    Questions on neutering an M1A - Pre-ban to Post-ban

    What would be involved in 'neutering' a pre-ban M1A which currently has a bayonet lug and flash hider? I believe that both are now illegal in New York State and that it would need to be in 'post-ban' form. Any thoughts on around how much it might run to have a gunsmith perform this sort of...

    Browning High Power magazine - How to limit to 7 rounds?

    My primary residence is in NY, and yesterday's new ban makes illegal any magazines over 10 rounds. All I have for my BHP are pre-ban 13 rounders, and they won't even let us buy 10-rounders (not that I could find any anyways). I'm trying to figure out a way of modifying them to comply with the...

I got it for a decent price, but it's clearly been neglected and has lots of rust throughout. I took the entire gun apart, and removed the barrel from the stock. I am soaking the lock...

    Newbie BP Questions

    I'd like to start collecting Civil War and old-west Era weapons, and am interested in getting a 1861 Springfield Rifle-musket, and a Trapdoor Springfield. I'm not looking for ultra-rare specimens, just pieces in reasonable shape to hang on the wall. The ability to safely shoot them would be a...

    A friend of a friend's husband recently passed away, and she is selling off his guns. She has a Glock 27 and a Glock 37, and I wanted to get an idea of their used price range so I can make an informed offer.

    Advice Requested: Is this .45ACP Ammo Corrosive?

    I just bought a new Taurus 1911 (blued with rail). In my haste to try it out, I grabbed a few boxes of G.I. ball ammo I had lying around forever. After going through one box, I noticed that the ammo appeared to be quite old, apparently dating back to 1952. The primers have a red painted ring...

    WTK: What are these guns worth?

    Please forgive me if this is the wrong forum section for this. A neighbor has had the following three guns socked away in a closet for many years. He is preparing to put them up for sale at the local range, but has no idea what they are worth. I have not seen them myself, but let's assume they...
