    Restoring an 1892 Winchester

    Recently my girlfriend's grandfather passed away, and she finally became aware with the rest of the family about two guns that he had in the basement. One was a Type 99 Arisaka, which I have some familiarity with due to my C&R license. The other gun really caught my fancy though, a Winchester...

    Ruger 10/22, Heavy Barrels, and Iron Sights

    So I saw that www.tech-sights.com finally released their heavy barrel iron sight adaptor, so I snatched it up along with their service rifle style sights and stuck it on my 10/22 w/green mountain bbl and hogue stock: So far so good after about 500 rounds between the other day and yesterday...

    Mossberg 500 problem- ejecting from magazine

    Well, this has just cropped up recently. Got the gun in September, ran maybe 200-300 rounds through it at the range and took it hunting a few times for geese. Never had any problems then. Last two range trips, a problem has cropped up. When shooting, the round in the magazine is ejecting...

    Help: replacing front sight ramp, Marlin 981T

    Well I put a Williams receiver sight on my recently purchased Marlin 981t. Can't stand the stock sights on it. Anyway, I got the windage taken care of today, except I was hitting 10 inches high at 50 yards! Clearly I need a taller front sight. The front sight is not dovetailed, so it looks...

    Gunbelts

    Well, I don't CCW yet, but I probably will as soon as I get this darned NY pistol permit. My current belt is starting to go though, so I figured I should go for a good gunbelt for the future rather than something flimsy. What are some good affordable options for every day wear? Are all good gun...

    Mosin Nagant m91/30 mini-range-report

    Well, I set out with my Mosin Nagant yesterday to shoot it, since I haven't shot it since I first got it in the summertime. I fired my first 9 shots for groups before shooting for fun at silhouettes. I got some roughly 3 inch groups, and then one that I believe is just under 2 inches...

    NY Times Gun disinformation! (not like you didn't expect that!)

    I hope I'm posting this to the right spot, if I should have posted this to Legal and Political instead, no problem if a mod moves it. http://www.nytimes.com/2004/11/23/national/23gun.html?oref=login Hmm, so it looks like this is being used to gear up for more gun control efforts. We can't...

    Gun Safe question, moving

    With my C&R collection, it's definately time to get a gun safe. My parents don't mind either, since my dad and brother need a place for their shotguns and such as well. We already have a spot picked out, and so on. Well, how exactly do we go about getting this from Gander Mountain and into...

    Squirrels and an AR-15?

    So I noticed in a thread over in the Rifle forum about the FAB-10 that some guys use them for hunting squirrels. I have only gone after squirrels a few times and only got one heh, with my .22. I liked it though, but I always thought my AR-15 would be a bit too much to use on a squirrel. I'd...

    All of my guns are at high risk of drowning right now

    http://waterdata.usgs.gov/ny/nwis/uv?site_no=01428500 So, my true home is upstate right on the upper Delaware river. Usually nice, and flooding has almost never been a threat. But now it is almost as deep as it once got in 1955. I'm in NYC right now, just came here yesterday after being...

    CMP help question

    Well, I hope this is the right forum for it. I'm trying to get my M1 garand to help round out my WWII collection, but I'm not exactly what I'm supposed to put in that colored box on page four of the form: http://www.odcmp.com/Forms/1orderform.pdf Any help? Pics will follow when I get...

    Another new shooter brought into the fold

    I went with my girlfriend, her brother, and their mom, to visit their grandparents and uncle in PA the other week. That uncle likes me because we both like guns heh, and my girlfriend and I have gone shooting with him before, in fact, his handguns are the first handguns I've ever shot. Still are...

    Old Beat up Carcano question (pics)

    My friend has an old Carcano that he probably paid too much for at an auction. I think it got more beat up during the years he had it since he was young and didn't really treat it like a real gun. I didn't know any better at the time, not being into guns THAT much at that point. It was just an...

    Took a new Shooter out

    Well, first off I'm still pretty young, 21 years old. I grew up in NYC and went upstate on weekends, and went to school at the United Nations International School. So I took a friend from high school out shooting on Friday. He's an interesting guy having been born in Hong Kong, but he's...
