Wow. Thank you for the information. No wonder no one can get it right. What a convoluted mess. I know my pistol was manufactured in 1982 right before RPB changed hands but I had no idea they lost their manufacturing FFL to the ATF. I thought they were just required to change the design to closed...

Hello all. I have recently purchased a MAC-10, in 45 ACP caliber that fires from the open bolt. I am trying to classify exactly what I have and what the markings mean. At the rear of the receiver is a snake logo in the shape of an S with a target center, which I am almost sure is the Cobray...

I have photos but I can't seem to post them. The files are JPEG and less than 2 mb each but when I upload I get an error message that the files are too large.

Hey everyone, I need a little help with my savage sporter 23a. I took it down for cleaning and after cleaning all the parts I went to put it back together and I have run into a snag. The rear magazine catch/ejector part is a strange looking combo part. The hook shaped ejector part fits into the...

These also fit F. illi Pietta/Bingham/Puma PPS/50 22 rifles. They require a wedge type adapter while the Thompsons use the T type adapter.

Alright gentlemen, I need all you savage 1899/99 experts to help me identify my rifles. I have come to the conclusion that they are both 1899 savages but after reading for hours on the internet I just am not sure. So here goes; Rifle #1: 22 savage high power caliber serial number 2069XX, made...

Aarond, this was exactly my thinking. The little revolver has a very robust frame and I am sure the hinge would take the pressure but the cylinder walls are very thin. Your lesson will most likely save me a lot of remorse. Thanks for sharing.

Would these be safe? There is no specification on the powder charge. I also found RWS bb caps with an 18 grain conical bullet. They are packed 150 to a tin and cost less. Again I found no specifications on the powder charge or velocity. Any thoughts?

Hello everyone. I have recently purchased a S&W Model 1 in 22 short. It is in fine condition with no cracks in the hinge and a fairly tight lock up with the hammer cocked and when dropped. The serial number range of 106xxx makes it a second issue produced around 1866. I wish to fire this...

Hello everyone. I need some help identifying an old USMC marked tool and I figured there are plenty of Marines running this site that could help out. At first I thought it was same type of small hand saw but the tip is all wrong and teeth are not sharp. The overall length of the tool is 6 3/4...

Thank you You guys are the best! I found a parts diagram on Numrich and it is definitely a Marlin A1 with an early type one safety. Numrich actually has the parts I need to repair this old girl an get her firing again. I can't thank you guys enough.

Hello, I need help identifying an old Marlin rifle I recently purchased. It is a 22 long rifle semi-auto that is magazine fed. The only marking are on the top of the barrel stamped "The Marlin Firearms Corporation New Haven Conn. U.S.A - patented" and the side of the barrel at the receiver...

Hello everyone, I am hoping you guys can help me with a firearm the I recently picked up. It is a skeleton .22 single shot rifle. The only marking on the rifle that I can find is "Firearms International" and a serial number "B353**". It is in good condition (I would rate it 85%). I cannot...

I have a very old Iver Johnson Safety Automatic revolver chambered in 32 S&W. The revolver was made in 1897. The revolver is in excellent condition with good timing and lock up and the hinge is tight. I wish to shoot this revolver on a very limited basis (no more than 10 rounds a year). Most...

Ehanger, You are going to be just fine. You haven't broken any laws. Your parents may have to put up with some interviews to reassure everyone but it shouldn't be an issue. Listen to these guys and talk with your parents before posting again. We are all with you. Good luck.

Rossi, Taurus and High Point. Can't really stand pimp guns of any sort.

Thanks all for the advise. It looks like I might not be reloading this one. I purchased several boxes of S&B 5.6x52R and they are fairly reasonable. I would have to reload several hundred just to make the die purchase. I guess I will sit back and watch the used market and hope for the best.

I have reloaded and shot the 219 zipper for years. It is one of my favorite rounds and has provided hours of enjoyment. Just this week I aquired a savage 99F chambered for 22 savage high power. I need some information on this cartridge so please post what you know. I have every speer...

I have a 452 in 17 Mach II. It is really fun to shoot and is a blast to blow up water filled cans at 100 yards. I haven't found any practical use for this gun yet. Maybe I can develop a taste for pigeon.

My first 22 rifle that I purchased was a 552 speedmaster. It still looks as new as the day I bought it. It has never jammed on me but I keep it clean. I think it is one of the best in its price range.
