    Warned not to post about guns on Facebook.

    Type "guns" into a Photobucket field and there's tons of gun pix from everyday people...lots more "condeming" material to work with than FB I'm sure. No offense to the OP's father but this just sounds like FUD. Guns in your FB profile pix or public pix are probably not a very good idea...

    CMP M44US has arrived

    Nice. I've had my CMP M44US for about a month now, it always comes with me now to the range :) The trigger guard was deformed and I just used a heat gun and some zip ties to conform it back to the original state. I noticed your bolt is nonblued - I guess that's typical, I had some older...

    K-31 Swiss - should I go for it?

    there's a pretty good line of well made products for the K31 as well by St. Marie (sp?). I've got the muzzle brake and bipod adapter for mine and it definitely makes the rifle fun to shoot.

    Bird's head uberti

    Is it possible it's been renamed and placed into the Beretta Stampede line since Beretta owns Uberti now? I actually recently bought a Beretta Stampede Marshall (birdshead grip) after hunting around for one - the only other model I found offered out there "new" (in production) during my...

    My new M-39

    nice rifle, looks like mine ;) except mines a 1968 stamped "sneak" barrel. I think I paid $320 out the door in California (taxes and DROS fee). What ammo are you going to use? I was finding that the newer noncorrsive Greek Olympic stuff is horrible...the Bulgarian surplus corrosive...

    So I bought a Mosin...

    Wait...you actually shot it first without cleaning and checking the barrel? uh, okay, you may want to be a lil more careful next time. With any old mil surplus rifle, you may want to check this and chamber first to be sure they're very clean.... That being said, try pouring hot water down...

    Stupid cosmoline question...

    +1 Boiling water. Run that water down the barrel too before you go through with bore cleaner. I noticed in my first few tries that nothing works better cleaning the "initial" crap out of the barrel than a mug or two of boiling water. I also did my cleaning on a warm summer night so the...

    SAA equals major failure

    Wow. Speak of the devil...I had my Beretta SAA clone (Stampede Marshall) out at the range this past weekend and I was firing off the 300th or so round and the Ejector rod housing completely flew apart as well. To top it off, I foudn all the parts and put the housing back together but a screw...

    Old Military Trainer .22 Rifles

    I know my Polish WZ48, Mossberg M44US, and Romanian Cugir single shot all use a 22LR if that's what you're asking (?)

    Divorce present to myself

    Sorry to hear about that. I personally spent my "engagement ring money" on a M4gery thing with an added mil dot...the other thing I would have spent money on is another set of C&R rifles - a Hakim or FN49 on the top of the list.
