      Carrying at work

      I'm so proud of my work place although it has its problems. My main beef is that I am on-call 365 days a year, 24 hours a day. I travel the whole state and then some as part of my job. It's a real drag. Company policy had been that weapons were not allowed on company property or in company...

      Remove bayonet from an M44?

      Has anyone tried to remove the bayonet and mounting "lump" from a Mosin M44? I'm talking about doing a nice job of it, effectively ending up with am M38 style rifle. I'm not wanting to try to fool anyone, I'd rather have an M38 but they are hard to find at a decent price. I love my M44 and I...

      Problem with Bushmasrer Mag

      I tried this thread in Accessories but didn't get any answers so I thought I'd try here. I bought a Bushmaster 30 round magazine for my new AR. I haven't had a chance to fire the weapon or use the magazine beyond loading the magazine. The stock mag that came with the AR (Olympic Arms) loaded...

      Bushmaster 30 round magazine

      I bought a Bushmaster 30 round magazine for my new AR. I haven't had a chance to fire the weapon or use the magazine beyond loading the magazine. The stock mag that came with the AR (Olympic Arms) loaded fine, but I thought I'd never get the Bushmaster loaded! The rounds seem to be catching...

      New AR

      Well, I finally got my first (and the way things are going, probably my last) AR-15. My experience with the AR family is limited to "my" M-16A1 from the Army. I never had the chance to even fire one again until last year when my Son-in-law bought the Smith & Wesson AR, the one without the dust...

      Springfield 1911-A1 Mil-Spec 45ACP Stainless

      I've seen several photos of the above mentioned weapon and some of them say "Made in Brazil"?! Anybody know for sure where the stainless Mil-Spec is made?

      Opinions: 1911 external extractor ok?

      I'm still looking for my 1911. I had bought a Remington R1 and had nothing but trouble with it; failing to go into battery. On the third trip back to the factory I told them to either replace it or preferably, refund my purchase price. They are buying it back from me. Too bad because I really...

      Got my first 1911!

      I just last week got my first 1911, a Remington R1. I've only put 50 rounds through it so far but I like it. I qualified on the 1911 in the Army but it has been the early '70s since I've fired one. I'm wanting to pick up a couple 8 round magazines for it and was wondering if anyone had any...

      To save me some calling/running around, does anyone know if a gun shop around Indy carries JB Bore Bright. Thanks in advance!

      Marlin Model 80 DL magazine problem

      I'm refurbing a Marlin Model 80 DL for my brother-in-law. He got it from his Father who recently passed away. I'm just giving it a good cleaning and oiling and refinished the stock. It was missing the magazine. I found one at the gun show in Seymour Saturday and the vendor told me I may have to...

      Found me an M44!

      Ever since I bought my 1934 Tula 91/30, I've wanted an M38 or M44. Well, I found an M44 walking around at the 1500 on Saturday! It's a 1945 Izhevsk (I gotta find out how to pronounce that!) It's not perfect; it's been counterbored and all numbers match except that the magazine floor plate is...

      Cracks in case of surplus 7.62x25 ammo

      I bought some surplus 7.62x25 ammo at Bradis today and noticed cracks in the case neck. I examined only the top two layers in the box. Out of 14 rounds, 6 are cracked near or through the marks where the neck is staked to the bullet. I can't tell from the print on the box where the ammo was...

      This seems just too stupid to believe

      I was at a Barnes & Noble's book store the other day thumbing through a gun magazine. There was a full-page full-color advertisement for Concealed Carry Badges!? What kinda sad LEO wanna-be would actually buy one of these? Carry concealed and then wear a badge proclaiming that you're carrying...

      Guns seized from Indy teen-agers

      Channel 13 News just showed some weapons seized from area teenagers. One of them was a Mosin Nagant M44! From what I could see it looked to be in pretty good condition, unlike one revolver that looked like it had been dragged behind a truck. P1sses me off because I have been wanting an M38 or...

      Bolt difficulty with my Mosin Nagant

      I finally got to fire my 1934 Tula 1891/30 this past Sunday. I only put 10 rounds through it; I guess my shoulder isn't as fully recovered from the surgery as I thought it was. I'm still sore. I've read everything I can find on this rifle before I ever took it out to fire so I anticipated some...

      Mosin Nagant Oil/Solvent container question

      I was wondering if anyone knows which side of the Oil/Solvent container is which. One side has a Cyrillic character that looks like an up-side down m and the other is closer to an h. I know, as long as I know which is which, that's all that matters. I think it would be cool to put the stuff in...

      Where can I fire my Mosin Nagant?

      I've had my 1891/30 since the last 1500. I have the cosmoline cleaned off and am ready to shoot it, but don't know a nearby range that can handle this rifle. Any ideas? Thanks.

      Advice on my new(old) Mosin Nagant 1891/30

      I have a 1934 Tula 1891/30 (my first!)that I got at the last 1500. I have it cleaned up and, I think, ready to fire. I need to wait for my shoulder to heal before I can even think about firing it. I'm not sure about lubrication. I have just enough oil on the bolt for it to operate...
