    Copper filings on brake

    I just found some sort of copper filings or shavings on the brake of my AK-74. It's not fouling, but actual particles of copper that I can wipe off with my finger. Is this normal?

    It's probably nothing, right? (2-day-and-counting NICS delay)

    No , not in Mass. I was just trying to make point about how many of me there are around (Lots of Irish-Americans in Mass.)

    I've been delayed for a transfer and have been scatting gold bricks. Have no idea, but here are my theI've been delayed for a transfer and have been scatting gold bricks. Have little idea why, but here are my theories, some involving reasons I may actually be prohibited and some involving...

    Atlantic house-brand rifles.

    For them that don't know, Atlantic is not just retailing anymore--they're now building some rifles from parts and selling those. I've been thinking about buying one of their AK-74s and need to know if they're any good. Any one know anything about them?

    Copper solvent: is it really necessary every time?

    Just cleaned my rifle bore with Break Free and am feeling lazy. I really don't want to screw around with the Butch's now and get the copper out like I usually do because, like I said, I'm feeling lazy and also, I don't want to stink up my apartment with that stuff right now. Also, I really...

    20 gauge pistol grip recoil

    I know that the recoil in a 12 gauge pistil grip is monstrous but what about on a 20 gauge? Would it be too much for, say a seven or eight year old boy? I have a nephew who's really really into guns right now, and I want to buy him one, preferably something tacticool but affordable. I was...

    What is this stuff on my patch?

    Primer sealant. Dingdingdingdingding! We have a winner! I was shooting a lot of the cheap-ass wolf with the red sealant. I bet that's it. Thanks for your help in solving this mystery, all!

    What is this stuff on my patch?

    What kind of solvent are you using? Butch's bore shine What did the OTHER patches look like ? Like they always do: the early ones had black staining, indicating carbon fouling, then they started coming out blue, indicating copper fouling. Could your maroon color be really blue...

    What is this stuff on my patch?

    Maroon spots. Was cleaning my rifle today after leaving it to sit around dirty for about a month and one patch came out with these weird maroon-colored spots. I don't know if it's dislodged copper fouling or rust. I doubt it's rust because I only shoot non-corrosive ammo, have a chrome lined...

    Please don't lynch me for starting another AK vs. AR thread, but...

    ...this is very interesting. It's a video showing the rested accuracy of the AK74 vs. the rested accuracy of AR15. Turns out that in the accuracy department the AR is neither as good, nor the AK as bad, as the AR fan-boys claim. You'll get about 2 MOA out of a decent quality AR and about 3...

    SCAR 16: overpriced?

    I'm considering the purchase of a 5.56mm assault-style rifle and have been looking at the SCAR 16. From what I've heard, they're fine weapons, but man, are they expensive. Are they really worth what they're charging for them? Impact guns has them listed for about $2500, which is $500 more than...

    922r Compliance question

    Does the U.S. parts requirement apply to all rifles manufactured or imported after 1989, or just those built on imported receivers? The reason I ask is that I'm considering having a Galil built on a U.S.-made CNC warrior receiver and need to know if I can just use the Israeli parts kits they...

    Sold on Ruger

    Update: Finally got down to the range this morning to test her out and she ran like a champ. I put a hundred rounds of hydra-shok down range without a single hiccup. As far as accuracy is concerned, this gun isn't a tack driver, but it's combat accurate and can easily hold minute of bad guy at...

    Sold on Ruger

    Well, I've been carrying it everywhere I go for about five years, so it feels old to me. I have a Speed Six, too. It's my favorite handgun. :D My first automatic pistol was a P-85. It was well-used when I bought it and looked like it had been through hell and high water, but it never...

    Sold on Ruger

    LOL, I knew someone would ask that. I was cleaning the gun on the balcony outside the front door of my apartment because I didn't want to dirty up my apartment. If I'm going to do a real thorough cleaning, I'll clear off the kitchen table and put newspapers down on it and clean inside, but...

    Sold on Ruger

    I recently accidentally dropped the slide of my old, beat-to-$h1t LCP off a second story balcony onto the concrete walk below and damaged it so that it couldn't fit back on the frame. I sent the gun in to Ruger asking if there was anything they could do to fix it, and telling them that if they...
