    Yesterday I received the new Nowlin Featherlight Match trigger I'd ordered for my Brolin Arms 1911a1

    you're going to want something that you'll enjoy and, hopefully, will become an heirloom. It's har...

    LOL! Beastmode, it's obvious that you already have a chronic case of GAS (Gun Acquisition Syndrome) that
    is going to be very, very expensive over the rest of your life. You'd best hope that you get to...

    Better than that is to take an old brush and wrap four ought steel wool around it, useing it as a brush
    with your favorite solvent. BillI do something similar to remove lead fouling when I've been sho...

    really? you need to walk 100ft to shoot? whats the distance between you and the nearest town miles wise
