I've been kicking around getting an AK pistol for a while and after looking around on line I've realized I should have done this BEFORE Covid. I'm looking for something with an 11-12" barrel that takes AK mags in 7.62x39. I want to put a folding brace on it and if it can take an optic that...

Like the title says, what are my best sling options for a Henry lever action 001 .22 with under barrel mag tube? I've looked at the swivels that clamp to the mag tube. Are they secure? Since the mag tube is clamped to the barrel will it effect the point of aim? Are there other better options?

I'm about to redo my office at home. I haven't decided on anything final but the idea hit me to display a rifle on the wall. I have a variety to chose from but thought about putting one of my lever actions with some nice wood up someplace. We have no children in the house so it's just my...

I have a first generation PS90. Is there a way to remove the current optic and replace it with a rail like the newer models use? I called FN and the random customer service person said they didn't think so, but "I don't think" isn't the same as "I know for a fact". Any ideas?

I've got an AR lower I was going to build up before all the craziness hit the fan. For now I've got it on hold but I expect eventually all this will die down and I'll be able to buy parts for it again without taking out a second mortgage. So I'm looking for some opinions on barrel twist rate...

I bought a couple of new guns recently and the experience got me to wondering something. I purchased a couple of handguns from an online dealer and had them shipped to my local guy. He doesn't mind doing transfers since he considers it a good deal for him. He's a smaller shop, basically a one...

Wanted to get some feedback from people who have hands on experience with these three sight systems. I have an Arsenal AK without a side rail I want to put a red dot on. I also want to be able to use iron sights as a back up. So far the best three solutions I can find are; Texas Weapon...

At what point do restrictions on magazine capacity cross over from regulation to infringement? At what point can we get these laws struck down by the SCOTUS? I've been wondering about this lately since seeing what's happening in NY and other Northeastern states. One common way of...

Let me preface this with the fact that I am not in the gun business. This is just an observation I've made recently. Over the last several weeks I've been reading about all the panic buying. Yes, my local store shelves are empty also. In response to this crazy buying frenzy some stores are...

I've looked and can't find a reliable answer to this. I know that Saiga magazines have an integrated bullet guide in them. I know that to covert a Saiga in 7.62 you have to install a bullet guide and file down the magazine catch a little for it to accept standard AK47 magazines. So my...

A little background. 25 years ago I'm a typical bone headed E4 in the Army and my grandfather sends me a really nice pocket knife. It was pretty unusual and I stupidly carried it around with me instead of putting it up. Lost it in the air terminal while waiting for a C130 to ship my unit to...

Quick opinion question. Are the higher end 1911s (Kimber, Dan Wesson, etc) worth the money they cost? Are they that much better than guns in the $500-600 range? I ask because I've kind of been itching for a "pretty" 1911. The only 1911 I have right now is a Springfield GI model. Great gun...

http://www.savagearms.com/firearms/model/Model42 They have revived the old concept of .22lr over a 410 shotgun barrel. Hard to find but a few places have them running about $400, which is actually cheaper than used model 24s (the old wood stocked version of this) are going for right now...

I have an possible opportunity to augment a local police departments special tactics unit in a close support role. Of course I won't be on the entry team but I will be close enough to sometimes be in a hot zone. Since I'm not a regular department member I'll be providing my own weapon. So...

I've kind of wanted a Saiga for a while now and I finally broke down and bought one this morning. It's in 7.62x39 and I got it new. I've handled them before so I knew it would shoulder well (on me at least). I don't really plan on converting it right now. Only thing I can think of doing to...

We just had an attempted break in. I typically work nights but happened to be off tonight. My wife and I were sitting in bed watching TV and goofing off on our laptops when someone tried to open our front door. And I don't mean they just turned the doorknob. The door shook forcefully for a...

I'm sure this topic has been beaten to death but I'm still torn. I'm looking for a general purpose Swiss army knife rifle for my truck. I've currently got a lever action in there but want to trade it out for a magazine fed one instead. I originally thought about an AK but got to looking at the...

Wondering about some sight options for my AK. I've looked at the skinner sight system and it looks nice. I've also looked at a few of the rail systems that mount over the rear cover. The rail systems open up more options including scopes but I don't ever expect to shoot farther than about...

I don't generally post things like this because of the risk that it will degenerate into a flame war. However, I thought this might merit discussing because of a side issue it raises. http://news.yahoo.com/video/deputies-shoot-kill-man-knocking-163819466.html The report is sketchy but so...

Does anyone here have experience hunting with a slingshot? I've used them in the past to just goof around with but I've never tried taking game with one of them. Given the small size and light weight they seem like they would be a nice thing to throw into a pack just to have on you.
