Secluded, I could identify all but the one on the very far right of your first picture. What is it? Nice collection, btw. C&Rs are a blast!
Romanian Cugir .22 Single Shot
I don't have any "family" pics of my modern guns but I did take a few pictures of my C&R stuff last fall. I've aquired a few more since then.
K31's
Mosin's (ex-Dragoon, 91/30, 91/59, M44, M38)
SKS's (Yugo 59/66, Albanian, Russian)
I have bayonets for about half of my milsurps only because they came with the gun when I bought it. I don't specifically seek out the ones I don't have though. Usually I'll try them on the gun when I first get it just to see how it looks and attaches then it ends up being thrown in a old yugo...
Which .17 round are you interested in? HMR, M2 or the centerfire .17 Remington?
I have a .17 HMR bolt gun (Marlin 17VS) that is a real accurate shooter and have been thinking of building my own 10/17H2 with a barrel and bolt swap from a .22 LR 10/22.
I have never tried Armscor centerfire ammo but their .22 Mag ammo (out of my gun anyways) was very inaccurate. I was lucky to get a 3-4" group at 100 yards, often with a flyer or two mixed in. I have no problem with keeping 1"-2" groups with Win, CCI or Federal in the same gun, a Marlin 883 SS.

I'll bring the popcorn :D
I got a .22 Mag Derringer from a buddy years ago for helping him clean up his shop. Fun little flame throwing gun.
I bought a Raven 25 acp when I worked at a gunshop. I paid $30.00 OTD which ,at the time, was cost +10%. Not anything I'd rely on but it's fired a few hundred rounds w/o a...
I have one specific credit card that I use for some of my gun/accessory purchases. I have a "deal" with myself that I will pay off what ever purchase I make, no matter big or small, before I will use the card again. Most of the time I can pay it off the same billing cycle but on occassion I've...
I've only seen the 25 ACP versions of this round. I was told (by the guy at the show) that the .380 version was too powerful. I think he mentioned that it blew up a Glock once too. He did say that it would work fine in a Full sized Kimber 45 though, but you had to buy a special chamber insert...
Be aware that the Korean ammo that is coming on en-bloc clips is corrosive ammo. Make sure you clean accordingly. There is also Korean ammo that comes w/o the en-bloc clips that is non-corrosive.
I have some links to en-bloc info at home, it'll post it when I get to my home PC.
I know of two folks in the US that have them. Both had to go through some pretty elaborate import documentation and a pretty long wait. I know that one guy spent $4,000 on his. The second guy didn't mention the cost but he did mention he had to wait about 8 months to recieve it from Switzerland.
FWIW - I was once told that you cannot shoot out a .22 barrel but you can "scrub it out". Most damage to .22 barrels are caused by aggressive cleaning and metal cleaning rods scraping the interior of the chamber or the crown of the muzzle.
I clean my target .22 only when the groups start...
I managed a gunshop in CA for a while during the mid-90's. We had a few occassions where folks tried plowing cars and or trucks through the doors after close. It happened on time the day I was to take charge of one of the stores. I showed up about 7:30 to start my new position and the head of...
The Stag lowers are nice. Some folks don't care for the "deer head" logo but it doesn't matter to me. The lowers can be found online for around $89-$99 like you mentioned. I bought mine from a local gunshop owner who had them at a show. I don't mind paying a few dollars more to support him...
