Ruger's customer support is top-notch. \nThey will either stock parts themselves or be able to tell you where they distributed their spares.\nI wonder if they will replace the "PC"4 with something a little less "PC" now that the assault rifle ban has expired?\nMaybe something that will take a Sten magazine.....\nHey, I'd buy one!

i would have to say the ak/sks hands down. no matter if there is mud or water or anything. rack a round and that sob will shoot. unlike the m-16/ar-15 there prone to more jams. my romanian ak has never jammed on me that wasn't my fault. such as not loading the rounds right or having the tip not over the follower. my dpms panther has to be babied after 300 rounds.i have to clean the bolt and receiver out to clear out the build up of powder.

Ruger has one in CT. I believe, check their web site. I mean it's a professional school.

Bound's hubby here:\n\nAt the very least, you have a very historical family heirloom. By your brief description it sounds like you have an M1911 manufactured by either Colt or Springfield Armory (the military facility). It's a shame your father replaced the barrel because that would detract from it's collector's value. If the original barrel was returned with the pistol the value is not affected. \n\nI think the pistol has more sentimental value than collector's value at the moment. My recommendation would be to enjoy shooting it with normal loads (nothing exotic or high pressure) and remember your father as you shoot it. Don't sell it because it certainly has a number of stories you have been told that it will rekindle.\n\nGood luck and enjoy!

I have carried my Ruger P95 for ten years. Why would you want to carry something else? this is one of the most reliable guns made. I out shoot cops on their qualifying course with it. \nI don't know many people who can go to the range and shoot any ammo with NO problems. Dead reliable. \nI have shoot most handguns and like many, but I would never part with my Rugers. \nSometimes I carry my P85, but most of the time its my P95.

Depends on where you will be. Ohio is actually very nice. I have been to the Columbus area a few times. You would be surprised at how many large corporations have headquarters there.

The Firing Line or The High Road are good forums for general questions on darn near anything gun related.  Almost any popular brand has its own forum on top of that if you just do a quick search.

33-round pistol mags cannot be shipped to addresses in California; Hawaii; Massachusetts; New York; Toledo, Ohio; Chicago, Illinois; Cincinnati, Ohio; New Jersey; Cleveland, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Dayton, Ohio; and Maryland. \n\nMan, do some of you people just spew the first thing that comes to your mind whether you have a clue or not? I just saw an earlier question where people had voted on an answer that was wrong. If you don't know don't answer and don't vote. First they are legal second they exist without being made at home third it is legal to own magazines that say law enforcement only. I know the last one seems strange but it partly has to do with the expired awb\n\nanother place to get them is cheaperthandirt.com Boker if you mentioned that one I am sorry

Look for a shooting park in your local area.  Josephine County Sportsman Park in Oregon has lots of shooting contest.  Black powder, rifle, guns etc.  You could also join the Army.  They always want someone that can shoot.

i have a model 70, clip fed semi auto.  it was bought new in the late 70's.  so i'm guessing your gun was made in the 50's or 60's.  neither one is worth much.

I have wanted a CZ 75 stainless for years.  Excellent gun to carry, great dependability and accuracy.  Classic look, as well.  I recommend it highly.

I think you should have several. A Mossburg 590 12 guage is good. You should have a simi auto hand gun, and either an AR 15 or a AK-47.

Dad was stationed there twice when I was a kid. The folks are retired outside of Columbus, GA now. There isn't a lot to do in the imediate area. But its a nice place to head to the beach from on the weekends. Atlanta is nice if you like big southern city life. If you have been there for schools then you know all about Victory Drive. Girl friend? Yep you really need to stay off VD drive. If you like fishing and outdoors stuff its not a bad place. If you or her are party animals..... go somewhere else. I grew up in the infantry, I can tell you that you don't want to go to Polk, Irwin or Drum. Best places were Italy, <---- best post oconus,  West Point, Fort Ord (when it was open) and Fort Sam Houston, TX <--- best post conus.
