    FAL Magazines

    I'm taking possession of an R1A1 Sporter tomorrow and I'm curious who sells the best magazines, and are there any to steer clear from?

    Hungarian M44 Bolt Issue

    I recently purchased yet another Mosin carbine, a very clean Hungarian that matches all but the bolt. Bolt closes and opens, locking and unlocking just fine with a very smooth operation, however: When the bolt is in the closed/locked position, it does not seat firmly against the receiver...

    It followed me home...

    Many moons ago, I bought a S&W 15-2 off an old gentleman in my town who'd had it since before dinosaurs roamed the earth. I shot it, loved it, but it went down the sale trail, as I needed to purchase a new vehicle. Times were tough, and I nearly cried to see it go. I promised myself I'd buy...

    Buffer weight and the 300 AAC Blackout

    So, I have a quick question gents: What weight buffer should I use for a 16" Blackout upper with a pistol-length gas tube. Barrel is an ER Shaw, unsuppressed. Most of my shooting will be done with supersonics in the 110 to 125 weight range. My goal is to decelerate wear on my innards. Any...

    Questions Regarding 1911 barrel and the .45 Super

    I have kind of a lengthy post, in light of needing a short answer. I have a 6" ported barrel en route from Storm Lake in .45 ACP within the next few weeks. At least, that's what Chad at Storm Lake said. A few weeks. I'm setting up a 1911 for using .45 Super. Why? Because I can. Seriously...

    Ruger New Model BlackHawk .41 Rem. Mag: Do I Dare?

    I'm not a revolver guy. Never have been, but there's always a first. I'm going to be thinning out the herd a bit, but find its time for a wheelgun in the stable. My purpose for this thread is to get opinions from owners of the NMBH. I've heard its a strong action, as well as a good buy for...

    CZ 40 B- What's it worth?

    I have the chance at a 40b in a trade. My question is: What is fair value on one of these in great condition, like new per se? Not seeing any up-to-date valuing of these. Trade in question is for a Hi Point 995TS with Bushnell TRS25, 60 rounds of 9, in like new condition. Is it worth it? I'm...

    Replacement Sights for Yugo M57

    Was shooting my 7.62 Tok this afternoon, and the front sight went bye bye, never to be seen again. The rear is too easily drifted for my liking, but red Loctite cures that. However, I'm still sans front sight. BuyMilsurp.com is sold out of front sights. So my question is: Has anyone modified a...

    Help with SBR: Legality, Semantics, etc.

    Hey folks. I have several questions I'd like clarified by my favorite gun gurus. I've recently acquired a new, yet complete, Plum Crazy lower receiver in order to do a build. I hadn't intended to build an SBR, but it may work out that way. I'll be picking up a 7.5" AR upper in 5.56 today, and...

    What factory ammo CANT I shoot in my M38 Swede

    I fired the M38 for the first time today (heavenly) and I burned through 40 rounds of Prvi 139 gr SPs. What loads can I safely use in this action? Its 1941 dated, and flawless. It will be used at bench and deer hunting, but Id like to stock up. What say ye?

    School me on the M28 Ski Trooper Mosin Nagant

    There's one for sale/trade near me. The add reads as thus: LOCAL ONLY PLEASE, FTF. Extremely rare Finnish M28 Ski-Trooper re-arseneled and used in the "Winter War" has the "[SA]" to prove. Also has the rarer hex receiver and the rounded style rear sight that the 91/30's don't have. What adds...

    I have an idea! Help the cause with a skill I have!

    Last night, or rather, this morning, I gave away a prize in the "Trivia" thread in General Discussion. The prize is a still life painting of the Trivia winners gun of their choosing, done by me (Art Minor, Truman State University) and mailed to his home. What do you guys think about me...

    I have a problem: Impulse buying and the Shield 9mm

    I go into the LGS with daddy's little girl (my 3 year old angel) and it is packed. It's truck day, and the owner is hooping and hollering when I walk in: guns, AR and hi cap pistol mags, bullets galore. The atmosphere was insane. I'm elbow to elbow with the girl, and in the corner of my eye...

    Canik 55 Stingray C: Review and First Thoughts

    Now, pictures will follow...so anyone who doesn't know what this pistol is or looks like, for now I'd google the aforementioned pistol in brushed chrome finish. I picked this pistol up from my FFL on Tuesday, without being put on hold if you can believe that! The gun comes in a nice box...

    Canik Stingray C Grip Inquiry

    I'm looking into putting a set of VZ G10s on my new Canik Stingray, which is modeled after the P01. When choosing a frame size, "compact" fits the P01. Other owners are putting CZ factory rubber compact grips on their Caniks. What I'm confused about it the screw hole lining up if I buy...

    Canik Pistols: Who owns one?

    I, just today, purchased a Canik Stingray Compact in chrome and 9x19. I've read good things, watched videos, and it was priced right at J&G Sales. I'm a CZ fanatic, so seeing the features of this clone were impossible to pass up. Anybody else have one? I'd love to think that you venerable...

    Feg p9r

    Who owns one, what's a good price for one that has only seen rounds in the double digits, and how are they accuracy and reliability wise? I have the oppurtunity at one for $350, but may be able to get it for less.

    The 7.62x54R for hunting: I'm a believer.

    There are better rounds for hunting, this much is true depending greatly on that which one plans to hunt. There are worse as well. My hunting for the last decade is primarily predator and whitetails; that's all there is here. Either can be taken effectively with the same chambering. I've...

    Glock Gen 4s: Are there any problems?

    I'm looking into buying a pair of Gen 4 Glocks, a 19 or 26 for the Missus and a 17 for myself. I've heard tell of recoil spring problems with these. Is that still an issue? Are there any short comings I need to know about?
