I picked up another Sharps rifle, I really like it! Anyone have any experience with Armi-Sport?

I think what I might do is.... I want use a scope to find a good load for the rifle, and then do what was suggested about the scope base holes. I will probably go ahead and keep the upper wooden guard off so I can enjoy those beutiful lines on that barrel contour. I would love to rework that...

So.... Scope it or put the peep back on ????

I did some trading with Dad a couple of weeks ago. I ended up with a Remington 1903A3 that had been sporterized. I would have probably just put the old military stocks on it, but, it had been drilled and taped for mounting a scope. I was taking it apart to look at some stuff and to make sure...

I had a Chilean Mauser, I traded it off, biggest mistake I ever made. I have only ever seen one, which was mine. My buddy found out about how uncommon they are and wishes he would have bought it from me instead of me trading it off. Mine was also chambered in .308. I would really consider...

last gun I got? I really thought Dad was going to get one, and I was along for the ride. Turned out, I traded 2 guns I just liked, for one I have been wanting for a long time.

I wanna know more about your ORF reciever. I picked up a Golani a few weeks ago, it runs fine, I am more worried about reciever not being properly heat treated. I really like it, and am very pleased with it. I just dont want to have problems later down the road. My serial number starts GAL03###...

Being kind of a hoarder, I save all my reusable brass, unless someone is looking for something I have and I don't use, then I freely give it away. I have saved .270 brass because I used to have one and I have a buddy who has one now. I am wanting I trim the case down and resize it, or is there...

So, what is going on with the serial numbers and stamps I hear so much about. I am wondering if I have a bad rifle now. I got a "F" stamp underneath the reciever next to mag well. My serial number starts with a GAL. Is this like a death warrant for the rifle or is there too much hype going around?

I got my Tapco mags in the other day, and they fit awsome!!! I had bought 2 of the steel mags I have been seeing around, I didn't see any Israeli markings or IMI marked on them, I wished I knew that before, they are junk. I too wanna get some wooden stocks for my Golani.

I recently sacraficed one of my favorite rifles. I sold my Remington 700 sps Varmint that I had tricked out. I used the money to buy my wife some new kitchen flooring. I did end up with a Golani Galil though. I bought 2 extra mags for it, and the were junk. They look like the Israeli mag that...

100 yards.

Went to the range today, despite the 10-12 mph winds. I wanted to shoot my rifles, and test a handload. The first one is a group out of my .308. and the second is a recipe I am going to use for my .243.

I went to Iowa the last part of January, was helping a friend out with some home improvements. We did a quick trade, I ended up with a like-new Sigma. My friend is a collector mainly, and had not even fired this one. I took it home and fired it first chance I got. It would feed, fire, eject, but...
