As y'all probably know, Ruger has finally started making a 25-round stick mag for the 10/22. Reports I have read so far are mostly good. Now -- I, for one, wish they would make a drum magazine for it as well. From all that All of the reviews I have read on the aftermarket makes range from...

Tried Numrich, Bob's in Port Royal Ark and a few other places with no luck.:banghead: Any suggestions as to where I might find one will be greatly appreciated. (The gun I picked up has a decent replacement stock but I would like to have an original if possible) Doc

Evrybody be calm and patient No way these prices are gonna hold.

and probably never will. You know what I mean. A gun you would really like to have just because it would be fun/cool to own, and is realistically obtainable, but never makes it high enough on your priority list or you can't bring yourself to justify the money. Mine is the Browning repro of the...

$20m but only ONE gun? Well,... a 1928A1 Thompson, in the case, with extra drum mags (Type C and Type L)

Acer22, good phrasing: "What if people who are making money off this "panic buying" are actually doing things to perpetuate this panic mentality. In other words, they are manipulating the market" I think there is at least a little bit of that going on. HURRY! HURRY! BUY YOUR AK HERE! BEFORE...

Doubt any country as gun friendly as we are BUT some are a lot more gun friendly than others, even some where gun control is a given. In some countries, gun ownership andand some form of gun control are both accepted as cultural norms. China and Japan are probably the most anti. Finland...

Justin, I have no empirical proof, but I am basing my suspicion on my experiences at gun shows when there was a ban actualy in effect, and there were always several tables full of AKs etc, priced high, gathering dust. It is possible, however, thatmy experience is not fully representative...

Sks forever! I picked up a new Yugo a while back at a great price, glad I did. While I would like to grab an AK, I dont regret picking the SKS first, even though current gouging is making AK out of reach, at least until the panic is over. SKS is a tremendous rifle, except for the crappy...

The bottom line is: There are probably MORE AWs available then there are people who want one, or who at least want one really bad. Therefore, actual supply is at least to actual demand. When panic buying goes down, things will become a little more realistic. If Obama truly backs off AWB at...

I just feel there is no shortage of AKsor ARs, based on my experiences at gun shows during the ban, and even one I attended a month ago. There were several tables FULL of both, as well as SKS, etc. etc. The high prices are based on a possibility, not an actuality. I have been wanting an AK or...

If anyone doubts the recent spike in prices for AKs, ARs, etc. is anything but the work of gougers taking advantage of the fear of a POTENTIAL ban that may not happen, at least not for a couple of years, think back to the time when the Clin ton ban was in effect. Except for the first year or so...

One of the best web sites in the world, ww.ratkill.com, appears to be foundering. The message boards and products are gone. Other parts of it are intact. I believe the notice at the top that it is undergoing design change is an old one from a few years back. This is the best, and one of only a...

Something in .243, maybe? Fairly light recoil. If you can find something short enough that might be the ticket.

Some of best gun fun I ever had! :) In college back in the 60s, a town in a very rural county owned a huge open dump well outside the city's limits. It was loaded with rats. We shot them with a variety of guns, mostly .22s of course, but given it was rats we could -- and often did -- use...
