I started "helping" my dad when I was about 10. Started out with a Baer progressive press for 20ga and 12ga and then started into metallics. I didn't know it then, but he was just learning as well...

While I am just as interested in remaining "true" to the original Keith design done by the man himself, I realize the difference in performance between that and most of the current versions will be...

They are one of my favorite cold-weather hot cereals. A half bowl of cereal, covered in milk, 2 minutes in the microwave, then topped with some maple syrup and I am happy. If I want them crunchier,...

Thanks for the suggestions. The newer rifle I have is a Daisy PowerLine 858 that I purchased for my son in his pre-teen years. He never really wanted it, so it has sat in my closet for a few years. ...

Looking for some suggestions. I am wanting to pick up an air powered handgun for taking care of some pesky magpies and starlings that keep harassing our outdoor pets. Needs to be neighbor friendly....

My 2 favorite pump shotguns are the Ithaca 37 and the Browning BPS. The first shotgun I ever bought was a M37 in 12ga. Loved that gun and the only issue I ever had with it was the chamber was only...
Anytime somebody says they can't decide between a 2 1/2", a 4", or a 6" barrel I just have to chuckle to myself because my ONE revolver has all 3 plus an 8" barrel. I picked up a Dan Wesson .357...
I see several recommendations to go with a 4" barrel. If you are considering taking that route, please make sure to check your state regulations for restrictions on barrel lengths. In some states,...
Getting back to the OP's original question... Which revolver do you like or would you recommend in .45 Colt? IF you can find one (and yes, that is a very big IF), I would strongly recommend you at...
I've got a blued model 15 and a stainless 744 that wouldn't even consider parting ways with for anything less than about $5k. If I ever had to liquidate my firearm collection, these would definitely...

I love the DWs. Traded into my first one, a model 15 back in '93. It came with a 6" and a 2 1/2" barrel in great condition. Traded a S&W Model 19 for it. Still have it and it is a pleasure to...

I got the same message with Chrome, but was able to work through it anyway. Kind of a hassle but works. I can see how it would drive first-time visitors away and even non-members that have visited...
I picked up my first DW back in 1993. A friend's brother was looking for a lighter double-action .357 with a 6" barrel and I had a S&W model 19 that I was not real happy with. He fell in love with...

I can agree with virtually everything said already on this thread. Which half of "southern Utah" is your friend going to be in? The eastern half has a lot more black bears than the western half and...
We can pretty safely call this the understatement of the century.
Actually, Miha has recently (within the last few months) quit his "regular" job to make molds full time. I see him cutting down his lead times a little, but because demand is so high, it would take...

Why not get the original BullPlate from Bullshop? He is now back in business and is a great member here. Great guy to do business with as well.
I picked up a stainless Monson made .44 in April for $650 out the door. It came with a 6" and an 8" barrel, both compensated, and a gun rug. It was used but in very good condition. I had been...
