    What influenced you to purchase your first Springfield product?

    Mine was an XD 45 tactical that I purchased somewhere in the latter part of the 90's. What convinced me was the Guns and Ammo article on the 20,000 round torture test.

    Suggests banning 9mm weapons

    Had a long chat with a fairly liberal friend yesterday about this. I asked for his opinions and he asked for mine. We kept it very civil. The one question I ask anyone who brings up banning all guns or imposing more gun laws is this: "How would that have prevented the most recent tragedy?" They...

    Has anyone done dealings on the Springfield Forum classifieds?

    Didn't know such a thing existed. Where is this place?

    Best .357 Magnum Revolver Buyer’s Guide (2022)

    I've never shot anything smoother or more comfortable than the Ruger GP100. Best tree-fiddy-sebn on the market.

    Funny and Not so Funny Gun GIFs

    I used to participate in the Guns and Ammo forum in the old days of the interwebs. One of the members told a story about how he was out shooting prairie dogs for some ranchers in Colorado one day. Since he was in the middle of nowhere, he always took a bucket to take care of business, should the...

    Hard Cast Bullets Through A Glock?

    I've been shooting RNFP lead projectiles through my G29 for years now, but it's a Gen 4. No idea what manufacturing differences might be, but I'm also not shooting wadcutters. They seem to work just fine.

    Decisions....

    I'd go with the Ronin simply because it's 10mm.

    Shooting and Long Fingernails

    Call me crazy, but I have found that when I let my fingernails get too long, it causes me to cut myself on the range. Just the fact that I'm gripping something so darn tight and that I have both hands engaged and touching each other, means that I have to keep my fingernails short. And not just...

    How far would you go for your pet?

    While I like the dog we purchased for my children, I have consistently informed my kids that I will not shell out more than $1,000 for his emergency care, should something nasty happen. Not an animal hater at all, but the day old age makes him crap all over himself or the house will be his last...

    Recommended Ammo

    Killer has great advice. Like a reloader would do, just pick several brands that aren't too pricey and shoot them. Whichever is most accurate, buy more. A reloader might take a single bullet and pair it with 10 different powder charges and keep the one that is most accurate, then accurize even...

    Do Bullet Grains Refer to Gunpowder?

    Could you imagine a 300 grain 45-70 cartridge somehow stuffed with 300 grains of gunpowder? I know it's impossible, but dang, that'd be a missile in anyone's book.

    King of the Lever-Action Rifles: The Winchester 1895

    I gotta tell ya, I've never really liked the look of the Winchester 1895. Just not aesthetically pleasing to my eye. Now, the Marlin 1895, that's another story. Love that gun. The Winchester 1895 gives me a sensation similar to the one when I look at a Wildey pistol. Just ugly as sin.

    Biden Expected To Release Rule On Ghost Guns In Days

    Is it just me? I never heard the phrase "ghost gun" until Biden took office. I've been involved with guns since I was 8 years old and never heard that phrase. Did he just make it up?

    Infuriating, to say the least.

    Do Bullet Grains Refer to Gunpowder?

    I guess any reloader would know that. Thinking back to my younger days, I had no clue what "grains" were. The confusion comes because bullets AND powder weight are BOTH measured in grains. I can use a 300 grain Partition bullet in my 45-70, but the powder charge is likely to be (H4198) between...
