    7.62 x39

    And that is in Canadian dollars as well? And why exactly can't Americans tap into the Canadian market? I know it has something to do with a US ban on Chinese weapon-related imports, but the ammo you linked to was Czech of origin. Do Chinese companies distribute it or something? Either way, I...

    Whats that AR-15 kit site?

    I'm about ready to buy a new AR-15 kit and I remember there was this sweet website in which you could personalize a kit barrel brand/length, buttstock brand/type, upper receiver type A1/A3 and everything else minus the lower receiver for a really low price. I used to have it on my favorites but...

    Youtube hypocrites. (MUST READ)

    Um... don't ever question my honesty. (Its graphic so don't click it if you don't want to see it). There are literally thousands of other videos of IEDs, snipers and so forth. Besides, how naive are you? Are you unaware of the internet phenomenon of people mixing, editing, and making video...

    Youtube hypocrites. (MUST READ)

    First of all, I didn't glorify the suffering of an animal. I posted the video to document the fact that this particular pig was incredibly resilient. And for everyone who is spouting their self-righteous hunting ethics, drop it. Just know that the whole ordeal only lasted 3 minutes. That is...

    Youtube hypocrites. (MUST READ)

    Ok, I recently posted a video on Youtube of feral pig hunt I had more than a year ago, then I decideded to delete it form my memory card in hopes of using youtube to maintain it for future viewing and showing to friends. The video showed me shooting a very large male with my Savage .270. I...

    What does a $30,000 shotgun bring to the table?

    I find this funny. I go clay shooting with my 30 year old Winchester 1400 autoloader and I can out-shoot just about everyone I've ever encountered, regardless of how much their ridiculously fancy shotguns cost. For me, the only real benefit that a nice over-under could provide to me is...

    are they gonna make a civlilian version of HK XM8

    I saw one shooting an HK that had synthetic stocks that matched the XM8 at the shooting range about 6 months ago. It looked identical to the XM8 in every way except the owner said it had a few differences. I never asked him where he got the upgrades and what gun it was originally but I'm sure it...

    Assault Rifles

    Um only 4 of those rifles you listed are actually assault rifles. The G3 and the FAL are battle rifles. I'd say the M16 is the best. Accuracy, fire rate, and with better long-range accuracy than the other actual assault rifles you listed. The M4 is a close second, it just has less velocity...

    Practical Accuracy

    10 inches at 25yds isn't that bad. I wouldn't call it 'proficient' though. I can usually put 8 rounds in 5-8 inches from 1911 .45 at that range and I only shoot handguns once ever couple months. Now, you are talking about while standing right? You're not discussing bench pistol shooting are you?

    .30-06 tracer ammo

    Thanks for the information. I went shooting today and man shooting tracers is fun. It was really wet out and I was firing at floating objects in a marsh about 300yds away so no risk of fire or anything. Something odd though, I noticed that when the tracers would impact an object (logs and...

    What rifle is this?

    I've seen stocks like that which are meant to absorb recoil. But it looks out of place on a military rifle for sure.

    .30-06 tracer ammo

    I recently ordered 10 boxes of .30-06 tracer ammo from Cheaperthandirt.com seen here I'm wondering if it would be unwise to shoot it from my grandpas old J.C. Higgins Model 50 rifle. It's an old gun but it has a chrome-lined barrel so I'm wondering if the tracer chemicals might cause any...

    Dreams about guns

    I have good dreams involving guns and bad dreams. Good: I buy a machine gun, find a cache of weapons, shoot terrorists and save the day, things like that. Bad: Someone in the dream accidentally shoots someone, or I accidentally shoot someone. Or being out hunting and having a psychotic...

    Benelli Nova VS. Mossberg 835

    Update: I went with my friend to the store and he bought the Mossberg instead of the Benelli. It came in Mossy Oak Camo and its pretty sweet, but I handled it and shot it today and the balance just plain sucks, as opposed to the Nova that I held in the store that was heavier but balanced WAY...

    M39 Scout Rifle

    I've never seen front sights like that on a Mosin before. Strange. Its nice though, but why configure a Mosin into a scout rifle? It just seems odd to me for some reason...

    Whats with 'Choke'

    Someone explain to me exactly how the choke on a shotgun works. I have 2 shotguns, neither of which have a choke, but I shot my friends shotgun that had an adjustable choke at the tip of the barrel and it had 4 settings. What does 'full' mean? Does it mean that the group should be bigger or smaller?

    Which of these rifles are the coolest to you?

    Reluctantly I voted for the M1A. But all 3 of those rifles are equal in 'coolness'. All 3 have so much history and nastalgia surrounding them, and are also very functional and fun to shoot, maintain, and collect and so forth. It would have been even harder if you added the Thompson and Colt...

    Optimal Barrel Length for .375 H&H?

    I don't know about that. I shot 300 grainers out of my Remington 700 chambered in .375 H&H with 24inch barrel and it was brutal. After 10 shots at the bench I felt like curling up into a fetal ball and crying. I only weigh 150 lbs too, and I had no recoil pad. So i can only imagine what...

    Benelli Nova VS. Mossberg 835

    My friend is going to be purchasing a shotgun for the first time and he has come down to two choices. The Benelli Nova or the Mossberg 835 both in 12 gauge. He wants an all-around shotgun for everything from casual skeet shooting to small and large birds, and possibly large mammals. I...

    Doesn't this make your blood boil?

    TX1911fan said: But the .50bmg WAS in fact used as the standard weapon on alot of airplanes in WWII. And the .50bmg DID take down alot of airplanes in WWII. It is highly unlikely though that even a skilled shooter could take down a modern jetliner with it in a semi-auto or bolt action rifle...
