    Now what?!?!?!?

    I walked into a gun shop, and bought a few items... got to lookin' at a double barrel without a stock when the owner said "If you want it, you can have it. Just gotta do a 4473 on it as it's on my book." Figured why not, filled out some paperwork and I was out the door... Savage Arms Corp Fox...

    Mosin Nagant cleaning rod adapter

    I found a screw with an interesting nut in it that was an inch long and looked to be held inside a hole by crush fit. I cut it down to 3/4" with a file and was left with an internally threaded piece about 5/8" that threads onto the cleaning rod to take standard 8-32 threaded brushes. Couple that...

    Do they make one, and have they finally started making top breaks?

    Here's an interesting piece

    I can't get the guy to give a concrete price, but thought it would be neat to own http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/5783/0521101253.jpg http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/5533/0521101257.jpg The only marks I remember, are a "P" and the number 152

    What is with Taurus and a rash of zits?

    Stopped in to the local gun shop, and every Taurus had had an integrated lock somewhere: Little 22s, pocket 380s, revolvers, and even their pseudo 1911s had them. Is everyone migrating to this kind of lock system?

    Anyone have a Kanetsune Utage KB-113?

    http://www.kanetsune.com/assets/galleries/160/kb-113utage.jpg It looks like a neat knife, but not sure how practical or durable it is. I like the look of it, but don't want to spend some $200-$300 on something that is just good for showing off at BBQs.

    I found the concept for my rifle build...

    http://www.antiquefirearms.com/images/hgfor/yaegerdreyse3.JPG The Dreyse Needle Gun. It's not going to be a reproduction, but just something along the style. I'm not sure about the barrel, but I have been kicking around the idea of a gentle taper then flared out. Sort of like a P-08...

    .308 Norma Magnum: Does anyone have it?

    It's somewhat available, from what I see from my search. Definitely a handloader's round. Well, anyway I thought it looked like a neat round and wondered if anyone here has experience with it.

    What can I make out of an Arisaka Type 99 action?

    I see a few on GB that look okay, so I could get one and and all I would need by the look of things is a barrel, stock, and an idea as to what I can chamber it in. Since 7.7x58mm Arisaka being what it was made for, we have some basic dimensions as to what we can use. Rim thickness 1.0 mm...

    2 3/4" in a 3" chambered pump

    Apparently it doesn't work well with more than one in the tube, but fortunately I only bought a box of 25, and it works fine with one in the tube and one in the chamber. Just one of those small thing no one ever told me about.

    S&W 59: A few questions

    Is it okay to dry fire? How do I get used to the difference between DA and SA? I'm glad I wasn't at an actual range, or they might not have been happy. I brought it to my little shooting spot and loaded it. I de-cocked and took aim, then fired. Nice trigger, and everything worked fine. Okay, so...

    Lorcin L-22 and .22 Longs?

    Well I bought some .22 Longs to try an experiment to see if they would feed better in a bolt action I am having trouble with, well it didn't work, so anyway... I bought an L-22 and the first thing I did was was compare parts between it and my Jennings J-22. The big thing I noticed was the...

    Delayed: What counts for those three days?

    All right, my gun came in; it's Friday and oooooh how I hate Fridays for calling in 4473s due to the higher volume of traffic then. My FFL is open on the weekend, so do those days count?

    RG 26 needs recoil spring

    It started out fine, but then started experiencing ejection failures so I stretched the recoil spring and it was more firm for a while and was back to normal but now it's back to the same thing. Before my initial stretch I measured the spring and now it's back to the pre-stretch length and back...

    Armscor M30: Is it a copy of anything?

    Finding out anything on this model is close to impossible, and the pdf from the Armscor website leaves a lot to be desired, I also need to find out If I can make the butt stock from something else fit.

    The difference between open and concealed carry?

    I have a regular OWB holster, which is fine for open carry, but does that change when I put a my coat on? Actually I have two coats, but both cover it up (one partially, and the other the whole thing). The one that partially covers can be tucked in between the holster as to make it obvious, but...

    What to make a sword blade from...

    All right, I have an almost 1" section of railroad track, and aside from some light grinding, looks to be right for the handle of a one handed sword. Now it's just a matter of what to make the blade out of, and how to attach blade to handle.:confused:

    Weak recoil spring causing failures?

    Well, rather than hijack a thread: Glock Gen4 crap out reports already coming in. How does this cause malfunctions? Is it limited to locking actions, or does it happen to blowbacks as well? Aside from round count: How do I diagnose a weak spring?
