    romanian aks

    My SAR1 is great. Trigger slap is not unique to Romanian guns and can be cured w/ a $30 aftermarket trigger group or literally 5 minutes with a dremel (what I did with mine). I refinished both the metal and wood, very nice AK, great shooter. Much superior to any WASR I've ever handled...

    Gun store what to do

    I guess I would mind my own business. You don't actually know what was happening just from one comment you overheard, which you easily could have misheard too. He may have been her gun knowledgeable friend helping her pick out a SHTF rifle and innocently told her not to make them think she was...

    Ak-47 Parts Kit

    Yeah but absent the bottom sides of the magwell like in this case (unless I'm not seeing it right in the pictures) I imagine the dimples are coming into play...

    Saiga Conversion

    The whole conversion process is dirt simple if you have a dremel tool, drill and a tap tool/handle for the 8-32 or whatever size tap for the bullet guide screw hole. Mine took like 2 hours taking my time. Buy the bullet guide from dinzagarms.com and he usually includes hole plugs to plug...

    Ak-47 Parts Kit

    I missed if you discussed it elsewhere, but do the mags fit okay w/ the bottom edge of the receiver around the magwell not bent around to create the sides of the mag well? I guess the dimples would pretty much support the mag, but seems like you might get some extra mag wobble there. I...

    Top shot show on History

    Have they said what kind of distance they'll be shooting the .50 at? Hope they don't play up some 100-200 yard scoped shot as some feat like I believe they've done the last season....

    Market demand increases gun prices.

    Not only will I not pay double for anything, I won't even pay MSRP. Too heck with that, and just on principle I'm very likely to never give a red cent to shop I see price gouging on something like that...

    Top shot show on History

    I would like to see Jay eliminate George from the show, and then get beat by anyone else... If he actually listened to some of the instruction he might be even better, with the way the show is edited he sure comes off as one of the weaker shooters. And yet that is two or three elimination...

    Looking for something smaller than a Glock 19 for EDC

    I'm looking to go to the CM9 myself, I carry a PT111 pro now but it seems too thick for what it is and the grip w/ finger extension is a little too long... I feel like the grip prints a little w/ a crossbreed supertuck IWB and jeans/tshirt, but maybe I'm just self conscious. I'm thinking a...

    Kahr CM9 is out...who's in ?

    I'm considering one, I need to find one at a decent price locally or at a funshow to handle before I bite though. Looks like the perfect package for my wants though. $420ish seems very competitive IMO. Gunblast has a review if anyone hadn't seen it yet: http://www.gunblast.com/Kahr-CM9.htm

    Not a nice buy back program in Detroit

    Funny that someone actually went to one of those buy-backs to offer to buy guns at higher prices. I've often thought of doing that but didn't have the nerve. Figured the police would "frown" on that as in the video. LOL.

    Unrealistic zombie rifle expectations?

    I agree with a couple others, your SHTF rifle needs to be in common caliber, like 5.56 or 7.62 NATO, 7.62x39 or 7.62x54r for commie guns. I really think you are making a mistake ruling out 5.56, but it sounds like something in 7.62 NATO would fit the bill of your criteria. How "evil black...

    Another Saiga thread - did something silly when ordering parts

    You can get the Hillman hole plugs at your local Lowes for like $3 or something for a pack. You can also either get e-clips or hitch pins to hold the fire control group pins in place instead of a retaining plate. I went with hitch pins with mine, also purchased at Lowes for a dollar or two...

    Definitive guide to converting a Saiga to AK configuration

    The standard Saiga conversion is cake. I just did mine a couple weekends ago with nothing but handtools, a dremel, and a drill. Surprisingly easy, whole thing only took a few hours, doing it again would take even less. I was a little worried about refinishing the bottom of the receiver...

    ak 47 hunter?

    I would expect it is a Norinco Hunter, I believe it is much more like a chinese Saiga as the trigger group is relocated and it can't use pistol grip/thumbhole stock setups in the factory configuration. http://ironwooddesigns.com might be able to make some kind of custom thumbhole setup. I...

    How many AK47 out there?

    Are we talking total produced, or actually still out there and usable? I remember hearing 50 million produced nearly 20 years ago. Heard someone claim over 100 million made on the history or military channel not long ago...

    FNH SCAR Pics From SHOT Show 2010

    Well that counts me out (forever) on picking one up. I just can't see how $2500+ is anywhere near justified... My M4gery serves me just fine.

    FNH SCAR Pics From SHOT Show 2010

    Is it supposed to cost over $1500 like all of the other new cool gotta-have-it guns? It looks kinda fugly but I'd like to have one, but I have a hard time justifying over $1000 for any rifle, and especially over $1500. Surely they don't plan on the $2500+ of the Bushy ACR though. That is...

    Ruger countdown here we go again

    My money is on a 1911 clone. Seems everyone now is making a AR and 1911, Ruger might as well round that combo out... I'm all for another sub $500 1911, hopefully it is nice.
