    Stevens Pumps

    I know next to nothing about shotguns. I was thinking of picking up a used 12 gauge pump mainly for Home Defense. I stopped by my local used gun shop. They had tons of used Mossbergs (for reasons I can not explain I just don't care for Mossbergs), Remingtons, and Winchesters. But a used...

    Availability of Springfield XD 45 Compact

    I have the XD in sub compact 9mm. A really nice, and accurate gun. Truth be told here, my local Cabelas is having a big blow out. I am trying to decide on a XD 45 compact - $439 after discount, or a Ruger SP101 357 sa/da for $364. These are both guns that I have been trying to get my hands...

    Impulse buy, CZ Rami...mistake ??

    K, I once had a CZ RAMI in 9mm. I sold it - I wish I had it back. VERY accurate for a short barrel gun. But all CZ's seem to be really accurate. I think the price was good. Good Luck, - w

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    Here is a little more info I found on saiga12.com on the Bulgarian Mags I have ordered: So maybe the Bulgarian ones I ordered will work. They s/b on the way. I do not have them in hands yet - so am anxious to see how they compare. - w

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    At 40 + yards in door - that is pretty much a black blob I see atht eh end of the black sights. FMJMike - What did the scope set you back? What brand/specs is it? I do prefer the Saiga hardware to the AK47 pistol grip variety. But to each his own. Well - I'll find out when they get...

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    I guess I used the wrong term. I meant no two shots were farther than 3-4" apart. I'm not sure about that. I am going to cut back some AK74 mags. I'll let you know how that goes. As far as indoor accuracy. I'm a bit handicapped by sight. I'm over 50 years old - and I use reading...

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    Well - it was accurate for me. Like I say - I'm really not a rifle guy. I'm mainly pistol. But comparing it to the SKS I have, and the Mini14 - I thought the Saiga was plenty accurate. Remember - this was indoor too. A darker light. No you did not burst my bubble. I'm still happy with...

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    That was from a seated postion. That was also from the stock sights. Thnking more about it (sorry - I did not save the targets) - it was probably more like 3-4" radius. - w

    Thumbs up for Saiga .223

    A few weeks back I posted that I just bought a Saiga short-barrell in .223. It took me a while to get to the range - but I did today. Unscientific range report - THAT SOB IS AN ACCURATE PIECE! I am not a rifle expert - but I put targets toward the end of the indoor range - I believe that is...

    .223 rifle questions.

    CarbineKid, AK mags can be modified for use in the SAIGA. That's what I plan on doing. Go to yahoo and search on "saiga conversion". - w

    Sell Mini-14 stainless to buy SU-16CA?

    Stanleys Pro Shop. I do not have it yet. I expect it mid-week next week (2/14, or 2/15). I'll try to post a range report once I get, it, and dial it in. Thanks, - w

    Sell Mini-14 stainless to buy SU-16CA?

    Armed Bear, I have a mini 14 SS and really like it. I too was attracted to the SU16. In "Gun Test" Magazine - the Sub2000 they tested was more accurate than the SU16. But...Let me point you in another direction. I saw a pic recently of a Saiga in 223, and I liked the looks. I ordered...

    Talk me out of a SAIGA...

    Ha Ha!!! OK. No negetive votes. So I got one. From looking at Gunbroker - this is a heck of a deal. I ordered a Saiga 223 16" barrel from... (drum roll...) "Stanleys Pro shop" - w

    Talk me out of a SAIGA...

    OK. Well I have been looking in to SAIGA's, and after some poking around, I see that I can get a Saiga 223 16" barrel for about $240 DELIVERED, and a 223 w/ 20" barrel for about $256 DELIVERED. I don't hunt. I would do target, and plunking. I have a Marlin 336 in 30-30, and a SKS w/...

    Is the Saiga the best I'm going to get?

    DReicht, I've never even held a Saiga - so I can not comment on that, but maybe keep in the mix the Ruger Mini-14. They are not as accurate as an AR-15. But a muzzle break, and synthetic stock help a great deal. I have shot an AR-15 (Bushmaster). They are a nice rifle - no question...
