    North's second term at NRA goes south.

    I get so tired of hearing "without the NRA, you'd have no gun rights." That is the kind of fear mongering that has kept them in business, and actively lobbying against gun rights for a very long time. They have supported, or endorsed almost every major piece of gun legislation to date. The...

    looking for a 22

    That's cheaper than I could buy the materials for. So it's an easy fix to make a cricket all metal (I do hope they are steel at least) and have a simple little gun I can take backpacking or hunt rabbit with. How are Chipmunk rifles different?

    How hard is it to make a metal replacement? It looks like nothing but something to grab onto.

    looking for a 22

    I have had issues with Remington/Marlin products after Marlin was bought out so I am avoiding buying anything new from either of these companies until they are sold to better management. Which is a shame because I really liked Marlins. Isn't the AR7 like 90% plastic? Like even the receiver...

    No pistols, it's a pain in the ass to go through in this state.

    looking for a 22

    An auto certainly does give you the advantage of using it as a defensive carbine. I mean, if it was all I had i'd carry a 22 pocket pistol, it'll do the job, but it wouldn't be my first choice. Out of a rifle you're basically quadrupling it's effectiveness in that role. It's not my main...

    It seems the QC isn't up to par for most companies as of late. That sounds like a problem with the semi automatics?

    looking for a 22

    I am looking for a new 22 caliber rifle. I am looking for something simple and reliable, and easy to maintain. Mostly just as a survival type of game getter. I was looking into single shot youth models for their size and weight like the Crickets and the Rascals but are these built to last as...

    Which surplus pistol?

    it really depends on the quality of the gun, im going to try to find one not imported by century so i dont have to worry about their nasty looking import marks, and if the metal isnt pitted, then i could blue or parkerize.. but if theres anything that has to be soldered up for aesthetics, then...

    Which surplus pistol?

    so then its basically a staked/peened front sight like what a lot of colts have.. some of these were also brazed'soldered inside the joint, so yeah, it may take some heat to get off.. do you know how thick the slide itself from the top to the inside underneath the front sight?

    Which surplus pistol?

    ooh.. i wonder if i could do a bobbed grip on the i'll have to look into that more.. the photos of the front sights i seen that looked to be soldered or glued in, i dont know which star model the pictures were of exactly.. it could have been the full size B and the BM being integral to the...

    Which surplus pistol?

    does anyone know how the front sight on the BM is attached?.. from photos it looks like its slotted and possibly silver soldered or brazed into place and then filed down to adjust elevation while the rear is dovetailed in and drifted to adjust windage.. although nobody makes a set of night...

    Which surplus pistol?

    the star hammer isnt all that complex, it wouldnt be hard to transfer the shape of to a piece of annealed 4140, shape it with files, dremel, and a bench grinder till you get it to fit and work the way you want it to and heat treat it.. it'd be a fun DIY project that would also eliminate the...

    Which surplus pistol?

    im not too concerned about grips, or even finish, those can be improved upon later.. and instead of bobbing the hammer to deal with hammer bite, i could just manufacture a new hammer for it in the colt commander style

    Which surplus pistol?

    ive actually been having a hard time finding spare CZ50 or CZ70 mags.. surplus BM mags are fairly easy to find.. and i'd imagine its not that hard to find a magazine spring to fit them either if they need it
