    175 grain SMK with 1:12 rifling

    http://riflemansjournal.blogspot.de/2010/06/ballistics-heavy-bullets-in-113-twist.html I read here and an earlier post I put up that my 175s would more than likely stabilize out of a barrel with 1:12 rifling in my 308. I'm probably worrying for nothing but will the slower twist have adverse...

    Cleaning a Mosin Nagant barrel

    What is a good way to clean all the cosmoline and other assorted crap out of the barrel of a Mosin? I was thinking of getting some of that foaming Gunslick stuff or whatever it's called. I know I can only wring so much accuracy out of a 91/30 but I was planning on shooting it out as far as I can...

    AK muzzle brake install

    I want to put a muzzle brake on my AK, but it doesn't have the retaining plunger on the front sight post. Could I use some kind of heat resistant Locktite type material or am I just kind of screwed? It's a SAR-1 if that helps any.

    California gun laws

    Can someone please explain California gun laws to me in plain English? I'm considering moving out there for a change in scenery more than anything, but coming from KY where the law is pretty lax to California could present some issues for me. Specifically the guns I was going to take with me are...

    Assembling an upper receiver for an AR

    Gonna take a whack at assembling my first AR from scratch, I've got the lower figured out, it's a big boys Lego set. However despite using an M4 daily and having intimate knowledge of how they work, I'm pretty intimidated about assembling my upper. Help :eek:

    Precision AR build

    I'm going to build a sort of "MK12" type of rifle for my step dad and am in the process of sourcing the parts for it, I'm stuck on the upper receiver. I found two that I really like, a BCM Mod 3(I believe is the name, it has the quad rail with a monolithic top rail) and a Syrac Ordnance that for...

    Shooting while sitting at a table.

    How would some of you pistoleros go about drawing your and firing your handgun while seated at a table? I was taught one technique where you push your chair back while pushing the table into the guy, then coming up and firing, driving your arm across the table to the point that it's almost a...

    Polish Radom AK magazines

    http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=MAK47PS&name=Black+Polish+Radom+AK47+30rd+7.62x39+Synthetic+Rifle+Magazine&groupid=15 At $8 a mag these seem like a steal, but I don't know if they have metal reinforcements. I hear that the reinforced Radom mags are pretty good and that the non...

    Drawing while grappling?

    Does anybody know of any ways to practice this? Like a scenario where you're know seriously fighting for your life and need to get your gun out to save life and limb. I was thinking get airsoft guns that replicate my carry gun and actually grapple with someone, but somehow that seems like a less...

    What height scope rings do I need?

    I have a Remington 700 SPS Varmint that I plan on mounting a Vortex Razor HD on. What height would let the scope sit nice and low to the gun but still clear the objective lens? I was looking at TPS rings specifically.

    SWFA scopes?

    Anybody have any experience with these? They seem legit but I can't recall ever hearing the name before tonight. The price seems too good to be true.

    Any opinions on SWFA scopes?

    Specifically this one http://swfa.com/SWFA-SS-3-15x42-Tactical-Rifle-Scope-P62238.aspx I need a good scope to throw onto my 700 SPS that I'm building up into a long range gun. Right now it's a toss up between a Vortex PST MRAD, and a Bushnell Elite with the G2 reticle. Then I found this...

    Tips for getting into long range competition

    Anybody care to share any knowledge on long range competitions? Any tips, tricks, pointers and advice is welcome. I'm not new to long range shooting, I am sniper qualified in the Army, but I've never done any competitive long range shooting in the civilian world. I want to be able to keep my...

    Rifling in my 308

    Will a 26" barrel with 1:12 rifling stabilize 175 grain SMKs? It's a Remington 700 SPS Varmint that I bought when I was on leave and only had time to shoot it enough to get a very rough zero before I had to leave. I have 3 boxes of Federal Gold Match 175 grain SMKs at home and found a good deal...

    Remington 700 help

    I'm looking to buy a replacement stock for my SPS Varmint, but all the stocks I've looked at say either ADL or BDL. First off, I have no idea what that means anyways other than the BDL has a hinged floorplate. My rifle has that, but I've been told that the SPS is an ADL. Do I need a stock for an...

    Slug select with an oddball shotgun

    How would you go about slug select drills with an Ithaca shotgun? Maybe I'm not thinking outside the box, but I can't figure out how since it ejects and loads from the bottom

    M1 Garand clip won't eject

    The clips in my M1 don't eject after the last round, the bolt just locks open and I have to press the clip release on the side to remove it. When I press the release, the clip does shoot clear of the rifle.

    The "coup de grace" in a CCW/civilian world shoot

    Kind of a morbid thing to bring up, but I have received many different opinions on this matter, and want it settled as I carry religiously if I get to take leave. As any of you that were/are infantrymen know, the "final step of a shootout" so to speak, is to advance past the now dead enemy(s)...

    Sewing Cordura

    Does anybody have any experience with making their own gear from Cordura? I was thinking of sewing my own pouches and maybe a few little things here and there for other guys in the company/platoon, but I've never tried to actually sew Cordura. What would be the best, most cost effective way to...
