    Fn-Fal This was an Irsraeli LB clone I built. So beautiful and by far my favorite firearm to shoot.

    Century Arms AK Round Exploded

    My bets on the ammo. The smoke pouring out the back is a good indicator you had a primer pocket rupture. Hot ammo and a bent firing pin retainer= nothing holding the the firing pin from shooting back. If that were my gun and I wanted to be sure, I would get a 7.62x39 go/no go gauge set to...

    Best Budget Bolt Action?

    Savage. It is highly upgradable with tons of aftermarket support in barrels, stocks, triggers, bases, and the likes. Savages are very frequently used as a base for precision rifles. In my opinion the best thing about them is their switch barrel capability. Have a 30-06, but you would...

    Sighting in a scope high powered rifle

    It definitely will change, although how much is the question. My father in law and I often shoot together at the range. He and I both have POI changes when we shoot each others rifles, even moments after the other has sighted it in perfectly. I have noticed that whenever I shoot his rifles...

    FN FAL info needed

    As you see most people are in one of two camps, love them or hate them. Seriously see if you find someone local that has one or a LGS to shoulder one. Me, I am in the camp that loves them. She isn't pretty, with some surplus wood, but I would not trade or sell ever my FAL. It would...

    Any Savage 110 builds?

    I am at a serious loss as to why a search would not find you anything. The Savage 110 platform is literally one of the top firearms in terms of aftermarket support. For any of the parts -except of course for the receiver- you can find anywhere from four or five manufacturers to at least a dozen...

    If you could hunt with anybody ever who would it be ?

    Vladimir Putin, the man is one serious bad A## Although a lot of what he does is staged, he is an avid hunter and fisherman.

    Best out of the box $400 or less .308 bolt gun?

    Good choice with the savage. For a scope try to find a used Nikon Prostaff 3-9, should run you about $100 used. You can find used ones on Ebay quite a bit. Its one amazing scope for the money and consistently gets mentioned as a top contender when people talk about sub $200 scopes. I have 3...

    Garand Group (The)

    Gotta love them Garands. Mine is a total mix-master: 1.1 million Springfield receiver, manufactured January of 1943. After the war she was sent over to the Danes, they re-barelled her with a VAR barrel, and eventually sent her back. Somewhere in transit or when the CMP got a hold if it...

    question about FN-FAL vs DS Arms SA58 FAL para

    If your ultimate goal is to have a Para, then go that route from the start. Converting a standard stock FAL will be more expensive than just buying the para from day one. But just know that due to the current political climate and fear of a potential ban, you will be paying through the nose...

    Difference between MAK 90 and an AK-47??

    Oh man, Wynn you are everywhere aren't you ;) On topic you gotta love them chinese spikers (or at least a reasonable facsimile of one) Be prepared to shell some serious $ for one if you are serious, like at least $1200 plus.

    Savage Axis stocks... anything on the horizon?

    A replacement stock for the axis/edge would not be truthfully any harder to create than the existing savage style. The major difference is that the axis/edge has a built in recoil lug as part of the stock, whereas the 110/10/ stevens 200 has it as a part of the receiver. I believe...

    My Rimfire Rifles

    +1 to getting CCI SV at Dicks. They sell the 500 round bricks for $25. Compare that to what most stores charge for 100 round packages ($7-8) and you will see how good a deal the bricks are from Dicks.

    Romanian PSL...?

    Have you considered at all the FN-Fal as a DMR choice? It shoots .308, is easily scoped, is great on ergonomics, and is readily available for under $1K

    An optic for an AR-15 hog gun?

    Check out Primary Arms. They have a nice 1-4x for $120 and have had nothing but great reviews. They also have combo options to add on a scope mount- http://primaryarms.com/product.sc?productId=205&categoryId=501

    First Rifle 22lr help.

    Another vote for the Marlin model 60 I bought mine used from a gun show for $50 out the door. They can be very frequently had for $100 used. They are excellent shooters right out of the box, and mine loves almost all types of 22lr I feed it. Its a great rifle to buy and spend some...

    Anyone ever had any luck with building an AK-47 variant from a parts kit?

    Its definitely true that its just plain cheaper to buy than to build. Tooling costs alone will astound you on the first one. Obviously once you have the tools the per build cost of the tools drops significantly. I am working on my 6th and 7th build as we speak. They are a 7.62 AKSU Krink...

    Norinco .22 Mauser Kar98K

    Its the Norinco Tu-KKW. Imported not to terribly long ago. Nice lttle rifle, most are considered excellent shooters. Problem you will run into is they are pretty difficult to find. You will see them occasionaly on Gunbroker, but not too often. Expect them to go for around $300 when you do...
