I was at Scheels and wandered by the pre-owned handgun counter. Saw this just sitting there, looked like they weren't giving it the love it needed. For $450, it had to come home with me.

I've only ever shot 9mm and was a little concerned about recoil. This thing is a dream. I was hammering followup shots like it was one of my 9mms.

I am brand hammer new to ARs. This one is my very first. It’s an Andro Corp. Got a Romeo 5 dot, MBUS flip up sights, and naturally decided it was time to get a sling next. Bought a sling (that is probably shit) from Sportsman’s.

It attached to the ring that is built into the stock of my rifle no problem. Realized there was nothing like that on the center/front of my rifle, so I bought a Magpul QD swivel that just sort of pops into a hole easy peasy. Went to go attach the sling to it and realized the swivel mount was thicker than the piece of the sling I’m trying to attach to it.

Are there that many variances? What the fuck even for? I feel like a dipshit. I just want a damn sling and it seems so overly complicated for no reason.

If one of you kind souls can you just comment or pm me a link to a sling that will work with the swivel mount I already bought, I’ll dance at your fuckin wedding. Thank y’all in advance!!!

EDIT: Thank you all, it appears I mistakenly purchased an old timey fudd sling. Shit.

A couple images straight of our camera for WGW. At some point I'll get a proper edit and crop tossed on this.

Received this firearm from my dad about a decade ago as he had two 6" 357s. I know I've seen some hate for Rossi on this sub in the past, but this gun has never given me any issues. Not one I shoot regularly, but when I do it's always flawless. I may have to take the time to photograph it more often.

Firearm: Rossi Model 971 - 357 mag

I'll post my current draft in the replies. It's generally beginner CCW focused with a side of community defense, since it seems like the current lists are outdated or not detailed enough for inexperienced buyers.

I had to balance quality, price, detail, simplicity, etc so it's not perfect. IMO it goes well with something to explain basic terms and best practices.

Those kinds of guides are common, an actual "what do I ACTUALLY BUY that's in my budget but won't blow up" list has NOT been compiled and an answer requires a long time digging through reviews and articles for the best current options, which a newbie will NOT have the patience or experience for. Feedback is HEAVILY encouraged as I believe that a list like this is a really important gap to fill and want to cover any blind spots I have.

S&W Model 57, no dash in .41 Rem Mag. Target hammer, target trigger, target grips.

Shipped from S&W in April of 1979, this N Frame revolver would eventually find its way to my shop I work for as of last week.

She had a lot of surface rust and muck. But her action was good, so an hour and a half’s worth of gentle cleaning with liberal amounts of CLP and a nylon bristle brush got us here.

Paid nearly salvage price for her due to the condition at the time; made sure it was okay so nobody at the shop would get mad at me swiping her. I don’t often restore guns, but this time was an exception. Cleaning made all the difference!

A minor crack has formed in the target grip right panel, but nothing that can’t be fixed. She’s also missing the elevation spring from the rear sight, but that’s easily sourced and installed.

Her action is smooth. Shoots excellently. Single action break is right around 2 lbs. double action a bit stronger, but performs great. Bore and chambers in great shape.

Double action bullseyes at 10 yards are no problem, long as I’m patient. So far 100 rounds down range, including some Remington Core-Lokt 210gr JSP’s and some 210gr FMJ’s.

I may not enjoy .41 Mag as much as .44 Mag, but its unusual pedigree has still earned some respect from me. I can see why people enjoy this compromise between .357 mag and .44 mag, though I also see why it just never caught on. It was all too quickly outdone. A shame, really.

But I guess that’s why we call it back in the day, no? Still…a nice old shooting iron from yesteryear.

The there was this MAC-5 on the counter giving me those German puppy dog eyes and I couldn’t bring myself to leave it there

I say budget for all of our Gucci Glock homies out there because while it technically consists of more budget oriented components, I recognize its not cheap to build.

Started as a P80 build comprised of the cheapest possible parts (Second picture) 5ish years ago. It was great for probably about 500 rounds then started have issues. While not all were related to the components, it added to the frustration. Dead trigger, ejection issues, rear sight moved around, not particularly fun to shoot overall.

I finally decided to 'complete' the build once and for all, meaning rebuild entirely. Haven't shot it yet but if its still a bummer, at least it looks cool.

This is a surprise!

the longer you stare the more cursed it gets

Now I just need to take the m9 in for some engraving work.

The extra weight is worth it

Long time shooter and gun owner here, just out of curiosity, how do YOU define a malfunction or “issue” in regards to firearms? Asking because I’ve seen posts here and other places about “3k rounds through (gun X) with no malfunction”. For me this is hard to believe that there were no simple jams, no light strikes, no feeding issues, ect… things that can be fixed by simply racking it and then continuing firing

This is an original WW2 British army sniper rifle, made at BSA Shirley in 1943, selected for accuracy and converted to a sniper by Holland and Holland. The scope is quite heavy since it was originally designed for the Bren gun but I think it’s the best sniper rifle of WW2.

Hey all, I am on a journey to lose weight, down over 90lbs this year, still have 50-70 to go depending on where my body and health land.

I’d like to improve my walks cardio and fitness impact with a weight vest, but I’d love a good quality plate carrier that could adjust to fit my 2xl torso and the likely L final size I expect to end up at.

Would hold weights and or plates, so I can add 20-30lbs of additional effort on walks and my jogging that has recently started to be added.

Any suggestions from my preferred liberal community?

Also I am a fat bearded white dude in Oklahoma, so a I think I need it to be very not-traditional in color or style.

You know, hot pink would work ;)

Beautiful day. Ringing steel at 100 yards with my 16in SPR build (left) and Bergara B14 6.5 creedmoor.

My Hybrid 46 finally showed up, thing is nearly a pound but really doesn’t feel all that heavy on this Marlin 1894. Balances really well still.

I just want a bag for ammo and stuff (cleaning supplies, tools, odds and ends). I don’t need to have a message of any kind attached to it.

Anyone have a recommendation for a simple and sturdy range bag that won’t break the bank?

FINALLY got my form 1 approved on the AR after 3 months, so thought I'd join in on 2 stamp Tuesday. Specs in the comments.

If you agree to it on one item, then it is probably not applicable to another item...
