What modifications were made to the M1 carbine to make it fire 5.7 Johnson? Since the 30 carbine rifle was the parent I assume the gasport hold was probably smaller. Anyone have the Saami specs for 5.7 Johnson? Id like to know how it compares to the FN 5.7 but I suppose I can look at .30 carbine...

Hey everyone Haven't posted in a long time but I thought id write a thread about my new AR-15 build. I had written before about how I bought a AR lower reciever for my gf a couple years ago. Well that ended and that build turned into a M16A1 upper with a collapsing stock but due to the memories...

I have been wanting to go my whole life and I recntly moved to Nashville Tennessee so I am trying to decide if I should go or not. If I do go I will probably go early friday morning so I can participate in the old bolt action rifle shoot. But I will have to pay $10 more to register. Because I...

Boats From what I read with Soumi Army they bought Chinese AK for reserve troops because they are cheaper and the same caliber as there domestic Ak's but regular troops are still armed with Valmet made rifles. Brother in Arms

this is an interesting thread! and I think it encompasses several angles two that have been touched on but not expounded upon are psychological and perceptual. The originator of the thread noted that there have been many innovations for the AR platform and wonders if such a boom could happen...

nailoth is right on using the mag for a vertical fore grip. I saw an FAL go Kaboom once and it destroyed the magazine. Split it from top to bottom and blew out the follower spring and floor plate. Never did find the floor plate but the follower was bent in half. the 2 rounds that where...

So today I mounted non-QD sling swivels and a M1 web sling to my Montana Rifle. I also painted the synthetic stock O.D. green. I went to a local gun shop and found a old set of steel Redfield Model 70 mounts that fit it and added the Leupold 3-9X40 VX-I overall its a pretty decent package...

Making a steel butt plate would be easy enough trace the original recoil pad with a sharpie marker onto a piece of flat stock, cold rolled would be fine. Cut it out with a hack saw or metal band saw. Shape with a grinder and smooth with a file. Locate your two holes for the buttstock screws...

Its funny but I have been purchasing firearms and ammunition for many years now and while at one point I had tons of fiirearms but now i find myself selling firearms to by large quantities of ammo. A firearm without ammo is useless and it really makes me miss the old days of $25 7.62NATO battle...

Erik Sounds to me like you have the same dilemma as I have. I want a good battle rifle to be my all around gun but seem to never fully conclude what that is. I originally was way into the FAL and bought a South African parts kit then I went to colorado and started shooting highpower with...
