    Ruger Hawkey Handgun

    Isn't that like buying a Single Shot AR-15? Accuracy should be the same, just only get one shot.

    For our esteemed 1911 fanboys

    So here is the deal with Remington Handguns. I will be honest with you that I am not a fan of Remington Arms for the products they have been selling for the past 10 years. They got into dealing with Wal-Mart and had a large amount of their sales through Wal-Mart. Wal-mart is not into selling...
