If you absolutely have to see physical inventory, there's Davis Sport Shop in Sloatsburg, which is 30 or so min away. Their prices for reloading supplies vary, but I can say powder prices are high, their primer prices are insane, and their bullet prices are fair. Your best bet, by far, is to...

I can recommend the Ruger SP-101 with the 4.2" barrel. I've also played with the S&W 317, the J-Frame with a 3" barrel, and the 617, the K-Frame with the 6" barrel. There are a few advantages to those revolvers: They're cheap to shoot; They'll eat any ammo you feed them from underpowered to...

I like GarandThumb, Buffalo's Outdoors, Honest Outlaw... very surprised only one person mentioned Paul Harrell. PH does a lot of real world comparisons between cartridges, answers a lot of questions with demonstrations, and busts gun myths along the way. A lot of it depends on what kind of...

Guess I'm not buying a single round of ammo in this shit state. Enjoy losing some more tax revenue, Albany fucktards.

You also have to consider, Triple 7 is a fair bit more powerful than true black powder for a given charge volume. You might well be better off using an appropriate Springfield Trapdoor load published by Hodgdon. To be gentle, you can use a powder that maintains low PSI and doesn't send a bullet...

It's a fixed 4x, so unless you're really abusive on the thing, I think it'll probably work just fine on a hunting rifle. One consideration, throw that thing in the freezer to see how it handles hot-to-cold transitions within the return window. You don't want it to be opening day of deer season...

You couldn't get me to vote for a fucking Democrat. They're all rats, some are just more articulate rats.

Reservists tend to get paid way more than active duty troops when mobilized.

Thanks for the clarification. There are definitely already plenty of troops in Germany and Poland. Are they in Ukraine itself? I haven't heard any rumors of that from anyone I know. But then again, I imagine it would be more of an Army/AF thing than USMC. Very concerning. These fucking war pigs...

Concerning that he would mobilize reservists in support of an operation somewhere that we are not engaged in any conflict. The 3,000 aren't many reservists, but why? And a question in the same vein, how many active duty troops are deployed or are being deployed there? I suspect that if the order...

I'd bet good odds that any DACA illegal who applies to be a cop is a better American than most liberals. I wish we had an exchange program: Permanently exile an America-hating left-winger and give a productive illegal who's happy to be here a path to citizenship.

To be honest, you should try not to hit bone much with a European style chef's knife either unless you want to sharpen it often instead of occassionally hitting it with the honing steel. If you plan to cut through bone with any regularity, I definitely recommend also getting a cleaver or a...

German-made Henckels are excellent and should last a lifetime. I give my full-sized chef's knife a quick honing with the steel rod every week or twice a week depending on how much I cook, and haven't had to sharpen it yet in 8-ish years. I have a smaller, Spainish-made Henckels santoku knife...

My newest experiment with a red dot on a revolver. A cheap Bushnell TRS-25 mounted to my 7.5" Ruger SBH via a Weigatinny No Drill scope mount. I fired 36 rounds of hot .44 Special rounds (280gr RNFP-GC @1065 fps) to zero the dot and make sure everything held tight. Everything looked good, so I...

Thanks, ya learn something new every day. I knew the difference between rock coal and charcoal even though I call them both "coal" colloquially, but I always assumed those pizza ovens were charcoal ovens, not coal ovens.

Only if that coal is easy-light or has been doused in lighter fluid. Take some lump hardwood charcoal or additive-free briquets and light it in a coal chimney without using any nasty chemicals. Totally different experience.

That is something I'm considering as well. It would be a brilliant trap to get Ukraine to play their best cards hastily, then come back with a powerful counter-attack. My other suspicion is that the PMC is a mercenary company. "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet". At the end of the...

I gotta say that I disagree. I think that drawing a firearm could be an excellent way to de-escalate a situation like this. If the first guy instigated the violent threats by pulling up with the baseball bat, showing the firearm and that the defender had fire superiority defused the situation to...

Wow, this is big. Looks like Prigozhin and PMC Wagner have turned on Moscow. From Russian news sources, For a short version, Evgeniy Prigozhin accused Russian forces of intentionally shelling his men. He and many of his men pulled chocks and are marching against Moscow with their target being...

Every so often I think I want one until I weigh all the downsides. -In NY you miss out on its #1 selling point, IMO, the capacity. -Ammo is very expensive, and I don't like handloading large quantities of bottlenecked cartridges. -Without tons of ammo in every mag, it doesn't do anything...

Cancer is too good for the Bidens. May Hunter OD and his father not even recognize his degenerate son at the funeral.

Cancer is too good for them. May they die as they lived... choking on the boot they were deep-throating.

I've shot a few handguns with them. I wasn't really a fan. I wouldn't say there were any big downsides to them or any big benefits. If a target is far away, iron sights or a red dot are better as the laser dot tends to be hard to see well. If the target is up close and you aren't using sights...

Fair. Sub "moron" with "bastards", "pieces of shit", "asswipes", "motherfuckers", "cunts", or whatever more accurate expl I'm sure this bill will continue to rear its nasty head every session. Just like the ban on lead hunting ammo.

"Assault weapon ammo" ban - Senate Bill S314 https://nygunforum.com/threads/assault-weapon-ammo-ban-senate-bill-s314.58631/

So, the morons are at it again. Two Democrats cosponsored a bill that would be a virtual ban on "assault weapon" ammo limiting "assault weapon ammo" to 20 rounds per 120 days. What qualifies as "assault weapon ammo"? Beats me. They don't list which cartridges, types, or any technical details...

Love it. Great to train that skill. I definitely will be bringing snap caps to my next range session. I haven't practiced that drill live in a while now. I've always been pretty smooth and automatic about it with a rifle, but I'm a bit janky when I tap, rack, bang a handgun.

Yea, it really depends on corporate policy. Some places won't send the mags if a private, non-LEO buys it. No seller should have an issue sending it the the FFL if they buy it. That would be the trick. The FFL would buy it, receive it, then you would buy it from the FFL with limited magazines.

I'd say go explain the situation and that you want this deal because of the 6 mags (which he's charging you for transferring and limiting anyway). Worst he can say is no if it's especially inconvenient for him.

Maybe try having your FFL to order it for you. Then he can install the mag limiters and sell it to you.

The First Amendment isn't there to protect popular, accepted, polite speech/religion/journalism. That doesn't need to be protected. It protects the trolls, the bullshit religions, and the fringe journalism. The Second Amendment isn't there to protect the guns that the government/left-wing...

Some corny bastards are so detached from reality that they buy their own bullshit. It sure as hell happened a lot with martial arts before MMA came along and showed that no, the ancient art of Dragon Dick Kung Fu doesn't let a 90 lbs, 60 year old man immobilize any attacker with one touch. So...

That hipster needs to stop giving advice and go back to sipping on his Triple-hazy Extra New England IPA.

So I have a Ruger SP-101 8-shot .22 LR with a 4" barrel and like it pretty well. If trigger pull really matters a lot to you, I think S&Ws generally have better triggers out of the box. If you plan to leave it stock, I say go with the Smith. I prefer Rugers with a trigger job over S&Ws with a...

Man, of all the beautiful details, I think the fish inlaid on the hammer has to really be the cherry on top.

So recently, I was watching TV with the wife and wanted to clean my revolver. I'm not allowed to use Hoppes anywhere but the basement and Eezox bothers her if I spray it near her. Then I remembered our can of Weiman stainless appliance cleaner and thought I'd give it a shot. To my surprise, it...

That's a helluva line to cross.

It's honestly decently fast. I use the closest dipper that doesn't go over, then fill the biggest dipper and use it as a trickler. I can usually measure a charge within 1-2 seconds of my Hornady automatic dispenser and there's no warm-up or cleanup. On top of that, I find that my charges are...

I got recommended that same video last night for whatever reason. Very cool.

I mean, if you want to collect Kimber revolvers, go for it. If you want it for practical purposes, I don't think it does anything the 2" hammerless doesn't. Without adjustable sights, it's not much of a target gun, 1 extra inch of barrel is a tiny ballistic improvement in .357, the hammer just...

If you like the 2 inch with the internal hammer, you'll probably like the larger one. There isn't a huge difference between the two, honestly. The DA trigger is excellent just like on the DAO model. The larger grip and slightly more weight make full-power .357 Mag a little more comfortable to...

Now that's a nice innovation. I'll bet it would be even nicer to shoot in 6.5CM.

I believe that this is more likely to happen than that all producers convert their ops to be able to export to Cali. Prices might bump a couple cents on average nationwide, but it will be Cali that will see pork prices skyrocket.

I wouldn't write off the Glock 19. If possible, see if you can rent them at the same time. On paper, I thought the Glock 48 seemed perfecr. I have smaller hands, so I thought it would fit me better than the double-stack Glocks. Even though the G48 felt more comfortable to hold, the range told a...

You note that (a) and (b) may allow for open carry in place, and I believe that they clearly do. They say "have and possess". I think that the contrast with with (c)-(f) makes it clear that those sections only allow for concealed carry. For futher contrast, I find the language in (g) very...

Geez, Hannibal Lector, are you stockpiling fava beans and a nice chianti to go with that?

Legally, I don't know what the status is in NY, or my county specifically. Practically, I find it very likely that my license would be revoked were I to carry openly outside of a range or while in the field, hunting. If you want to do so, please have a lawyer on retainer and somewhere reliable...

No, I didn't find any way to order it direct. I got a 15 lbs bag off Amazon for $40. The 10 lbs bag was like $1 less, so I just got 15. Next time I'll just get a 50 lbs bag since it's the best value. 14/20 Mesh (#2) Corn Cob Media Abrasive, All-natural and Biodegradable (15 lbs)...

Thanks for your tips. I got a 15 lbs bag to try it out and it worked great. There's some dust, but it's nothing compared to walnut. No dusty film on to the brass. The corn cob/mineral spirits combo got the brass cleaner than any walnut/chemical combo I've tried. Half the batch was 10x fired .44...
