    Best WWII bolt action rifle

    I own two Mosins, with my M29 Finnish being a pretty good shot besides the fact it had a rusted bore, but penetration oil and 20 rounds of non corrosive shot through it have done much to get rid of the ruddy rust. The finnish gets about 3 MOA when I'm sitting, about 2.5 when I am on the bench...

    Milling Questions

    I would be doing the project openly, and with approval from the relevant authorities. The college is in Florida so I doubt laws will be too much of an issue, but I will become familiar with them so that I stay within the law. I do not wish to endanger myself nor anyone else, and the university...

    7.62 Tokarev

    For me it is currently between 9x18 Makarov and 7.62 Tokarev, but because i have seen a tokarev mangle a piece of ballistic gel I really, really have fallen in love with it. I see the loud blast of the gun as useful as it will attract attention in case I miss, and get a better chance of someone...

    Martial arts that pair well with gun use?

    So, as a college student, I currently cannot carry a gun on campus, especially since I live on campus. As such, I want to learn some martial arts, but I would prefer to learn some that can be used if/when I begin carrying to improve my chances of retaining hold of my gun in the case of an...

    Why the anti-left flak?

    I am a bit appalled at the fact that the people in this forum could be so short sighted to think left wing automatically equals no gun rights. I do not support most republican/conservatives out here because it is other issues that take higher priority in my discretion of candidates. I am not a...

    Milling Questions

    I believe that my case means I do not need an FFL, as I do not intend sell the weapon, but merely use it's a way for me to learn more about milling and decide if I wish to make and design firearms as a career.

    7.62 Tokarev

    How is the 7.62 Tokarev round when compared to other common pistol rounds? I liked the feel of it when I fired it, compared to 45ACP (too powerful) and the 9mm ( Okay, but I did not like the Hi Power I fired) It felt snappy, while retaining the characteristics of a lighter round I liked. I am...

    NRA and bad law block a way to catch killers?

    Microstamping is simply not logistically feasible. It is yet another invasion of privacy, just like CISPA it is designed to track people from an unconventional angle. Gun crime will always exist, to a certain degree, and this would still not solve the causes of gun related crime, such as...

    Cast vs non-cast bullets

    I totally forgot about those. I am still new to the cast bullet subjects and I forget it has stuff like that.

    Milling Questions

    At my college they have a full service machine shop for mechanical engineers. If I had the opportunity, would it be possible and legal for me to mill an AK receiver for my own personal use? Of course, it would not be a full auto AK, it would conform to semi auto specifications. Second...

    Cast vs non-cast bullets

    I have thought about casting my own bullets eventually, but I have a few questions: Can cast bullets handle high velocities that regular bullets can? What are cheap sources of lead. Wheel weights or what? Are there spitzer style cast bullet molds available?

    New Member? Introduce yourself here (just intros, questions get answered elsewhere)

    Hello. I am a student in Melbourne, FL, currently enrolled to Florida Tech. I aspire to be a mechanical engineer, and as such, I have some interest in weaponry. I currently own 2 Mosins, a G98 Mauser, a T99 Arisaka and I aim to purchase a TT33 eventually. I wrote a senior project on 7.62x54R vs...
