I'm soon going to be running a tabletop roleplaying campaign where the PCs will be federal agents from various departments brought together as a "spot solution". They'll be attached to various local branches of various federal law enforcement agencies. The question I have have to do with the...

A random thought occurred to me the other day. Is there any way to modify a Mini-14 to take AR mags?

My grandfather received this "Japanese sniper rifle" as a souvenir from the U.S. Navy. I don't think it's either of the Arisaka models used by the Japanese--no magazine. Wide view: Action design: Bolt design: Stock: There's an identical marking on the receiver just behind the sights...

Does anyone actually have a link to a survey or data or something that says that? I've tried Googling but I've not gotten anywhere. I tried looking on www.keepandbeararms.com, but they don't have much about this subject. Also, helpful would be something about how just displaying a gun will...

Usually, I read threads like this. But I was surfing THR and my dad walked in from the truck and handed me a Remington Model 31. He bought it for $100. 12 gauge. There's a "28" underneath the model number. The follower (I think that's what it's called--the thing that moves the shell from the...

How are they? Do you like the 15 round capacity (vs. 8-12 .380s or 9x18mms)?

Just curious here, but... The woman is wearing western gear, but the revolver just looks a bit too advanced. It just looks...out of place. Weird. I'd expect, a Schofield or a SAA or...something else. Can anyone help me out here?

Anyone use a Polychoke or a Polychoke II, specifically with the muzzle brake? Anyone find them useful? I'm thinking of getting one put on a general purpose pump action shotgun.

Also, what action is it based off of? Isn't it Mauser clone or something? Bonus points for pics.

et's see if this myth can be proved or disproved: Have you seen anyone ever actually breaking or spraining their wrists firing a sawed-off shotgun or large handgun? IMO, the worst you would do is smack yourself in the face. None of this friend of a friend or on a post somewhere, first person...

Two questions... 1) The Pardner Pump is a copy of the 870. I'm lefthanded. Is the 870 compatible ejection wise with left-handed shooters? 2) When I get around to going shooting for the first time, I'll need eye protection. I wear prescription glasses. Are most/any shooting glasses made...

I've got a Mosin-Nagant M44 and am not actually educated (yet!) on the practical aspects of inspecting and shooting firearms. How can I tell if the bore is in good shape or not? Pictures of a good bore vs. bad bore would be helpful here.

Thinking of getting something like this: http://www.google.com/products?q=SKS+chest+rig&btnG=Search+Products I'd want whatever I get to hold Mosin-Nagant stripper clips, or other types of stripper clips or mags for when I expand my collection in the future. If I could find a butt cuff...

How is the 5.45 different from the 5.56? See, I had this thought that the Russians, having made the transition to a small-caliber high-velocity round ten years after the West, would have looked at the performance of the 5.56 and improved it. Is this true? I read on another, older thread on...

Hopefully with a folding stock? Does this animal exist at all I wonder? Idly wondering here.

10 rounds of the cheapest centerfire ammo money can buy...

Let's say you have a hide from say, a deer or something that size. Scrape the fur off of it and stretch it and dry it. How heavy is it?

If you have a 1920's era pump shotgun and a 20's era flashlight, and you tape the flashlight to the shotgun, the flashlight lens bulb wouldn't break if you shot the gun, would it?

That is, a shotgun set up with rifle sights, to fire slugs only? Yes, it's a silly thing to do.

I heard of one guy who kept an AR with a collapsing stock in one. You could easily fit a folding stock short-barrel rifle in one. It certainly doesn't look like a gun case. The standard size (from me looking at tennis racquets on Amazon.com) is 27 inches or so. Plenty of room for a folding...
