    I love it when a plan comes together! (Mini-14GB)

    Thanks to (and in spite of) Ruger, all my childhood A-Team fantasies can finally come true! I think Ruger would be smart to offer their regular Minis in 16" barrel flavor. It's a much handier package.

    Cleaning non-hook breech rifles

    A trip to the local Cabelas over the weekend has me looking at their "Blue Ridge" rifles, which appear to be Pedersoli Frontier models. I really want a percussion model, but I have a question. It doesn't appear to have a hooked breech. What is the normal cleaning procedure for such a beast...

    Which one of these should I sell?

    I recently went a bit overboard with my gun purchases. I now need to sell at least one of these to pay off my debt. Which one should I part with? S&W 14-4 S&W 66-5 Keeping one is unfortunately not an option. :(

    Tactical Solutions Buckmark Review

    I finally got out to try my new Buckmark Barrel from Tactical Solutions. It was a beautiful day, but the wind was gusting really hard at times. Here's the gun, along with my Taurus 63. I shot Aguila SE standard velocity, Win Dynapoints, CCI Blazer, Rem Bulk, and Federal Classic...

    Shipping a BB gun to Canada....DENIED!

    I sold my EAA Drozd BB gun on gunbroker. When I recieved the payment, I found that the buyer was in Toronto Canada. He gave me instructions on how to mark it so he wouldn't need to pay taxes on it. When I got to the post office, they said no way no how would they send it. I'm vaguely famillar...

    My buckmark has felt a little green lately

    :D :D :D :D :D It's lean, mean, green, and 4.5oz lighter than my factory 4" micro barrel. Range report to follow.

    Tactical Solutions Buckmark Scope Mount

    I recently purchased a Buckmark scope mount From Tactical Solutions. I'm impressed so far with it's quality and finish. They did a nice job matching the countours of the gun. Its matte finish is very close to my gun's. Other mounts I've seen for the Buckmark are quite bulky. Not a...

    New Pac-Lite Buckmark Barrels!!

    Tactical Solutions is going to introduce these at the SHOT Show. Many thanks to Tom for spilling the beans early! These are even better than the Ruger uppers since they're not considered a firearm. Now do I get a 4" or a 5.5"? Check out this thread...

    Target cube reactionary target

    I ran across this product in a gun magazine recently. http://www.ballistictec.com/Catalog/ProductDetail/M-STC4.html It looks like a ton of fun to shoot, but the $75 MSRP iseems a little steep for a hunk of plastic that destined to be blown to bits. My question is if there are commerically...

    What rifle sling system is this?

    HKPro has a very cool picture of a US Capitol guard with a G36 strapped to his chest. Is this sling rig or one simillar available for ARs? http://www.hkpro.com/action10cappoliceg36.jpg

    Let the gouging begin!

    One of my local gunshops is preselling "ban free" rifles and magazines. http://www.impactguns.com/store/ban_free.html Too bad they are asking for more for many items than you'd pay today buying preban. That's the end of my dealings with them. Gougers and opportunists are just as bad as the...

    Mini-14 GB still in production?

    Is Ruger still producing the GB and AC-556? I don't see these things in any recent LE catalogs or periodicals. Has Ruger dropped them completely?

    Anyone here attend May 22 UT ViMBAR?

    Just wondering if any forumites attended the ViMBAR match this weekend at Promontory Point. I didn't see any names on the roster that I reckognized, but I thought I'd check just for fun.

    Got an AR-180B...Was I better off with a Mini-14?

    I picked up an early production Armalite AR-180B for a very good price back when they were very hard to find. I thought it was the best compromise available between the reliability of the Mini-14 and the accuracy of the AR-15. Closing in on 2 years later, you don't hear much about them on the...

    New Taurus Plinker

    I've had the itch for a kit gun flavor .22 for some time now. I held the S&W 317 in my hand countless times with the intent to take it home, but I just couldn't warm up to it. I then considered the Charter 2000 Pathfinder and various Taurus offerings. Here's what I ended up with. Nobody...

    PMI Mini-14 Mags at CDNN

    Those of you that are Mini-14 owners might be interested in page 73 of CDNN's latest catalog. Lets just say that I don't think that 30 round PMI mags sold for much less than $40 even before the ban. Looks like someone was sitting on a bunch of mags, and has bet that the ban won't be extended. I...

    Springfield WWII got the best of me

    I've been eyeing the Springfield Mil-spec for quite some time. Good 1911's have always seemed over priced to me, but the MIlspec looked like a good deal. I ran into one at Galayns the other today for $419 minus a $10 off coupon. I ended up walking out without it. Then today I run into a new...

    U22 Neos Inox 4.5

    I picked up a new U22 the other day. I've seen them around quite a bit, bit never bothered to heft one. Once I had it in my hand, I knew it should come home with me. The level of fit and finish is excellent. The matte stainless finish is even and non-reflective. The machining on the bolt and...

    Ptr-91?

    CDNN has a rifle in their new catalog called the "PTR-91". It appears to be an H&K 91 parts gun with a new US receiver. A quick google search turned up this link. http://www.jldenter.com/PTR-91%20Rifle.html Does anyone have any info on this beastie?

    New Taurus 63 17HMR Rifles?

    I haven't seen a single .22lr specimen of Taurus's Win 63 copy to date. They're now apparently going to produce them in 17HMR of all calibers! Does anyone know if they are shipping the .22lr ones yet? http://www.taurususa.com/products/gunselector-results.cfm?series=SA3
