I had some of Springfield's night sights installed on my SA-35 a while back and finally got 'er out to the range this weeks. The first four rounds were wa-a-y far to the left! I think I figured out why: Mike

Dang, now I'm feeling like I bought a piece of junk this week: Mike

The BHSS guys know their stuff! They made my SA-35 run flawlessly. Mike

Christmas saw a new set of grips for my Colt Gold Cup: They're made from mammoth ivory that's around 10,000 years old. Mike

I just turned one down for $799. Mike

You gentlemen might like to know Pvt. Teahan rests at the American Cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, Normandy, France with the those who we know as the greatest of "The Greatest Generation." Mike

Pvt. Martin Teahan:
