I have a kinda beatup S&W 39-2, thinking about cleaning it up. My biggest issue are this stuff on the slide: Larger version It wouldn't be so bad, but it's right on a corner. Is it even possible to fix simple like this? And by 'fix' I mean correct the cosmetics in a safe manner without...

I have a friend who's going through a rough patch; lost job, lost girl, weird family, some health issues. A few weeks ago he was desperate for money and over my SO's objections I made him a small loan, on the condition that it be repaid within a couple of weeks. Okay, it's been more than a...

Two years and change after order, my Keltec RFB has finally shown up. Here's the message my FFL left on my phone: "A miracle has happened!" He's diligently been trying to track it down, so he's either good people or glad to have me off his back :D (he's good people). The beauty part is, I...

I know a number of threads have been posted on Saiga rifles, and I've read several, but I need to validate a specific list of questions if owners/users with more experience wouldn't mind. Thanks in advance. My understanding is that Saigas are an AK platform clone/derivative, and have...

Didin't see it posted, sorry if it's a duplicate. Generates some thoughts: 1) Now you can actually practice for the zombie apocalypse. 2) Wonder if it can be setup to realistically gauge the difference between weapon types, so for instance, can it tell the diff between a shotgun pattern an a...

Now I know what I want in the family room... http://gizmodo.com/5022297/st+2-indoor-shooting-simulator-is-duck-hunt-on-steroids http://www.marksman.se/eng_st2/eng_st2.htm

I bought my Neos a couple of years ago with plans to add the carbine kit, but it's always out of stock or backordered. So I'm wondering did they ever actually produce the carbine kit? Does anyone have one? Or was the whole Neos 'modular system' just marketing hype?

So my girlsfriend's been learning to shoot. Pretty good at it, heck uncanny really since she wasscared of firearms a few months ago and now she's kinda casual about calling a shot and consistently putting a bullet within an inch of it at 10 yards. And not real sensitive about recoil either...

Up until now, when I've carried, I've carried my XD9 4". Which is fine except a bit large, heavyish, and not the most easily concealable. Which means i don't carry it. I got rid of my Bersa a while ago (nothing wrong with it, just got a good trade for something else) so at current, I don't own...

I've been arguing that premise with a friend of mine, ever since I discovered stamped AK receivers. You can buy/build a small scale CNC machine for a couple of grand these days; with a few more tools (most of which can be had from your local Harbor Freight) you can create perfectly functional...

The mag on my Ishapore has gone from dirty to filthy, and is leaving gummy streaks on the cartridge casings. Is there a simple way to clean out the mag?

Never scoped a pistol before, but I've been tinkering with the idea of buying a 7.5" barrel for my Beretta Neos and throwing on a scope for a plinking/backpack gun. I have a Burris red dot rattling around the spare/junk room that I bought for something else. But to be honest, for all the good...

http://www.salon.com/mwt/col/tenn/2005/12/12/activist/ In response to a student professor/teacher who wonders whether they should leave school to pursue full time activism columnist Cary Tennis writes: As I read this, I'm struck by: A) The totality of the separation of realities that...

So my Enfields are multiplying. I just added a .308 Ishy/Gibbs 2A1 to the family. The action isn't as smooth as my No. 4, and the trigger doesn't feel like the standard military two stage; clean break, but heavy. Anyway, the reciever looks/feels gummy. So I go to strip it; but when I bring...

I have always jokingly said I would stop buying mags when I had the ability to have 1,000 rounds loaded at any given time. But I was talking with a buddy the other day and he said he was stopping after 3 mags for his bedside gun, a Bersa .380. Having owned and liked said gun, I have to say 21...

Sportsterized No. 4 Mk. II with a Monte Carlo stock, the flip up sights, and what looks look a two groove (!) barrel, but got it for a song. What sort of accuracy should I expect from it?

Doing a bit of research, and I'm trying to figure out what the most probable gun/cartridge an American big game hunter would've chosen for an African safari a few years after the Civil War, say 1870-1880, and also what would've been some other popular choices among Europeans, esp. British. I...

With all the talk about BOBs and SHTF scenerios I started to wonder if folks here practice for those scenerios, outside of target/weapons training. I hear a lot of people talking about family members and friends that they would cooperate/coordinate with; do you practice team tactics with your...
