Drove bear away,found some food he dropped, followed him away some distance(like an idiot) with only an axe until I heard him breaking off some heavy sticks,I turned chicken and made my back to camp clearing.Aprox. two minutes later he stood up on hind legs exactly where I came out to clearing.Questions,was he hunting me at that point?Was he just curious at my macho stupidity? By the way he was taller than the young trees of aprox.six feet.

Today I bought my first firearm: a Glock 19. It came in a plastic box that the dealer called "tupperware." I asked him if the gun was brand new and he told me that it was. He explained that they send these guns in these cases when they are sending them a significant amount of them.

I immediately took it to the range and 100 rounds went through with no problem. One of the other shooters asked me where I got the gun from and for how much, and when I told him where I got it, he told me to check the gun out as they had a shady reputation.

I called Glock to see what they could tell me about the specific weapon. They told me they couldn't tell me who the gun was sent to, but that the gun was made in 2000. He went on to hint that the gun may have been a rebuilt police pistol, but that it was not uncommon to see a weapon sit around for years before being bought. But I don't believe a Glock 19 would sit around for 6 years in a high traffic area like this.

More to follow...

Answers is a great service,
Anyone know of a similar service that is dedicated to firearms Q&A? Only a small percentage of these questions deal with guns and shooting sports!

I have opportunity to hunt with a mossberg 930
3-inch slug.

The problem is I have a choice of a rifled 18" or 24" barrel. What are the true differences between the two barrels as far as velocity and accuracy? NOT just opinion please.

I want to also use this shotgun as home protection and the fact that it is rifled barrel is not a problem for home defense, the pattern does not matter when im shooting 10 feet.

I understand it is a weird question put can you guys help.

Well I guess i just want opinions, on which to get.

I currently live on a fairly large lake with alot of watersports, skiing boating fishing etc. and also have a pontoon boat which is one of the slowest on the lake. I see folks on jet skiis zoomin by and i get a little jealous.

Also there are woods all around with plenty of off road trails for a 4 wheeler atv, which is also a alot of fun. I want both but not possible right now, i think i can afford a new toy to play with and wonder what everyone thinks pros cons of both? which would you choose..Let me know what you think please i cant decide

I am currently stationed in Germany and am looking at purchasing a 7mm rifle. Over here tho, they ALWAYS use the second set of numbers, example 8x57IS. Since there is a variety of 7mms, I am looking for the most popular in the US. Is it 7x64, 7x62, etc.

Thanks

I have a 2 year old remington 870 super mag (has that black finish). I gets pretty hard use, however I've been good about cleaning it right away after use. I once noticed a small bit of rust on the barrell. That night I rubed a bunch of oil on, than used a towel to scrub it off and it went away. Through time that small batch grows and grows. Now about 50% of the barrel will have rust on it (noticed this tonight, about 3 hours after a rain hunt).
Any recommendations on what I should do?

A friend bought a .300 WSM, He really likes it.
Everything I read is good,the ballastic charts are impressive, so I am thinking of buying a couple different calibers in WSM's. Has anyone heard anything negative about the WSM's or had a bad experience?

I started liking this pistol. But I only own the airsoft replica.

Someday, I will save enough money to buy a real one ( I will go for the .40 s&w USP).

Can you share your real-life shooting experiences with the USP?

Is the gun accurate enough? Reliable?

What are the likes and the dislikes you experienced? And most importantly, what caliber is yours?
