    Best Ranges/Gun shops in San Antonio?

    I shoot at Bracken alot, but also hit up Dietz and Cedar Ridge I live in the NE Area. That means Bracken, Dietz and Cedar Ridge are the closest. Everything else is on the South or West sides of town, for me a decent drive. FWIW Bullet hole is a cool place. Michelle who runs the front is...

    SKS Decision..

    I would get a stock thats not iffy, try and find a good russian one thats what I would do :) You could probably sell or trade the plastic furniture for one maybe and or sell it for ammo money :) Either way I think you have done well with it regardless what furniture you choose to use with it...

    Yugo SKS or Mosin Nagant for a first long gun?

    Ill add a few coals into the fire here :) My first centerfire Long Gun was the Mosin m44. Everything that has already been mentioned about the noise, the recoil on the shoulder etc... is very true. :) Ton of fun though. When you see that big ol ball of flame out the front end and people...

    2 sks's, one with a problem.....

    just try swapping the gas valve and the spring and see if your rifle exhibits the same symptoms, then try it with just one of them swapped, maybe you can pinpoint which one is the guilty party, Yugo 59/66s are known though for the gas valve issues so it may be worth getting your hands on one of...

    SKS Decision..

    Already asked, but is the 10/22 your one and only rifle? everyone should have a .22 but.... like also stated the 10/22 is a dime a dozen, well considering the SKS is not all that hard to find either you can say the same thing, you and only you have to decide what would serve you better, again...

    Ok new to guns, been to the range a good bit, but have some questions

    These are all great suggestions thus far, I can only say practice practice practice, my only suggestion is try and go whenever possible when its just you or a very minimal amount of people. When the firining line is full up its tough because everyone else is popping off rounds and can really be...

    celebrating the Red Army day

    Well hell, if I had known feb 23rd was the RED army day I would have burned off some 7.62 in the 54R and the 39 variety for the occassion LOL :) Its ok, gives my Mosins and SKS something to look forward too. Maybe its an excuse to be sure to have an AK style rifle and or a Tokarev Pistol by...

    For those who don't think Mosins are accurate..

    Thats the beauty of being a 120 lb 5feet 4inch guy :) Im more classified as a youth or a female shooter if you will, all shorter lop guns feel just right to me where other folks seem to think otherwise :) I guess thats why the Mosin just felt right to me :) It feels so perfect in my hands...

    Recoil pad for Mosin 91/30?

    I just recently helped a friend replace a firing pin for an el cheapo saturday night special gun, one of those raven pocket pistols in .25acp, after calling every shop in town and getting nowhere I turned to online resources. SARCO was the only place I could find to help me locate the part. It...

    new toy, did i get hosed?

    cool looking gun, like the gent stated above, if you personally shoot it well and can place your lead exactly where you want it, ie the dead center of your target or right where that beautiful buck will drop on the spot, its worth every penny :) and who cares what others think, as long as its...

    Recoil pad for Mosin 91/30?

    Best recommendation I can say is the small size limbsaver from walmart, yea they are a bit more but its a perfect fit. Its also a prefect fit on my SKS. Do I actually need it, no. But all of my friends seem to be scared to death when I drag them to the range and so they request it. I throw...

    wow, what an interesting read here :) Being a Mosin fanboy I dont really want to add coals to the fire, and being that I have limited hands on experiences with them than you folks, I cant comment much. But a few things stick out at me in this whole saga thats being played out here. You...
