There's an old family friend that lives in CA with a Tec 9 he wants to sell me. Since it's an "assault weapon," he cannot find any FFL's that will ship it to my FFL. It's maddening. He's owned the weapon since the 80's. He got is "registration" paperwork back in the 90's and yet no FFL will...

What is a good source to find fair market value for firearms? My aunt is willing to sell me a Marlin 336RC in 30-30. I want to give her a fair price, but have no idea how much it is worth.

So it seems the going rate for primers has settled at about $100/k. Does anyone think it will ever came back down? If so, the next year? 2? 3? ...

When ordering an FFL item online and choosing an FFL to ship to, is it best to notify the FFL before ordering or is it okay to just order then go talk to them. I've never ordered an FFL item online before, so... Lowers are impossible to find locally, so I'm thinking of ordering online to get a...

Got a notification of primers at Midway USA. Opened and clicked as soon as I got it...I was using my computer. The notification was 1m 33s when I clicked. Sold out before the page even opened.

This is a snapshot direct from the CCI website for small pistol primers. About $20 more than normal...and no, you cannot buy from the site. Notice it says to check your local ammo store for availability.

In my internet travels, I found some primers in stock. LG Outdoors or something like that. WTF???????

I was just in Cablela's today. I like to look in the "Library" sometimes. Well, they had a rack of 15 to 20 "Remington 870 Police Magnums" for sale. $900 each!!!!! I'm no shotgun expert, but I bought a Remington 870 Express Magnum quite a few years ago for around $350ish. Is there something...

When doing my online searches, I see that stores in Australia and Canada always seem to have primers available all the time. Why not US?

Well, that was a success. Made it to the range with my new reloading skills. Using 16.1g of W296 underneath 125g Sierra Match King HP and CCI #400 primers, I loaded up 48 rounds in 300 blackout. According to my new Lyman book, that 16.1g is light by 0.7g, but I got my load data from a...

Adding a 4th caliber to my reloading repertoire. Delving into 300 Blackout since it's so hard to find just about any caliber. Well, I got the dies (Hornady going into my Dillon press as Dillon is on back order into 2021) and quick change from Dillon. Turns out none of my powders are good for...

Gotta say, these guys did a nice job cutting the slide on my Glock 21. I put my new Holosun on and it fits perfectly. Finish is nice too. http://legion-precision.com/

I'm putting this in my Glock 21. Need a West side recommendation to mill the slide for it. They'll also get to do my Steyr M9 once it's done. Using a dovetail mount for it right now. Thanks

Anyone have a local source to by the bolt/catch for a 629-4???

I just got an 8 3/8th's in barreled model from my aunt. It was her husband's, but he passed away some time ago. This one has been sitting in her safe for the better part of 17 years. He bought it in early 1996. By the model number it was made some time between 1988 and 1990. Is there anyway...
