    SP2340 hammer follow

    I picked up a used Sig SP2340 from a local shop the other day. I took it to the range and every shot the hammer followed when the slide went forward. i tried cycling it by hand and if I let the slide go from any more than half way back the hammer will drop. Any Ideas on the cause/fix? Here...

    9mm PCC, braced AR pistol, AR rifle, or Ruger PCC-9?

    I've been thinking about getting a 9mm carbine for a while now, but other things have always taken priority. Now my club is starting a PCC division at our outlaw 3-Gun matches and I'm itching to try it out. I would also like this carbine to serve double duty for HD, especially for the wife...

    Sub $1000 AK74 options?

    So I'm interested in buying a 5.45 AK, but the only options that I can find are the Molot Vepr at $1000 with the too thick/too heavy 1.5 mm receiver, the Arsenal SLR-104 at $1100, and the SGL31 at $1400+. Why can you find 47s in the $600-800 range, but no 74s below $1000!?

    10/22 upgrades for Appleseed

    Hello all, I'm going to my first Appleseed this September and will be taking my ~6 year-old 10/22. I'm wanting to improve the trigger and do any other little fixes to improve accuracy. I have a few questions. 1. I'll be putting tech sights on the rifle, but I'm undecided between the...

    Makarov disconnector issues

    I just got an unissued Bulgarian Makarov from SOG. It was packed in cosmoline so I detail stripped it and got it all cleaned up. Now I'm trying to get it back together and am having issues. It seems that the disconnector (on the trigger bar) is not working properly, possibly because of an issue...

    Pinned AR-15 BUIS gas block?

    Does anyone make a pinned (as opposed to clamp-on) folding front sight/gas block combination? I know Vltor does, but that thing is ugly, and I'd rather not spend ~$200 on an ugly gas block. Thanks.

    Bringing pre-1898 rifles to US from Europe

    My wife and I have the opportunity to live in France for a year this coming fall. I am curious if anyone knows what would be involved with sending a pre-1898 rifle back to the US. I'm thinking something like an 1886 Lebel, 1888 Commission rifle, Martini-Henry, early Mosin, etc. Maybe even a...

    Roy's Original Pancake value?

    About a month ago I bought a nice smooth black leather pancake holster at a gun show for my 4" S&W Model 10. It has the double belt slots on the front and has a thumb break. While looking at it at the show I couldn't really read the maker's mark on it. Anyway I was looking at it more closely...

    Smith & Wesson Victory Model

    I went to the gun show this morning mainly looking for a MKII 22/45 and that blue DAG 7.62 NATO ammo. Well I didn't find either of those. What I did find was my first revolver, a S&W Victory Model for $200! I've been looking for a Pencil barreled Model 10 for about a year now. My jaw nearly...

    Mauser G98 price?

    I'm currently looking at a 1905 DWM Gewher 98 with all matching numbers. (however I couldn't seem to find a number on the bolt itself, strange) It's in pretty nice shape. The stock looks excellent, no major dings or scrapes, and hasn't been refinished. The metal also is good condition and...

    Illinois Handloaders, which component is restricted?

    I had mostly a hypothetical question tonight. Illinois requires a FOID card to buy ammunition. For those who reload, and live in Illinois, what is considered "ammunition" out of the four reloading components? I'd think the primer, but it really could be any of the four. Thanks.

    Remington Model 10, at LGS

    I was in the local gun shop today and found myself seriously considering a nice looking Remington Model 10 12 gauge. The metal looked really nice with lots of patina, nothing in the white. The mechanism wasn't the smoothest, but probably just needs to be cleaned up. Nothing rattled, lockup was...

    Current FOID Wait Time

    Hello all, us here in Illinois have these awful things called FOID cards, I'm sure you have heard of them. Mine expired April 1, 2011. I had sent in my application somewhere around the 15th of March (I know, should have sent it earlier). Any how, just got my new card today, about nine weeks...

    Where did the 7.62x25 Surplus Ammo Go?

    I've been watching the Tokarev market (both pistols and ammunition) for the past few months with the plan to buy a pistol and at least one tin of surplus ammo come summer. Well I've seen pistols come and go at J&G's, AIM, and Dan's, but they just got them in at Classic Arms, and Widener's still...

    Buck Customer Service Disappointment

    Last summer I bought a Buck Vantage Pro online from Walmart (not a WM fan, but the price was good, and no shipping for instore pickup). First off, I had some moderate blade-centering issues, but it wasn't actually rubbing the liner at this point. After carrying it for a couple of months, the...
