      M1 Garand stock woodwork

      I actually might try. Seems simple enough for me a woodwork beginner.

      Broke my Remington shotgun in half...

      Glad to see everyone went home unharmed. You should be good to go in regards to NFA. It's not the barrel that got shortened :)

      animated video of how an AK 47 works

      Thanks for the video. Imagine trying to design all that on paper in the old days before computers and CAD drawings. The guy was a genius.

      M1 Garand stock woodwork

      thank you all for the responses. I'll definitely try clean her up and get that shiny stuff off followed by some BLO finish or pure Tung oil.

      M1 Garand stock woodwork

      I'm trying to replace the rear piece of the upper hand guard of my M1, but the piece I got through the mail was slightly mismatched in the finish due to the coating being slightly worn. The rest of the stock seem to have this shiny gloss to it over a dark colored wood stock. Has anyone ever deal...

      Remington 700 Police

      Thank you all for the info shared here. I thoroughly enjoyed reading through all the responses here and learning many new things. I think I might wait a bit and see if I can pick up a used one somewhere that is an older production. I kept hearing about quality control issues since Remington was...

      Remington 700 Police

      Thinking about buying this for my next precision setup. Anyone on here has one and would like to share your experience with this particular model? Thank you.

      Concealed carry purses?

      No offense to anyone using CC purse, but imho I don't like the idea of not having a weapon directly on the body. Purses can be snatched, left by accident, stolen, etc etc. I've also read of a couple cases where toddlers find their ways into a purse and shot the mom/grandma. Let's face it, most...

      What to look for in a suppressor?

      Here is the question though. Aside from being heavier, what else differs between a subsonic 223 and a subsonic 22lr ?

      Problem with Glock 43 factory sites.

      100 yards is quite a bit for a pistol. Are you shooting from a rest? Your best bet is a sight tool that will allow you to drift the rear sight over to the right more. If you don't have a sight tool you can probably try drift it by tapping the rear sight using a punch, but I recommend against...

      Varmint Hunting Rifle

      I've seen 17hmr does really well on paper. Seems like a logical choice between 22lr and full powered 223. Haven't witnessed anyone I know who used it on the field yet. How well does it do as far as the terminal ballistics on flesh go?

      Choice of 308 deer hunting round weights?

      I haven't had much luck on paper with Sierra Gameking projectiles. Seems like my group triples in size compared to Matchkings. It might not matter much when it comes to hitting a deer's vitals. Have you experience large deviation like this on your rifle?

      It's cold enough to test now

      Another thing worth testing is ammo in the cold for rifles. I've seen point of impact shifts quite a bit when you leave out ammo in extreme cold. Leave both the rifle and the ammo out and do a cold-bore shoot. Might save you from missing a game when the hunt is on. I know I'm I pistol forum but...

      Wife gave me $600 to spend on myself, what should I use it for?

      You should get yourself a milsurp of some sort.... like a mosin or a Swiss k31. Worse case you can sell it for what you bought it for as long as you don't overpay for it
