      Who here doesn't own an AR and why?

      I own 3 and and I wonder why. 2 have never been shot.

      CZ 452 American or a Savage 93 17hmr?

      My bad, but in my OP I said that I have never owned a .17hmr. I've always always had/have rifles and revolvers chambered in .22 mag. I meant to bring into the conversation the advantage (if any) the .17 hmr over the .22 mag. I've read a lot of pros and cons on both calibers and I don't think...

      CZ 452 American or a Savage 93 17hmr?

      Well, I'm thinking that there is a $100.00 worth of quality difference in the CZ over the Savage.

      CZ 452 American or a Savage 93 17hmr?

      I have finally decided to get into the .17 hmr game. I never owned a .17 hmr, always leaning to .22 WMR. I found a CZ 452 American (which I consider a sporter) for $489.00 and a Savage 93 with the laminated thumb hole stock and heavy stainless barrel for $390.00. Both have left hand actions...

      Would you rock this piece of INGO on your AR

      I would like one, maybe two.

      10 Shot MOA Groups

      I never put much stock in a sub moa 3 shot groups. Ok for sighting in a close range (out to 200 yds) rifle, but it does not prove the true accuracy or inaccuracy of a rifle. i prefer 5 shot groups from my old BR shooting days. So many factors go into moa or sub moa shooting. Shooter skill (...

      Remington R-51 at SHOT (Video)

      Manatee, I was thinking the same thing. Either the Remington guy has real small hands or the R-51 too large for its intended purpose. I'll stay with my M&P's.

      Is another manufacturer going to produce a .22 WMR automatic?

      Production and quantities sold are what keeps the gun manufacturers in business. If there were a huge market for .22 mag. semi-auto pistols there would be plenty of models to choose from. As far as the argument about why shoot a .22 mag. when 9 mm is just as cheap. I heard that same argument...

      Any history on these two shotguns,, Winchester 101, 37

      Back in the early 1960's I had a Model 37 12 ga. 30" full choke that kick like a mule. Used it mostly for shinning rabbits and and turkey shoots. Our turkey shoots used 5"x5" white card board with a cross in the center. The lines ran from edge to edge vertically and horizontally. One shot...

      .358 Hoosier wildcat

      What happened to the woodchucks? I was hoping to do some chuck hunting this Spring. Not trying to hijack the OP or change the subject, but this is the first reference I've read about woodchucks being extinct. I'm a newbie here in Indiana (moved here last March).

      Anyone else hate the annual Christmas letter?

      WebSnyper, in reply to your comment: "Right there with you, except that chatting up the neighbors part. You lost me with that." Talking face to face, you know, like old fashion communication. Very few people take the time to have a meaningful conversation with their neighbors-- like Hank...

      Annual Christmas Knife Give Away

      876 A very generous Christmas present.

      Anyone else hate the annual Christmas letter?

      I don't send or read Christmas letters, holiday cards, and or birthday cards I receive. Facebook is a pile of usless crap and the majority of people who are FB'ers are brain dead. I use less than 200 minutes a month on my cell phone and they are usually business calls. I converse with 4 of...

      Best AR Inventory Indy Area?

      One very important thing to consider is will who ever you buy from going to back up their product if something goes wrong. Reputable LGS will back up their products and you are dealing FTF. Online, you got to think about paying shipping back to the dealer if they will take it back. Some...

      Looking for Small 38 Special Revolver for Carry

      Realistically 1 to 7 yards. I see no sense in having adjustable sights on a CCW. A laser sight is nice to have and one was factory installed on my Bodyguard. If it had not have been, I would not spend the extra money for one.

      Looking for Small 38 Special Revolver for Carry

      I carry a S&W Bodyguard revolver as my primary pocket gun. Whatever you decide on, the important thing is to draw and shoot it until it become a comfortable extension of your hand. When you get into a situation where you need protection, thinking about handling your carry piece is the lowest...

      Indiana Hunting Rifle Cartridge Change

      I moved last May to Indiana from SW Georgia where deer have reached the predator stage and hunters have reached the dangerous stage. Fortunately anyone born after Jan. 1st, 1961 must take a hunter safety course to obtain their first hunting license. Posted below are firearms regulations for...

      The .22LR & .22WMR dilemma.

      Set up an ammo fund by putting all your pocket change in a jar or coffee can every night. Don't spend any change during the day. I wanted a S&W Model 39 back in the 70's and didn't have the spare cash to shell out at one time. In less than 6 months I saved enough pocket change to buy a like...

      Best lower reciever?

      What are some of the match quality receivers? Sorry, I posted before I read pgs. 2&3. I have 2 RRA receivers with match triggers, but I am fixing to swap them out for Geissele's.
