I've been mulling over Jeff Coopers idea of a .308 Scout Rifle. A short, light, rifle with open sights, forward mounted scope, and chambered in .308 Winchester. I can see the usefullness in this. Actually I can see myself making htis my go-to rifle at all times except home defense. I thought...

Boy did I miss out yesterday at the gun show, and Im still upset. I brought 300 bucks in cash with me, with the intent to buy an AR lower reciever and maybe some wolf .223. I found a DPMS reciever for $125.00, put the money down & filled my paperwork out. Well, while Im waiting for the -Go...

How many different calibers do you own? If you own many different calibers, is there a reason, other than collecting? I currently own rifles in 6 different calibers: .22 .223 7.62x39 .30-30 6.5x55 .30-06 I dont use the .30-30 other than a truck gun. If I really wanted to I could...

I've had an AK 74 Romy WASR , and hated it. The gun jammed, and literally bound up, and had to be sent back to the factory for repair. The front sight was canted. It was a POS. I asked around about the Bulgy and was given a good response. I've decided to give the AK platform a second chance...

Photoshoppers have fun:D

Are there any aftermarket hi-cap mags for them? How's overall quality and reliability? Can you hit what you aim at, say, 50yds away? How 'bout 100yds? Are there plenty of aftermarket accesories available?

Thought those of us who dont reload would like to know; I was playing around on the net last night, and found some good deals on 6.5x55 ammo: Sportsmans Guide has Hirtenberger 139gr surplus for $180.00 per 400rds (buyers club price). AIM has Igman 200rd packs of 139gr. soft point for...

Ammunition was Monarch. Im sure its not the greatest ammo in the world, but it was brass case fmj, new manufacture. The first jam was a stovepipe while feeding. It was on the second round of a full mag. Where I messed up was not making a mental note of what mag it was. The second jam, the...

For the second installment of "Total Round Count Death Match" I have chosen two classic carbines; the Marlin 336 chambered in .30-30WCF, and the Russian made SKS chambered in 7.62x39. In the last faceoff (M1 Garand vs. AK 47) I didnt include any guidelines, so there were alot of...

This argument is based on semi automatic firearms only. Please , no discussion of full auto rifles. Thank You. I was having a friendly debate with a good friend of mine. He's a gun enthiusiast also. To the best of my knowledge he doesnt post here. The debate was of the following- Is the M1...

The last few nights I've gotten home from work the site has been down. I wanted to check the .223 ammunition price thread.

Good news - I am ready to add to my growing collection Bad news- I dont have much of an idea of what I want. Let me disclose what I already have in my handgun collection : SigP220 .45 Kimber Classic Custom .45 Springfield GI .45 Makarov 9x18 Recent guns I've shot : I shot a...

I have been discussing an idea with je223 for a gel-block test new test. I would like to see a side by side gel-block result comparison between common defensive calibers, using popular/common defensive loads. Here is a rough idea of what we have in mind: .38 Special - 'FBI load' (158gr +P...

This was forwarded to me in an e-mail. Im not a huge country music fan; but this was incredibly moving. Its a video for Tim Mcgraws' "If you're reading this Im already home" ; a tribute to our troops. I thought I'd share it, I know its not really gun related but I think you'll appreciate it if...

Its no secret that I endorse Ron Paul. But this deserves to be posted. source: http://abcradio.com/article.asp?id=405250&SPID=15663

Ron Paul was on CNN this morning. Can anyone provide a link to a video of the interview? I missed it and wanted to watch it. Thanks in advance.

Would Dr. Paul do better if he went on his own, leaving the Republican party? I read a blog in which the author suggested this(I appologize, I dont have a link), and stated that Paul would also do better keeping to a grassroots campaign(he has a high following on the net), and avoiding...

Its on now on MSNBC, they arent really giving Ron Paul any time. Huckabee sounds really good, so does Tommy Thompson (I dont know much about him). Anyone else watching?

I am interested in rebluing my Dads old Mak and am wondering if I can with an Outers Bluing kit. If I strip the frame and slide can I reblue it with an Outers kit?
