(I'm not sure where to put this post, but here looked as good as any place.) I have several sealed tins of ComBloc Milsurp ammo & would like to know what is in them without opening them. My research only got me so far. I do know the ammo is corrosive. My research found contradictory information...

I recently acquired an Egyptian Hakim. Yesterday at the range while firing it for the first time, the trigger wouldn't reset. If I pushed it forward a tad it was fine. I figured there was a broken trigger reset spring or some other mechanical problem & off it would go to my gunsmith. I field...

Is there a way to lighten the trigger pull of my H&K 416D (dedicated .22lr)? My `smith says the trigger mechanism isn't like the AR-15, so I can't use a drop-in unit. He tried to lighten it, but didn't have any success. This thing is very accurate, but the trigger is way too stiff. I don't...

I recently acquired a S&W model 29-3. While logging the s/n I noticed 2 different numbers in the crane. I was pretty sure that the one that was X27xx was it, but to be sure I removed the grips. X27xx seemed to be my s/n number, but I found a bunch of other markings on the frame as well. I'd...

I have a Nagant 7.62x38R "target" pistol. It appears to have been rearsenaled/reman'ed. S/A, but the cylinder turns like a D/A when not cocked, & the hammer doesn't move unless cocked. Stiff trigger on S/A, my `smith said he couldn't do much with it without affecting the hammer strike. Rear...

I have a Yugo 59/66A1 rifle in very good condition, I'm guessing (minor dings in stock, bluing worn on high spots & corners), I'll have photos of it soon, but the gun is in pretty good shape. I need to sell it & am not sure what the going price on these rifles are at the moment. Here's the rest...

I've got a S&W 12-2 4" barrel Airweight revolver. My ladyfriend likes its light weight & I'm considering giving it to her. But before I do, I'd like to know what it's worth. (she's not super hot) I haven't been able to find a comparable one for sale so I'm having a hard time figuring out its...

Does anyone know if the Heckler & Koch D145RS is as accurate as the one I shot? This thing would make 1" 20 shot groups @ 50 yrds., warm or cold. With a stiff trigger & me not being a great shooter there was one ragged hole. (the gun was scoped & rested) This thing threw NO "flyers" with the...

I have always maintained that there is no such thing as an "accidental" discharge. (in my younger days I would have argued the converse, except that such discharge did not involve a firearm.) Anyhow, a fellow at the range last year said that he has experienced a couple accidental discharges (of...

I recently purchased a Radom P-64 which I thought might make a good summertime CC piece. I installed a lighter spring to ease the D/A pull. It is not too big and the ballistic power is fair, more than a .380 but less than the 9mm Luger. I like the de-cocking mechanism as I don't care to carry...

I'm looking to buy a tool to adjust windage on the rear sight of pistols. Not any gun in particular (I have too many to get specific), but rather a tool that will work on most rear sights that are dove-tailed. The hammer & punch method works, but not that good when the boo-boo's are factored in...

Just to let you all know, the Firearm & Gun forum is not a place for free speech. Silly me, I thought it was. Seems they didn't like what I said. I'm sure there are folks here that don't either. Problem was, they couldn't catch me lying, although others on the forum routinely do. They just...

Just have to spread the word; Jerry's Tackle & Guns in Highland, IL has a pistol "expert" who is a real rocket surgeon. My S&W .32 D/A now does not work in S/A although it did before I brought it there. Says they never did work in S/A although it has a spur on the hammer & used to before he got...

I have a Smith & Wesson .32 D/A top break revolver, 4th model. My problem is when it is cocked in s/a mode, I pull the trigger and the rear (s/a) sear disengages but it hangs up and is back in d/a mode. It seems to be a common problem with this gun. I've had it apart and nothing appears to be...
