I have a problem with a Kimber Pro Carry II ejecting spent brass back in the shooters face. The gun was purchased new several years ago and has always had this problem. Initially it sent about 33% on spent brass back in the shooters face. It is an internal-extractor model like a standard...

I found a local guy selling a TC Contender with a .233 14" barrel, hammer extension, bushnell magnum phantom 2.5x scope, and case. This appears to be an older model, not the G2. Finish is blued. Can anyone give their opinion on what a good price would be? Thanks, PAC

I was watching a Myth Busters episode where they were trying to see how fast a single-action revolver could be fired. They built a rig to hold a cap & ball revolver with its trigger down. They then used a paddle attachment on an electric drill to fan the hammer. The result was more than one...

I am going through some old records trying to see what I can shred and have a question. I've transferred a couple handguns to residents of different states and have always done so legally by having an FFL holder do the paperwork. Do I need to save the receipts for these transfers? For...

I installed a timney trigger in a turk mauser about a year ago, but hadn't had a chance to shoot it until recently. I dry fired it approx 100 times and fired about 30 rounds at the range when it suddenly stopped shooting. It appears that the rifle is not staying cocked and the striker is...

Delaware has restrictions on most NFA weapons, so I never really considered them before. However, I recently realized that SBRs are allowed in my state, and I'm considering sending in a form 1 to build a semiauto Mk18 clone. I just had a few questions... There is a very good chance that I...

A buddy of mine just returned from afghannyland and was kind enough to give me a bunch of his now unneeded gear. Among the treasure trove (sp?) of goodies was an M-16 carry handle mount that looks exactly like this: http://www.nightvisionplanet.com/v/vspfiles/photos/Aimpoint-10174-2.jpg...

I just got a Taurus PT-99 (PT-92 with adjustable sights). Are there any brands of magazines to look for or to avoid? Also, does anyone have links to sights that sell decent magazines for a good price? Thanks, PAC

I usually carry a 1911 IWB. However, pressure from the kindey strap makes this uncomfortable while backpacking. How do you guys carry while backpacking? Are shoulder holsters any good? If it matters, I use an ALICE ruck for backpacking. Additionally, I do not want to carry openly, which...

I have a friend that is looking for a general purpose / deer hunting rifle. His specs seem simple enough, but I cannot find an of-the-shelf model that fits his requirements, and I'm affraid he can not afford a semi-custom rifle. Any idea where he can find a rifle that meets the following...

Does anyone have any experience with these stocks? http://www.savagearms.com/10fpfoldingchoate.htm I'm trying to decide between this and the HS Precision.

I am searching for a usable, two-handed battle axe. I have absolutely no respectable reason to own one other than a passion for destroying stuff. I had a nice all steal home-made job I got off ebay years ago, but it lost its last battle with a television and is now in valhalla. I like the...

On page 535 of unintended consequences, the author describes Henry having a steel box welded to the floor of his truck and locked with a keypad... kind of like those keypad pistol safes. Henry states that an police officer would need a warrant to search it. Does anyone know if there is any...

I'm not sure where to put this. Mods please move if there is a better place. I've heard people say that an M79 would be a DD w/ a $200 tax, and each round of HE ammo would also be $200. If this is the case, can one legally purchase a frag hand grenade for cost + $200 tax? If so, where does...

Can someone point me in the durection of companies that make AR uppers in this configuration?

Can someone please provide me with the dimensions of a ching sling? I'm specifically looking for the length of the center piece and how far away the stopper is from the front sling swivel. Thanks, PAC

Does anyone know if a pre-1899 "antique" rifle can have the barrel cut down below 16" without filing a form 4 and paying the tax? I just saw something online and the author said they were regulated the same as muzzel loaders.... got me thinking a little. :evil:

I'm building a scout rifle and I'm trying to decide on whether to add a flash suppressor. I have a nice looking one that is not tapped, so it would not be hard to get the barrel threaded for a compatible thread, but it will make the rifle over Cooper's 1 meter limit. What are your opinions...

I picked up 5 turk m38 mausers from SOG for $55 each. I was thinking of making one into a pseudo-scout. While looking for scope mounting ideas, I though aqbout just drilling & tapping the rear sight ladder for a section of picantinny rail. Does anyone know whether this will be stable? I see...
