This is SB 1076, the impending ban. Nevermind, this bill is old and dead. Thank you GlowinPontiac for the correction. Still, assume the new bill will be similar. http://www.cga.ct.gov/2013/TOB/S/2013SB-01076-R00-SB.htm Pray for us.

These are from a while ago, just got around to uploading them on Photobucket. Taken with an iPhone 4, midday, overcast sky. Any and all feedback on the photos or rifle appreciated! 1942 M91/30, set it up with a reproduction PU scope from Accumounts. I refinished the stock myself- it was...

Hey guys, I'm new to reloading. Just got equipment yesterday, actually. So far everything is straightforward. I decapped 35 pieces of 7.62x54r brass this morning, but now I've possibly got a little issue. I got an ultrasonic case cleaner to eliminate the possibility of lead-contaminated dust...

AIM Surplus has Molot bakelite 45rd RPK-74 magazines for $50! http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=MAK74R45&name=Surplus+AK-74+5.45x39+45rd+Magazine&groupid=15 I just ordered myself one. :D Just letting you guys know, seeing as these mags are pretty freakin' rare nowadays. I've...

Today's 9/19, and I'm officially designating it 9x19 Parabellum day! In celebration, let's see those 9mms! :D All are welcome- handguns, carbines, SMGs, anything!

I think this is the right place for this, seeing as the forum doesn't have a "cartridge research" section... I was given a couple of these cartridges by a friend that picked them up at a flea market. I have NO idea what they are. They're a bit... odd. They're a straight-walled cartridge, look...

I've got a few relatives and their friends visiting from Japan for a little while, and today we hit the clay field for a little fun. Nothing complicated, just some informal shooting with a hand thrower and one of those cheap spring-loaded pull-string throwers. They've never shot before (I don't...

Hey, guys. I don't post in this part of the forum too much. I've got relatives visiting from Japan for a month or so, just picked them up from the airport last night. My uncle brought me a little gift, thought I'd share some pics with everyone. It's a Spyderco Spin with etched scales and a...

I guess last range trip my dad forgot to load a small black bag into one of the cars... all eight of my AK-74 magazines were in there. Three Circle 10, two Circle 21, a Circle 25 and two Izhevsk plums. Totaling up current values of -74 mags, the cost to replace them would be $330+ BEFORE...

Hey guys, went over to my friend's house and fired off a little cannon I picked up a while ago. Took some pics and video, video didn't come out so good. Here's the pics! It's .30 caliber, takes a few grains of Pyrodex and fires pretty much anything that fits in the barrel- we shot some #8...

According to an e-mail from NAGR, Obama lifted the import ban on over 84,000 Garands from Korea. Just thought I'd let y'all know!

How important is the quality of a scope base? Not talking rings, but the rail/mounting area that the rings attach to. I'm considering replacing the stock Weaver bases on my Savage 93 with a one-piece Picatinny rail from EGW, but don't know if it's worth the money.

This knife belonged to my grandfather, it's an old Case hunting knife. I tried to find information about it a while back, but I'm having trouble figuring out what exactly it is. If anyone has any information on the knife, age, rarity, collectibility, value, etc., I'd be very thankful. I just...

For any Savage rimfire rifle with an Accutrigger- I discovered this while doing a little dry-fire practice, and it really lowers pull weight quite a lot... This is the Accutrigger blade in the cocked-and-ready position. What we need to do is pull a little bit on the very tip of...

No, it doesn't exist (as far as I know). But theoretically, were one to redesign and manufacture a Street Sweeper in .410, wouldn't it be a Title I firearm seeing as the 12ga was classified a DD technically because of bore size? A .410 Saiga is probably infinitely more practical, but a Cobray...

I really like puukko-style knives. I have no idea why. I also find them to be very useful and easy to handle. It's been a while since I added a new knife, so I thought I'd look for a puukko that's a little nicer and more traditional looking than my Mora. I have nothing against the Mora, it's a...

New, used, factory, custom, obvious flaw or mysterious and inexplicable problem.... What's the most horribly inaccurate rifle you've ever had the misfortune to shoot and why was it so bad?

:D I thought these came out great, so I decided to share. Sharing is caring. ;) 1956 vintage, 28" barrel choked full, unmodified from factory. Made shiny with Simichrome Polish (this stuff is AMAZING). Taken with an iPhone, of all things. I give permission to use the...

Would a 6.5-20 Viper be too much scope for a .17HMR Savage? Gonna start saving up for my first quality scope and I've heard great things about Vortex. I'm thinking either the Viper or a 3-9x40 Zeiss Conquest, though the Zeiss optics don't have adjustable objectives until you get to the...

I've got two scopes available for use on my Savage .17HMR, a Bushnell 3-9x32 and a Leapers 4x32 AO. I've got the Bushnell on there right now and it's okay, but it has parallax issues and I honestly have no idea where the parallax is set at the factory. The adjustable objective on the Leapers is...
