    Remington takes the money from NY/Pentagon deal

    Remington would rather have private 2A ownership ES & Die than pass up the coin; http://www.wham1180.com/pages/localn...ticle=11042313 I wouldn't buy anything that had Remmy's name on it, let alone the cure for cancer from them.

    Magpul gave up the fight pretty quick...

    Over 9-pages of Magpul talk at arfcom when it was revealed that Magpul will continue to sell hi-caps to BAN STATE .gov's. Maybe they needed to raise cash for moving vans to leave CO? Or buy CO properties to build grow-houses for the weed, man... Way to support the 2A there Magpul...

    AK DRACO issue resolved?

    Yeah, I had little desire for a Draco until I snagged one to try - a real hoot to shoot. And a keeper, as I have heard Cent will no longer bother with these. And unless we can get these gun laws beat down, we may not see the Yugo versions anymore as these "AK pistols" take wicked looks to a...

    Sen Bob Casey of PA - his anti-gun auto-reply Meanwhile, my reply back to the most boring senator in the known universe after his auto-reply; Dear Mr. Casey, Thank you for the acknowledgement of our communications with your auto-reply, but I think we have a problem here - and I know...

    For those of us who don't own a semiautomatic rifle.

    Not going to speculate any return to normalcy - but if anyone thinks "we've won" and the ban won't happen is whistling thru the graveyard. I have never seen the anti's this foaming mad and determined over getting their ban passed since the 80's - and we didn't have the 'net to communicate...

    Wal-Mart adopts new ammo policy

    Gun boards can be amazing... This same topic discussed elsewhere is filled with rage at any notion that just because you are at the front of the buffet line, you can be free to pig out on all the bacon they put out. Yet here, there is a reasoned discussion that rationing the finite...

    How does a pistol grip change a rifle from sporting to a death dealing menace?

    "The theory I've been hearing is that it allows easier bump firing and shooting from the hip........" Feinswine said pretty much exactly that in her news conf when the bill was announced - to be fired rapidly from the hip. I guess she had her staff research guns on YooToob..

    Just ordered Twelve Garands from CMP: What should I expect??

    12/year limit? Yeah, you'll get a scolding for "hoarding" - at least from me. But that hoarding will only last until you throw them on gunbrokeya. I don't know *** came over CMP to allow 12 a year now, when it was once 3 a year and a promise that they were meant for personal use. They...

    Draco AK Help

    Make sure the SAFETY is not accidently riding upwards due to recoil. It only takes a rat's eyelash movement to cause issues. I have 3 Romy's that do this...

    30.06 or 308 for a Garand?

    "I am a definite Garand newbie. Was the original 30-06 Garand modified to shoot the 308 or was the receiver, etc. built from the ground up to shoot 308? " Modified by the service armories - originally for the most part for use by their marksmanship teams until the M14 was eventually used...

    What do you think the most reliable/rugged .22lr is

    Henry lever, Remmy 552 Speedmaster, SIG522. Can take any of these 3 to war.

    Do you like to buy duplicates/backups or do you like to diversify?

    Really wanted diversity - then found myself with several AKs of different origins... Then a few ARs of different origins, then several Garands. Can't bear to part with any, although I have been trying for a FTF trade of one of my AKs - SAIGA - for a Mini-14. No luck yet.

    SKS with Tapco 20 rd mags

    Supposedly the Tapco 20rd "duckbill" mags work greatest when coupled with the Tapco poly stock. Supposedly a very reliable setup.

    I want to buy an Heirloom Rifle

    I agree on the future - non-hunting - notion. I haven't hunted since I went out with my Dad in the 60's before he died. Neither I nor my grown kids have any desire to go into the woods in nasty weather amongst the trigger-happy; we enjoy hunting paper targets. That said, I would look for a...

    looking for Polish AK underfolder

    No problem. Some people over there did a couple group buys a while back. I'm not sure if there is another being planned. Nope, all done some time ago. Usual suspects are Atlantic, Classic, Centerfire, J&G. Google around. Unless you absolootly must have a Polski, consider getting a Yugo...
