Guy showed up at work and asked me to take a look at his new pistol. I didn't want to see the thing much less handle it... however curiosity got the better of me:o I was pleasantly surprised, and relieved, to find the S/N and even point it out. "Oh, THAT'S the serial number?":rolleyes: I...

Fortunately I'm not a fed. My username just so happens to be my initials and some numbers, that's all:p The only reason I started this topic was because I don't personally know many people with an educated interest in firearms. I figured what better place to get advice than THR. Back on...

The girlfriend is the one that's giving all this info because she "did research." One minute they would say it was made before serial numbers and later they would say the S/N was removed. Doesn't make since. I mean I've seen some old guns before but never without a S/N. They're college kids that...

We have all been there before. We start talking with someone and the topic turns to guns, sometimes you are able to enlighten other times it's just not worth it, but where do you draw the line? A coworker of mine is getting a pistol for Christmas (look but can't touch scenario) from his...

When western civilization falls, I'm heading to Ohio:)

He seemed like a genuinely good person and I'm sure he will be deeply missed by his family and friends. We didn't know you well, but we shared a common joy... you can rest now friend :(

Thanks for all the info and updates MGB, I really appreciate it. I ordered a new bolt cocking handle, recoil spring, and a new mag tube assembly. The rifle seems to be in good working order now. Thanks for all the help guys :).

SgtMaj, does your rifle's bolt handle also have a recoil spring and guide rod attached to it? I've never seen my brother's rifle with rod or recoil spring attached to the bolt. See link... http://www.e-gunparts.com/DisplayAd.asp?chrProductSKU=174770&chrSuperSKU=&MC=

I've disassembled and cleaned the rifle before when my brother wanted me to look at it. The rifle is original, no modified/missing parts, just plain worn out and in need of repair. I've left a couple of messages over at Numrich about their parts but no response yet. Also, I talked to my uncle...

Thanks for the info Steven Mace, but something is still bothering me. Of all the photos of the rifle I've scrounged up, not one shows the same type bolt as my brothers. On my brothers rifle the charging handle was made of plastic and attached directly to the right side of the bolt with the...

My brother inherited this rifle from my grandpaw and it really needs some TLC. Rifle in question is a Kodiak Model 260 .22wmr, #13***. I really need to replace the bolt, springs, and a few other parts and would like to know if there is possibly some sort of breakdown guide or manual. Also, I...

MERRY CHRISTMAS to you, and all of THR, from Louisiana:)

A similar incident happened at my HS about fifteen years ago, at that time the JROTC used .22 target rifles. Unfortunately after a team member was accidently shot in the leg the rifle program was shut down for a few years. When the program finally came back the .22's were taken out of service...

Generally speaking, swaping out parts of the clone guns should be alright. Keep in mind though that the Remington and Savage clones (as far as I can remember) don't have the mag-cutoff, utilize a somewhat different yet effective buffer system :scrutiny: , the barrel threads are completely...

Pulling implies a jerking motion which, generally speaking, reduces accuracy, squeeezing implies a consant steady force. I was taught "point and pull" for shotguns, and "aim and squeeze" for rifles and pistols.

My dad never really had an interest in guns or hunting , that was all Papaw. I got really close to Papaw before he died, I was always amazed when he told stories of hunting when he was younger. I never got to see Papaw shoot let alone handle a gun until one summer I stayed for a few days...

There was also an attempted school shooting in Las Vegas at around 9 this mornig, suspect still on the loose :mad:

Mornin' all. I need some info, if any, on a Larson .380 pistol not to be confused with Lorcin. Could Larson be a sub-manufacture of another company? I could use any info available, date of manufacture, pics, prices. Need info for a stolen weapon report. Moderators, please feel free to...

Yeah definetley go with the 870, can be customized to meet just about any need, very reliable, and you can find used ones in good condition for well under $300.

Haven't read that before, very funny. Thanks for postin'.
