Re: Colt is on the move

That Colt Cobra looks like something made by Taurus.
It doesn't have the smooth curvy lines original Cobra and other Colt revolvers of past had.

Re: M-1 Carbine Price From 1965

Even in the 1980's Woolworth on 163 street in North Miami Beach sold surplus rifles for low price. The sporting goods department manager was a very knowledgeable man name Bill Hill. They were selling Swedish M96 Mauser from $69 to about $100 Chilean and K98 Mauser was less...started around $59 M1 Ga...

Re: Happy New Year! Trip down memory lane Pre-Y2K Gun Culture

For me and my dad 1990's were the golden period as we like revolvers more than pistols. 1990's was when the wonder 9 pistol was the weapon of choice and anyone who carried revolver was out of touch with reality. People were selling their revolvers at give away prices to buy hi-cap 9mm pistol from Eu...

Re: Christmas present possibility,,,,,,

Yeah, I saw that too. I just wish it was the shorter 4 5/8" barrel version.
The 6" version is a little too front heavy for small shooters.

Re: Florida Doe for the Freezer....Yum

Nice! I got one last Monday at my farm. One shot from 50 yards in the morning with my AR. One shot to the brain with Speer 64gr Gold Dot and she dropped like a rock. Entered under the right eye and exited under the left ear. Entrance and exit wounds were not impressive but everything in between was ...

Re: Ruger American in 270

I have never shot the Ruger American but couple people I know who have them have all been satisfied with their rifle and couple people have told me it is very accurate compared to other similar bolt action hunting rifles. I maybe interested in a compact model in future in .223/5.56 just for fun rang...

Re: Bersa Thunder combat .380

I picked one up from a local guy for real nice price couple years ago. I shot it a lot and never had any problem with it and it's pretty accurate. I keep it in my car all the time hidden below the center consul. I liked it enough to pick up a 22lr version which I like even more and has become one of...

Re: I've got a bad feeling about this Florida election

Looks like Desantis made it by a hair with 99% of votes counted.
Scott still ahead by half of hair with 98% of votes counted.
