    Need Opinions, just finished a batch of AK's

    I built one of those on a WASR body but I used a VLTOR Modstock and added a different muzzle brake. Also added a Krebs rear peep sight which I like a lot. It may be ugly to the traditionalists, but I love it and it's a purely fun gun (especially with the 75 round drum!). Nice build.

    Have you ever been asked?

    Here's a good one. I was going into a strip club with my wife, her sister, and my brother in law. I was carrying. We got "wanded" at the door by some huge bouncer and obviously it started beeping when he got to my belt (I carry IWB on the right side). He asked "Are you carrying a knife?" I...

    What would your JIC gun be?

    +1 On the Henry Br - I wish I had one to be part of my current kit. So far I'm thinkin I'd bring my Springfield 1911 .45, my Savage .22, and my M4gery with a few hundred rounds for each (again, depending on the scenario). I also own one of those Katadyn water filters - expensive, but SO worth...

    AK stock

    I actually swapped out my WASR wood stock with an VLTOR 6 position Modstock, which has great cheek-weld and is adjustable for length of pull. Also has a storage compartment, etc. I love it - the only drawback being that it cost about half of what I paid for the original rifle!

    New Ad From The Brady Campaign

    From the comments "I’ve never assaulted anyone with a clip – they’re too light to do any damage." Funny. Does ANYONE take these idiots seriously anymore? They've been publicly known to exaggerate claims, make up statistics, and just plain LIE. Why are they still around?

    So who here makes/made their dad proud?

    Dad made ME proud Grew up in a house with no guns - parents weren't particularly anti- just didn't have em around (growing up in NYC didn't help I'm sure :). Anyway, I just got into shooting a few years back and my collection has grown. I showed all my stuff to my dad about 6 months ago and...

    Need Help: Global Machine & Tool AK-47

    Agreed about the stock. Although I believe it is possible to put a regular stock on - IIRC VLTOR makes one - it would cost about half of what the gun is worth. Great quality (for a Century) AK though in my opinion, I almost bought one last year. A couple of guys I know that own these swear by...

    Buying a gun, please help!

    Should I post this separately? - I wish I had a wife who would consider buying me a firearm for Christmas! Alas, she is not into the whole shooting thing. You also said he only gets to go shooting once or twice a month and that's (according to you) not that often. Wow, what a lucky guy! Edit...

    Have you ever bought a gun online?

    I've never bought one online, but I plan to in the future. Just need to find an FFL that's both near my house and doesn't charge a crazy amount of money! Anyone know a good one in the Pittsburgh, PA area? Thanks!

    Texas, Houston area gun dealers main supplier for Mexican Drug Cartel

    Shouldn't this (completely manufactured and WRONG article) be a secondary or tertiary issue for these Gubmint "Watchdogs"? What about BUILDING A WALL that would keep the illegals and drug trade OUT?!? Why isn't the WAPO doing stories about that? It really gets me angry when I read such yellow...

    NY State gun laws and practices?

    Yeah- Pate's got it there. I have a house in Long Island and when I got my CCW actually called the Suffolk co. sheriffs dept and spoke to a very nice detective who was in charge of the permitting process. I asked if I could bring a rifle - he said "You can bring ANY rifle you want, as long as...
