      Hey All, OK, I'm accepting that I'll never make nice nice with my un-beloved early model Smith & Wesson SW22 Victory. I got one to replace a Ruger MKIII Hunter Model, which I loved with the exception of its breakdown for cleaning. I love the easy takedown of the SW22, the...

      Lighter "Suppressed Springs" for 10/22 Takedown?

      Hey All, I'm runnning a much beloved Gemtech Mist on my 10/22 Takedown, however after 500+ rounds, I've yet to be able to run anything slower than CCI Standards through it and still cycle the bolt. I'm running a Kidd Charging Handle and using the stock bolt spring if that makes any...

      Gemtech Integra 300Blk Upper - Anyone have one?

      Hey All, I have a trusty dusty Colt 6721, and due to space, have little interest in building another AR, however have been interested in having a suppressed SBR Upper. The Integra seems to solve both of those wants, with 1 stamp vs. 2. Just wondering if anyone here owns one, or has had...

      So what is so special about old Springfield Armory 4x14x56 scope's?

      Cutting Down Golf Clubs For A Kid?

      Hey Golfers, Anyone here ever cut down a set of clubs for their kid? My 8yr old has some interest, and I have more than a few old clubs layin around, so figured it'd be cheaper than buying even a used Jr. set.... I figure with new grips and a pipe cutter its easy enough to do, but how...

      So what's so special about Hasting's Barrel's???

      Hey All, So I have a few too many shotguns that do the same things, so I'm thinkin of converting a Mossberg 535 12G, and a Remi 870 20G both to rifled(possibly scoped) slug guns. When I was lookin around for used barrels on the interwebs, I kept seeing these more expensive options for...

      Anybody ever "clean" their 22LR ammo? (Remi Golden Bullets)

      Hey All, So I got a new to me/used Beretta Neos, and now that 22LR seems to be coming back, I decided to crack open a Remington Bucket of Bullets I've been sitting on... So, I really wanted to wring this gun out, and maybe see how many rounds it'd take to get it to gunk up and fail. So, I...
