Great Gun Sites
« on: October 01, 2006, 10:32:28 PM »
When seeking information about guns, where do you look first?  And last?  In my recent renewed interest in guns, the best site for me has been:

chuckhawks.com

He has an amazing amount of articles on just about the whole spectrum of recreational firearms.  

Any other favorite sites you'd care to share with Aces High firearms enthusiasts?

I read 4 pistol reviews there, and each review there was so positive that they would be no real help in picking one.  There were some good general articles, though.

Some good ones already listed.

ar15.com (I use the IL state forum to keep up with the latest state banning efforts)

http://www.surplusrifle.com (some good articles, and OK forum before it was canned)

CSP Guntalk (excellent for US military surplus firearms - the best - , OK for the rest)

A few left out:

http://www.gunboards.com (excellent coverage of Finnish Mosin Nagants - the best - with very good coverage of most other military collectable weapons.)

http://p077.ezboard.com/bparallaxscurioandrelicfirearmsforums Very good to excellent coverage of C&R firearms -- don't ever talk about sporterizing though.

I've been addicted to http://www.rimfirecentral.com lately. I have a Savage FVSS .17HMR (it's a freakin' laser) and I pick up a 10/22 this Friday. I'm going to do a bunch of the mods on it so I can be like the cool kids. :) I have a Fajen thumbhole stock and bull barrel on order. I love rifle projects.

Also spend a lot of time browsing Surplus Rifle.
