Hopefully I'll be trying mine next week. I've got high hopes.

As the title says. Looking for six OEM 15/16rd mags. Must be willing to ship to Wisconsin, and take Paypal. Looking to spend $180 total.

Thanks for looking!

Firearms are one of the highest margin items to manufacture that I have knowledge of. Economy of scale with modern manufacturing techniques and they are cheap. Quite the opposite actually. The margins are thin (typically 15-30%, depending on price and quality of firearm). Ammo, accessories, volume ...

They continue to try to move in the right direction. The laws in IL are oppressive. Hopefully there will be plenty more of these types of moves to ease the restrictions. I was in IL last year and was going to buy some ammo and other sporting goods. They told me that I needed to state a game animal ...

What does the ball detent on the barrel ring have to do with the mag tube dimples? The mag tube dimples are for the magazine spring retainer which ratchets into the locking cap. When one alters or removed the dimples, the ball detent on the barrel are essential to keep the locking cap in place. In ...

Brownells sells a ball detent "re-do'er" kit...

Here's a fun followup question: How does one re-dimple the magazine tube? My 870 26" barrel (I got rid of the 20") has no ball-detent to lock the cap and requires the use of the locking cap and retainer. One buys another 870 26" barrel! They have a bucket full of them at Metro Pawn. ...

Do you plan on using the rail for anything except for added weight? If so, avoid at all costs! I purchased a 2011 this fall, and promptly found out that no lights fit it (Insight, Streamlight, Surefire)!!! My Insight WX150 works fine on mine... Either they changed the spec on the rail or the WX150 ...

The more I learn about different firearm laws here in MN, the less I like this state's firearm laws. At least getting a C&R is easy, the hard part is chopping up a nice old C&R shotgun. What about AOW's? Isn't a shotgun with no stock and shorter than 18 inch barrels considered an AOW? It's ...

On aluminum framed 1911s, I would recommend running mags that use a plastic follower instead of a metal one. There have been many reports of followers tipping forward and contacting the frame when the last round is fed. This can cause some damage to the feed ramp of an aluminum framed gun. I do thi...
