    How mush should I sell my Yugo Tok + accessories for?

    How much should I sell my Yugo Tok + accessories for? I'm considering selling my Yugo Tokarev and related accessories/ammo and was wondering what a reasonable asking price would be for the lot. The gun is in decent condition; it's clearly surplus, but it hasn't been abused and the inside of...

    My First Handgun

    A Yugo M57 Tokarev from Wideners. It's an awesome feeling having a handgun delivered right to your door. Fresh from the box and looking like Swamp Thing: All cleaned up: Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but I'm hoping maybe this weekend. It seems to function...

    Any options for a Yugo Tokarev?

    Is there anything out there besides the bulky leather holster that comes with the gun? I don't have any particular style in mind, I'm mostly just curious to see if there's anything available that's a little nicer than the issued holster. I'd mostly use it at the range or around the house...

    Short term gun purchasing advice needed

    I'm a New Yorker living in North Dakota for the summer, and while I'm here I'd like to take advantage of my ability to purchase a handgun without a permit and the hassle I'd have to go through to own one back home. Since I don't have a NY permit and cannot own a handgun there, I'd be selling it...

    How long before corrosive ammo starts damaging the barrel?

    I shot some surplus 7.62x54R in my M44 this morning, but I have some errands to run this afternoon and don't have time to clean it right away. I sprayed some Windex in there, will the barrel be safe for the next five hours while I'm out? Everyone always says to clean it when you get home, does...

    Failure To Fire Problem

    Since I borrowed the old Ruger 77/22 from the family safe in September, I've had a lot of trouble with it. At first I thought it was just bad ammo, but I tried Federal, Remington, CCI, and a few others and they all have issues. I thought it was normal to get a few duds in each box, but now I...

    Bayonets in NY

    I was out shooting with a friend yesterday, and he let me try out his Mosin Nagant. I had been wanting to buy one for a while, and all the ones I've seen had bayonets attached. His did not, so I asked him about it and he said it was illegal in NY to affix a bayonet to a rifle. I know we've...

    Sling Help

    I'm looking to put a sling on my 870 Express, but I don't know what I need and the search button isn't working for me. I don't have a drill or many other tools, is it still possible for me to install the mounts myself? What exactly do I need to get a sling on there, I'm not looking for...

    C&R and Handguns

    I'm a NY state resident and will be turning 21 shortly. I was considering applying for a CCL so I could own a handgun, but the fee is quite a lot and I'm not sure if I'll be in this state much longer. I'd hate to shell out $200 and then move a few months after I get the permit. I was reading...

    Ruger 77/22 Sights and Scope Question

    I've been trying to shoot my Ruger 77/22 at 100 yards with the factory sights, and cant hit a thing. I'm not the best shot, but I'm not that bad. I've got bad eyes and I think I'm just having trouble with the sights. The little white diamond thing just doesnt do it for me. I'd like to know...

    Input needed regarding CCW license

    I really want to get my CCW license, and I'm almost 21. However, I'm not sure if now is the best time to do it. I'm currently a college student (living off campus) so I couldnt carry most of the time, and I'll graduate in another year. I'll be a wildlife technician for a while after that, and...

    Ruger Rotary Magazine

    I've borrowed (hopefully permanently:)) a Ruger 77/22 that's been sitting in the family safe for a few years, and prior to that it belonged to my uncle who was moving and wanted to get rid of his guns. I'm guessing it's pretty old, and I dont know when it was last used. I decided to make sure...

    How do you store your defensive weapon(s)?

    I'm pretty set on getting a Remington 870 12ga for home defense. I live next to my college campus in an apartment with my girlfriend. I'm trying to solve any potential problems before I get the shotgun, and so far all I'm unsure about is how to store it. I live in a small apartment, so a safe...

    Good price for a new 870 Express?

    My local Gander Mountain has the 870 Express for $270, after a $30 rebate. Is that a decent price for a new 870? I've heard Gander Mountain prices firearms a bit high, and I dont know where else to check to see if this is a good deal. Thanks guys.

    Garands from CMP?

    I've got a pretty small firearms budget and was pretty set on a Remington 870 for my next purchase, but I "accidentally" came in here and read through some of the threads on the Garand and now I really want one. I was looking through the CMP's site and was considering one of their field grade...

    My first day at the range

    Today I went trap shooting at a local range with my younger brother, my dad, and some family friends. My dad was concerned because I was bringing a .22 with me to college and wanted to get a shotgun as well because I'm interested in hunting. He was under the impression that I knew nothing...

    Finding a Range?

    I've checked the NRA listings and google, and have had no luck finding a range within a suitable distance (45 minutes, my car cant handle too many long drives). I live in Syracuse NY, and just moved off campus and dropped some stuff off at my new apartment (most importantly, a Ruger 77/22...

    I think I want to start hunting

My family has a few 20 gauges(Remington 1100, Remington 870, Savage BSE Series H) in the safe, they were given to us by an uncle along with a few other guns, but I've...
