    Gun buy back in DALLAS TEXAS?!

    Update: I just watched a video of a blogger at the event. Early in the video, after he had talked to us in the parking lot, the DPD officer admitted there was no ordinace against selling in the parking lot. They lied! I'm pissed! Mr Fixit

    Gun buy back in DALLAS TEXAS?!

    Well, I went. I know for a fact that by 9:45, at least one Ithica pump, one auto shotgun (either smith and wesson or Remington), one .22 rifle and a single shot shotgun went in. I was in the parking lot when they did. I, and at least 2 others were there to make offers and buy. Dallas...

    Gun buy back in DALLAS TEXAS?!

    I plan on going. I'm going to make a sign that says "Licensed Collector, paying cash". I wonder what will show up. If I can save one gun from destruction, isn't it worth it? Mr Fixit

    Excellent Ceramic Base Paint for Refinishing Firearms

    I haven't used the 1200*, only reporting what I heard. I think the problem was found when it was "cooked" to cure for too long. I have used the 500*, and had good experience with it. Sounds like either one would work fine, provided it is applied properly.

    Olymipic FAL, any good?

    I have never seen one in person. I don't believe very many of them were produced. However, Gunplumber over on the FAL Files(owner of Arizona Response Systems) did a review a while back on them. See his review here. This is the Summary: Summary The Olympic Arms T48 2000 is a low...

    Yamamoto quote - authentic?

    I had heard the quote before, but I believe it was made after the war. Not sure if it was by Yamamato or some one else. I heard it was given as an answer to the question of something like "Did the Japanese plan on invading the US?" The answer was (to paraphrase): "No, we had no plans to...

    AR-15 Pseudo-Shorties - why?

    You can always get a reverse 5.5" flash hider for your 16" barrel. Basically, it is a sleeved flash hider that looks like the XM177, but only extends past the barrel about the length of an A2 birdcage. It has internal threads sorta like the STOLL on a STG58 FAL. You could still get 16"...

    Post pics of your "for no good reason" guns

    I'll play: The paint job is just because, the gun has good reason.
