I go pick up an unusual piece tomorrow. I have not personally handled it, just seen a few (badly out of focus) pics. It appears to be a 9mm (rimfire maybe?) smoothbore. It has a european type stock with the wide grip panels and a schnabbel forend. Full-length hex barrel, and the hammer face is...

I'm looking for a right-hand IWB small-of-back cavalry-draw holster with belt loops and thumb break. Does anyone know of a holster maker that offers such a thing? I think a Kahr PM-9 holster fits the Kel-Tec as well. Thanks...

I just picked up a 20 ga New Haven by Mossberg pump gun with a shot barrel with a collet choke, and a smoothbore slug barrel with iron sights. It's pretty light, and the price seemed good at $175.00... Now for the question. Does this gun use Mossberg 500 barrels? If the accuracy of the slug...

Just watched an episode, and watched the owner's son take a shot at a squirrel, in a tree, clear sky behind, with his DEER RIFLE!!! ...Of course he missed... I expect to see these reality guys act like gold-plated idiots, but this is not only stupid, it's criminally dangerous, and should...

My cousin wants to convert a M-N and he doesn't have a computer, so he asked me to print out a how-to. I once had a link from one of you to a czech page by a guy who made one, buy the link no longer works. If someone has a working non-video how-to link I can print, I'd appreciate the help...

Barrel cut to 19 1/2" and crowned, sight dovetail turned off, and barrel rough polished...

Bought a hex Tula a month or so ago from J&G, and started disassembly today. It's all #s matching, but while the receiver is a '31 and in great cosmetic shape, the barrel is a '52...Great, but was kinda surprised to see it had been backbored & recrowned. No big deal, as I'm chopping it anyway...

I am beginning a radical M-N sporterization and one of the goals of the project is to install a quarter-rib and 3-leaf express sight setup on it. I can get Ruger #1 ribs from Numrich, but I don't know what the barrel diameters are of the various models to determine which model's rib to order...

I'm currently beginning a radical sporterization of a hex reciever Mosin-Nagant, and I might like to surface grind & polish the flats for a better finish to the reblue, but if it has the light markings and numbers from the importer on it, it will likely be removed. Would I be in violation of...

Always wanted a .348, love M-Ns, and I hate showing up with the same stuff everybody else has. The difference in rim diameter looks doable, but my M-N sporter (not the one I'd use) is at my buddies house, so I'm not able to do any magazine measurements now. Do any of you gunsmith types see...

...That I won't have to join? I have a project in mind to rebarrel a Mosin-Nagant to .348 win if the numbers work.

...Not guess, not 'looks like', but knows powder, bullet and primer. I have a M-N that shoots 1.5" all day with the old Norma PSPBT loads, but I only have a half box left, and would like to duplicate them. Thanks.

Just had to watch the first episode last night...Right up until they discuss how they're going to catch and castrate this boar, and then turn him loose!! Time to change the channel, but I couldn't help but wonder, do hogs like silicone?

I have an ATI stock on my sporterized 91/30, but I've been wanting to go to a wood stock. The only sources I have found are Boyd's and Richards precision. I know Bishop used to make 'em, and there are probably others, but my Google-Foo has been no good. Can anyone help with some useful links...

MI just made 'em legal, and being a journeyman toolmaker, I could easily make my own. is there any legal way to do it myself?

...My grandmother had a bolt-action .22 when I was young that was made for Sears, or maybe Monkey Wards. it used a 10-round detachable box magazine, and I presume it was made by Marlin, because it had a micro-groove looking barrel. The only other distinguishing characteristic I recall was that...

...Say I want to sell my home and stuff, load up the motor home and spend my retirement fishing and hunting all over, but must have something to use as an address for DL and CPL purposes. Do any of you do this, and how do you meet the requirements? Thanks...

I have a Lee deluxe reloading kit, and factory crimp diesets for the rifles I have. Now I'm gathering components, and since I can get them almost wholesale, I can generally afford to buy in large lots. I'm trying to select powders with an eye to the possibility of finding ones that can be...

I'm working up the determination to cut the 30" modified barrel on my M-12 to 20" for slug use. It's been nicely refinished, and there was some pitting on the receiver that never cleaned up, so it's not like there's a lot of collector value to protect, but I basically use it only for deer...

The only shotgun I'm really interested in owning is the model 12, and I have a smooth (1952) 2 3/4" 12ga with a 28" modified choke barrel. Trouble is, I don't hunt birds any more, and the only use the gun sees is deer hunting in Michigan's southern lower peninsula shotgun zone. The bead sight is...
