    Suspicious ammo, what to do?

    Oh how I wish that I could buy ammo online! However, even if I could get an import permit, I know of no mail service provider whom I could pay enough to handle the ammo once it reaches the border. Following most of you guys advice, I am going to return the ammo to the shop next week. I would...

    Suspicious ammo, what to do?

    I went ammo shopping yesterday, and I was fortunate enough to finally find a box of .303 british for my WW2 Enfield. I paid the equivalent of $50 for a box of 20 rounds of 174 gr. Remington FMJs, but when I god home I noticed that the ammo were in a different condition than I expected, and I...

    M1917 Enfield - What to do with it?

    Beautiful gun you have there, Tinpig! I really like the feel of this gun, and I almost feel sorry that it has to be sporterized in order to become a working weapon again. I may have to get myself a proper non-hacked up M1917 at some point. I cleaned up the rifle today, and she cleaned up...

    M1917 Enfield - What to do with it?

    Finally! The permit came through, and the rifle is in my safe. Upon closer inspection I see that the barrel is very worn, and I suppose that if Im going to rebuild it into an accurate hunting rifle, Im going to need a new barrel installed. Does any of you know of a place that sells barrels...

    M1917 Enfield - What to do with it?

    The paperwork says that the stock barrel is 64 cm long, which is just short of 25.2 inches, and the original front sight is in a decent condition, though it could use a new finish like the rest of the guns metal parts. Keeping the iron sights is definitely an option to consider, but right now Im...

    M1917 Enfield - What to do with it?

    Thank you for your answers! I am considering to rebuild the rifle into a range toy, possibly mounting it on another stock. I don't know wether or not I will keep the original barrel, but I think I will put off making that decision until after I have been to the range with it. After goggling for...

    M1917 Enfield - What to do with it?

    Last week, I visited a gun shop that exclusively sells hunting weapons, and I kind of bought an M1917 Enfield on impulse. Yes, I know that the title of the thread says 'M1917 Enfield', but the gun was labeled as a 'Remington 1917 Enfield', and I genuinely don't know what to call it. In fact, I...

    Recommendations on a first IPSC production pistol?

    Thank you for your replies. You seem to agree that the Shadow is the right gun for the job, but before I make the decision there is a specific alternative that I need your opinion on; The Sphinx 3000 Competition Production. I have never seen one on the range, and I have never heard of any...

    Recommendations on a first IPSC production pistol?

    As this is my first post on these forums, I´ll start with a short introduction. I am 27 years old, and though I live in europe, I have been around guns since my basic army training back in 02-03. I have been a reservist ever since, but a medical condition has rendered me unfit for international...
