  1. What is the oldest firearm you own.....??

    Model 95 Mauser 7 x 57. Built in 1895 Germany. 3" groups @ 100 yards.

  2. Act Mags 8 round 1911 blued magazines

    Save your self a lot of frustration & get Wilson Combat mags.

  3. 17 vs 22 mag

    Thanks all for the info, but ammo availability isn't a part of the equation. Ammo availability will come back and when it does I want the better one that fits the purpose. I'll agree that the Ruger 10-22 is probably the best but I'm wanting a bolt action. I'm leaning towards the Savage due to...

  4. 17 vs 22 mag

    I'm considering buying a new rifle in 17 or 22 magnum but in a quandary as to which to buy. The rifle will be used for target plinking and small game. Brands being considered are Marlin and Savage. Please offer your opinion.

    Which One Is Better?

    Go for the RIA. Usually better, smoother trigger and built like a tank.

  7. RIA 1911's from $329 shipped - Buds Gun Shop

    They are great guns. Hundreds of rounds thru mine w/o any problems as long as I stuck w/Wilson combat mags. It has out performed many more expensive pistols.

  8. Mil-Surplus Hunters: What are you using?

    1895 Chilean Mauser 7 x 57. Pretty close ballistics to a 30-06 w/ about 1/2 recoil. Downed deer up to 400 yards.

  9. North East GA Item Relisted! FS/FT 7mm mauser

    What brand? Are they 7 x 57 ?

    Sporterize a mosin or go with something else?

    By the time you're done w/ the Mosen you will probably have more $ wrapped up in it than if you bought Savage 110 or a Remington 700. Plus there will not be any needed machining to mount a scope. If you still want a project gun, find a model 95 or 98 Mauser.

  11. $100 Firearms?????????

    Bought a Colt Peacemaker Buntline 22/22 mag for $25.00 in 1971 from a hardware store that was ceasing to sell firearms. Still have it.

  12. 22 magnum going for 50.00 on cheaper than dirt

    Cherokee gun & Pawn had some last time I was there.

  13. Kudos to Armscor.

    I contacted Armscor's customer service via e-mail concerning failure to feed problems w/my newly acquired Rock Island Arms 1911 A-1 tactical. After a few exchanges back and forth discussing the problem, They voluntarily sent me a new factory mag (free) to try to see if mags were the problem...

  14. Joke time!!!! Gimme your best!!!

    A blond discovers her house is on fire and phones the fire department. She screams into the phone HELP, HELP, MY HOUSE IS ON FIRE. . The fireman said "please calm down mam. How do we get there." Blond....."DAH, BIG RED TRUCK".

  15. Cherokee Gun and Pawn

    Had a similar experience w/mags for my 1911. Bought 2 mags and the brand I bought wouldn't feed in my gun. Took them back & CGP exchanged for ones that worked w/no questions asked . Great place.
