FYI, K-Var is having a sale for 5 days. Some of the Bulgarian mags are 35% off.

I have an early 1980s Belgian Browning Hi-Power and bought a few surplus Argentine 17-round mags. After loading them to capacity, one of them split along the rear seam. I'd like to buy some of the best-made mags that will stand up to use over time. Can anyone tell me what the best and most...

I found this picture on the internet and cannot determine who the people in the picture are, or the exact model of the rifle. Does anyone know for sure? I think that is Stalin in the foreground holding an RPK, and possibly Castro in the background, but I cannot confirm this after doing a...

Hello, this is my first hand loading thread ever. I've decided I'm going to start hand loading a few calibers. I've been doing research now for two weeks and have some first questions to ask. I would really appreciate it if owners or users of this equipment responded. If you haven't used the...

What does this line mean in this story? I have never heard of such a law? Is this new? The article is basically about some miscreants who were arrested in St. Paul last week. But this charge is new to me and appears to be very ominous for several reasons. 1) There is no such thing as...

Someone mentioned this to me today, and it got me thinking. Lately quite a few people are crawling out of the woodwork and talking badly about Arsenal. I'm curious about this and would like to know a little more. I've owned two Arsenal AKMs and they are just peachy-swell rifles that I think...

If so, what rifle were you using (rifle and optics, etc), what range did you shoot, and how did it perform (group size, etc) compared to other steel-cased .223 ammo? Thanks!

I was installing Sig 551 handguards today on my Sig 556 and noticed something that did not seem right to me. I thought I would ask and see if anyone else can replicate this behavior. The bolt hold open is releasing and allowing the bolt to slam shut when I extend the stock to the fully...

My local Academy sporting goods store has a Bushmaster AR-15 just like this one for $900 + tax. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/cPath/36_787/products_id/46149 I have always been a piston-type action kind of guy. FALs, AKs, a Sig 556 and such. I have never actually never...

How do you all ship ammo? I'm having a difficult time finding a carrier that will ship ammo to some folks who bought ammo from me. I'm not a business owner. Fedex will only ship it ground if you have a Fedex account. Otherwise, Fedex will only ship it express which is cost prohibitive...

I just bought an FN PBR XP with a 20" fluted barrel from Buds Gun Shop. I searched all over the internet researching this rifle, and finally chose it over a Remington 700 and CZ 550 6.5x55. I'm planning on putting a Super Sniper 10x42 scope and Harris Bipod on it. I'll be using it to shoot...

Has anyone here had a firing pin or extractor break on an AK? If so, what kind of AK clone and how did it happen?

This story is about the current violence in Kenya, sparked by a contested election. Men armed with guns, machetes and bows and arrows are attacking unarmed villagers, sometimes burning them alive in their houses and churches. This story has a lot of first hand accounts from the innocent...

I searched in the Rifle Country forum and didn't find any topic on this. The general question is: If one is going to have a rifle on which they will depend for the long term, what are the things one should know to keep the rifle functioning, including knowing which parts are more prone to...

The Leupold VX-2 1-4x20 and the MR/T 1.5-5x20 with the illuminated reticle are two similar scopes, except in price. The VX-2 1-4 costs around $300 while the MR/T 1.5-5 costs around $850. I've narrowed down my choice for a scope on a Sig 556 rifle to these two models. My purpose will be to...

I realized recently that I probably don't understand the true meaning of what is a 1-inch group or 2-inch group, etc. For instance, I assumed that in order to have a 3-shot, 2-inch group, there would need to be 3 holes in the target that would completely fit within the circumference of a circle...

I have always wanted one of these and I just scored one from a fellow board member. It is my dream rifle. I think Dean's ability surpasses normal craftsmanship and is more like a work of art. I've never seen a hi-res pic of Dean's work on the internet before, with the exception of a website...

I ordered a converted Tromix Saiga from Correia. I'm going to put a scope on it, but I don't want too much scope on it. I'll mainly be using it at the range between 50 and 200 yards for target practice, practicing grouping on bulls. What scope would you put on it? I already own a VEPR...

Does anyone know a reputable seller who has Saiga rifles currently in stock? In stock this month (September 07)? I'm mainly looking at .308 and .223 versions. Also, does anyone know who has .308 20-round mags in stock as well? Thanks much. :-)

I'm documenting all my rifles on my website with pictures and a short description of them. I have 5 up now, and I'll eventually get 15 or so up there. Rifles are my favorite type of firearm, over handguns and shotguns. I've been collecting them for about 9 years, so I've had quite a while to...
