    After a 60 year drought lake trout are getting it on in the Great Lakes

    That’s great news. Speaking of Lakers, my buddy and I went out on Kensico reservoir the other day for a couple hours. Trolling lead-core line & Flutter spoons. Only got one laker, but it was a rare calm day on Kensico, so I’ll take that as a win.

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Can’t speak from experience, cause mines still in the box, unused. But I watched many YouTube videos and read a lot of reviews, and for the money these things look to be pretty impressive.

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Just my .02 cents, but if youre gonna get into PCP airguns, I would not waste time and money with anything rated for CO2. Especially if you have a 25 cal gun, that goes trough a lot more air than a 177 or 22. I could be wrong, but most CO2 tanks (big and small) were rated to only 3000psi. Go...

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    $230 w/free shipping. Service parts are all over the place. It's about 14" x 16". Tiny. These are all the rage now, in the PCP world. No Scuba or SCBA/Scott bottles. (Although it will fill one in under half hour.). Fill the rife/pistol directly from this tiny compressor. I got one for...

    For Glock people - Glock 44?

    For what its worth, the conversion kits slides are all aluminum and built very well, and come with adjustable sights already on them. I shoot Bianchi plates at my local club and its about perfect for that. Lotta fun.

    For Glock people - Glock 44?

    Can't help with the Glock 44, but I will add that I run a Adv. Arms .22 conversion kit on my Gen 3 G17 and I love it. Installs in like 10 seconds. Comes with two mags, adjustable sights and a hard carrying case. Digests just about any 22 LR I can find.

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Mildots work great on hunting air rifles. I have a 25 cal PCP that routinely whacks pigeons and starlings at 100 yards without much difficulty. This is where the mildot reticle shines. Sighted in for a 40yard zero, I know I need to go up 2.5 dots @ 100. Also helps doping the wind. Have you...

    Cool knife blade deployment system.

    Yes thats pretty neat. Ingenious, actually...Only possible thing negative I see (aside from 2-hand deployment and retraction)..at first glance is when in the open/locked position, and grasping it normally, it looks like one slip forward and the underside of the index finger will slide right...

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Great! Now you'll have a never ending supply. I think the one in the above pics is like 3 or 4 years old at least. New layer of duct tape now and then to cover pellet holes. Gotta be a zillion pellets in there.

    Here's my backstop. (Actually its still on the original mulch, which looks brand new, but the box is really banged up from use, and I gotta make a new one...) It's a Kitty litter box, w/carry handle, filled with rubber mulch from Home Depot. Screwed a clamp on it to hold targets. Google...

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Another attribute of the UTG scopes is that they focus down to like 3 or 5 yards. I’ve had some issues with some scopes on my air guns, where that’s an issue. Not a dealbreaker, just very annoying. For the money, you can’t beat a UTG bug buster. They show up used on eBay for like 75 bucks.

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    Could very well be. I also read that scope reticle failure was due to the reticle ring only being locked into place with one locking ring, and not properly "sandwiched " between two locking rings and factory tightened properly. Who knows...maybe I just got lucky. You can really tame the shot...

    So, I bought an air rifle....

    I own several R9's and an R10, some other springers, too.. Thousands of pellets through them and never ruined a scope. Even the cheapies. To Mosinitis' point , this "ruining" scopes business was probably a thing back with the older 3/4" tubed Crosman & Daisy air rifle scopes, or glued...

    Pretty cool how these are coming out from MW. Haven't read up on these so forgive my ignorance..Where the original parts replaced at a small unit level? With that rear sight, you'd think the armorer would have given it the full parts upgrade. My CMP Winchester from the first run they did...

    The M1 Garand's Mysterious 7th Round Stoppage

    Great article. Thanks for posting. I have to dig out my red Duff book, but I think this problem was mitigated by late 1940/early 1941. I have a Dec 1941 M1 (low 400k serial range) and the tooling had been changed by then. No sign of the nub repair on my rifle.

    City of Kingston to hold gun buy-back

    The black thumbhole-stocked rifle , sitting two above the AR is a Gamo break barrel pellet rifle. Check the position of the zip-tie. Right where the barrel breaks. Probably the deadly .177 caliber... Pheww. I'm sure glad that now it wont fall into the wrong hands...now I can sleep.

    ATN scopes

    I have the 3x12 version ,( used, off EBay,) of the ATN and it was flawless. Came with the most updated software, and I have some awesome videos from it. For me, this type of NV does way more than I needed it to do. (Wind speed, rangerfinder, gps, saved multiple zeros, etc). Just shot rats at...

    Cleaning out my fishing gear and these are either duplicates, or no longer needed. FYI, the plugs with no hooks on them are teasers. When salt water fly fishing you'd throw one of these out, topwater, and provoke a strike, then use the fly. Anyway, they're just regular lures with the hooks...

    Glock 17 or Canik TP9 SFL?

    Another big plus for the Glock is the widespread availability of 22 conversion kits. These days I throw my AA conversion kit on my G17 and have a ball shooting steel plates at the range. Comes with adjustable sights, and loading tool. Might take 15 seconds to install it.

    Glock 17 or Canik TP9 SFL?

    Bought a new G17 a few years ago and no regrets. Eats everything I feed it. Opted for a GEN 3 due to the finger grooves, parts availability and track record. Finger grooves on my GEN 3 G19 need to be tweaked a bit (trigger guard mod helped greatly) but the G 17 fits me perfectly. Looking...

    Why are AR lowers now showing up as "RESTRICTED IN YOUR STATE"?

    Palmetto has been not selling lowers to us for about a year now. After my last order from them, and me finding out their new policy, I wrote them a nasty-gram, basically telling them they should be ashamed they caved in and are just fueling anti 2A behavior, while other companies promote...

    Need opinion from revolver guys on cylinder slop

    Kev74 is onto something. Sounds like the cylinder notches were either machined incorrectly or have worn. It’s not so much the depth of the notches, it’s the edges must remain sharp. If they’re rounded off it’s a problem. I believe in the 1990s, Smith and Wesson offered an enhanced package on...
