    Mosin Nagant

    My local gun store has a whole crate full of these things, covered in cosmoline. I'd love to pick one up but knowing nothing about them , what do I look for to best ensure that I get a relatively good one out of the dozens of rifles I can pick through? Can anyone give me a few tips on what to...

    Gun Show/No FFL Purchases

    To the couple of folks who offered advice and a serious answer to my question, thanks. To those who felt they had to get on a soapbox, make accusations, lecture and chastise me, good job. You exposed me for the BATF agent - criminal wanna-be - troll, that I am. You're just too smart for me...

    Gun Show/No FFL Purchases

    Sorry that everyone thinks owning a firearm without it being federally registered is such a foreign concept. Just illustrates how brainwashed we all are. I'm not trying to break any laws. Just asking if it can be done legally somehow. Thanks for not jumping to conclusions and judging my...

    Gun Show/No FFL Purchases

    I live in CT and I'm wondering how far I'd have to travel to buy a firearm without any record (registration). No FFL, no background check. I don't want a used firearm from a private party. I'm looking for new. I'm thinking it would have to be a gun show purchase. PA? WV? Virginia? Anyone know?

    The "Grease Freezes A 1911 Theory"

    A much more useful and interesting experiment would be to find out if mixing lube such as CLP and grease in the same firearm would have the rumored effect of gumming up the works. For instance, is there any detrimental effect to lightly coating all parts with CLP and then adding grease locally...

    S&W40VE / S&W9VE tips

    I've got a 40VE for my primary carry. Love it. Hi-cap, well-made, inexpensive, and dependable. 1600+ rds thru it so far. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

    Golden Saber vs Gold Dot

    The hole in the nose of the Golden Sabres seems to be smaller than that in the Gold Dots and so they feed much more reliably in my 40VE. They also don't seem to have nearly the recoil of the Gold Dots. Feel pretty much the same as my practice ammo. Not to mention the Golden Sabres are much...

    C'mon - U know you want 1!!

    Can you elaborate on that a little? Are you shooting right handed? How can you sight with your left eye? I guess I probably don't understand how that gun is supposed to be shouldered.

    Bore Sighter

    My KT PF-9 POI seems to be 2" left at 25' even from a bench rest with the rear sight maxed out to the right side. I'm looking for an inexpensive bore sighter just to confirm it's the pistol and not me before I send it back for service.

    AK 47s Banned In CT?

    So does Stag (Made in CT). Mine's on order. Complete with "compensator". Of course no forward protruding grip extension, no threaded barrel, no bayonet lug, no grenade launcher provision. Damn, I wanted one of those. A2 stock. I opted not to get one of the fake collapsible stocks that are so...

    AK 47s Banned In CT?

    Would someone enlighten me please? Are AK 47 "type" rifles completely banned in the state af Connecticut? Or are they legal with feature restrictions similar to AR 15s?

    Aiming Issue

    The offset stock idea doesn't seem like a likely option for an AR bet I'm a little intrigued by the offset scope suggestion. Do you know of any company that might have a mount for a Aimpoint or Eotech type sight that would be offset enough to allow me to get my left eye behind it? I did a little...

    Aiming Issue

    This wouldn't work for me. I have no central vision in the eye at all. Only some peripferal. Wish you hadn't told me that. I can definately foresee that being a problem.
