I always was a die hard Glock fan. I always had gen2 or gen3 Glocks and considered them the best handgun design in the world. Few weeks ago I bought gen4 Glock and let me tell you people at Glock got lazy or the Glock handguns entered phase when quality and reliability declines. In 1996...

Ok I would never ever believe in this if someone would told me but I have seen this with my own eyes and I still wonder what can cause such a huge difference in accuracy between two more or less similar weapons using same ammo. We had two Ar15's, one was built by owner with 16.5 barrel made...

I have a Savage Hog Hunter 308. It has threaded barrels so I just bought a barrel brake form internet and put it on the barrel. problem is that there is a small space left between barrel end and the brake. Should I leave it as it is or should I visit a gunsmith and have brake modified...

I recently opened a topic here related to 1911 that locked up during assembly. With the help of forum member the situation was resolved. Now we (I and an new owner of that pistol) have another major issue. I will describe situation in details. First of all grip safety stopped working, on or...

Greetings dear forum members, I am registered here for a while but usually I only read rather than wright something. But now its an exception and I have reason for this. I bought AR15 type carbine and have some questions related to it. Let me start from the begining: First of all let me...

....neveretheless, I can not restrain my self and will post it here. Some one managed to take 32 gauge brass and stick into it bullet from 12.7mm soviet machine gun round. according to the "inventor" recoil (from a hand made rifle) is managable and it sends a standart FMJ bullet with...

Hi, After some bad experience with Persian mauser (see the whole story herehttp://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=4154532&posted=1#post4154532) I decided to sell it away and returned to the much appreciated by me SVT-40 rifle. Three years ago I sold one and all these three years I...
