    One of the few privileges we have left is where we can spend our own money. I like Davey, I like his products, have a number of them. But, I will never forgive him for jumping on the "anti" bandwagon...

    I think in this country we all agree that we don't want everyone to be able to access AR15 and Ak47 rifles, which is why we've had a firearms licencing system and why the police are supposed to be...

    It wouldn't necessarily change the cost, but the compromise then is that it may then be better for prone, rather than snap shots... A more traditional shape is a better jack-of-all-trades than a...

    a well made stock with nice palm swell and cheek rest comes up like a shotgun and is "relaxed?" to shoot, it feels like you just have to tap the trigger to go off its how my sako 75 feels when it...

    I've always thought the pistol grip was about trigger, and to a less extent recoil control but what do I know? I've used straight stock shotguns which were lovely to hold, but less accurate in my...
