I have always like the Broomhandle Mauser but never owned one. I did shoot a 9mm version with the big red 9 on the grips at the range one day and it was not pleasant at all. I was very surprised how...

I remember those ads and like you, didn't have money to buy one. I didn't even ask Dad because I already knew the answer. I have no idea where you would get one today and I'm not sure the average guy...

Full auto MP40...…..bb gun. Okay, not a real gun but very realistic in weight, looks, and fun to shoot. Got a bargain price on a refurb. It empties a 50 shot mag in 5 seconds or less. Everyone who...

I don't understand why some people get so nasty when it comes to these things. His gun, he can do what he wants. Why he would modify a rare and valuable 41 Johnson is anybody's guess. I don't like it...
My Dad's 1955 vintage Marlin 39. It now resides in my safe and holds many pleasant memories for me.

I don't have it yet but I just bought a Henry Small Game lever gun in 22wmr from GB. This model has a rear peep sight which I like. Never owned a Henry but have read many good reports about them.

You're welcome. I had no idea this thread would run for so long. Lots of guns being bought out there. Good to see.

Yes, NP rifles are good but they're like cars, they all do the same thing but they're all different. How long will they last?? Don't know the answer to that but if they do fail they aren't all that...

This thread is a few months old but I figured I would post my opinion on my new Hatsan 30 cal 135.
Big and heavy for sure but I knew this upfront from the feedback I've read. Built like a tank with...

Just picked up a Cimarron 1871-72 open top in 38 Special. I'm in the process of dehorning it now.
The ejector housing slot is razor sharp as is the screw head that holds the loading gate on. ...

I just acquired a High Standard R106 Sentinel from GB. My FFL holder will be delivering it later today. Looking forward to some range time with some different brands of ammo for testing and fun.
I still have a bunch of Midway headstamped 45 Colt brass that I bought years ago. Last time I shot some out of my Rossi M92 I got a few splits in the case body.
Still have some 9mm that I loaded...

Nice. 6.5x55 is one of my favorite cartridges.
Due to my new work schedule I couldn't hook up with my FFL holder until yesterday so I finally have it in hand. This gun is quite a handful and in like new condition. I tested for any cylinder play...

A new "lever" gun with lot of ammo. Nice.
Comfortable to shoot sounds good since I don't hunt and it will be a range toy. I really like the FA but didn't want to spend that much $$.
"I could have just as much fun by pounding on my knuckles with a hammer."
That line made me chuckle. I know what you mean about arthritis and pain, I'm with you there.

My hands are on the large side and I did try lowering my grip but I can't seem to shoot good unless my grip is up high.
