    Rusty M1 Carbine

    I am surprised they recommended bead blasting vs. sand blasting. I was always told bead blasting peens the metal, and painted finishes are less likely to adhere well.

    My house was broken into..........

    You should be mad at your wife. She should be mad at herself. You should both be mad at each other for not insisting on getting a security system installed. You should both take it as a lesson learned, and move on. She shouldn't have been intimidated, but she was. I bet she won't be the next...

    What's the cost of converting a Saiga?

    Saiga conversion I've done it, and thouroghly enjoyed it. It is a very durable machine, with a degree of elegent simplicity to it. You can go as high end or low end on replacement parts as you wish. I used higher end parts. I also like the look of the Saiga handguard so I kept it. To make...

    CZ "Single Set Trigger"?

    I have been looking at either a CZ 452 Varmint in 17 HMR., or a CZ 453 Varmint in 17 HMR. CZ lists the difference between the two as a "Single Set Trigger" vs. Adjustable trigger. What is the CZ single set trigger? (Please don't just say it is "not adjustable.") I am somewhat familair with...

    Anyone have experiance with this AK builder?

    I don't have any knowledge of Heavy Metal Guns. My question is what is your budget. If you are looking for a good AK, or if you are looking for a great one? I have two Saiga's. One I converted to 922 compliance (which was a fun project.). The other is a Krebs Custom. Marc Krebs is at the...

    Using brake cleaner on factory camo guns?

    Armedbear, as far as cleaning the gun the "Olde Fashioned way?" you ought to see the inside of this silly Beretta. (One of the reasons I love my 870's) I definetly would have to read the manual to break this thing down to clean it. I can get it to forearm, barrel, nut and receiver w/ stock...

    Using brake cleaner on factory camo guns?

    Will brake cleaner take the (painted?) finish off of camo guns? My boss has a Beretta 12 gauge auto duck gun with a factory camo finish. This gas gun needs a good cleaning. I know Gunscrubber and brake cleaner are very close in composition. Is this stuff safe to use on the factory Beretta...

    What is the best way to deal with panhandlers?

    My coworker got asked for a cigarette, replied he did not smoke, he kept walking, the guy walked with him, then sucker punched him in the eye. Then both of the guys he was walking with got jumped by two more guys hiding in the bushes. This happened a couple of weeks ago in the "safe" city of...

    Who could put choke tubes in my single shot?

    It may or may not be worth the expense, but Trulock could do it. (You will have to decide for your self about the sentimal value of the gun vs. just spending the money on a second gun.) From what I understand Trulock is the top of the line for removable chokes. I have been on the fence for a...

    Possible to rebarrel Vanguard 30.06 into varmint rig?

    My dad is a very fit and young 74. Things like setting up his rifle for him to go hunting, mounting scopes, zeroing actions, are just stuff I have always done for him. A member on a different board suggested I look into a 25-06. In this case, I would probably just send the rifle out, have it...
