I haven’t posted in here for a little while, so here are a couple.

An original Winchester 1897, built in 1897 according to the serial number. It has had a little work done to it.

And here is a Cimarron 1866 carbine in 38spl. It has also had a little work done to it as well.

Nice shotgun and lever action!

I like the stock on the shotgun, is it the stock one or "after market"

It was refinished, shortened, and checkered when the race job was done on the rest of it.

I'm looking for a good firearm forum. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

My suggestion would be www.2AForum.com. It's a small tight knit community, I help mod there. We have some very knowledgable people.

I second http://www.ar15.com. I actually found this forum from Ar15. just be careful of general discussion on there, it can be very tempting to get involved with some moronic conversations.

GhostRyder · 08-27-2009, 06:36 PM

ar15armory.com like ar15.com but without the drama

www.glocktalk.com

www.10mmtalk.com

Those are some of my favorites--ar15armory being my #1

Just cleaned 4 of my pistols today... man they were dirty.

Wolfgang · 09-01-2009, 09:41 AM

Has anyone ever used the Extreme Shock Air Freedom round? Just bought some for my carry weapon. Im fairly impressed with the demonstrations ive seen so far.

reason for buying houses her are close together and over penetration is a big issue.

That stuff is pure crap. Please dispose of it now and get a real carry round. Seriously, I don't want you to lose your life due to an ineffective round.

I will get the link in just a sec.... hold on....

Any recommendations then? either 9mm or 40 S&W are my calibers. It could be worse though. I could have bought the CCI Shotshells.

I use Speer GoldDot Hollowpoints and Federal HST.

Winchester Ranger SXT is also good.

bonjing · 09-01-2009, 10:22 AM

Another vote here for the Gold Dot's and the HST, that's all I use.

Gold Dot 124+p in the 228
