      Weapon Cleaning kits, solvents and Lubes

      I'd like to put in a plug for Militec-1. I teach youth shotgun. Our gas guns get pretty funky over time. We use MILITEC on ALL the metal parts. When PROPERLY applied, (applied, then HEATED to a dry finish) it seals and lubes the surfaces. Cuts clean-up and provides a dry lubed surface. The...

      Best starter Shottie for my 13 year old son

      Gun for 13 YO I'd suggest, the best of both worlds ....a 12 ga Remington V3..it has the LEAST recoil of ANY 12ga and rivals the recoil of a 20ga. If you shoot 1oz target loads, it is even softer! The new design is an engineering marvel with only two moving parts and NOTHING on the magazine...

      Semi-Automatic shotguns

      I've got to get in on this! As a youth coach, hunter and clays shooter, I've tried many guns. My absolute favorites are the new Remington Versa Max (3.5") and the Remington V3 (2 3/4-3") guns. Both have a revolutionary new gas system design that has removed ALL the parts from the mag tube! They...

      What is the Benefit of an O/U? Sem-Autos Cost Less.

      IMHO Break-open single-shots and pumps are just shoulder hammers for youth and young adults shooting multiple clays....no or next to no recoil reduction. All of which leads directly (do not pass go....) to flinching and unpleasant shooting. TRY to borrow a youth 20ga semi from somewhere for the...

      What is the Benefit of an O/U? Sem-Autos Cost Less.

      youthcoach Let me add a few things (possibly)...as an instructor, I look for gun fit and function. O/U's generally are heavier (think two barrels vs. one) and longer. Many will not fit young adults/youth correctly/comfortably. They ARE more reliable then S/A's. They require more precision to...

      Advice on Starting a High School Rifle Team?

      H.S. (ROTC) air rifle team In Charles County there are several ROTC air rifle teams - Stone, McDonough, LaPlata and Westlake. There is also a strong 4-H air rifle program (301) 934-5404. If there is no 4-H program in your County...you can join 4-H in another County. I do not think St. Mary's...
