    recommendations on shoulder holster for concealed carry

    Problem is, the G26 is heavy when loaded with 10 + 1 rounds--and that's OK in Winter or Fall when I wear jeans with a leather belt and suspenders that carries the extra weight well. In summer, it's hot as heck here in TN and when I go outside to feed the livestock and/tend to the garden, I wear...

    recommendations on shoulder holster for concealed carry

    I've never worn a shoulder holster before, but want to get one to wear around the house and out in the yard in the summer. Summer clothing is too light for my normal pocket carry, so I want to give a shoulder holster a try. What is the best budget shoulder holster, in your opinion, and the...

    How to repair a 1903 Colt hammerless mag?

    the thing is, the other working mag I bought 5 years ago from Brownells (apparently discontinued now) has the exact same thing--the follower is a piece of steel bent into three pieces, rather than two as per the original design. It works perfectly--attached is a pic showing its look. I took...

    How to repair a 1903 Colt hammerless mag?

    How to repair a 1903 Colt .32 Hammerless mag? Its not an original one, its a repop from Brownells I think, but it is stuck and I can't get more than one round into it. I took it apart once already from the top but I think the follower is bent slightly wrong, or else the spring is not set...

    Want to partially reverse conversion of a Saiga Sporter to an AK pattern rifle

    Thanks I have the original stock still. Yes I made a mistake with the modification--I should have kept the original stock and the original trigger. I wanted it to look 'cooler", LOL

    Want to partially reverse conversion of a Saiga Sporter to an AK pattern rifle

    A few years back I converted my Saiga Sporter 7.62x39 to an AK-47 pattern rifle by buying a conversion kit, pistol grip, and a TACTICAL QUAD-RAIL. I had a gunsmith assemble it all. Now I want to take off the quad rail and pistol grip only keeping the the Saiga able to accept standard AK...

    M1 Carbine - Soft Points Wont feed

    My WW2 era M1 Carbine shoots nice groups, and is pretty accurate except it shoots high and right. I want to get it so that is accepts soft point ammo and is correctly zeroed. I bought A LOT of PP soft point round nose .30 carbine ammo only to find that it wont feed into. FMJ ammo feeds well...

    Century Arms Centurion 39 Sporter Rifle

    I have been wanting to get an AK clone so I can use the less expensive 7.62x39 ammo. I like that the Century Arms Centurion 39 Sporter Rifle is American made. The price is up to $960 now. Has anyone got one, if so how do you feel about this rifle? I want one for target shooting and a...

    New Glock 26 - firing pin problem?? What happened??

    I took my brand new out-of-the-box Glock 26 to the range, with 2 mags loaded with PMC 9 mm hollow point. I racked the first round into the chamber and fired--the hammer fell but there was no discharge. I racked the round out and looked at it--no evidence of any firing pin strike. I did this 2...
