That is a very good possibility. Thanks for the heads up, I am going to pay special attention to that next time I take it out to the range.  :tu:

I am thinking that my finger is rubbing on the underside of the gun when the trigger is fully pressed. I guess I will just have to take my time and see exactly what the issue is. Of course, the worse time to do that is during an exciting IPSC competition.  :rofl:

I get a flyer from a hardware shop across the river on the Michigan side. If I had those kinds of prices on this side, I would have a whole lot more ammo and things that go bang.  :ahhh

Chako, are you sure your trigger finger isn't slipping up during recoil and getting pinched in the trigger recess area shown? I have had several revolvers in the past where I had to stone those edges because they were very sharp. My last Single Six was like a cheese grater it was so sharp. I'm obsessive about sharp edges on firearms.  :D

Just send them all to me SG. I will shoot them and make sure there are no issues for you.

Gee Harley, looks like the military gets to play with all the fun toys.  :D

Only feels like play until the targets start shooting back.

They are pretty fun though. Here is a picture of me shooting one of my favorites.




Light recoil, suppressed semi automatic sniper rifle. Good stuff.

I'm trying to build a solid platform of firearms based on .22lr.
So far 2x all weather Ruger 10/22s and a Ruger single six. Looks like the Marlin 15 shot model 60 in stainless will be a solid choice as will a Ruger mk 2 or 3 maybe in blued bull barrel.

Any of the Ruger MK series is a excellent choice.

My favorite carry guns:






I usually carry the 442 in the summer, and save the 26 for winter when I have an easier time concealing it.  In other words, I can more accurately defend myself in winter.  ;)

Thanks guys!  :cheers:

I need to lose a little weight around the middle so I can carry my 26 more often.  It's a sweet little gun--not that the 442 isn't, but it requires much more practice to be proficient. 

BTW, Don Hume makes a fine IWB holster, IMO.

I used to have 33 round mags for my G26 if you can imagine that. Looks ridiculous.  :D

Yeah, I have one of those too.  I carry Glock 19 mags in my BOB and use them with the 26 on occasion.  They're actually fairly comfortable to use, and balance a little better than the 33-roudner.  :P

I've never been to Canada but it seems like in the vast open area firearms of all sorts would be allowed. Things seem to be pretty calm up there as far as i can tell down here in Texas

Hey guys!

Excuse the stupid question - but I found a video on YT that is interessting at least to me - here´s the link

From the comments this kind of gun seems to be rather unique in the US. It is a combined rifle/shotgun. Here in german space such a gun would be called a Bockbüchsflinte. As it has rifled barreled and above a shotgun barrel. These are very common here and wellknown at hunters. I´m just curious if this kind of firearm is really such unique in the US?

I mean the gun shown here can be bought for about 300.00 € used. For sure not with steel shot, but lead shot. But every gun store has these lying around and mostly hunters like 'em due to their variation of caliber, wether bullet or shot.

If the barrels are above it would be called Bockbüchsflinte and if it would be side-by-side it would be called a Büchsflinte - just FYI.

It would be interessting to know.

Savage at one time offered a rifle over shotgun combo. .22LR or .22 Mag over .410 or 20 gauge. There was also a later  .30-30 or .223 over 12 gauge. They still offer a discount version as a survival gun. Combo guns have never been popular here in the States.

Thanks for the advice, ColoSwiss. Interessting ... really. I mean in Germany / german language space many hunters like 'em. For a wide range of hunting reasons. Sometimes a shotgun is needed, sometimes a bullets does the job just better. Propably the same with good ol' Drilling... but that´s  another term.

Well, I´ll go off shooting a couple of minutes. Gonna shoot the Cbrojovka Brno Semi Auto rifle in .22lr - made in the Eastern block in the 70s in Czechoslovakia - maybe it is readable on the reciever. (with one of its friends)



Brno is making mighty fine guns. Very popular among hunters here. Especially their bolt action rifles. But my .22lr. is mighty nice. It has not even one piece of plastic built into the whole gun. Everything is fine steel. Love that gun.
Im looking forward shooting it again.

Combo guns (drillings) are neat. A buddy of mine has a Springfield M6 Scout, .22 Hornet over .410.

Last weekend, I went to the range with a friend. I took along my 2 .22LR rifles. One is an all decked out Ruger 10/22, and the other is a brand new Savage Model 64 which I had bought for the girlfriend's use last year, but she never took it out. My friend was sighting in his old Cooey .22LR rifle which he had bought in the 70's. The Cooey and the model 64 are basically the same rifle. His has a beautiful wooden stock on it. Mine has the black synthetic stock. He was having some issues with his older magazines. We tried my newer ones and they appeared to fix his problem. His older ones wouldn't fit my newer gun very well although they look like the same magazines.

I fell in love with the Savage. Such a quiet and sweet shooting rifle. I do not have a scope on it yet, and am wondering if I should just leave it that way. The Savage appears to shoot nicer than the Ruger for half the price.
