    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Accuracy should not be the only yard stick you measure a 1911 by. And, is not the only thing that seperates the competitors. When we start talking "accurate as" and "reliable as"...how do you quantify that? Have the guns been tested in ransom rests under ideal conditions with match ammo...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Disagrrement amonst 1911 shooters?...that never happens. However the 1911 was designed is moot, as I'm unaware of any worthwhile drop in parts. Any 1911 with clearances so loose to make drop in parts viable, IMO, negates the best thing about a 1911. Hilton Yam & other SME have stated the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    It's been a few years since I played with my 1911's or followed them. There is a lot of good info on 10-8Performance on 1911's and choosing one. I started shooting them in 1988+/- and was taught by the original armorer to Delta, and have his personal gun in the safe. I've taken 1911 specific...

    .223 precision build questions. Help me understand.

    Just took possesion of a Win70 Coyote, the older style with the non thumbhole laminated stock. I mounted a Weaver KT15 15X scope for now, to see how it shoots. The bedding job didn't inspire a lot of confidence, but I'm no expert. Been lying awake at night thinking about a scope, not wanting...

    Rifle Scopes Vari-XIII 8.5-25X?

    Well,I "accidentally" won a bid on an older Winchester Coyote in .223, with the non thumbhole laminated stock. While discussing a scope for it with a co-worker, he offered me a Vari-XIII 8.5-25X AO scope with target turrets in PRI steel rings & sunshade. It came on a 22-250 he bought for his...

    Gunsmithing FN out of windage adjustment

    The Burris inserts can be rotated. I used them on a Savage/Anshutz 64 to correct both windage and elevation by putting them on an angle..sorta.. The guys at AO had the base off, straight edges out, etc. The holes looked straight to them..if you look down the channel of the Badger base, you...

    Any hope at all for an M1 carbine?

    A 110grn bullet at 1900fps is anemic? Perhaps, but it sounds awfully close to a .357Mag to me. FWIW, Hornady and CorBon load .30Carbine with more effective bullets then FMJ or the old school soft points. Bob

    Gunsmithing FN out of windage adjustment

    I hope this is in the right place, as it's a rifle problem and not a scope issue. Long story short, I have a 1st Gen SPR in the HS Precision stock. Had a local smith skim bed it, cut and thread the barrel, cerakote it, and bed the Badger base. It shoots pretty good as far as I can tell. I...

    Rifle Scopes 300 Blackout Handi-Rifle Scope

    After an AAC rep brought the handi rifle to a class I was attending, I bought a HR in .357mag, and sent the barrel to Accurate Ordnance. They cut and threaded it at 16", I put the Choate youth stock on it, so it's about like the .300 I've went back and forth between a Bushnell TRS25 and an...

    Maggie’s I'm having remorse - RESERVE MET on Gunbroker

    You show some people a rusty nail with that horsey on it, and they'll ask "How much?" I'm a Colt "fan", & a .40 "fan", but I'm not much of a collector. I divested myself of a few guns, including some Colt revolvers, for various reasons. The only thing different, is now I say,..."I had one of...

    Rem 504 w/Lilja barrel..reprofile?

    Thats where my buddy found instructions to adjust the trigger..he really likes the 504 trigger. In the FWIW category, I emailed Lilja.. He states the weak point of the 504 was/is extraction and thats why they quit making barrels for it. And, he did not recommend re-profiling the barrel...

    Rem 504 w/Lilja barrel..reprofile?

    Bwana, IIRC, when I first started looking, and even had bought my friends 77/22, the tacticool was not available for the 77/22, eitehr way, its' not the style I was looking for. I prefer the rimfire hunter style of the 504T. He had the VQ stock for it for a little while, it was close, but not...

    Rem 504 w/Lilja barrel..reprofile?

    justin, My 504, and I believe the one bwana has, have the laminated target style stock, made by Boyds..similiar if not the same as their rimfe hunter stock. The ammo I had issues with was Eley Tenex, Lapua, and a few other top quality brands..in fact some of the cheaper stuff, like Auto...

    Rem 504 w/Lilja barrel..reprofile?

    My friend who I bought it from, is fairly big into .22's, and used to shoot small bore silhouette...actually we're gonna hit a match this weeked I think. He's had/has a lot of different .22's, from various Annies, Ruger, CZ, Rem581's, etc. We've come to the conclusion that to get what we...

    Rem 504 w/Lilja barrel..reprofile?

    Bwana, A friend had the Lilja target taper on it, before I bought it from him and ordered the drop in Lilja, the heavier one, I forget the muzzle diameter, but it's close to an inch I think...I thought the target taper, about .650 at the muzzle, looked out of place in the target stock. A...

    Are Air rifles the pacifier or alternative to ammo availability & cost?

    Interesting thread, and you've got me thinking nad looking at some air guns. Currently I have the CMP Daisy, that actually shoot well. I only shoot it down my apt. hall..about 26 feet..due to a failed stock painting attempt it's been sitting idle. Replaced by a FWB 100...a SSP target pistol...
