ok, how about this? i have read that with some fitting it may still work in a hakim. can anyone confirm before i start grinding at it?

rifle is also known as the ljungman i think, and is what the hakim (what i thought the magazine was for) is based on. anyway i bought a 30 round aftermarket magazine for the ljungman by mistake, and i am wondering what it might be worth to see if i can recoup my losses. i spent about $45 on it...

yeah, i did not think it would need worn in since it was made in '56 judging by the design features (threaded barrel, full lug, etc.). might even be sino soviet by the feature set. cant be sure since it doesnt have a full serial and factory number. just a 5 digit partial serial (437xx) and the...

hey, thanks for the quick reply. good to know on the reassembly catch is normal. i find that the other times the bolt closes the carrier only catches when closing a hair slow. never catches when firing. i am probably just picking at nits. thanks.

sorry if this has been asked, search function turned up nada... anyway my parts matching chinese sks has a quirk and i dont know if it is normal or if it may cause issues down the road. currently it fires every time and is quite accurate considering my eyesight. the quirk: when i...

i use irons whenever possible. reason: good glass is expensive, and most guns i fire just DESTROY cheap scopes. with a mosin t53 i can nail the top part of a bowling pin at ~250 yards most of the time (when my glasses are one straight) with a smith-sights peep and (very loose/shakey) benchrest...

i think the current administration will probably make the charges disappear.

$6 is about how much all 3 knives i was throwing cost together according to my friend. i would be neat to find mauser bayos for that price though wouldn't it? as for technique... i think at this point i am still pretty flexible since i am still an ultra noob so to speak. haven't had a chance to...

oh, no problem man. i just found i have a bit of a talent for it and wanted to see what i could do. no worries. :)

ok, so balance is bunk. got it. anything else i should look for as per the other qualities i mentioned? EDIT: just saw a post about length and weight. i also figured my distance out already for the most part to be 20 ft. at least with the 9 inch ~6 oz. cheapos i was using. was sticking 'em right...

such as what weight, balance, type, length, etc. i should get. dont really care about brand reason i ask: i picked up a couple of cheapies the other day that a friend of mine had and started throwing them. i noticed that once i found a way that felt natural, which was with a point hold at 20...

unfortunately this seems to be becoming more and more common as time goes by.

i live in indiana and while it is legal to carry any bladed weapon openly (last time i checked, may have changed) in the city i live in you can still get arrested for doing so even if it is sheathed. no disrespect to the good cops out there but, the city cops here for the most part are a bunch...

no problem man. happy to help

to answer the question asked: i believe that a small should fit fairly snug
