So I'm at my local gun store and I come across what the owner says is a German G43 sporterized and chambered in 7.62x39, $300. Seems really really strange, was wondering if any of you guys could shed some light on it? The tag on it said the make was AA, model was 44. Not sure what that means. I...

Heard mixed reviews about these. Got an RFB and need some mags for it. Have they fixed them?

Got to buy my dream gun yesterday. One of the perks of finally living in Utah, even if its only temporarily, over CA! I'd been trying to find an RFB since I got out here, but all the ones listed online seemed to be scams. (Seriously-Armslist is awful, never trust it!). Then, I got a call from a...

Just picked up a new RFB Gen 2 with six mags for 1000 OTD. Amazing what deals you can find sometimes. Any of you guys with these rifles use scopes? I'm planning on using it for pig and possibly deer hunting. I'm looking for a good, compact scope with magnification above 8x, probably in the 2-10...

I remember reading all about how Century's guns were crap two years ago (the ones they built, not the ones they just import), particularly their HK/Cetme clones and FALs. Now, I'm kind of seeing a lot of newer and much nicer guns they're putting out, in gun stores and in reviews people have...

I've been looking for a new hunting rifle to take to college. Heading to Westminster in Utah, so it'll be in 30-06 to hunt deer, antelope, and maybe Elk. Up until now I've just used my dad's old old 700 in .243, or his father's old old old model 94 30-30 and Model 70 .270. Great rifles! Right...

Hey guys, I'm getting a VEPR 54r 20.5 inch V2 that I plan to set up for long distance shooting. I've got a Black Horse Arsenal adjustable SVD stock and I have ordered very sturdy one-piece mount from NPZ Optics, and I'm now looking for a good scope to put on the rifle. I'm hoping to shoot out...

As title says, looking for some bullets to work up a hunting load with for a Finnish M39.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a scope with a 32mm objective lens, finger-adjustable turrets, and ideally some type of mil-dot/BDC reticule. Probably in the 2-7 range, but any magnification range is OK. Haven't really found anything like this and am looking for some ideas. Thanks!

Interesting article on people trying to make firearms on 3D printers with ABS plastic. Seems like a firearm made of that wouldn't hold up, would it? http://news.yahoo.com/you-don-t-bring-a-3d-printer-to-a-gun-fight----yet.html

I've been looking for definitive information on how 7.62x54r performs from various barrel lengths for a while now. Lots of people put the caliber down for being less efficient at shorter barrel lengths than a .308 is. http://brassstacker.com/ If you look just above the picture at the center...

Hi guys, I've really been wanting to find an intermediate cartridge in a semi-auto platform capable of taking deer and other game, moderate recoil (ideally lower than a .308), and capability at longer ranges, and I think I've found it in the 6.5 Grendel. This seems like a relatively new round...

Hey guys, Got a question for some of the Mosin aficionados on here. Was playing with my M39, and noticed that engraved on the barrel were the letters AV1. Does anybody know what that means or signifies?

Got the best present for my 16th birthday! Its an unissued, antique Finnish M39 mosin Nagant. The receiver is an Izhvesk from 1896, the barrel is marked AV-1 and was made in 1968, and it is absolutely beautiful. I've got a pig hunting trip coming up in a few weeks and am hoping to get a Jmeck...

Hey guys, I've been wanting to pick up a VEPR rifle, and I'm trying to decide which one. I've kind of decided on either the 23 inch, and doing an SVD-style clone, or going with a 16 inch and using it for a brush gun. Which do you guys think would be the best option? This isn't something I would...

Happy easter guys! Got a question. If I got a pre-bent bolt body for my Mosin, would I need to re-headspace it? Not quite sure how that whole thing works.

Anybody got one of these? I've been surveying WWII bolt guns recently with the hopes of finding one to turn into a hunting rifle. I came across an ad in Shotgun News for Mitchell's Mausers with a picture of a really beautiful looking K98. How are these rifles? I'm looking for a shooter here, so...

Hi guys, Woke up and was surfing around, looking at guns instead of doing my homework as usual, and saw an interesting looking rifle. I believe its called the Gibbs Quest, and it looked just like an Enfield No. 5 Jungle Carbine but in .308, with a scope mount, and in stainless steel. I've been...

Hey guys, Saw an article about this bolt action .308 a while back and I really liked the looks. Has anybody shot/owned one of these? What would you think about using it for a multi-purpose hunting rifle and paper puncher?

Basically as the title says. I'd prefer the shorter barrel if that would not affect velocity too negatively.
