I have checked out quite a few websites on the handi rifles, I have been wanting to get me one but have heard stories. I did see an article that said the .357 has just as much gap between the chamber and the lands in the .357 as does the .243. If I were you, I would save my money and spend it on som...

I think Mitt is going to get my vote. I am kind of on the outspoken side, but maybe I can explain this right. If you cast a vote for a canidate that basically has little or no chance to be elected your not throwing your vote away. However, you are taking votes from a good canidate that may not be 10...

If your smart enough to carry a big bore....
Dont be dumb enough to shoot yourself with it.
I found this on another site that I frequent. Looks to me like that might hurt a bit.
I guess at least the guy owned up to his mistake so I doubt it will happen again!

Pigs dont move alot in the day time anyways. Best place to look in the day time is in the thickest brush you can find. Best luck will be early of a morning or late evening if you cant hunt at night. Not sure where your hunting but in Texas, look for Acorns or Pecans. You will also frequently see roo...

I have an 1894 in .44 mag. I love it! It is light and handy and is dead on at 50 yrds and will keep them all in a kill zone at 100 yrds. However, .44 SAA are a little hard to find these days. Only real options are the .44 mag in a ruger BH or the original Vaquero. You might consider the .45, it will...

You might try David Carrico, he is in your neck of the woods (Edna, KS). He does good work and has good prices. I would go for a Military Style Flap hoster or his half flap design.

Immediately following the Civil War the primary lever guns around were the Spencer, 1866 and Henry Rifles. None of which are impressive when you consider the fragile actions and weak cartridges. I am sure many still depended on war surplus muskets and bp rifles and the serious frontiersmen probably ...
