    Let the EBR Gouging Begin

    I suggest that a barrage of e-mail from constituents opposing any type of gun regulation, under the threat of losing votes, will go a very long way toward keeping our congress' collective minds on things like the economy, how to get rid of a ten trillion dollar debt (instead of increasing...

    Ruger GP100 vs SP101 trigger

    I own a GP100 in 357 and a SRH in 44mag. I converted to lighter springs from Wolff some time back because I wanted to be able to fire in double action and not struggle to hold the muzzle on target. The GP responded beautifully. The SRH, on the other hand, acted like someone threw an extra...

    Sears single shot shotgun

    If you know how the firing pin was broken, or why it was otherwise removed, this point will be moot. How..ev..er, sometimes firing pins were (are) removed intentionally because of other safety issues in the gun. Just thought I'd bring it up.....................

    CZ Scope Mounting

    If I remember correctly, the CZ 550 has a 19mm dovetail for which CZ makes rings. There are also some after-market rings made for the 19mm rail, Warne being one brand. http://www.brownells.com/aspx/ns/store/productdetail.aspx?p=7848 http://www.tjgeneralstore.com/cz_accessories.htm...

    How do you soak gun parts for cleaning?

    Codger I found one. The link is encrypted, so you'll need to google "Target store" and look in their search box for "Norpro fish poacher". I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Good luck...............

    How do you soak gun parts for cleaning?

    Codger, A little memory search (mine) tells me it came from an on-line seller called Sportsman's Guide. I looked in their site, however, and can't find it. I may have found it in a mailed, closeout flier. I'm not really sure. There's also nothing stamped on the pan that hints of the origin, so I...

    How do you soak gun parts for cleaning?

    OleCodger I waited a long time for this tray to present itself. It's a fish cooker of a sort, but suits my cleaning needs quite well. I got it from an on-line dealer somewhere and, unfortunately, I can't remember who. In any case the stuff is out there. This one was about $20, if I remember...

    Enfield Price Check

    I picked up an excellent No4-Mk1 for right at $230 at a spring '08 gun show, which is neither a bargain, nor a rip-off. It was priced right at value and it's an excellent shooter. The U.S. Property marked Savages, however, in general, seem to be somewhat more desirable and a "matching" one...

    4200 Elite 6-24x50 scope length

    chasw44, Thanks. I know you went to some trouble to get that photo. Problem is, I'm looking at the 6-24x50, which has the 30mm tube and a much shorter "look. I have a friend who noticed the sun-shade in the SWFA photo appeared to be about 1/2 the length of the scope, itself. He called SWFA...

    4200 Elite 6-24x50 scope length

    NNPF Thanks very much. It's the number I needed. However, according to specs the scope should be slightly under 17". Any way to account for the extra length. Is it possible scope measurements are taken glass, to glass?

    Question about a Garand

    I doubt anyone has modified a newer Springfield (Inc.) as a "tanker", but here is a link to Garand serial# specifics. If "your" serial# doesn't fall onto this chart somewhere it is likely NOT GI. http://www.fulton-armory.com/tea/m1serial.htm

    4200 Elite 6-24x50 scope length

    .............426245T......................I'm considering one of these as a target scope, but am baffled by the photo in SWFA's on-line catalog. The pictured scope appears to be only about twice as long as the sunshade parked next to it, while the specs list the scope length as 16.9". Is this an...

    Let's see your 6.5x55's

    Ynot, Try this link:http://www.surplusrifle.com/mauserswedish/boltdisassembly/index.asp I'll take some heat from the shactophiles (short action lovers), but I find it remarkable that the two, just possibly, most versatile cartridges ever developed are over 100 years old; The 6.5x55 Swede...

    Considering a Tikka T3 SS in 6.5x55...go or no go?

    6.5x55.......I can't think of a better caliber for your purposes. I recently bought a Tikka Lite in 6.5 (stainless is available with synthetic, only) and a T3, 30/06 in walnut. I interchanged the stocks, had the walnut bedded to the 6.5, added some appropriate glass and will be shooting the...

    CZ Replacement Stock/"Bob's Gun Parts"

    Will Tikka stocks interchange?

    Viking............You have a good idea with the knockabout 243. If the '06 had iron sights I would, for sure, be keeping both rifles. Since it doesn't I'll be hunting deer with an 03A3 this fall, or if it looks as though I'll get into some open spaces (slim chance), I'll use the 6.5. I'll...
