I have one. Mine was sent back to the arsenal and lost its scope, mount, and bent bolt. The receiver was plugged (welded). I paid a little extra for it hoping for the better accuracy. I have not shot it in awhile, but remember it grouping well. I ended up scout scoping it due to the heavy...

I have an old 16-gauge break barrel shotgun with bead sight. It is not worth much, but has a comfortable stock. I want to use it as a rifle since I’m not really a shotgun shooter. I’m thinking of one of the MCA, http://www.mcace.com/shotguninserts.htm, rifle inserts in 10 inches for this...

I inherited an old Stevens 16-gauge break barrel shotgun from my father. It has just the bead sight on the front. I’m not a shotgun shooter so was thinking of a rifle/pistol insert from MCA adapters, http://www.mcace.com/shotguninserts.htm. I could learn/adjust to this, but want something...

Greetings, I'm interested in weighing some commercial ammo. I'm looking for the consistency in weight. I'm thinking any bullets that are out of the normal range might be accounting for stringers I'm having. I'm thinking of the .22 and 7.62 x 39 in particular. I'm not really sure what...

Greetings, I have decided to embark on a Ruger 10/22 build. I'm starting with the stock. I want to glue three boards together, opposing the grain, to get a depth of about 2.50 inches. The starting length will be a minimum of 32". I do not have enough clamps for these. I thought I...

Greetings, Have all of the heavy barrels for the Mosin Nagant dried up? Does anyone know of anyone still selling them? I wish I had gotten one when Classic Arms had them. Thanks.

Update: First Range Report I shot the MACS conversion yesterday for the first time. I used 200 rounds of Winchester Super X Hyper Speed HP. I had strange results. I had six FTE that required a cleaning rod to extract and several jams where the shell half ejected and the new one tried to...

I just received the MACS .22 conversion after a week of anxious anticipation. Taking it out of the nicely padded case, the first thing I realized was how heavy the slide was. No wonder it calls for high velocity ammo. In the process of cleaning it, I’m finding all kinds of oil in various...

I’m a fan of single actions and the Hi-Power. I think they are safer in handling overall. I have shot the Beretta 92 a few times and came close to scoring expert with it in the AF. I have also shot the Beretta clone by Taurus. I have handled the CZ-75, but never shot it. For someone with...

I have my new rifle on order, a SIA Enfield conversion to 7.62 x 39! I plan on using only brass, reload-able , ammunition. So far I have the below listed ammo on hand. Winchester White Box Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics Prvi Partizan All are 123 grain, full metal jacket. I have several...

I used this: NOVO918F Russian Novosibirsk 9x18mak 92gr FMJ from Widener's Reloading and Shooting. I prefer FMJ for punching paper.

Hello All, I’ve had my CZ-82 since early August. I have only had the chance to shoot 100 rounds through it in two sessions. I like the gun overall. I have had two FTFs, which could have been from the Russian ammo. The real problem though is the unexplained slide locking in the forward...

All, I picked up a Parker Hale Enfield No 4 recently. I'm trying to figure out it's date of manufacture. On the receiver band between the for-end and buttstock I'm only seeing "England" stamped on it. Normally, I have see dates there. It does have the 300/600 battle sights so I'm...

ALCON, Does anyone know the math formula to calculate the front sight height needed for a Enfield No 4 sporter rifle with a 22 or 23 inch barrel? I plan on replacing the front sight hopefully with a Williams fire sight. I plan on shooting from 25 to 100 yards. Thanks to all.

Does anyone have any experience with the XS scope mount on a Enfield No 4? This is there website: http://www.xssights.com. I was thinking of this for a project I am working on for the next couple of months. Thoughts?

Greetings, I had to chirp in on this post. Everyone has missed mentioning the cosmoline that is probably still in the stock. Cosmoline is a preservative that looks like brown petroleum jelly. It was used for long time storage of weapons. Any left in the stock when cause problems. It is...

Greetings, Can anyone make a recommendation for a barrel over 20-inchs? This will be for a SIA Enfield conversion to 7.62 x 39 caliber. I will primarily be shooting in the open from 25 to 100 yards open sighted. Thank you all.

Greetings All, I have a nice gunstock blank that I would like to have cut for a Enfield rifle. I don’t want to spend over $200 for this project. I will do the final finishing, but want it fitted as mush as possible. So far, the Great American Gunstock Company, www.gunstocks.com, seems to...

ALCON, ALCON, I'm saving for a customized Special Interest Arms Enfield conversion to 7.62 x 39 rifle. I'm looking at early next year for purchase. So now, I'm dreaming of the options I want on it. Below is what I have come up with so far. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions I...

ALCON, I'm looking for a Enfield No 4 parts gun- good receiver, poor bore/stock & not pitted. This will be for a Special Interest Arms conversion early next year. Does anyone have any suggestions for good dealers to contact? I was thinking by e-mail/USPS letter. I did recently get...
