I understand that the burden of proof is supposed to be on the accuser, but with all the respect for civil rights I see these days it doesn't make me feel very comfortable. Not to make this thread at all political, but yes, the probable results of the upcoming election are what make me think...

I was wondering to myself what the possible liability of owning "Law Enforcement Only" marked standard capacity magazines will be when the new AWB is passed. They became legal for citizens under the law to own with the sunset of the old AWB, but how do you suppose the old legal ones be...

I've got a green DPMS web sling. It's not bad although the hardware isn't quite as solid as the real (surplus) web slings. The DPMS sling is also a little shorter than a military web sling. I've ordered a couple of these...

The DNR range at Huntington (Roush Lake) is very nice. There is a rangemaster on duty and they run the cease fires. There are a bunch of stations out to 25 yards, quite a few at 50 yards, and about 5 at 100 yards. The cost is only $4 for a day. There is also a trap shooting area. Check it...

Rok wrote a good summary for those of you who don't want to watch the entire thing. The one comment I would like to add after watching it myself is my amazement at how Helmke can produce shocking statistics at the drop of a hat! - Great Britain had only 24 murders in 2005? - After the DC...

Paul Helmke gave a speech at Indiana Tech yesterday. My friend got permission to video tape it. You can find it on his blog, here: http://fortwaynepolitics.com/2008/03/paul-helmke-speech-on-2nd-amendment/ I have not had a chance to watch it myself, but thought many here might be...

I will vouch for Fred's Guide as well. I've read it several times myself. Apply what you read and you'll be shooting better in no time. Get a jump on good shooting by getting a "real" rifle sling: 1907 - http://www.turnersling.com/slinguse.htm or US GI web sling -...

It looks like the Indiana bill is dead for this session at least. I did write my Rep to voice my concern that such legislation is even being introduced and urged him to fight anything similar that comes up again. Any guess as to whether this volley of legislation is back door gun control or...

The 10/22 manaul says: 8. With the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, push the safety to the “off” position and pull the trigger to decock it. The rifle can be “dry fired” for practice as long as it is empty and pointed in a safe direction. Jer..

If it truly is just the upper hand guard that is canted and not the front sight, you can rotate it around the gas tube to straighten it. See this link. http://www.ak-47.net/ak47/gastubed.html Just don't take it all the way off. Jer..

Prvi Partizan manufactures new 7.5x55 Swiss. Their brass is reloadable also, so you should be set. Jer..

Some of those sound great. Thanks for posting! Time to send off some letters of support. Jer..

I have the Beretta Cougar 8000, which is identically the same gun as far as I know. The rotating barrel is actually very simple and there is no reason to question the reliability of the pistol. I've put thousands of rounds through mine with no problems. Southern Ohio gun...

I've purchased a few firearms from Midwest Gun Exchange in Mishawaka, IN. They have a good inventory, good prices, and friendly service. It's a hike if you live near Indy, but might be worth it. www.midwestgunexchange.com Jer..

I'm assuming there are no obvious obstructions in the chamber. Are you letting the round load from the magazine, or are you inserting a round in the chamber and then trying to close the bolt? If it is the latter, extractor on the bolt head will have to make its way over the cartridge rim...

Right now the CMP is taking orders for M1 Garands, which come in your price range. They also have surplus 30-06 and it's about the cheapest ammo deal going at 23-25 cents per round shipped. Lots of history, lots of fun. A bit more involved than picking one up at the store, but they'll ship...

The cheapest I've found recently was Barnaul from Wideners. I got 1000 rounds shipped for $0.35/round. If you don't have a lot of brass yet I would be surprised if you could reload for less. The Barnaul web site lists the muzzle velocity as 2750 ft/sec, which is in line with NATO spec 7.62...

I just bought four M14 take-off slings (vg-ex condition) from Fred. They are all in great shape. Simple design, yet can be used in a manner similar to the 1907 sling. Hard to beat for under $10. http://www.fredsm14stocks.com/ Jer..

Brownell's has a schematic, but I don't think they have the part you want. http://www.brownells.com/aspx/ns/schematics/schemmfg.aspx?schemid=826&m=25&mn=SIGARMS%c2%ae&model=Trailside+ I would try Larry's Guns for the part. Good luck. http://www.larrysguns.com/ Jer..

I just got a No. 4 Mk. 1 from J&G the other day. I was very excited because externally it appeared to be in very serviceable shape. However, the barrel is completely hashed. While trying to decide if it was worth trying to rebarrel I searched gunbroker.com for Enfields and saw quite a few...
