Re: Women and shooting, they'll surprise you
My wife's favorite gun that I own is my NM Blackhawk .45 Colt I just bought her a used 1100 20 gauge which she loves. She loves shooting clay pigeons, that is actually how I proposed was by taping a ring to the top of the reciever of my 870 12 ga. haha They will definately suprise you!!

Re: Chiappa 1886 .45-70
haha, I know it would have been a better investment to get a real Winchester, but I would rather shoot it and not have to cry every time I shot it out of worry that it may have lost some of its worth. Here, as promised, are the pictures of it, although it is a little late. I have also heard complain...

Re: Chiappa 1886 .45-70
I have only shot reloads with it and it was hanging up alittle. But it was worse when I was working the lever slowly to take out the brass without ejecting. But when I would cycle it fast it worked fine. I was also using untrimmed Remington brass with 405 gr rnfp bullets from Oregon trail. So a shor...

Chiappa 1886 .45-70
Hey guys. Just shot my new 86. It is gonna be a good gun. I was hitting pieces of clay pigeons at 75 yards. The sights are terrible. I am looking at the marble semi buckhorn rear with the brass/gold front. They have tons of measurements to choose from. Which do I need? Are the rear not elevation adj...

Re: Watched Pale Rider the other night
Not a huge Clint Eastwood western film fan, I like him and he is an awesome actor, I just think most of them are plotless and they make everyone that lived in the west are a bunch of wierdos, midgets (probably not politically correct haha sorry if I offend), mental issues and mentally unstable. Howe...

Re: Legacy Sports Puma 1886 .45-70
So I was looking at getting one. But they are on backorder everywhere. Is that because they just started making them, or is it because they are going to stop making them?? Also since this is the only forum I have found where someone shot one, what barrel length did you shoot? What would you recommen...
