      Anyone own an M15?

      I don't think this rifle was ever actually used after testing or in civilian hands. There was a later variant of the standard M14 that took the place of this rifle noted as the M14E2. Good Summary on the M14 is located here: M14 rifle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

      Remington 1187 barrel question

      I have been down this road with the 11-87. The light contour barrel is not made for the heavier "hunting" loads. The gas ports in the bottom of the barrel let too much gas pass back to work the action. It will fire, but be hard on the action. The slug/deer barrels have smaller ports to work...

      Marion County to destroy weapons.

      I can remember that in the late 80s the Marion County police used to have an annual auction to reduce the backlog of guns that had been confiscated after the legal proceedings were complete. All you needed was your carry permit to bid. About 70% was cheap and broken junk, some was in pretty...

      Motorcylce riders need an opinion on this bike.

      I would take a very close look at the bike. The ads comment "Complete Bodyworks set" is usually a sign that the bike has been down. It's a $3500 bike in mint condition. Handling on the TLs is not bad, but they are a little porky in the weight section. The seating position is not too severe...

      Taurus Warranty/Repair on revolver?

      Give them a call and explain the situation. I purchased a used model 92 that had poor accuracy, sent it in and it came back with a new barrel and the inside of the action was spotless. They stand behind there products much better than others.

      metal shavings??

      I guess I would look at the piece you found and determine if it is steel from the pistol, or a shaving of brass or lead from a round that maybe hung a little as it was being loaded. I have an older 22 that I occasionally find very small pieces of lead that have been shaved off when the slide...

      $800 on a scope

      So long as you are keeping your options open take a look at the IOR Valdada line of scopes. I have an older 6X fixed model that has great clarity and it it built like a tank. If you shop around you can get the scopes for quite a bit off of the MSRP. Good luck in the search. Valdada Optics...

      .308 WIN Century Arms R1A1

      Where is your gas adjustment nut currently set? It sounds as if it is slightly short stroking, which could be rectified by a click or two on the gas adjustment nut right behind your front site. A little more gas pressure will push the bolt back faster and it will return with more force.

      Walther WA-2000

      Last one I saw for sale was in 300 win mag. Bidding stopped at around $11,000 but the reserve was not met.

      Shipping a long gun within Indiana

      You are correct. You can legally ship the rifle to another person in the state. If the rifle is in your C&R record you would need to record the information in your log. If it is not in your C&R book, then there is no recording required for the transaction. It would be safe do ask for a...

      Beretta 87T

      Well if you are local to central Indiana, the Gander Mountain in Castleon had an older model 320 in the used section a couple of months ago. You could call them to see if it is still there. Another option is finding a local FFL and going through gunbroker.com. I have had pretty good results...

      Beretta 87T

      Where in the state are you located? If in Central Indiana I would contact the Indiana Gun Club 317-485-6540. They have a pretty good selection of new and used shotguns. As a side note, what were you asking for the 87T?

      Black Poweder Percussion Caps Question

      I have a CVA Hawken style rifle that I purchased used and never shot, so I go to the store to purchase the basic supplies. I did some initial research online and the entire process seems pretty straight forward except for the type of cap. I saw four different types of caps - 209, #10, #11 and...

      How many MK II Shooter here

      It's funny but my old mark II still gets taken to the range as much as anything I own. It has seen thousands of rounds and still produced very good groups after 20 years. Last summer I noticed that the blue finish was completely gone on the front and back strap. So off to the store I went in...
