    A family member as expressed a desire to have a nice rangefinder. Since I know nothing about them, I turn to you. What do you like or not like about the ones you've used? What's a best pick up to about $250+/-? Thanks. Jay

    Your Dream Revolver

    I've been a bolt action surplus rifle guy, mostly. My only "revolver" has been the 1895 Nagant. Today, however, I scored a S&W 686+ and I'm quite stoked to get to the range now! Jay

    Do You Have a USELESS firearm?

    I snagged an Enfield No2Mk1 a few years ago. It's actually in nice shape on the outside. The hammer will not go back when the action is closed and the cylinder is properly aligned. If the break action is open or the cylinder is between chambers, the hammer functions. Technical info has been...

    How is 8mm?

    I've managed to accrue an Ishapore 2A and also an Israeli Mauser, both in 7.62 NATO. They both shoot well.

    Browning or Bluing?

    I concur with the nickel content replies. I have a "B barrel" M39 Finnish Mosin with a "plum" colored barrel, similar to your finish. The nickel content is quoted as the reason that series of rifles are that color.

    The Stove is On Fire!

    Consider also getting the next size up from the smallest one you see. I pulled over to suppress a small (10' round) grass fire on the roadside once. I was surprised at how little was in the small can, as I emptied it and began the work boot stomp dance on the remainder of burning material.
