and it is stupid accurate so I'll be buying...

      found hex 91/30

      A buddy and I went gun shopping the other day for a 91/30. We came across a hex receiver dated 1934 in pretty good condition. All numbers match bayonet, floor plate, butt plate, bolt, and receiver. Also after disassembly for cleaning we found that all and i do mean ALL pieces with a stamp had...
