    Barrel preservation, keeps corroding

    Alright. I have a Century AK-74, which means corrosive milsurp 7n6 and a non-chrome barrel. I took it shooting once* and thought I'd got the bore cleaned. Then a week later I took a look down the bore and it was dark. A quarter bag of patches later (exaggeration) I thought it was cleaned back...

    M1 Garand bipod question.

    (reposted because tired to the ARF.com crowd right now) Hello all. This isn't really related to a Garand, but to a piece of Garand hardware. I have a AK-74 that I'm currently looking to put a bipod on. I like the idea of the semi-permanent bipod, but the RPK bipod looks too heavy and the UTG...

    Argument source, guns in homes/danger

    I saw a thread that showed MSNBC tossing around that 'gun in the home 43 times more likely' stuff. I know that this false, as I have seen refutation before, but I know not where to find the proof. I already have the Florida State University study on defensive gun usage...

    H&K: Because you suck even more, and now we LOATHE you.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=134-p6z-_-c (CivillianTacticalWeapons.com:Viewer Warning about UMP 45 lowers stopping ) So, Heckeler and Co-, er, Heckler and Koch, not only will they not make/import 922r compliant 'un-neutered' versions of their UMP/G36, but now they want to prohibit you from...

    Hang on...(Trijicon Reflex A2 cantilever)

    http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=526140 Post #6, second photo. I know that it's been said that the carry-handle cantilever mount for the Reflex is for fixed handles only, but looking at that close-up, it looks like there's clearance for the sharper corner of the detachable carry...

    Will the SRM-1216 be ruled a DD?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tnuWf0xP20 This looks incredibly cool. A revolving/detachable tube shotgun in semi-auto. Seems like the ultimate shotgun solution to me. Only problem is, will it be deemed to be a destructive device, or fall under rules regulating revolving-cylinder guns?

    K-Var's site hacked?

    I just tried to visit K-Var's site and AVG popped-up with an alert, something about a phishing site. Checked back to try and look at the alert again but it didn't come-up, anyone else getting strange signals from K-Var?

    Data on crimes w/NFA?

    Is there data showing how many crimes have been committed with NFA items, and what items specifically? My area of interest is in SBR/SBSs and Suppressors (Michigan will let one have a MG, AOW, or DD (inc. explosives/launchers)) [Sorry if its in the wrong thread, my question was specifically on...

    5.7x28 legality Q (not what you think)

    A thread in ARF's FN section had a bunch of different bullets shown for people who reload the 5.7x28mm caliber, and some of them look very decidedly like they would go through body armor (a solid 45grn brass slug from Barnes for example). Is it just illegal to sell armor-piercing ammunition...

    Statistics from?

    Can anybody point me towards the origin of some of the more commonly quoted statistics, especially regarding the FBI estimate of defensive actions utilizing a firearm? I'd prefer a non-NRA source as I'll be dealing with antis. Thanks.

    Bushmaster Maxi-Blaster?

    I bought the Guns&Ammo Bullpup issue, and they have several reprinted articles in it. Among them is an article from 1975 about the Bushmaster Maxi-Blaster, a development of the Air force 'Imp' survival weapon. The Maxi-Blaster was a bullpup pistol. Yes, a bullpup pistol. Firing 5.56x45mm...

    Box O' Truth .223 HP vs. 00 [I can't find]

    The impetus of the growing realization that a .223 rifle is equal or better for the purposes of home defense is an article purportedly by Box O' Truth. IIRC, it compared 40grn Hornady V-Max, 00(I think)-buck, and a few FMJ and HP pistol rounds. I am unable to locate this article on their site...

    Unknown Bulgy AK sporter on Centerfire?

    http://www.centerfiresystems.com/akagunssr85c-01.aspx I see chrome-lined barrel, a $400 price tag, and an easier 922(r) conversion than a Saiga. Now, who makes this rifle? Is it up to perceived Bulgarian quality, and is there another shoe waiting to be dropped (like with the Zastava PAP, the...

    Aftermarket barrel chroming?

    I'm wondering about the feasibility of doing such a thing, with rifles such as the Century NDS-2 and Tantal in mind, as both come with US-made non chrome-lined barrels (but what about the gas blocks/tubes?), and with corrosive surplus as low as 14 cents a round... Anyway, I have no experience...

    New Bullpup AK stock coming out

    http://cbrps.com/ Center Balance Rifle Platform Systems, producer of, among other things, a bullpup SKS stock, is coming out with a similar unit for AK-pattern rifles. Say what you will about mall-ninjas fangasming or whatnot, this is pretty cool. It looks like the quality has come-up...

    OCDO Admin vs. Helmke, Mar 11

    Newbie SBR Q

    As can be seen under my username I'm from a state that disallows SBRs. However, can a SBR be registered with ATF while having a 16" barrel, and even if it wears that 16" barrel, will the SBR'ed receiver be permitted in Michigan? Also, I assume that ATF does not require barrel length...
