    Just tested my new 7.5 Swiss Match Rifle

    My only concern would be the enhanced throat erosion associated with launching steel jacketed bullets, which is what GP11 is loaded with.

    MAS-36 price check and general opinion

    The MAS 36 is a tough, simple and reasonably accurate rifle. Their drawbacks include no safety, a very heavy single stage trigger, a thick front sight and no provision for adjusting windage. If I'm not mistaken the way these rifles had their zero's adjusted for windage by the armorer was by use...

    MAS 49/56 Firing Pin A Weak Point???

    I bought a 49/56 a few years ago. It did come with a little leather pouch containing two firing pins. That being said I have no reason to believe they are any more prone to breakage that any other firing pins. They seem like their metallurgy should be up to the task of firing thousands of...

    K31 or Lee Enfield Mk 1

    Go with the K-31. Accuracy is good, surplus ammo is currently available and it will be easier to reload for in the long run. Additionally you'll be hard pressed to find one that won't be a good shooter.

    Awaiting Replacement: Esee Lite Machete Complete Failure

    I wouldn't buy an ESEE that didn't have a Rowen heat treated 1095 blade. I've batoned my Junglas through branches before with no ill effects. Condor uses 1075 carbon steel which as far as I can tell is okay (I've got a bunch of their knives). This one however isn't right. I would absolutely take...

    M1 Garand hunting ammo

    That's not hunting ammo! A 168 grain A-Max is meant for match shooting and is not designed to expand.

    FAL Pros and Cons

    Two problems I have with the FAL are 1.) The forward sling swivel is mounted directly on the barrel which means that your point of impact will be affected when using the sling as a shooting aid and 2.) you need a screw driver to adjust windage on the rear sight. I would really like to trade...

    Appleseed Shooters, let's see those AQTs

    Here's the one I used to earn my patch. I used a Tech Sight equipped Ruger model 10/22 with a 1907 type sling.

    Stupid question: are the .308 Garands legal in CMP Garand matches?

    I do shoot my .308 Garand in our local reduced course CMP matches. The match director knows what I am using and is okay with it. Were it a LEG match it would be an issue. But since no distinguished points are at stake everyone's easy going about it. Besides I'm never one of the top scorers...

    Budget friendly bushcraft knife (elbow grease required)

    Interesting thread. Currently I'm trying to improve the edge on my Condor 5" Basic Bushcraft knife. For me it's become more of lesson in freehand sharpening than anything else.
