Kahr Arms, had one of the original Kahr PM40 handguns, put 1500 rounds through it, almost every magazine failure to return to battery or failure to extract and eject or failure to feed two or three times a magazine, then the magazines started falling apart. Sent back to Kahr three times and...

Dad, US Navy, WWII, USS Savannah, light cruiser, off Salerno, lost 200 men, 1/4 of crew due to German Dive Bomber. Me, University of Viet Nam, Class of 68/69, Paratroopers, did battle with a grenade, lightly wounded me but totally destroyed the grenade! Dad and I had fun every Army/Navy Game!

Tactical Arms with Larry Vickers, on battle rifles, assault rifles, sub guns, all military hardware is excellent. Larry gives excellent even handed descriptions of the firearms and their strengths and weaknesses and history, from an ex Special Operations Soldier who has experience and knows what...

I totally agree with you, I have a Vepr in 762x39 and one in 308 and one in 556. I love the windage adjustable rear sight, the fit and finish, the heavier barrel, they are the cat's meow of AK'S! Only problem is availability and cost of the 308 ten round mags!

I looked to buy an AR10 and ended up with an Armalite AR10T which I am very happy with, but almost bought a DPMS SASS, was outbid on Gunbroker, and I believe I would have been very happy with it. My brother just went through this, we priced AR10'S and if I remember correctly, the LWRC was...

I follow Vepr's and other guns on Gunbroker, a good deal would be around $800 but for a new unfired in the box, probably around a grand. Good Luck!

Definitely bolt a safe down, preferably to a concrete floor in the basement. Have a plumber put in one sprinkler head over your safe for additional fire proofing. Have a good alarm system put in with cell phone backup and fire monitoring devises besides motion detectors and glass break sensors...

For all of you who will not use FMJ because of overpenetration and worrying about innocent bystanders, well that it commendable. But what if your attacker starts shooting at you from behind hard cover, or you miss and your attacker takes cover behind hard cover and starts shooting at you, if...

FMJ Versus Hollowpoints The reason I Dutch Load, alternating hollowpoints and full metal jacketed rounds in the magazine, is because in all the firefights I have been in, the Military with rifles, people being shot at take cover, a hollowpoint is best if a clear shot, but what if your attacker...

Penetration is to me more important than expansion. I like to "Dutch Load" alternating rounds between FMJ for penetration and HP for expansion.

Vepr, no longer made, but one of the best and accurate AK'S, RPK machine gun stamped receiver, heavy barrel, rear sight adjustable for windage and elevation. $800 to $1000 on Gunbroker, in 762x39,556, and 308.

Guns and ammo are a good investment. Paper fiat money not backed by gold or anything else and printed by the banks of the Federal Reserve not the US Government is only good as long as EVERYONE thinks it is good. I was a Paratrooper Grunt out in the jungle of Viet Nam in 68/69 and if I remember...

Thank You, Adirondack! for answering my question on building a stud and sheetrock closet around a gun safe, sounds like an economical way to get excellent fireproofing to me. Thank You, ALABDJ! for bringing up the subject of used safes, a used safe should be just as good as a new one and you...

I own an Amsec BF series gun safe, by the way you can get a lot of rifles and shotguns in a safe by putting silicone gun socks on them and putting half of them barrels up and half of them barrels down, after taking out the interior racks. My gunsafe is bolted to the floor and I have a...

I highly recommend the Air Force. On the AF Bases I have been on the facilities and food were great and I never saw so many good looking women. Dad was in the Navy, his cruiser the U.S.S. Savannah, in WWII, off the coast of Salerno, took a bomb from a German Dive Bomber, out of a crew of...

The happiest day of my Life will be at my Funeral,,,when all my Friends and Family will be chuckling about Dave who prepared for the Disaster that never came. I am 63 and can still do everything I could do at 20, it just takes me longer, physically I am not as tough, mentally I am tougher...

For $10 a firearm for a complete ultrasonic cleaning, I am moving to Idaho, and you can clean all of my firearms until I kick the bucket, and one final cleaning before my Wife sells off my collection! Most places charge $25-$35 or more, you might seriously get a lot of the other people's...

If I remember correctly the Russians lost 20 million people in WWII, if I lived in a country with those kind of losses in a War, I would insist on gun ownership, and it would be in that country's interest to have an armed population. I can't remember exactly when I hunted Elk with Dick and...

I would hate to be limited to one firearm but if I was it would be a good reliable accurate centerfire rifle. I love handguns, there is nothing better for concealed carry, but they are underpowered and short range compared to a rifle or a shotgun. I love shotguns and bird hunting, but...
