    Price of Springfield commercial Garand in .308

    A friend of mine has for sale a springfield M-1 Garand in 7.62x51 that I would love to pick up. It is one of the commercially produced rifles they made in the late 1990's. I can not find any indication on line what these are going for. There are plenty of conversions around but I can not find...

    Ruger Frontier or Savage Scout?

    I would like to pick up a compact general purpose "scout" type rifle. Looking for compactness, easy handling and .308 Win. Both the Ruger Frontier and the Savage 10FCM Scout are appealing. I like the 16.5" bbl on the Ruger and its shorter stock - I have a short length of pull and it fits...

    Caliber Conversions a la MCA

    Rusty Duck Black Off

    My local Wal-Mart has pre-saturated Rusty Duck Black Off cleaning patches on close out, marked down to $0.50/jar from $4.97. These are well saturated but with little to no standing liquid. Has anyone had much experience with these? At $0.50/jar I figure one can not go wrong. I picked up...

    SKS stovepipe

    A friend and I were shooting his new yugo SKS. We had done a pretty thorough job of cleaning out the gunk, etc. Problem is, the gun stovepiped just about every round. The ammo was good as I had shot a bunch out of my Norinko SKS. Any idea or direction as to what the problem may be?
