Thanks a lot. It looks like I'm in ok shape. I thought maybe when the bolt was fully turned it should lock in the 3 o'clock position but I am glad to see I was wrong. Thanks again

Let me make sure I am clear with you guys. The bolt goes all the way closed but it does not "snap" "click" or "lock" into place. It will move up again with the slightest of pressure. On a side note, is it okay to dry fire my mosin?

Thanks for the response franco. This is my first mosin and I will have this problem adressed before I shoot it. I have thouroughly cleaned the chamber and the cut for the extractor but the bolt still kind of sits in the down position. It is definately not locking closed. Any advice on where...

91/30 Great thread I must say that really helped me in purchasing a 91/30 last weekend. I have a couple of questions though. First, having little experience with bolt guns it seems odd to me that the bolt does not really lock down when closed. Is this normal for a mosin? Also, mine...

There is no law regulating carry in Michigan banks. They fall under the laws concerning private businesses, ie. even with a sign it is only a crime if you refuse to leave after being confronted. I'm not totaly sure but I think it amounts to criminal trespassing or something like that. My...

Thanks for the replies guys. I've spent considerable time in the 642 club thread and it has been a great help as well. Thanks again and stay on the high road!

I'm wondering if any of you have found this to be true of your revolvers in general or more so on your 642's. After purchasing my 642 (my first and only wheel-gun so far) I was playing with it, dry-firing and generally getting used to the gun. I thought I saw something while dry-firing. It...

Okay I will share a couple of stories. Now keep in mind that this was some years ago when I and my shooting partners were just getting started. 1. We are at an informal range on state land shooting pistols, rifles and throwing clays. Someone had left some bowling pins on the range so we...

I don't mean to hijack the thread but (351 winchester) you said the only 5.56 you had was a ruger ranch rifle. Ranch rifles in 5.56 are very rare so you will want to double check the chambering in your rifle before using any of that ammo. I understand that NATO 5.56 is not safe in a .223 Rem...

At an IDPA match (my 3rd) a few months ago, I was moving from a sitting position to cover while shooting strong hand only with a food tray in my left hand. Targets at about 8-10 yards, two shots. I'm in a hurry and a nervous beginner so I didn't really see my hits. After the stage the RO says...

Man that was a good find. I am also in SE Michigan and would have loved to pull that one out from under you... but I digress. Would you mind telling us where you found this ad? Was it a local paper or a gun specific publication?

Here is my and my buddies wife after a day on the range...

that is a great story... very encouraging to hear that from the main stream media! NEXT STOP, WASHINGTON DC! okay maybe not but still a very cool story.

21 years old. No funny looks either. It's not cheap in michigan thats for sure... about $250 by the time I was done.

Another young gunnie I am 22 and a gunnie. Honestly though it is often not socially acceptable for someone my age to be so into firearms. I CCW and hunt and shoot IPSC and later this month my first IDPA match. I am also in college to be a LEO. The most common reaction to my owning guns is...

I have spent a lot of time and some money at Williams in Davison. I used to live 15 min or so from there, but I've never used their range. Pretty nice shop though. (I've always wanted to go in their LEO only building) Neat to see more people in my area on THR!!!

Another A2 Range finder.... Hello, I am also in Ann Arbor and have had trouble finding good places to shoot. Look up top gun shooting sports, its fairly close and a nice range. $11 per hour +$3 for two people in one lane if I remember right. There is also the firing line in canton though I...

So I posted a while ago some questions about my para-ord "CCW" and by the forums advice I ordered some new mag springs from brownells. Well I got my new springs (Wolff extra power, comander/officer length) and they fit in the magazines fine, all seven rounds fit in the mag (just barely though)...

I'm not sure how you get a 3lb trigger pull but I have a glock factory 3.5lb connector in my glock 19 and I like it a lot. I wonder if he has the same thing and is just calling it "3lb"? That glock is one of my two primary carry guns and I dont feel it is a liability to have my trigger...
