I have the Hi-point .380, .9mm, .40 and .45 and I really like them! As stated above they are ugly as all get up and they are very heavy. The thing is they are accurate and shoot any ammo. I fired tula steel through them with no issues! I was able to buy all four guns for the same price as a decent ....

Its so disappointing that I recently purchased 2 long rifles that I used to have., and sold years ago. A ruger 10/22 and a marlin model 60. They were both very fun little plinking rifles. So niw I decide to buy them again, and I can't find any ammo. Cabela's has Remington Golden Thunder 525 bulk bo...

After reading this I have a couple of questions that maybe a board member might know the answers to! If we use the same "bullet button" used on sporting rifles in CA, will this eliminate the detachable mag as an evil feature? How do you permanently modify a magazine so that it no longer ho...

Instead of a conversion I got a GSG 1911. Have had it for 2 years with no trouble. It is the same as the Sig 22 1911. I agree with Arby! I researched the conversion kits for my 1911's and for the price I walked out of Hoffman's with my GSG 1911 and never looked back! It has fired everything and fee...

If you buy a C&R eligible handgun on your C&R, does the State still need to be called for an authorization number? If so, how does that work when you buy them over the internet, from out of State? Thanks Jason I purchased a Nagant revolver off the net and had it shipped to me using my C&...

I saw an ad on JoeBob Outfitters for a complete polymer lower for $109.95 delivered so I had to take a chance and see what I could build! The poly lower came complete and built with the lower, parts kit, and adjustable butt stock (which I pinned) with buffer! All I had to do was snap on an upper. I ...
