    Quick Review: Zastava M77 "Battleworn"

    I recently got one of the newly imported Zastava M77 PAP in .308. I believe this is their new "Battleworn" model. There isn't much info out there on these yet. It came equipped with a slant-brake and a set of nice beech furniture modeled after the famous M76 furniture. The slant brake was...

    5th Amendment and Duty to Inform

    So I was thinking about SC's "duty to inform" statute. When stopped by police and you are carrying a firearm pursuant to state law and while in possession of a CCW permit, you must inform the officer of your armed status. How does that jive with an individual's 5th Amendment right to remain...

    1911 Slide Mass vs Recoil Spring

    I have a Wilson Combat bushing compensator on my Springfield MC Operator 1911. On occasion, when shooting remanufactured ammo, I will have a slight failure to go into battery that requires a quick bump to the rear of the slide. I have not had this issue in the past. It is rare but still has me...

    My WASR 10/63 won't group well

    I have been trying to get my AK to group. Removing the cleaning rod and slant cut muzzle brake tighten the groups considerably, but my best is still 3"x2" at 50m from a sandbag, using both irons and a red dot. Groups slightly better with the red dot. I was using Tulammo. I have no issues from...

    "Antique Firearms"

    So it is my understanding that certain weapons that meet the "antique firearms" definition in the NFA are exempt from regulation, if they utilize one of the categories of primitive ignition systems, no fixed cartridges, and were manufactured before 1898 or a replica thereof. This is why we can...

    Scored a heck of an Enfield

    Picked up this lovely No.4 MK1 today, rifling is very crisp and sharp, although the crown could use work. It's got a reproduction No.34 MK1 scope, repro cheek rest, with likewise mount. The rear sight is missing so I ordered one. Price tag was $399.

    Longest OAL Factory 9mm ammo?

    I have one of the Star Super B's that have hit the market. The magazines, designed for 9mm Largo, are too long and will often cause the first round of a fresh mag to nosedive into the feed ramp. The rest are fine, but it bothers me severely. So my question is, is anyone familiar with a very...

    Found one of these dusty old Colts sitting in the used rack in the local gun shop and I must say I was smitten by the ugly bastard. Anyone have any anecdotes or opinions on these?

    What is the least expensive A2 style AR I can get? I am considering the Model1 Sales route with a cheap lower. I'd be looking at about $650 for a working rifle.

    Sword and Pistol in Previous Conflicts

    I have heard numerous tales on the use of a sword/machete and pistol together at the same time in wars past, such as the Cavalry in the American Civil War, or by pirates in the days of flintlocks, and even up to WW2 and Vietnam by skirmisher teams in the jungles of Southeast Asia. Does anyone...

    Purposeful Tumble in an AR Pistol

    I was wondering if it was possible to recreate the "meat axe" effect from Vietnam in a close range weapon like an AR pistol. The 1-14 twist rate in the original M16, coupled with 55gr bullets, caused the rounds to wobble on their rotational axis in flight. This caused unacceptable accuracy...

    Dry-Fire Practice with Mirrors

    Anyone ever do dry-fire practice using big mirrors? I was messing around today, and I realized that a mirror provides a very realistic, moving image of an armed target, yourself! Easy and free. It is great because you can adjust the light levels in the room for various lighting conditions...
