    AK-103K by AK-USA/Chris Butler (pics/review)

    I had Chris at AKUSA in Florida put together this beauty for me over the Christmas holiday. In short, gun starts life as an Arsenal/Saiga import, Chris does the conversion, shortened the barrel to 14 inches, refinished the gun, and dehorned a few edges, etc. I added a few other 'practical'...

    AT-94K MP5K clone range report (PICS)

    I know its not technically a rifle, but most who buy these intend to SBR them into rifles.... First outing with the AT-94K MP5K clone. Fired 500 rounds of WWB and WWB NATO, no issues or malfunctions. One round failed to ignite, and would not detonate in a 9mm USP or Glock either. Bad...

    FN FS2000: CQB perfection?

    I love this gun. 5000 rounds - ZERO malfunctions You've got the punch of a full sized 17 inch barrel, the compact size of a 12 inch SBR. It balances like a dream, snaps up on target faster than anything I've shot, except for an HK PDW. It might not look it, but damn its comfortable to hold...

    5.56 vs Armadillo (GRAPHIC)

    Went hunting for rabbit tonight, ended up finding this guy wandering through the field, 2 rounds of 55gr 5.56 impacted at the same time as one round of heavy birdshot. Im guessing the majority of the damage is from the 5.56 Needless to say he didnt make it too far

    An Honest Look at the FNH FS2000 Carbine - The Underappreciated Space Gun (PICS)

    Back around the beginning of the year, I told myself that if I got into medical school, I would reward myself with some sort of cool toy. I have always been an AK guy, and have been spoiled by the extreme reliability of the AK platform. Rarely have I encountered, tested, or owned another...

    PICS of Range Trip, new AK, USP's, 12ga, other gun PICS

    Went to the range this weekend to play with some new toys. The verdict? I think Saiga AK's are some of the best for the money, especially when converting them only costs 50-60 bucks if you do your part. I'm still a firm believer that the USP is one of the best handguns around. I can...

    New STG-2003 .223 AK rifle, my thoughts

    I placed an order for a .223 cal AK rifle called an STG-2003 a couple weeks back (thanks to DDs ranch for great, quick shipping by the way) and Ive had some time to look it over. Heres my thoughts. I knew going into it that this rifle was just a Romanian rifle, built up by Inter Ordinance...

    SP-01 advice?

    Hi all, looking for a 9mm to supplement my .45 HK for cheaper range time....I'd shot a CZ75 long ago and was very impressed, and now the SP-01 has my attention. The local shop has one on consignment for 395, I dont know if this is a good deal or not. I didnt look to see how used it was, but at...

    Range Report: USP 45/SIG Pro SP2022

    I got in from the range this weekend, and was once again thoroughly impressed by both of these pistols. I chose the HK USP in .45ACP. My brother chose the SIG Pro SP2022 in 9mm. I love mine, and he loves his, and heres why: The Good: The USP is handsome, beefy, well-made, and accurate. You...

    Under 21, Handgun, in Texas

    Hey guys, quick legal question....I just graduated from college in Waco, rough town, and was nearly the victim of crimes on more than one occasion. Needless to say, I'm a gun owner, and in the process of becoming a CHL holder as well. My younger brother started college at the same school, and is...

    Price Check:Norinco SKS- educate me

    I picked up a Norinco SKS from a buddy of mine on the cheap, and I know its worth substantially more than what I paid. Its a nice gun and all, but unfortunately isnt of much use to me. I'd like to sell it to help fund a new pistol for my upcoming CHL. Hopefully one of you experts can chime in...

    Can old shotgun "handle" buckshot?

    This may sound like a silly question, but I've got an old bolt-action 16 gauge shotgun that I inherited from my grandfather when he passed away. Its nothing valuable, I think its one of those Sears-brand guns. The magazine doesnt work reliably, so its basically a longggg barreled single shot gun...

    Bernie Goetz and Joe Horn

    Now I'm a youngster, and just stumbled across the story of New York's Bernie "The Subway Killer" Goetz, having never heard it before. It seems like that case was pretty divisive, with issues like racism, vigilantism, etc being brought up. Like the more recent Joe Horn case, Goetz pretty much...

    Hmmm Sell USP for SIG?

    Im in a pickle....I'm a college student without a large amount of "gun money". I only have one gun currently, an HK USP .45 that I picked up for a decent deal not long ago. I love it, great gun and all, just very big. I can handle and shoot it just fine, but I am going to get my carry permit...

    SKS price check

    Im not really interested in an SKS, but a buddy of mine is letting go what seems to be a pretty nice Norinco model 56 (?) for around 215 bucks. Is this a good buy? I thought about buying it and holding onto it for a bit then possibly reselling, but I wont do that if his price isnt too far from...

    .223 from 12 inch barrel?

    Hey guys, Im considering one of those AK pistols in .223 or x39 for a backpack/backseat/"emergency situation" type of gun. I know that velocity is hampered by shortening the barrel, but these things still have a 12 inch barrel, which isnt nearly as bad as say, a Sig 552 or G36C barrel, which is...

    Help me choose CCW piece

    Hey gents, Texan college student here, purchased a HK USP .45 back when I turned 21 and I love it to death, but its just too damn big to carry in anything but the coldest part of the year. I'll be graduating this summer and working, and I want to get my Carry Permit now that I'm entering the...

    "Bent" Shotgun Barrel help?

    Hey guys, found a Mossberg 500 12 gauge shotgun for sale, $75 bucks. Only problem is, the end of the barrel is a little "bent"....Not in the sense that it is curved or something, but the very very tip of the bore looks like it has been squished in just a little bit. If you look straight at the...
