Two questions in this one.
I shoot ~300 - 400 rounds / week and field strip and clean following every session. How often would you detail strip and clean a 1911? The Google has found me forums stating "every 5000 rounds" to "once a year" so...what say you in this forum?
Additionally, at what...
We'll be performing a small update tomorrow morning beginning at 6AM. I don't expect more than a few minutes of downtime but I want to give everyone a heads up just in case :s0155:
Northwest Firearms will be down for scheduled maintenance Thursday, June 27th, 2019 beginning at 9PM PST. A two-hour window is allocated, though the actual downtime should be much less :)
I have a few Berettas with walnut stocks. They aren't library grade wood or anything, but I want to ensure I'm taking proper care of them. I'm ashamed to admit I've been getting the Beretta oil that the guns came with on the stocks and just ended up spreading it around. This is probably not...
My father passed away a few years ago and I inherited a miniature arsenal, guns, knives, etc. To be honest I haven't really WANTED to think about all this. I do own guns myself, but they were all purchased new, they aren't heirlooms by any stretch of the imagination.
Is there a good place I...

As some of you know, we've begun work on transitioning from our old Guide system to a brand new Reviews system. While very similar this new system is better suited to our needs. New features include advanced mapping of firearm-related resources (which I'm most excited about), better...

The site will be going down for some emergency maintenance tonight at midnight. We don't have an estimated time of completion, but we're hoping it'll be a matter of minutes versus hours. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Been thinking a lot on this recently. I have plenty of spare parts and stuff for my bicycles but almost nothing for my Kia Sportage daily driver... after a couple camping trips where I'm sure I added a few new dents to the floorboard/frame, I realize I could have been very much worse off.
What...
A portion of our network will be updated tomorrow morning at approximately 6AM. We shouldn't see any downtime during the period, but the changes may take up to 24 hours to fully propagate. After the update you may see SSL errors, which are safe to ignore. You may also need to log in again...
I believe in taking good care of what I have. When it comes to my vehicles I'm a little fanatical with maintenance, with a good grasp on how to do what and when. Even though I've been shooting for a long time, I still don't feel I've achieved this when it comes to firearms. Even worse, the more...
We will be performing server maintenance this morning at 6:15AM. Estimated downtime will be ~20 minutes.
Please be sure you aren't in the middle of a long post when this occurs, as it may be lost :s0155:
Hello! I bought an Arsenal SAM7-66 (with Arsenal quad rail) several months ago and can't seem to get the gas tube off. It's either really tight or I have to remove screws on the quad rail to get it off.
Any advice for how to get this thing off would be appreciated!
Captain, we need more RAM!
We will be upgrading both our main server and our auxillary server this evening/tomorrow morning (June 18th, 2016), with downtime expected to begin at 1AM PST. Two hours of downtime should be expected, though we should be offline for a much shorter period.
I'm happy to announce that we will be upgrading our server hardware tomorrow evening, January 29th at 11PM PST. Expected downtime is two hours, though we could be back online much sooner (~30 minutes).
We've been running up against the limitations of our hardware for a while now, unable to...
