Don't know if this is true, but I have no reason to doubt the poster. From a Finn on another board: If I owned one, I'd be contacting Sako directly and finding out if there is a recall.

Help this fellow find the Garand hid Dad carried in the Army. Interestingly enough, I just read that the IHC Garands were made right here in Evansville. Small world, eh? :)

I preordered a Yugo M59 SKS from AIM last week, and it came yesterday. Here's my impressions so far. First, I can't find the importer's mark anywhere. :confused: Second, it appears to have been rebarreled at some point, as the finish on the barrel and receiver cover doesn't quite...

Would it be legal after the AWB expiration to mount a folding stock on a Romanian WASR-10 AK clone? I don't plan on doing any other alterations to the gun other than replacing the crappy Century FCG with a Red Star Arms or other quality US made FCG. This would leave the US parts count the...

The ususal BS. :banghead:

for having a gun in his briefcase while trying to board a plane. Story Heh.

From left to right. Soviet M38 Mosin-Nagant carbine. Yugoslavian M59/66 SKS carbine. Romanian WASR-10 AK clone. From left to right. Remington Nylon 66 .22 rifle. Ruger 10/22 stainless .22 rifle Winchester 1300 Defender 12 gauge riot gun w/Robar NP3 finish. Soviet M44...

At the start of the year I bought a WASR-10 hicap rifle that sorely lacked the famous AK reliability. The gas block was canted and the rifle consistently would fail to feed (the bolt carrier would wedge on top of a round instead of stripping it out of the magazine) about once every 10-15 rounds...

One of my bosses at work gave me an unfired Bryco/Jennings .380 pistol that he found among his father's effects after he passed away. The gun was in the original box with a sales receipt dated 1992, and both magazines were fully loaded with 6 rounds each. Randy (my boss) told me that it was...

But AIM said they'll make it good and exchange the rifle. I took advantage of AIM's $99.95 excellent condition SKS offer and the rifle I got was in less than excellent shape. I called AIM and they said to send it back along with a copy of the invoice, and they'd be glad to exchange it...

My parents were divorced when I was five. One of the few things my Dad did with me after the divorce was take me out plinking in the woods. Actually, I think he did it partially to piss my Mother off because she hated guns, but I had fun. :D Anyway, the rifle he had was a Remington Nylon...

I recently bought a Romanian WSAR-10 that is unreliable. I've decided to make lemonade from this lemon and have the rifle customized (plastic furniture, refinished, AK-74 muzzle break, etc) as well as repaired. But I don't know of any shops that specialize in AK customizing/repair. Anyone...

I hold both an Indiana LTCH (License to Carry Handgun) and a Federal type 03 (Curio & Relic) FFL. For the first time ever (Indiana's permit ceased being an acceptable NICS altenative in October), I had to have an NICS check run on a firearm purchase yesterday. And the NICS response was...

My first Curio & Relic FFL purchased rifles. A Yugoslav M59/66 SKS. If I understand the codes right, the gun was made in 1979. It came coated with cosmoline, but with a little but of elbow grease, pine sol, and lemon oil on the stock, it cleaned up quite nicely. Not bad for $109...

I recently bought a Manurhin PP from Centerfire Systems. When I dry fired it, the hammer drop safety worked normally. Now after I put 100 rounds through it, the hammer doesn't drop when the safety is applied unless I press down on the slide right above the safety. Is this something cheap to...

A Manhurin PP .32ACP from Centerfire systems for $273.38 shipped. :D It's in pretty good shape for a 30-40 year old gun. The only really worn spot is on the front strap where the German police stamped in a number. I've got some ammo coming in from Midway next week and...

My came in today's mail after being sent off on Oct. 13. :D :D :D I've ordered my bound book from Brownell's and sent copies of the license (signed in blue ink) off to about a dozen wholesalers. What should I order first? A CZ-52? A Manhurin PP? A Yugo SKS? A Moisin? A SMLE...

I have a old Ruger 10/22 that I just replaced the barrel and trigger assembly on. The original barrel was a 16 inch blued barrel that had the finish worn and was rusted in places (I left the gun in a leaky car trunk for over a year :o ). I got a used (but in new condition) SS barrel off of...

I received the following email from Senator Bayh on S.659 'Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act' This is a pleasant surprise, especially when considering the only reply I got from Senator Lugar in regards to my letter was a boilerplate 'Thank you for your thoughts' that didn't even...

Evansville Courier & Press Story. If the situation is as described, I doubt that Levco will file charges. Even if he did, I can't see a jury in this are voting for conviction, nor can I see many people voting to re-elect the Prosecutor.
