      Need authentic wood furniture for Romanian SAR1

      Are the black US grips not required any longer? At one time there was a requirement for a minimum number of US made parts, but Ive not kept up on this. Seems like the follower in the mag, maybe, was one US part?

      Rugerlin?..

      Maybe Ruger can finally build a .22 that doesnt need half the parts upgraded?

      Looking for some advice...

      Get a Savage or a Marlin. You will have to spend more money on upgrades to get a Ruger to shoot as well as a Savage or Marlin right out of the box. The old Mossbergs are ok, but the triggers are not.

      Richmond Gun and Knife Show December 15th & 16th 2018

      "Santa was all suited up and selling ammo like hotcakes." Santa was there, but with overpriced ammo. I didn't see anything there I couldn't find elsewhere for much less. Seems like half the show was crafts / garage sale items.

      Opinions on Mossberg Patriot, Ruger American, Savage Axis

      Remington 783. Accurate, better trigger, and pillar bedded.

      300 Yard Deer Rifle

      The new Remington budget gun is a Remington 783. It is not the 770. These are much different guns.

      300 Yard Deer Rifle

      "Much better than the rifle Remington is putting out in that price range"...based on what? The Remington 783 is made using much of Marlin's previous designs. It also has an adjustable trigger, is pillar bedded, free floated, has a thicker barrel profile, and has many reviews showing its...

      Looking for a recommendation for scope rings

      I'm looking for recommendations on scope rings. The rifle is a Remington bolt action .308, it came with a scope/rings/bases but I'm looking to upgrade. I have Warne steel bases, a Vortex 4-12x40 scope, but am not sure what rings to use. I have a new set of Weaver Quad locks, but wondering if...

      Bolt Action/Tube Fed .22LR Questions

      Boyds has laminate stocks for the XT 22 tube fed rifles. I believe you have to also get a trigger guard and a couple of screws from either Marlin or Numrich/Midway/Brownells etc. May be able to call an order a hardwood version as well?

      Info request on scope mount and rings

      I think you're right. The upper portions have a different finish and different contour than the bottoms.

      Info request on scope mount and rings

      No names on anything that I can see. The base has what looks like a circle with either a letter or a number in it (but I cant make it out) its on the side just below the front ring. Might be a K, could be an R, or could be a 2 digit number "1" something.

      Info request on scope mount and rings

      Anyone know which mount and rings are in the pic? Looking to upgrade the scope and wanting to know if the hardware already on here is sufficient. Thinking about a Nikon scope.
