So then it would look like a dull stainless,it wont actually effect the hardness of the metal although(asking)not stating.

Now thats funny but true right there.:D

Recently bought 2 boxes of Golden Saber at $ 31.99 a box of 25,so I would say thats a pretty reasonable price.By the time a person finds the ammo of choice and pays shipping(sometimes as much as another box of ammo).

Hey fellas,dont know if any of you have run into a problem with Rugers finish on their stainless 10/22.I went to clean it today for the first time since I bought it over a year ago,so I stripped it down past the stock,took the bolt,trigger assembly and charge handle out of the receiver and promptly soaked it with Hoppes NO 9,upon this I noticed the(what seemed to be a Duracoat finish) inside the receiver peeling.To make a long story short it was all peeling,so I stripped all the finish off,which was not very hard to do I might add.Well now I have what looks to be a real stainless finish on this rifle.Now I know that the receiver is actually a alloy,so what I am wondering is will it hurt to leave a finish off the metal.It actually looks really good after I polished it a bit with a 3M Scotchbrite pad.Let me know what you guys think(Will it hurt or not)I am guessing no.Pics follow

The middle knife in the picture is a Kershaw Leek G10 it has what they call S30V stainless steel,it was shaving sharp right out of the box.I use it at work for cutting carboard and other types of material.So far I havent had to sharpen the blade and it still remains very sharp.As for resharpening I guess I will have to wait and see how hard the steel is to rehone.Its been a very good all around knife,but a little expensive.And the knife is made in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA(YEAYEA)

Nice looking knives,one question,are the blades damascus steel.

yeh,500 bucks buys a lot of ammo and a couple of concealable holsters.

Kershaws are definately some well made knives,I have a Kershaw Leek G10 thats shaving sharp,assisted opening and all.nice knife.

I have a Nikon Prostaff 4X32 on my Mini 14,when I was shopping for a decently clear scope I compared a couple that I could grope.To me the Nikons seem so much clearer to my eyesight,that even compared to a Leaupold at more than double the cost.I think Nikon scopes are pretty good quality for the money.

A big welcome,I too spend a lot of my days off at Range USA.I would almost rather be their than anywhere else.Too many guns and not enough money.

Ill start with the Taurus PT1911AR,has a lot of the features from the factory that others charge extra for,also has a good trigger right from the factory. The RIA has a few features also that come standard on the tactical models,such as Novak style low profile sights,good trigger pull,commander hammer,slightly beveled mag well and a beavertail grip safety to mention a few.Both the Taurus and RIA are less expensive for the features. Then we could move into the Springfield loaded category that has all the goodies from the factory-hence the loaded term.Runs usually in the $850.00 range. After this price range you could probably find just about anything a person would want from a 1911 inbetween $850.00 and $1200.00 like one of these Or this OF COARSE THIS IS JUST MY OPINION(DONT TRY THIS A HOME)

I owned my first 10/22 when I turned 16,which was awhile back.Since then I have had 3 or 4 other 10/22's.They have always been reliable and found at a decent price.If you ever want to add some goodies to the rifle there are countless amounts of accessories to be had for the Ruger. I am a Ruger rifle fan

I use Fiochhi 230gr Extrema in my .45acp.Also 158gr Extrema in my .357 Mag.I have read somewhere that testing on the Hornady XTP bullet was very favorable with good penetration and expansion was also good.I know in my 45,s it seems pretty potent.

Nice looking Kimbers,I wasnt a big fan of the magwells until I got a Kimber TLE/RL II on a trade with one installed already,to make a long story shorter I liked it so much I installed a Kimber Magwell on my RIA CS-Tactical.It works pretty decent.Adds a little more grip on the officers size frame.

Colt revolvers are of some of the finest crafted wheel guns that anyone has ever made.If you really look at the fitment of the sideplate and related parts you can barely define the seams where they are machined.Nice pistol.

Quite correct,Sig.357 is a necked down .40 S&W,completely different.

I recently picked up a Taurus M627 Tracker in .357 Mag,38 special shoots absolutely great in this piece,puts them all in the 3 inch black circle at 30 foot.Its a lot friendlier to fire 38's and a lot cheaper also.pistol ran right at $500.00 new with 4 inch ported barrel,and Yes the porting does make an incredible difference.

Yup,I gotta agree the red dot sights are great for 50 something year old eyes,this is the target from my initial sighting

Thats a good pick for SD round,Big lead,big hole.

Like the RIA,What color is the Duracoat.

I believe either you could get a set from MIL-TAC Knives and Tools for about $65.00 if I am not mistaken.Springer is using the same G10 grips from the factory on their pistols.

A person always appreciates fine looking 1911's,a couple of nice ones there.

What type of grips are you looking for,I may have a set of Wicked Grips that I would sell.If interested give me a PM,I could send you a picture.I also have purchaeed some nice Dymonwood grips from Raasco,they are very reasonable and shipping times are about a week.It all depends on the kind of grips your interested in,there are a big bunch of manufacturers.From rubber,metal,wood,ebony,you name it they make them.I also have G10 grips on my EMP that are pretty aggressive in the palm,stick real nice they do. G10 Dymondwood Raasco Kimber Laminate Cocobolo Cross Canon by Springfield More Dymondwood on a Taurus PT1911 And last but not least Pachmeyer Signatures in an officers size grip
