Alaska Airlines allowed me to check 2 dozen handguns packed in Pelican type cases. I had long arms packed in a smallish safe and shipped via moving company. Ammo was driven through Canada but they do have some limits on type of ammo and the amount. Good luck. BTW I spent 19 years in the...
thanks
Thanks for the input. I guess I do worry a little bit about opening a battle pack only to find unuseable ammo. My luck has been pretty good with the stuff that I have though. I remember some Guat 5.56 battle packs a while back that were hit or miss. Some of it tarnished and with a...
Would you use your battle packs of DAG and SA 7.62 x 51 before you start using newer factory ammo? Save the battle packs because they are sealed? I keep everything other than battle packs in ammo cans with desiccant so I expect that I can store it for quite some time. I’m just curious about...
Gibbs
The Gibbs versions are usually built from a No.4 and usually shoot well in my experience. There were reports that the flash hider might follow a round downrange on occasion. I've collected Enfields of all kinds for many years and love the No.5. The wandering zero thing is the first...
Greetings to all of you. Interesting place with interesting topics. I need a little help though. I've scoured the internet looking for a place to buy a replacement firing pin for a "Kuandian" model 1897. I purchased it a couple of years ago but have no idea how long it was on the shelf. the...
My wife recently asked me to show her my collection of milsurp firearms. She admired most of them for their character but almost dropped a Lee Enfield no.4 Mk.1. She actually teared up and said "it has blood on it..." I thought she meant literally and asked her where... she said "no...
Safety checks?
MM... I'm not sure what you mean by that... with the hammer cocked and the safety engaged, the trigger is free but the safety doesn't allow the hammer to drop. When the hammer is at the half-cocked position the trigger is immobile.
Thanks for the tips on magazines too. I've...
I purchased one of the Star model B pistols from Aim and it arrived today. I broke it down and cleaned it and have to say that it a nice pistol. I'm questioning the operation of the safety though. The thumb safety engages with the hammer cocked as well as with the hammer down. It seems much...
CAD Technik
Brownells (pn 100-000-319) sells a very nice no drill scope mount for the Enfields. Very solid and easily removed. Now made by Dai Management.

I lived in Washington before moving to Alaska but I work in Washington regularly. The last car I rented had California plates...man I couldn't wait to get rid of that thing! I got more Michael Vick waves than you can imagine. I was going to tape a sign up that said "NOT FROM CALIFORNIA!" It...
When I tested, recruiters for each branch shared office space. I was looking to get out there and do something but hadn't made up my mind except that I didn't want join the AF. I had spent my life as an AF brat and knew I wanted something different. After looking at my scores the Navy offered...
attitude
Sorry, I let a certain poster distract me. IMO the military isn't anti gun. Some military commanders probably are. Recently here in Alaska, a Commander ordered that his troops would not be allowed to carry concealed weapons off post as is permitted by our state law. Of course...
I'm trying to find a replacement magazine spring for my little Savage. Wolff doesn't offer a direct replacement for the 1907. Can anyone offer ideas on a replacement spring that might work? The magazine holds 10 rounds of .32. Thanks!
