    Learning to shoot

    Quote attributed to Churchill iirc. Not sure if he said it, but people say he said it :) I think the second age was 30 though.

    Only one transaction. Ordered the mount & scope to scout scope a Mosin. I had it in 3 days. I remember being amazed that it was sitting on my porch when I came home from work. First thought was: "Wife bought some other crap off e-bay or amazon!" When I saw it was for me I did a little jig...

    Mosin from AIM surplus

    They are great. Order ammo from em quite often. Never a hassle and they respond to your emails very quickly.

    k98 mauser vs. lee enfield

    Surplus Mauser ammo seems to be available readily from all the usual suspects for approx 30 cents per round. 7.62x54R is 24-28 cents per round. Both prices include shipping. 8mm is not really that expensive to shoot. Sure it will eventually run out and has been increasing in price, but it...

    What fills the gap between pistol carbines and full on rifle rounds?

    I was gonna post what everyone else said, because they are right. Or you can consider 5.45x39 (AK-74 uses this). Right now it is near as cheap as 9mm for surplus rounds bought in spam cans. Buy a rifle (the new saiga for like $350) and drop around $600 for 5000 rounds and you can plink...

    October 2009 Rimfire Match!

    Scoring on the 50yd target. How the heck do we score this? I can't read the numbers on the small target, but assuming they are the same as on the big target it seems a tad bizarre as the small corner targets are about the same as the 5 zone on the big target and any hit on those should be...

    Rimfire match?

    gvnwest needed some time off... the dude who was gonna take over got banned... so I think we're gonna need another Timmy. To put that in non-early nineties sitcomese, we'll need someone to step up and run it.

    Air rifle for vintage rifle training...

    I think I have the terminology wrong, it is classed as a pneumatic, I think I threw the precharged in there incorrectly. But yeah, it is not a spring driven one like most of the Gamo rifles for example. I have to admit my discipline is lacking as dry firing is so durn boring and since I can...

    Air rifle for vintage rifle training...

    Hey gang, I am looking for an affordable, reasonably accurate pneumatic air gun that will be a reasonably good trainer for open sight vintage military rifle positional shooting (in my case a Swiss K-31). So far the one that I have found that would best meet the criteria I need is the Daisy...

    My complaint against milsurp rifles

    stevekl: make sure your sizing die actually touches the shell holder at the bottom of the downstroke. That problem should go away.

    Which Bulk .22 Is The BEST

    I've decided bulk ammo is not worth the savings in my guns. I stick with CCI SV or Aguila SV for plinking ammo.

    Why i like military surplus

    Oh dear... are we doing this again? :scrutiny: Well, I like these threads but I'm sure some members will be along later to tell us we is dumb for wasting our money and should go out and get a quality gun... But for the record... why Milsurps? 1) Aesthetics: I like a gun with a lot of...
