    The Greatest Battle Rifle Ever Devised

    I would very much like to know where you got that information (multiple sources) and why you agree with it. Personally I do not.

    Give your GunShow report.

    Not this weekend, last weekend. It was packed! I was working as I usually do serving food to the guests and vendors, at great prices! We made over a $1000 of profit. The vendors sold tons of stuff; at the beginning of the show, there were tons of firearms, ammo and magazines, by the end...

    The Greatest Battle Rifle Ever Devised

    "You are kidding right? This isn't a battle rifle." No, it isn't, is it. The list was copied and pasted from a list I had put together of the most common rifles in history, from a few months back.

    The Greatest Battle Rifle Ever Devised

    Hello, I am conducting a survey to determine the popular opinion of the Greatest Battle Rifles in history. I am doing this because from what I have found, previous similar surveys have been innacurate. "Battle Rifle", in this survey, is defined as any rifle, of any model, version, edition...

    Ishapore 2A ((DEATH TO 56K))

    That arguement is brought up quite often; though I know that the Enfield/Ishapore magazines were not desinged to be used as magazines are in modern firearms, after inspecting the rifle and magazine of my rifle I see little possibly for any damage to the magazine if used repeatedly as a...

    Ishapore 2A ((DEATH TO 56K))

    What I need now is a scope mount, but from what I can tell I won't be able to use strippers clips with a scope! Oh my! Thank goodness for detachable Ishy mags.

    The engineering and design behind burst fire

    Well thank you very much for the information; certainly answered my questions. Makes me want to go through all the BATFE/NFA stuff to get one.

    The engineering and design behind burst fire

    I know how semi-automatic firearms work, and have a general knowledge of fully-automatic firearms, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how burst fire works. I have looked all over the interweb and thought it through on my own, but still cannot come up with any ideas. My top two ideas of...

    Ishapore 2A ((DEATH TO 56K))

    What do you think of my new purchase? $200. Now before you go and ask if I emptied the rifle and went through all the procsedures before taking pictures of the muzzle and such, I did. Do not worry, everything was done safely and carefully. Any questions...

    Great Moments in Gun Cleaning

    Quite a while back, my first time taking apart a 1911 I had some trouble. It took me about 90 minutes to remove the slide, it finally came off when I realized that I had not removed the slide lock...

    Ishapore 2A extractor spring

    Another question; is removing cosmoline from the entire rifle necessary before shooting (safety of self and rifle wise). I have cleaned the barrel and chamber, and the bolt has no cosmoline; will I be safe putting a few rounds down range?

    Ishapore 2A extractor spring

    Well, for the price I could just buy an extractor spring and see if it fits, I'll also probably get a .308 extractor. I busted the rear upper handguard when taking apart the rifle.... (My fault) I payed $200, it is in good condition, covered in cosmoline. I still need to clean the...

    Ishapore 2A extractor spring

    All of you who own or have owned an Ishapore rifle know that they thend to break extractor springs often. Well, I just bought one and, the spring is broken. I have looked all over the internet, and found various sources of .303 extractor springs, but none for the .308. Are they...
