    What's your "never buy" gun?

    I bet that gun shoots even better now that you streched the bore out some... Jake Tyler I haven't noticed any problems or inhancements to the rifle. I think the rifle is fine, but if it needs a new barrel, then I would find a factory replacement barrel, and install it myself. It is...

    What's your "never buy" gun?

    Well, I am sorry some of you feel that way about the Remington 700. I inherited one from my father in .243, which is a pretty ok hunting round. If their rifles are made to the same qualities as my father's, then I would take one any day. The reason I say that is one day I accidently grabbed...

    When did the 1911 enter your collection?

    I have bought two 1911's the first was back in 2 or 3 years ago it was a Rock Island. The last one was a Taurus PT-1911 AR it was last year. The reason I sold the Rock Island is it was becoming unreliable due to the fact that the metal is very weak, the internal parts were wearing too quickly...

    9MM Summer Carry

    I will say that most of the firearms mentioned are reliable enough for conceal carry, but ultimately it is your choice. I was wondering if, my friend should get rid of his Jennings Nine. I will say that I think he has never shot the pistol. We however noticed that it has been stamped (by the...

    cock or rack?

    I was wondering if, my friend should get rid of his Jennings Nine. I will say that I think he has never shot the pistol. We however noticed that it has been stamped (by the facotry) with x's in the slide. My thinking was it was supposed to be a .380, but then decided the last minute to change it...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    I was wondering if, my friend should get rid of his Jennings Nine. I will say that I think he has never shot the pistol. We however noticed that it has been stamped (by the facotry) with x's in the slide. My thinking was it was supposed to be a .380, but then decided the last minute to change it...

    SKS with AK Mags, SWEET!

    As far as why the Russians switched/upgraded to AK versus SKS. 1. SKS was just like the M-1 Garand, low capacity magazine. 2. SKS was semi-automatic only. These two items were its down fall, cause the Russians wanted something that was just as reliable, but held more rounds, and was...

    Century Arms...???...Good, Bad, UGLY?

    I would like to say that I took my rifle to a competent gunsmith, looked the bolt head over, and measured it to be an unground bolt head. We did notices that I did not have any bolt gap, so had to buy, and install +sized rollers. So, I guess, I can say that I got one of the lucky Century Arms...

    best semi auto rifle ever built?

    If you can find them on e-bay, the 10/22 came in a factory 22" barrel, like the one I have on my 10/22. I aslo, think the factory barrels are lightweight enough. I am sure you can find a bull barrel that is lighter in weight than the factory in 20" if you want a little shorter barrel.

    $500+ too much for an AK?

    I will say this where I am from I paid about $360 for my Century Romanian AK, and that was a few years ago, but ran 2,000+ rounds through have yet to clean it, and it functions perfect. I have seen them for around $400 where I live so, like everyone else I say $500+ is very high for those...

    My experience so far with my Century L1A1 FAL

    I was needing some information... I have a G3 sporter from Century International Arms, and its serial number is G27266. The rifle shoots fine, no real problems, other than when I first got the rifle it had a burr on the upper part of the bolt carrier. This lead to a FTF, but took a peice of...

    Fake Magazine Alert

    I was wondering I few months’ back I bought a Taurus PT-1911 AR stainless steel, and I had a Rock Island 1911. I bought some MEC-Gar 8 Round Magazines, and noticed they don't exactly fit my Taurus. I am wondering if I should get rid of the MEC-Gar magazines, and what magazines would be...

    .308 Vs. 30-06

    I have a HK G3 clone, and the .308 is very accurate. I have never shot a 30-06, but I figure if you are going with either, or considering another caliber you have to decide on what you are planning to do with the round and rfile. First decide on what you will be doing with the rifle itself...

    AR 15 or AK 47?

    AR or AK? I agree with most of the people here posting. That is if money is no object, and you want reliablity, then a piston driven AR or AK will do the ticket. If it were me, and had to chose I would go with the piston driven AR for two reasons. One is that the piston driven mechanisms are...
