    Barrel and Sight Interchangability on a Mossy

    First off, I'd like to say that I have basically no experience whatsoever with shotguns. That being said, I'd like to eventually get one for hunting and home defense. I'm kind of thinking I'd like the Mossy 500 or 590 8 shot variety with the 20'' barrel for home defense, but I'd also like a...

    Cheapest Calibers/Fodder?

    Just kind of curious what everyone believes to be the cheapest fodder to shoot? I don't own a lot of calibers, so I really don't know that much about the cost of various calibers, but I am curious. So anyone willing to help compile a list of maybe the 10 cheapest calibers? I'm assuming .22LR...

    .22 Handguns For $250-300?

    I've been wanting to get a .22 handgun for awhile now, and am still trying to decide exactly what to get. In an effort to make the decision a little easier, I was wondering if anyone could help set up a framework of .22s in my price range, both new and used (please specify). I'm open to both...

    First Gun Suggestions

    As some have said, I'd suggest a 9mm that you can convert to a .22 (Glock 17/19, Taurus/Beretta 92, CZ75 series, etc.). Not only is 9mm fairly cheap, but .22 is dirt cheap.

    RP88, how is your bullet guide secured?

    Pre-modified Saiga - Who's Doing It?

    I've seen several vendors selling the Saiga Sporter AK47 already in the AK47 format (pistol grip, AK mag ready, etc.). Anyone know who's doing this modifying; Saiga, Century, someone else? An example of what I'm talking about is...

    Yugo AK Jamming - Help!

    How exactly do I send it back? Can I ship the rifle directly to Century, or must I have a FFL do it?

    AR15 20'' bbl vs. 16''

    I'd like to know two things: what is the accuracy difference between these two barrel lengths, and also, what is the lethality difference (I am aware that the first is subjective, but that's OK. I am also aware that the second question might start a huge debate about Fackler and such). I...

    Yugo AK Jamming - Help!

    Finally got a chance to take out my new Yugo AK, which was a lot of fun, despite the jamming. Anyways, my guess it that the mags are the culprit, but I'll let you decide: The rifle seemed to function fine when the mags had 5 or less rounds in them (30 round Yugo mags that came with the gun)...

    Ballistic gelatin test results : 22 Magnum CCI 40gr Maxi-Mag HP

    This is pretty interesting, particularly that amount of penetration. Thanks for sharing!

    H&R or Charter Arms .22LR Revolver - Advice?

    I want a .22 handgun. I have not ruled out an auto yet, but I am heavily leaning towards a revolver, mostly because I don't have one yet and I like the look/nostalgia. Anyway, I want a cheap gun (under $250) that I can go target shooting with. It looks like the only .22LR revolvers...

    Banana Clips for Ruger 10/22

    I've had good luck with Eagle 10rounders, but I havn't gotten a chance to test the Eagle 30rounders. I've heard they were junk, but that's what I've heard about nearly every non-factory 10/22 mag.

    Name those cartridges

    The one to the left of 7.62x39 is 6.8SPC?

    Plated Bullets Out of a Glock?

    I know you can't shoot exposed lead rounds from a Glock for fear of KB, but can you shoot plated rounds? Are jacketed rounds and plated rounds even different?

    Dented Cartridges Safe to Fire?

    They are very minor dents on the sides of some 7.62x54R and 8mm (8x57JS) rounds (sorry, don't have a camera). The dents are not on the shoulder or neck, and they are barely noticeable. From the responses given, I think it'd be perfectly safe to fire them, though I'll probably just set them...

    Dented Cartridges Safe to Fire?

    Going through some surplus rifle ammo I found some dented cartridges. Are these safe to fire? If it isn't safe, out of curiosity, what would happen?

    Surplus 8mm in a Commercial Rifle?

    Foremost, does anyone know of any commercial rifles chambered in 8mm? I seem to recall Remington making a Model 700 in 8mm, but I'm not sure if they did/still do. What about about the other major manufacturers (it appears, by the caliber search on Weatherby's site, that they don't make an...

    STG-2000 Optics (What? That's an AK!)

    http://scoutscopes.com/index.html Those guys have scout scope mounts that replace the rear sight. Cool thing is, the mount itself functions as an iron sight, so if your scope breaks you're not SOL. EDIT: I have not done business with that company, I've only seen the website; you might want to...

    Primer-fired Plastic Bullets?

    I was just thinking that these might be useful for indoor shooting. The rounds are low powered (though dangerous still, I'm sure) so a suitable backstop would be easier to construct. Additionally, one wouldn't have to worry about lead dust. Do these even exist? If not, why not; they sound...

    Yugo AK Parts Compatibility?

    Anyone know what parts are/are not compatible with the Yugo AKs? I'd hate to buy one and have something break, and then be screwed. Also, does anyone know if the Yugo is 922 compliant with foreign magazines?
