I'd like to learn how to use my 91/30 as a melee/CQB weapon. I have no idea where to even start. I have a friend who runs a Ving Tschun Kung Fu school, and I know that they have a staff fighting discipline that may be similar in some ways, but perhaps not ideal. Anyone have any pointers?

so, a while back, I got an Enfield No.4 Mk.I with my C&R. took it to the range, fired a box of Remington commercial .303. looked at the target. target looked like an aerial photo of the Spanish Armada! this from only 50yds at the Bass Pro Shops range. maybe my barrel is too big for the...

for a while now I've been thinking of getting both an EBR of some sort, and a "target/sniper/varmint" rifle of some sort. then it dawned on me. I bet an M1A would do both jobs tolerably well! good capacity, semi-auto, and, I think, accurate enough. so my questions are three fold: 1...

I'm planning on buying a receiver peep sight for my Marlin 336. I've been leaning toward to Williams FP-94/36, but I notice that it comes in two versions, one with "Target Knobs", and one without. would it be worthwhile to get the version with the Target Knobs? it's unlikely that I would be...

I've been thinking. I've had plenty of guns in the past, and I'm sure I'll have more in the future, but is there anything I really couldn't take care of with a .30-30 with a detachable scope and maybe ghost rings, a 1911, and an 870 with a short barrel and a long barrel? realistically, as fun as...

I just picked up a shoulder holster for my S&W 642. it's a Galco Defender (model d160). seems to be a hybrid of the classic lite series and the miami classic. nice molded leather holster, with leather straps on one side, and an elastic band on the other. fits well, been wearing it comfortably...

so, I just picked up an ancient Gurkha Kukri from an antique shop near my house. (I'll have to go back there again, with money. lots of great C&Rs and such, and pretty fair prices) it has the original sheath and skinning knives, and it's in fairly good shape. some patina, but it still holds a...

I recently learned that Ishapore Enfield 2A1 .308 rifles are now C&R eligible. anyone know anyone who has them available for sale? I've been searching, but to no avail...

so, I've been seeing those "paratrooper" Romak-3s that various places have been shilling in SGN, and I was thinking.. with the shorter barrell, they'd be a bit handier than the standard PSL... shorter barrel might even be stiffer and thus possibly more accurate(supposed to work on a Mini-14...

so, I've got a Romanian M44 that I've had for a while with a Darrell's scout mount on it, and I was thinking of doing some minor bubbafication to it, in a non-permanent way. I'd like to get a nice sporter-type stock for it. I know I've seen other stocks aside from the ATI synthetic stock, but I...

ok. so I've got a Romanian PSL, topped with a 3-9X42M "1P21" scope made in Belarus. I understand that you're supposed to zero it at 300 meters, and use the magnification knob on the side to estimate distance and compensate for bullet drop. I've got that. the thing is, what part of the reticle am...

So. I've been living in Detroit for most of my life, with the exception of a 7 year detour to Germany when I was a kid, and I'm seriously considering getting out. I've got three friends who have recently moved to Denver, and it looks like it might be the place to be for me. I just need some more...

ok, I know this is silly, but some over-the-top part of me wants a .50AE Desert Eagle. likely blued, but ya know, if you're going over the top anyway, maybe chrome. I was looking at one the other day, and I realized it's really not *that* much bigger than a Beretta 92... which leads me to...

I just picked up an Enfield No4 MkI from AIM last Wednesday, and finally took it to the 25 yd. range at Bass Pro Shops to try it out. rifling looks decent, it passes the "bullet test" with a round of 7.62X54R (I didn't have any .303 around, and if I'm not mistaken, the bullet diameter is almost...

ok. I'm just getting started in reloading, and I'm looking around trying to find the components I need for my rifles. I just picked up a ROMAK-3 on Wednesday, and I have an Enfield No.4 Mk.I on its way (finally using my C&R). poking around, I note that 7.62X54R uses a .310 bullet, and...

just picked this up from my coworker. it's a 1998 Romak-3 (AKA PSL) in 7.62X54R. he refinished the wood, and replaced the original buttstock with a thumbhole stock he made himself. came with the Russian 1P21 3-9X42 scope, and also a spare side-mount weaver base, which has been cut down to sit as...

any of you Michiganders interested in hitting the Pit on Sunday? I just got my AK clone back, and I really feel the need for some ballistic therapy. :p http://s94994366.onlinehome.us/lapeer%20pit%20directions.jpg

ok. so I bought a new(to me) barrel assembly for my AK. complete with the forward trunnion, bayo lug, and threaded muzzle. now, I know people have mentioned screwing it together (after removing the rivets), but I'd really like to get it properly riveted. most of the smiths I see mentioned...

so, maybe it's just the Olympic mood coming over me, but I'm considering doing some *serious* training, and trying to get on either the American or Danish olympic team for 2008. yes, this could all be a pipe dream, and I won't have a chance, but still, indulge me. now, the problem right now is...

so, I was cleaning out the basement, and in an old dresser one of my old roomates had left some ammunition. mostly spent cases, but i found 11 rounds of ammo in 9mm with blue coloured hollowpoint bullets. the cavity is quite small, and the ogive is about that of ball ammo. I'm pretty certain...
