I’ve been researching military weapons qualifications and have a question regarding the terminology. My questions regard what is the difference between a rifle and an auto rifle, as I have seen people from Vietnam era qualify with the M-16 and while one says rifle, the other says auto-rifle. I...

So I've been looking for the a holster for my GF's compact M&P and haven't had much luck. Cheaper than Dirt has one, and I've stumbled across only a few others. I'm trying to find a belt holster, open carry, but one that is not bulky so that after we get our CCW's it can be hidden by a coat...

So the question has been raised at my job and I need an answer. When was the first belt fed adapter made for AR pattern rifles? Google failed to provide an answer, just links to current places that sell conversion kits... Thanks all

Ok, just out of curiocity, what's the difference between these two rifles. http://www.jgsales.com/product_info.php/rifles/ak-pattern-rifles/p/romanian-psl-sporter-rifle-7-62x54r-with-4x-pso-style-scope-/cPath/209_214/products_id/4241...

So last weekend I picked up some copper solvent and gave the ol' Mosin a nice thorough cleaning. I can't remember the brand that I got, picked it up from Wal-mart, but followed the directions and it came out looking great. The bore was shinier than it's been in the year that I've owned it, so I...

This is something I asked in a thread in the general discussion part of the forum. How far does you semi-auto throw it's cases? I've got about 500 rounds through my Saiga in x39 now and I've go tto say, this thing can chuck a case! I hit a guy in the neck about 20ish feet away my last trip to...

Ok, so I'm looking to get a red dot for my Saiga rifle and it's down to these two. I can't afford a nice Aimpoint or EO Tech but I've heard good things about both of these sights and I wanted to know what you all thought. Kobra- Pros It's a true Russian Military sight Completes the...

Title says it all. I'm trying to figure out the scores for the Army's marksmanship test. Thanks!

I have no idea where I would put this thread so I'll just start here. I just got a job that is taking me from the DC area out to Louisville KY in less than a month. I'm going ot be travling light, just the cloths that I need, since my GF is gonig ot be moving out there about 2 months after I...

So my GF made a big mistake the other night, say that I cna get whatever I'd like fo rmy birthday this year since I did it up for hers. Well I want to get a can. I've read really great things about the Silencerco sparrow since I want to get it in a .22. What I wanted to ask is what pistols...

I picked up a Saiga 7.62x39 about two months ago and I love the thing. I notice when I bought it that when you pull back to charge it, the last 1/4 of the pull is kind of rough. I always thought that is was due to the design of the recoil spring assembly. Yesterday I picked it up to show my...

Well I tried the search function but in all honesty I can't go through 50+ pages to try to find the answer. What commercial round have people had the best luck with in AK platforms? I've only shot wofl black box and military classic through mine so far with ehh results. My groups were at best...

Well it looks like I am leaving Virginia in a few months and heading out to Kentucky for the foreseeable future. I saw something on the history channel yesterday about the wild hog problem that is plaguing the central states and I am looking at doing my part to help :) From what the show was...

I could really think of anyway to title this thread but I guess that is pretty close. I was just speaking with a SGM in my office and he was saying that he would really like to have an M4, a true M4. But since they are post 86 he knows that he can't buy one. So my question is this, if he...

Ok I lied. I picked up my Saiga 762x39 yesterday and I am very impressed with it. I choose this model over other since I've heard nothing but positive things about it so I figured I couldn't go wrong. So far I haven't been let down. The fit and finish is very nice, and it doesn't have the AK...

I tried the seach feature to no avail, so if this has been brought up already then I am sorry. My job is moving to Louisville KY in the next few months and I am thinking about going with them. Long and short of it, besides being a good career move, I think I'll enjoy that area much more than...

I was doing some reading yesterday and came across an old/odd ammo style. It was called pinfire. Did some research to figure out exactly how it worked and while not the most effcient way to fire ammo, it seemed fairly high tech for the era. After this I saw something about titfire and cupfire...
