Thanks for the great suggestions guys. I hit it with a blow dryer a little today and used an old sock to wipe it. That got some stuff off the stock. I think I'll just leave it as it is for now. I don't want to take any chances on damaging a historical stock.

I recently got a CMP M1 service grade. The USGI stock is really dirty. I'm not sure if I should clean it because I don't want to damage the collector value. Any suggestions on how to clean it without damaging collector value?

Colt 6920. You just can't go wrong with that one.

Nice rifle. I'm thinking about getting a Spikes one of these days.

I have to agree with Grunt on this. Most Mosins are cheap now, but they will be collectible and valuable in the future if they are not modified. Especially since so many people are butchering them.

For just a little more money you could get an Arsenal SGL 21. They are the best. Check AR15.com for a promo code to buy at Aimsurplus.com.

The owners manual to my video camera says to seal the camera in a plastic bag in the cold air. Bring it inside and let it warm up inside the plastic bag for about an hour. Then take it out of the bag in the house. I'm sure that would work for guns too. Too bad there are no zip lock bags that are...

Thanks for the info. I think I'll start running a dry patch through the bore before shooting just to be safe.

7.62 x 39 works great in a WASR and Arsenal SGL. I'm afraid to try Tulammo in my other guns.

NAA mini revolver. It's too difficult to get a good sight picture.

I read somewhere that you are supposed to get the excess oil out of a bore before shooting. Is that really necessary? I have never done this. I just start shooting with oil in the bore and I never had problems.

I think the ammo will dry up again around August 2012. I am prepared for it now. I was not prepared in 2008.

Some of you are really paranoid. The NRA totally supports this legislation. If there was anything at all threatening our gun rights, the lawyers for the NRA would find it and the NRA would not support it. This legislation will be great if it becomes law. The NRA says that the anti-gun amendments...

It sounds like you don't have enough guns. It also sounds like you need to move.

I have the Colt M4 Ops .22 and the S&W M&P 15-22. I would recommend the S&W out of those. I would like to get a GSG one of these days.

From what I understand, sporterizing destroys the value of the rifle. I inherited a Remington 1903/A3 that was sporterized. It is worth only half as much as it would be in it's military configuration. I'm sure it was fun for whoever did it, but it still destroyed the value of it. The cheap Mosin...

I would not buy an M1 Garand from anywhere but the CMP. So I think the paperwork would add value to it after the CMP stops selling them.

Everyone should have at least one of each.

I don't get it either. If you want a hunting rifle, why not just buy a hunting rifle? You could just sell the military rifle to fund a new hunting rifle if you don't appreciate the history of the gun.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm hoping that 36 inches will be long enough for my Mosin 91/30. The 36 inch one is about $7 cheaper than the longer ones on Amazon.
