I have two slabs of lead, approx. 18x12x2 inches. Any idea on the best way to cut them into usable chunks? (Preferrably not more than 4" on a side) I tried a Sawzall but gave up when it took 10 minutes to get about 3" into the first cut (using coarse tooth blade). Lay it out on a train...

(We don't really have an "ammo" section, so I thought reloading might be the closest thing...) Ok, so I started casually collecting single rounds of different calibers for a shadow box/display case. Knowing that it was something I'd love, my wife had a display case built for me by a friend of...

Went to a gun shop here in central Indiana this weekend (Pop Guns). Guess what I found... An AMD65 for the low, low price of... $2450.00. They also had what looked like a WASR-10 with Galil furniture for $1800. Good luck with the sale, guys. I try to support my local shops when I can, but...

I'm looking to buy a larger (45 gun or more) RSC, looking for suggestions. So far I'm looking at the Stack-On 45 gun shown here: I can get it delivered for about $1200 with no sales tax. My budget is $1000 - $1500, with very little wiggle room above that ceiling. Push button/digital...

Just want to make sure I'm correctly understanding what I read elsewhere... I have a Yugo 59/66 SKS with the 10-round fixed mag. In order to use detachable mags (like this Tapco 20 rounder), all I need to do is remove the trigger group, remove the fixed mag, replace trigger group? That's...

I bought a "preban Chinese SKS" with three detachable mags from a coworker of a friend who wanted to get rid of it for Christmas money. I bought it sight-unseen for his asking price of $200 on his description that it's in new, unfired condition. Here's the "preban Chinese SKS". Not sure he...

Short version: I want a progressive press on a budget, and am considering the Lee Pro 1000. Suggestions? Long version: I have a single-stage Lee press now, and while it does everything I want it to do, I shoot so much handgun that it's a really time consuming process. In addition, I...

Anyone know if the ATI SKS stock here will fit a Chinese SKS (the type with removable mags)? Thanks!

Considering Walther's P22 and wondered if anyone makes over 10 round mags for them... Thanks all.

I put a pin-on AK74 style muzzle brake on my MAK-90 about 15 years ago. Pretty sure I ordered it from Tapco. Somewhere north of 6000 rounds later, it flew off the end of the barrel this weekend. Rest in peace, old friend. I'd like to put another one on, but it looks like Tapco doesn't...

I have a coworker who is into cowboy shooting, and just picked up two pairs of New Vaqueros. He's wanting to replace the hammers with wider Super Blackhawk hammers. I see that Brownells has them for around $30 each, since he would probably be buying four, is there anywhere that he could get a...

Just curious. (Wish there was a NFA/AOW sub-forum at THR)

What is the least (and the most) number of rounds anyone here has on hand right this second for firearms you own? Any reason for the quantity? Least: I have a PA-63 and no 9x18 on hand (just bought the gun, waiting for the gun show next weekend to buy ammo). Runner up: 6.5x55 Swede: 30...

Range report: I've now seen not one, but two people with clamp-on muzzle brakes on their Mosins at the range. Both of them went downrange within the first 20 rounds out of the rifle. In both cases, the mounting hardware (screw or bolt) broke. It was kind of funny because I was talking to...

I have a JC Higgins bolt action .22, and I can't find the serial number. The top of the barrel says: J.C. Higgins-Model 103.229-22 Cal. Sears, Roebuck, and Company-S-L-LR She's obviously got a few years on her, did this company not put serial numbers on them in those days? (To be...

I'm looking at the larger safes available in some of the box stores. I'm on a pretty tight budget ($1000 - $1500 including tax and delivery) and right now I'm leaning towards this one. I'm have no doubt that there are better safes available, but better ones of the same size for the money? I'm...

(Posted under Handguns because there isn't an "Ammo" category, except for reloading... While I do reload, I don't enjoy it nearly as much as I thought I would. :( ) I'm planning to buy about 1000 rounds of the calibers I shoot the most. There's a gun show coming to my area in the middle of...

Honest question from a technical, mechanical, historical perspective. Anything interchangeable on them? Thanks!

I went out and bought a new 10/22 along with two Ramline 50-round mags and a Shooter's Ridge speed loader (this model). In the middle of loading the second magazine, the speed loader split apart, throwing plastic pieces and springs into the grass. Gander Mountain was good enough to refund my...

I love my Mossberg 30-30 levergun, and I was thinking that it would be nice to have one in .357 since I already reload for my 686. That got me thinking that semi-auto would be really nice, but I don't know if anyone makes that. Tube-fed would be the best of all worlds. Anyone know of...
