    Ruger PC9 Jamming

    And if you can't figure it out before contacting them, and you need parts, it is a PCC, NOT a PC9. I wouldn't spend much time on it. Let them pay the return and get them to fix it.

    New shoulder rig for my 1911

    I've done multiple Denali chest rigs. In each case, I bought them while waiting for the equivalent Diamond D rig to arrive in the mail. In my experience and opinion, the Denali is a mediocre substitute. I found the shoulder web is so stiff on a couple of them, it would not settle down and...

    Mini-14 ammo

    I am very trained in Army ordnance. I lump 52 gr and 55 gr together as nominal 5.56 bullet weights.

    Tandemkross 10/22 Trigger

    In every case, I always replace the stock trigger group with an after market replacement, or the BX trigger from Ruger. To me it's the single best improvement on a stock 10/22. I've used JARD, Volquartsen, and Kidd triggers on many of my 10/22's with wonderful results. The only trigger I've...

    LCR .38 AIWB holster

    Good for you, finding a holster that works. Finding the correct holster, and/or convincing yourself you've found the right holster, is the biggest part of the battle of having the best carry options available. I would like to know if you still like this holster after you've used it a while...

    Mini-14 ammo

    There remains so much misinformation between the .223 and 5.56. The pressures are close enough to the same to be a non-issue. The differences are, a 5.56 chamber has a longer freebore, to allow heavier bullets with an ogive farther forward. A .223 chamber has a shorter freebore. A heavier...

    I just bought a Ruger Mark II target

    And some of us find them tolerant with most anything. My Standards and Mk's , which I've owned and shot many, have never been finicky of anything.

    GP 100 grips 70084 compact grips

    Although I do not currently own any GP100's, when I have, I preferred the compact grips. I keep saying, I have gorilla hands. Very large and meaty, but with short fingers. And for whatever reason, the compact grips best accommodate me.

    WTB WTB Blackhawks Matching UH-60 Tail Numbers

    66-00886 That was our maintenance bird. I got a lot of stick time. My maintenance pilots were great. This old H-Model was pretty decrepit. It had so much touch up paint on it, it looked camo. We were required to send it in and have it repainted. Looked like a jalopy derby car with a new...

    Bowie knive

    The brand name Western is very old. It was prolific in the sixties and seventies when I drooled over them, but they existed many decades before. In their day, in price and quality, I'd put them with Buck. I think the above one is a later model, as it has laminated scales. Everybody has...

    Ill fitting grips.

    The newer the production, the poorer the fit of the grips. And when we've discussed this, we were often scolded on this forum, for expecting too much. I will continue to disagree with giving Ruger or anybody a free pass. So when I have a new Blackhawk, Super, or Single Six with severely...

    SFAR is Junk

    I hope they get all the bugs figured out, as I want one of these. :cool: I've had a few guns go back to the mother ship, and in each case they've given me a list of parts replaced. More times than not, parts replaced on the list had nothing to do with the necessary repairs. So... I don't...

    Seeking Reload Data on using Win 296 in 223Rem

    I've used 296 for many years, only in magnum revolver cartridges. It's hard to ignite consistently, so identical replication of loading procedures is necessary. Light loads or inconsistent loads cause inconsistent results. In spite of always using a heavy bullet pull and always loading per the...
