    Starter trap shotgun

    Yep, you're absolutely right, Woodyard! Its not cylinder bore/cylinder bore, I didn't work that accurately, at all. Whoops! Thanks for catching that. =) I should have said that I'm not crazy about having a fixed choke on both barrels. I looked at the barrels fairly closely and didn't see the...

    Starter trap shotgun

    Beagle, Never tried skeet, I'd love to, but the club I've been going to only offers trap. I'd really like to try sporting clays. That looks like a helluva good time!

    Starter trap shotgun

    Hey Gang, Big 5 had a special on a Mossberg 'Maverick' break action over/under a week or so ago. It came with 2 choke tubes, IC and M. They were selling for $320. I was just wondering if any of you guys had one of those? Anybody have any experience with them? They look fairly attractive for the...

    Starter trap shotgun

    Thanks for everyones input! I was in the pawnshop today and they had a real nice browning for $1700. I'm pretty sure it was a citori. It felt pretty nice, I'm thinking of going back and making her mine! I like the fact it had the adjustable comb. My mossy 500 beat the heck out of cheek the other...

    Starter trap shotgun

    I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank longknife for his sponsorship. It took me several attempts at calling, but I finally got someone to sign me up. I called the (703) 267-1000, and asked for Life Member Services and from there it was pretty easy. Every time I called the...

    Dragunov stock for sks

    Alright cool, thanks! I'll have to check out the calguns website you suggested. I wouldn't have even thought about swapping stocks, but my brother gave me the Dragunov stock, so I figured...what the heck, let's give it a try!

    Dragunov stock for sks

    Hey folks, I live in Commie-fornia and recently acquired a CA legal SKS. I'd like to put on a Dragunov stock, but I'm not quite sure if it would still be CA legal. I don't think it would because the SKS has a 10 round fixed magazine, so the stock wouldn't matter, right? However, does the...

    $300 NRA life membership

    Folks, I've tried three times, and each time the rep on the other end of the phone says "your sponsor (whose endowment number I'm trying to use) has to call to set up your new lifetime membership". I understand quite a few people have been successful with this...any suggestions?

    Mosin Nagant - Am I the only one who does NOT like these?

    I own a couple of Mosins. They're not my favorite rifles by any means, but they're dirt cheap, pretty darn accurate, bulk surplus ammo is cheap, and they're alot of fun to shoot. I love restoring old surplus rifles, it's a great way to spend a weekend IMO. Every time Big5 has a special on the...

    Remington 550 reassembly problem

    Thanks for the responses! Looks like I didn't have the trigger installed correctly (at all) into the little notch it fits into with the sear, which is why the bolt wouldn't fit. The doggone sear was completely blocking the reciever! Oops! So now the challenge is trying to get it to fit. Man...
