Did that on a cheapie mauser scout rifle I made a while back, and it came out pretty decent. This was using some spruce boughs fro a tree out back, and krylon paint.

I flat out love my 9200a1, for several different reasons. 1. Autoloader with an ambi safety. This is hard to beat. 2. From 'cruiser ready', just yank the charging handle and yer in business. 3. Mine has gone through 1500 rounds so far and been completely reliable. 4. I can rip off 7 rounds...

Best mouse gun? Walther TPH in .22lr. Best pocket gun? Colt Agent in .38 spl( with Waller hammer shroud, of course). As always, YMMV.:D

Couple of mine. FALs are the best!

Just a thought, but TIG welding the mag tube to the reciever may be the solidest option, although it would make pulling the barrel tricky if you ever wanted to later on. TIG would be the only type of welding I would use for this kind of delicate work. If you don't want to go that far, how...

Looking back on it, I probably should have mentioned that the base rifle was already bubba'd when I got it, but what the heck. It does make for some interesting conversation, and the world would be pretty boring if we all thought the same! The load development testing continues, with the...

It's a cheapo NC Star 2.5x in Weaver 4x4 rings on an XS mount. Cheap, simple, and good enough for what I'm doing with it. Never had an issue with this setup, and I've used the exact same equipment on .303 Brit and .308 rifles without any complaints. I did have an NC Star variable-power scope...

For those who wanted to see the finished product...

Having had both and shot both, I'd say there are a few things to consider first. 1. Maker. A Century built FAL or Maadi built AK are not going to be up to the same level of quality as other makers, so educate yourself before laying your money down. 2. Ammo. Brought up before, but it seems...

Very informative taser article here, written for EMS but has good information. http://www.jems.com/medical-clinical/jemsmagazine/13231/ and http://www.aemj.org/cgi/content/abstract/13/6/589 I have seen people die in custody before Tasers were even invented, mostly from hyperthermia...

I picked up a sporterized(Golden State Arms- very nicely done)No.1MK3 Enfield in a gun trade a while back and am just getting around to tinkering it up. It's a good shooter and the bore is in excellent shape, so I'd like to put a scope on it. Here's the rub, though. When it was sporterized...

I understand from reading the various reloading manuals that too light of a load can cause a "detonation", but I'm not exactly sure how that works. Maybe some RKI on this board could explain? It might be your problem here. Cheer up, at least nobody was hurt!

Here's a good link for ya, mate! https://www.apexgunparts.com/index.php/cPath/28?osCsid=c5ad04fba276ef5d52e7d7e889992b2b Hope this helps.

Well, I just finished up my recent project, a Rhineland Arms conversion kit based Delisle replica, and let me tell you, what a nightmare. The barrel was good except for a sharp ridge left in the chamber area, easily remedied, but initially causing minor feeding problems. The magazine adapter...

This guy here:http://personal.stevens.edu/~gliberat/carcano/ has the best information on Carcanos I have found yet. These guys here:www.grafs.com Have the ammo. Hope this helps

How about a four ounce saboted slug?

Well, you know, it ain't for everybody! It takes all kinds to make the world go 'round, and it gets real borin' up heah in the wintah, so with cabin fever nipping at my brain and nothing but a Carcano in the parts pile....:neener: Besides, it shoots good, takes a six round clip, folds up to...

Two scout project rifles, one is Mauser in 7x57 with ATI stock, the other is a Carcano in 6.5x52 in a custom stock consisting of an ATI folder grafted onto a wood stock. Both shoot well. The Mauser was sold off to finance another project, the Carcano is awaiting a camo paint job but currently...

Howdy. I have a SU-16A that I got a few years ago. Prior to this I have had extensive experience with the AR15 family of rifles. I like them both for different reasons. The AR is definitely more solidly built. While it won't tolerate dirt like an SU, a typical AR will outshoot a typical SU...
