    The CZ Club

    A Cz Club! Cool. I was toying with the idea of starting one but here it is already:D I've had a Vz52 for some time too. Mine is probably one of the few that actually work reliably 100% of the time and sights are dead on - good enough for concealed carry as my 2nd pistol (my primary is a .45)...

    .30 carbine vs. 7.62 Tokarev

    Yup. One thing is for sure, the 7.62x25 with hollowpoints is a NASTY round to get hit with.

    Barrel Length vs FPS and Pressure

    Green Dot powder will give you higher velocity with no more pressure since it burns a lot faster. And if you shoot at an indoor range it burns very clean with a lot less muzzle flash and boom than Unique. I tried it in my 45 auto and I got it to go from 800fps to about 900fps and still kept the...

    Visitor from the Census Bureau?

    Personally I think your mom did right showing she had the ability to "take care problems" when that so-called census idiot saw her carrying. Kudos to your mom. Gov't employees are supposed to ID themselves to you. And you have the right to refuse admittance to your property to all trespassers.

    Why no semi-autos in .22 magnum?

    I had an AMT Automag II .22WMR semi-auto pistol. Looked really cool but I never liked it due to the poor reliability. Regardless of wither it is a rifle or pistol, the brass of the cartridge casing is too soft and thin to work reliably in that kind of gun due to cartridge length. Excel Arms...

    long range rimfire

    A friend of mine has a really old Henry .22 single shot with a 34" barrel. Guess we'll have to see how far we can shoot with it now that you guys brought this up.

    CCW ammunition

    Store bought brand name ammo only for CCW. I trust my reloads, but a sharp lawyer could roast you in court, accusing you of making your ammo extra lethal and that very well could cost you your freedom. I'd rather spend $25 at the store on a box of factory made personal defense ammo than give...

    is a tokarev really at risk to blow up?

    When the KGB wanted you for questioning, they did shoot if you tried to run from them. Then they probably shot you anyway. History. Read up.

    Opinion: CAR-been or car-BYNE?

    How you say it would depend on where all y'all are from. :rolleyes: Like the song "you say po-tay-to, I say po-tah-to"...

    is a tokarev really at risk to blow up?

    JohnnyC - maybe you should look up the history of the Cz52. Czechoslovakia was under Russian rule since the end of WWII. The Communists snatched up the Brno arms factory there and the other eastern bloc nations under their rule. That pistol was a military design, yes, but there was a lot of...

    New C&R Pistol: Tokarev or Makarov?

    Tokarev ammo is dirt cheap - $120 average per 1224 round spam can...

    What's a better deer round for a Ruger?

    I use a 100gr Hornady BTSP in my .243 rifle with 33gr of IMR3031 pushing it. Excellent balance of power and size for most hunting. If you need something more than that, you need to work on shot placement.

    is a tokarev really at risk to blow up?

    I own a Cz52. All I can say iis mine works reliably and carries well since it was designed to be carried concealed in the first place - thank the KGB for that. Look at how steamlined it is with nothing to snag on, save the front sight (nothing a touch of emery cloth can't fix). The only mods I...

    45 ACP plated bullets same loads as FMJ?

    I've been using Berry's plated 230gr .451 round nose double struck bullets with no problems whatsover for the past couple of years. I load them the same way as I would with jacketed bullets with 6gr of unique and you really can't tell the difference between them and factory loads...except that...
