    Hypothetical values of Milsurps

    Looking back we all seem to assume that Milsurps guns tend to go up in value, especially once they are no longer ubiquitously available. I had an interesting thought today about the future value of many milsurps, especially the high quality ones, barring any outside social influences like...

    Help! stuck gas tube on AR-15

    I'm in the middle of my first rebarrel job on my AR. Its been fun so far- lets just say that I would never worry about the taper pins on the FSB ever walking out :eek: Anyhow, I have the FSB off, the gas tube roll pin out, but the gas tube seems like its almost welded into the FSB. I need to...

    Removable carry handle and NRA Highpower?

    The AR I currently use for highpower has a removable carry handle. I've only shot reduced range courses so far but, from my calculations, I don't think I have nearly enough elevation adjustment if I wanted to use the rifle in a cross course competition. Are there ways to make this workable-...

    Can anyone analyse my rifle shooting?

    I shot my first highpower match in about 5 years a few weeks ago- it was a pretty humbling experience. I ended upbuying a .22 for practice, and after 3 practice sessions, a recurring problem is evident. My shots are all good on elevation, but are stringing horizontally- mainly to the left of...

    Please tell me about the mossberg 144

    I've been looking for a good target .22 for inexpensive practice on my positional shooting. The recent thread on ceiner ar-15 conversions piques my interest as I'd be able to use the same sights for highpower, but I'm really concerned about their accuracy. I'm also considering acquiring a...

    mosin nagant scout scope

    I just received a NCstar scout rail mount for a Mosin nagant. It cost me about $12 total, so I thought I'd give it a try. I have a couple of 91/30s that are decent shooters, but I don't want to dink with the iron sights to make them hit the point of aim- they shoot way high, also my eyesight...

    Probably the nicest milsurp I ever bought...

    I noticed this rifle at the local Cabelas late last week, it looked really nice but the price tag was more than I wanted to spend ($400). I got a bit of money for Christmas and a $30 coupon in the mail from Cabelas and I did a little research on what it was and how much they are typically valued...

    Out of the mouths of babes

    Last night, after getting my 5 year old son ready for bed, I told him that we could stay up and watch TV for about 15 minutes before he had to go to bed. Flipping through the channels, I found a show called 'Weapons of the SS' or something like that on the Military channel. The...

    Another butterfly knife question for USA

    I saw a Canadian just asked a legal question about butterfly knives... What is the current law in the United States? The reason I asked is that I recently read somewhere that Spyderco started making a really nice butterfly knife, came into some sort of conflict with US laws and promptly...

    1911 followed me home...

    but I emptied my 'gun budget' for the next several months. :eek: I stopped at Cabela's on the way home from work (its on my way and I stop once/week to check if they have anything interesting) and found a really nice Swiss 1911 rifle. The price was fairly high, but it included a pioneer bayonet...

    cross-dominance help

    I'm getting a Savage Cub for my son's birthday as he likes going to the range and shooting my .22 but the one I have is too big for him (he's turning 5 next month). What I've been noticing is that he's been favoring his left eye but he's right handed. I also tested him and he clearly favors his...
