We just got done checking the OAL for my dad's Enfield 2A, and I'm still a bit blown away. We used the 'measure from bolt face, then from tip of bullet pressed against throat' method to figure it out, and the numbers we got were pretty strange. Like, 3/32nds of an inch longer than the max OAL...

Ace Hardware in Lynden is like a box o chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. Saturday's special was a Peruvian mauser, modelo 1935. All matching numbers, and from the '.30' stamp on the receiver bridge, chambered in .30-06 (previously 7.65 mauser). No import marks. It was...

AIM's Superior Grade Finnish M39 rifles were simply too much for me to pass up. After a bit of hemming and hawing, I finally ponied up the $300+ they were asking to have a little piece of pre-WWII history sent to the FFL of my choice. A few weeks passed (damned UPS and damned FFL), and it was...

A couple days ago my dad and I were looking for a new .22 at a local gunshop when something caught my eye. Long story short, we came home with a heavily sporterised Remington-made M91 mosin-nagant rifle. The stock was cut back (though modified nicely), a leather butt-pad of sorts added to...
