    New to me 1903 from RIA

    I've been looking for the stock and hand guard set with as much metal parts as I can get. You have any suggestions besides gunbroker?

    New to me 1903 from RIA

    My FIL just gave me a RIA 1903 out of the blue yesterday that has been in the family for 4 generations (I'm the 4th). Its a 411k serial number range RIA and was re barreled in '44 by Springfield. The bore is very nice and the bolt is stamped "NS" so I'll be using this bad boy as a alternate to...

    I have NO PROBLEM pocket-carrying my Glock 26

    When I was on the Ike there was a guy up in the Fredericksburg VA area that bled out in front of his kids pocket carrying a glock with no holster (had a ND). IMHO if you carry a glock with out a holster you need to pistol whip yourself in the <edit>, then go out and get a holster.

    Flintlock confusion.....

    Ah, that's the TVM that I was hearing about. Went to one TVM website and the wife almost smacked me when I told her the prices. As far as the kits go can an average Joe put one together with minimal problems?

    Flintlock confusion.....

    I'm a beginner looking for a reliable flintlock for hunting (a simple unembelished rifle) that has more of a Kentucky feel to it. I've been reading the interwebz reviews and it seems that half of the users say that the Pedersoli/Lyman/Traditions are junk or need a medium amount of work to get...

    9x18 ammo

    If you use your google fu you'll find that BB mak +p ammo is still within the pressure specs. I've shot it sparingly out of my Cz82 and P64 with no issues. The +p designation is a marketing ploy.

    Hunting with the 357 mag...

    Thanks for the advice yall, I'm going to try the 180gr buffalo bore cast round and then use what ever is more accurate for me between 19a and 19c. On a side note, today while I was trekking up on my father in law's property in some Utah mountains a few deer decided to give me some stalking...

    Hunting with the 357 mag...

    I've got this idea in my head that I need to take a Utah mulie (antlerless this year) with my 6" Dan Wesson 357 at a range of under 50 yards. I've read about 30 million threads on how crappy the 357 is and its marginal at best as a deer gun. However, I haven't really seen anyone analyze the...

    Yugo m 57 from the gun Show

    I like my M57, but I like my Cz 52 a bit more! On a side note I've been trying to sell my M57 here locally and haven't been getting so much as an offer. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pony up for yours?

    Well I got myself a project now...

    I just ordered a new M48 barrel from widener's and depending on the accuracy of the ad (allegedly unused, uninstalled, new from Zastava factory). If its as advertized I want to find a donor receiver (or beat up rifle) and slap this new barrel on it d/t the receiver and fit it to a boyd's stock...

    Have you noticed, VZ 58s didnt sell well --

    I'd trade my Bushmaster M4A3 for a good Vz58. I've only ever seen one in a pawn shop for $450. Shoulda picked it up instead of the RIA GI 45 I bough and sold a month later...

    What Would You Choose As the M9's Replacement?

    IMHO glock will never be a suitable replacement. Why you ask? No external safety. Ya have to remember this isn't the 40's any more, most kids going into basic have never touched a firearm in their life. I know for a fact in the Navy I have seen people on the range qualifying (or rather trying...

    First hunting rifle

    Cz has a 6.5 offering in their 550 line and is relatively easy to find and is less than the winchester.
