I am able to get an 1895gs for super cheap but I like the look of the 6 shot magazine tube. I have looked and am not able to find a SS tube for 6 shot anywhere. Can somebody point me where to find one I will be going to gunsmithing school and figured I could switch the tubes as a project if its...

I use a lee pro auto disk and I'm running bullseye through it. I want to get an adjustable charge bar to make the loads more accurate but I read something in the lee manual that concerns me, it said "Do not use flake powder in any cavity under .4cc" Bullseye is a flake powder and with the auto...

Howdy all, I'm new here and new to reloading. I have a 1873 sharps 45/70, a 10mm, and a .357 mag and all of those are expensive rounds, so I want to learn how to roll my own. First off, any general advice on equipment? I am a broke college student so I'll probably go with Lee brand but is there...

Hello everyone! I recently got bit buy the muzzleloader bug, and got a CVA wolf. I was curious especially on powder charges, and how much is safe for a 295 grain powerbelt in a .50 cal. I’m using 777 FFFP, and unfortunately I’m in Idaho, so musket caps to be NW compliant. What are some safe...

I’m new to the AR building world, and am finishing a build soon. My hang ups are I don’t know which upper to go with, as well as bolt carrier group, or even how much it matters. I’m as of right now thinking I’ll do a bear creek arsenal upper in .223 Wylde with a Nitrid3 Syst3ms bolt carrier...

I am newbie when it comes to guns, but want to get into them. I saw a similar thread about buying a complete upper and lower would you have a complete gun, excluding accessories, mags, or ammo. I wanted to ask a couple more questions on top of that. Keep in mind these might be dumb questions...

Hey there, this is my first day on the forum. I will be moving out of my parents place in roughly a year and living aboard a sailboat (yes, I know it's crazy). But I don't want to be out on a boat on my own where no help would be able to come for a while if I got into trouble. So I would like to...

First i know 54 cal is not a 500 yard firearm, that being said at local range they have a group that does 50 cal or larger at 500 yards (just for fun and to do best at trying) must be purcusion cap or flint lock and iron sights. I would like to try this some mord but need some advise. So here...

What are things to look at be for shooting a old gun and does a iver Johnson .38 have a firing pin

So I bought a used wasr 10 about 9 months ago and Ive taken it to the range about 3 times, now it's starting to rust on the inside of the receiver (under the rails /in other small crevices) and also outside (in crevices on the sight mount). Ive only used tulammo and that's suppose to be non...

Hello all! I recently inherited a Remington .270 Model 700 from a family member and it is rusted pretty good. I hate to see it in such bad shape as these guns were always well taken care of until my grandfather was hospitalized.. So I would LOVE some advice on how to/what to use to clean it...

Hey all, my AR is still not working. Today I went to my LGS and found they were having a going out of business sale, decided to get the above pictured fore end cap just on the off chance that my gas block was misaligned with the gas port in the barrel and that's why my gun wasn't getting enough...

Back when I was very limited on what powders I could find at my LGS. I foolishly bought a pound of 800-x to satisfy my need for a powder that useable in 9mm, .44mag, and .45 acp. During my last reloading session I was loading up some cast 215 grain lrn pills for .45 acp. I set my measure to drop...

so I had another thread named p238vs bodyguard. I just was able to shoot a lcp and a p238 5 rounds a piece. I shot them both the same. The ruger is more snappy but not horrible. I need urgent help in deciding. Sig for 450 used older model serial starts with dao. Or brand new lcp for 200. I need...

So, I'm a young guy. Not new to shooting, but new to some of the more esoteric stuff. Even done a little bit of handloading. And yet, I still don't really know why so many people look for buttplates to old mags. One of my first pistols was a CZ52, and one of the old timers in my spirtsman club...

Hey everyone, My local LGS guy offered me what seems to be a pretty good deal on a DSA Fal ($1200). It has the upgraded scope rail on top and a magpul PRS stock as well. He claims its maybe had a magazine or two through it (they took it in on a trade). The gun is definitely in like-new...

So I'm redoing a 1912 Chilean Mauser for a buddy but the rear sling loop is gone. All that is left is the base with the eyelet. I tried a Mexican one but it's not the right base. I need it to fit the stock exactly and work! Any ideas would be great!:banghead:

Hey, guys. Been browsing the forums as a non-member for a while now and figured I might as well join, seeing as how your discussions have already helped me learn about my hand-me-down 1964 Ruger Standard. I recently acquired a Mossberg 500 12ga and decided to try and break it down to...

Hey all, I need to start out by saying up front I am a newbie at reloading. I am reloading the following brass, bullets etc... and something odd is happening and I am not sure what. Hopefully someone can square me away. Remington brass (.40 S&W) Berrys Preferred Plated Bullets 155gr Flat...
