Love those stalks. Looking to put one on my Marlin.wheathead said:A Ruger 10/22 for some plinking fun:
Ha. Tell me about it. I want an SR40C next, then I want to build an AR, but the next purchase is going to be a safe.bottlebomber said:Man you've got trigger fever. What you need to pick up is a Marlin 45-70
I'd never heard of them. My stepdad got them for my brother and me for Christmas. A quick look online shows them to be a nice, inexpensive, accurate little piece.HIM_Tattoos said:I'm hoping to pick one of these up shortly as well.
FastAndy said:Interesting. How long is long range? I would think that .45-70 would need a helluva arc distance. Do you reload other rounds too?
Any reason why you say that?
I've read a few negative things on them, but most are unauthenticated. Mostly it's just complaints about the trigger pull, in my eyes, any pistol with no safety and less than a 10 pound trigger pull is a safety hazard.
I picked it up last night, so far I love it, haven't fired it yet though, we'll see how that goes.
I love my Glock 32 .357 sig. I just received my 9mm conversion for it today (to use with tatical) and have an Advantage Arms .22 conversion as well.
"Get yourself a Glock, and lose that nickel-plated sissy pistol."
Amen to the Glock! I have a Glock 23 .40 cal for CC and a S&W 686 .357 mag.
starfish, if you want a nice compromise hand gun small enough for cc and a decent holster hip carry gun you might want to check out the kahr cw 9 or 40. the 9 is only 17 ounces for a reasonable cc and has a 3.75 barrel for good accuracy and as a bonus its made in the good ole USA.
I shoot a Sharps .45-70 in long range competitions, it definitly has a punch, but if you reload your own shells it pretty cost effective and you can lower the kick back. I use Goex Black Powder in my shells, lower kick but same velocity as smokeless. The only downside is you have to clean it immediatly when finished shooting.

Want to get a little. 22 for plinking for fun sometime. Love me some guns. Gonna get my CCW sometime soon but Missouri is an open carry state so I could just strap my holster on and keep it visible. Lol
usdsk8er540 said:Nice! Wish there was a lifetime ccw permit here in Missouri. We have to renew every 2 years I believe.
I think having to retest and renew is a great idea. You have to renew drivers license, why not a gun?
Given that we have the 2nd Amendment why should we have to have a permit to carry in the first place?

most states have a few minimum requirements for carry to protect us from the obvious persons society does not want to be carrying fire arms. some of the requirements in most states are age usually 21, no federal convictions. most of use can agree with these.
starrfish said:OK been searching & researching small everyday ccw at at low cost. kel-tec p-11 has risen above pf9.
trigger pull on p-11 a big 9lbs (concern how had is it?)
trigger pull on pf9 a small 5.5lbs
like I said didn't find too much difference between 2 in hand but no place to fire local before purchase.
any advise appreciated
HIM_Tattoos said:Okay I need help.
I've decided I'm buying my cm concealed carry pistol next week and am having the hardest time deciding.
My choices:
-Taurus 738
-Kel Tec PF9
-Taurus 709
I like the price of the 708, but ammos more expensive and it seems almost too small. (If you know me, you know I have a strange Napoleon Complex, and would CC a 1911 if I thought I could do so). Then there's the PF9, a bit more expensive, cheaper ammo and more stopping power, everything I've read, people love this gun.
