    Unsure about a Vz 58 (2008?)

    This is what I was afraid of. Trying to get back into contact now. Definitely would never trade an AR for a 2008 either. :mad: **Yep, he sent me more pics. Turns out it is a Century. I was happy to pass along some firearms knowledge to him though, and really happy I didn't have to use any gas!

    Unsure about a Vz 58 (2008?)

    On one of my FB classified pages a guy wants to trade his Vz 58 for an AR. Before I go through with it I am obviously doing my research. I asked the gentleman if it is a Czech made Vz 58 (czechpoint/dtechnik) or a CAI Vz 2008. He said it was Czech made and that the magazines are surplus. I...

    Public Shooting Range Dress Code?

    I would definitely require Eyes, Ears and closed-toe shoes. All of the other stuff I don't really care about. People should be allowed to dress however they want as long as it isn't over the top. Gang related wear? Well I am in Idaho so no real issues with that. I've been to concerts and...

    .22LR Shortage..? This might give you hope.?.!

    I keep forgetting that CCI is Idaho based. I may just have to start buying exclusively from them. I do love my Federal Auto-Match though...

    Which Cartridge Shortage Is Causing You the Most Angst?

    Definitely .22LR. Followed by 9x19. When the panic struck again I said, "Fine, I'll just shoot my .22's for the time being." What ticks me off the most about it is I don't understand why it's gone. Not like .22's are the target of bans. 9mm was the second cheapest I shot and it sucks...

    Oregon HB 3200-Holy Cow!

    There are also the Californians that moved there to get away from the anti's. I hope for the best of my neighbors. I don't want to go to jail while visiting my grandma in eastern OR just because I may have left a dreaded "assault weapon" in my truck.

    What do you do to get away from all this "gun drama"?

    While I like to shoot to get things off my mind, the scarcity of ammo and poor weather has kept me from doing that. Lately, I've gotten back into other hobbies like car and home audio to spend my money on. I'm also thinking about trying to get a youtube channel going. Also, driving my new...

    I think it looks pretty nice.

    Bare shelves here, how about there?

    I've been too afraid and busy to check. Before I left to visit family in CA, ~Dec. 20th. All the magazines for popular firearms were gone. Ammo was still readily available and most of it for a fair price (at least at Cabela's). That was a month ago. I've been back for a week now and...

    And now a word from the Idaho State Government on guns

    I love this state. But this doesn't mean much if restrictions on a national level are enacted.

    In spite of the palpable anger the very existence of this rifle will cause

    There is only one true Guide Gun and it belongs to Marlin.

    Rail attachment that doesn't exist, but should?

    How about a bayonet lug adapter? It wouldnt work on all rails, or maybe it could. I just hate losing the ability to mount a bayonet after installing a rail/free float tube.

    Consider Texas

    Moved right up to ID and out of CA when I could for school. I plan on staying here. Considered Texas and other states as well. But Idaho is pretty low-key which I like. Just trying to convince the parents to sell some of the properties when time allows for them to move up with me. Some...

    Were you a gun owner during the 1994-2004 Assault Weapons Ban?

    Yes. I experienced the ban until about 2010. I am a CA refugee. I was only 14 when the ban sunset, my dad owned guns and I had a 10/22 I received when I turned 7 I think. I remember thinking that civilians could purchase full-auto rifles and what-not but then dad had to explain to me the...

    HK MR556.... Range report to follow soon...

    Love those HK sights. I think the rifle will serve you well. What exactly did you have to modify on the older PMAGs?

    So i managed to jam a Howa

    Well we were young kids who didn't know any better. Besides too many of those danged things caused a lot of telephone pole damage. Bird Law be damned. **From my research I can only conclude that it may be a ptarmigan. Just tell us the Sapmi word for it, google can do the rest.

    So i managed to jam a Howa

    I thought you meant normal birds on a fence post or something. Like shooting crows and woodpeckers on my friends property with a rimfire. I agree with the other posters, its a bad idea to be using a centerfire shooting at those angles. The bullet can travel a long ways. Wth is that bird?!

    So i managed to jam a Howa

    Bird hunting with a .223? I take it you mean stationary birds, but then that .22 would be more than enough. Idk, carry Bear spray and a .357 or .44. As to the sticky casing. Fired brass is already expanded and doesn't chamber well until it's been prepped. You're not going to be feeding a...

    Front rest for hunting rifle

    I have a Lead-Sled solo that works well. I do like using multiple sandbags sometimes. If you are talking about field use, then shooting sticks are great. I had a chance to use some awhile back and whenever I go hunting again I'm going to get some. I have a Harris 6-9 bipod, but it is...
