    A friendly note from San Diego

    Right. Luckily, we had the government to make it illegal, so this fire never happened.

    Trade my AMT Backup .45 for ???

    Thanks, Gordy. I'm considering that, but have never had anything like that done. What should a competent gunsmith charge to polish up the trigger action and feed ramp? Andy

    Trade my AMT Backup .45 for ???

    Don't worry, mainmech48, there is no bubble to burst. $500 sounded pretty out of line to me, too. I paid $329 plus tax. I can get all 6 on the paper at 10 yards pretty rapidly, but not in the 'A' Zone. If it were more pleasurable to shoot, I might practice more. With such a stiff trigger...

    Trade my AMT Backup .45 for ???

    I have an AMT Backup DAO .45 in stainless which I bought new in about '96. It has under 100 rounds through it. A police officer friend tells me it's quite a desirable gun and worth $500+. I searched on the web, looked on AuctionArms, and couldn't find anything to back this up. Anyone...

    Passing CCW tests - too easy or too hard?

    I voted for the last option, since I couldn't see anywhere to vote for "Vermont Carry".

    What's a good "Living off the Land" .22 rifle?

    Sure, you could shoot a rabbit every day, but watch out for "rabbit starvation." Google it. Gotta eat something with fat in it, too.

    Ok....serious advice needed about death threats..

    Provide the potential victim with a copy of Gavin DeBecker's book, The Gift of Fear. An eye-opening book on the ineffectiveness of restraining orders, common-sense ways of staying safe, cutting off ties to potential threats, etc. Excellent despite couple of anti-gun sentences in the book...

    .308 Win / 7.62x51 Ammo questions

    Thanks for all the replies. The guy at the gun shop where I bought the rifle is selling the Spanish 1980 stuff for $3.65/20. I will probably go and buy him out (he has most of a case left.) Since this isn't sealed up, it will be my practice ammo. I'm not interested in reloadability, as I'm...

    .308 Win / 7.62x51 Ammo questions

    I bought a C91 (G3, HK-91) as my SHTF gun. I plan on buying close to 1000 rds, preferably in battle packs. I see a big variety of prices on places like auctionarms and gunbroker, for surplus NATO stuff. I got some Spanish 1980 from my local dealer where I bought the C91, and it was pretty nice...

    Thanks for the hint, hksw. I have now made one similar to the above from a dog leash. Seriously. Andy

    You could use the camera's timer to take that picture, no worries.

    G3 / HK-91 sling attachment?

    Thanks. According to the guys on hkweaponsystems.com forum, it's an American-made buttstock, for parts count purposes, with no attachment point to keep the costs down most likely. So, any suggestions for sling attachment? The buttstock is hollow, made from a gray plastic.

    G3 / HK-91 sling attachment?

    "Not even a hole like for the CETME?" Where would the hole be?

    G3 / HK-91 sling attachment?

    Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right board. I recently bought a HK-91 allegedly built with all genuine HK parts on a new Century receiver. It did not come with a sling of any kind. There is an attachment loop by the front sight, but no attachment point of any kind on the buttstock. All...
