    Making an SBR at 18

    I understand that it is legal for an 18 year old to "make" an SBR but not purchase one. What does this mean, exactly? Do I have to build the gun from the ground up, or does that just mean cutting the barrel down without help from a gunsmith? When you're talking about AR15's, could you get a...

    Arsenal SLR106CR failing to eject

    I bought a secondhand SLR106CR and shot it this weekend and I experienced two jams. Because I was low on 5.56 I only ran 60 rounds through it, but two jams out of 60 is two too many. Pictures of the jams before they were cleared. Both of the jams occurred with Bulgarian circle 10 20 round...

    Black Label Tactical?

    Has anybody ordered from blacklabeltactical.com? Everything I search on google results in some knife series made by browning. They have the best price on a 106cr I can find, but I've never even heard of their website before.

    Saiga Barrel Components (5.45 vs .223)

    Due to an unusual and obnoxious turn of events I have ended up with a spare set of front end conversion parts for a 5.45 Saiga. This includes the gas block, threaded Bulgarian front sight block, and throw lever front handguard retainer. For reference, all the components are identical to the ones...

    Vityaz at SHOT 2013?

    I've been super excited ever since plans to introduce the 9mm AK were revealed. Does Izhmash have a booth at the Shot Show and can I expect to get more news on the Vitz? How about the AK107 and 12 (also rumored for import)? Also, would the stock be taken from the Vitz and sold as a pistol, or...

    Bringing "you don't need that" closer to home

    "Well, I support the second amendment, but I really can't see why anyone would need a military weapon like that." And the rebuttal: "Well, cars kills loads more people than guns every year, should we ban them too?" I see this argument often and it never fails to agitate me. It's about as...

    Rattle can finish: Matte Gray to Semi Gloss Black?

    As my AK conversion draws closer to an end I get the freedom of looking at things like aesthetics more. As far as durability goes, it seems like the word on the street is that high temp engine paint is the way to go, so that's what I got (Rustoleum brand). It has quite a reputation for being...

    Refinishing without losing the parkerization?

    I removed the FCG on my Saiga tonight and I'm contemplating whether or not I should only paint the bare metal that was under the plate on the bottom of the receiver or if I should go all out and refinish it entirely. I'm not fond of the factory finish and I'm leaning towards a full refinish. Is...

    Saiga Import Markings and Refinishing

    I am about to begin the process of converting my Saiga 5.45. Unfortunately, I got what I am beginning to consider a "bad egg" from the Saiga line, that is to say, I am one of the unlucky persons that got a rifle with the original importer markings not only removed but completely demolished...

    Strange behavior from new T/C Encore barrel, please help

    I purchased a new .308 factory barrel from Thompson Center, outfitted it with a rock solid mount and Redfield Revolution. This is on the Pro Hunter frame, but I doubt it matters. First shots and something is obviously wrong. The extractor is skipping under the casing's rim and leaving the brass...

    Accuracy on TC barrels any good?

    I recently obtained a TC Encore in .50 bp and I'm looking to get a center fire barrel for it. It was the pro-hunter model so it will need to be one of the newer Weather Shield barrels. I'm definitely going to scope it and it will probably be in 30-06 or .308. I've heard good and bad things about...

    Parents - do your kids own guns?

    If so, what type of firearm is it and how old is the child/teenager (under 18 or experiences regarding an individual that at the time was under 18)? I'm 16, I hunt, and I have the tools for the job. They aren't my dad's; I will own them when I turn 18. I shoot on a regular basis and am...

    Anybody ever tried tannerite?

    A little pawn shop near my house is selling 1lb tannerite exploding targets now. We got three and shot two of them off at ten dollars apiece.. Pricey. Well, I say "we" but in the end I had to shoot both of them because nobody else could hit them. A few days later on thanksgiving, my cousin shot...
