    NEEDED S&W 39-2 safety

    When I graduated high school my Dad passed his S&W 39-2 down to me. When my younger brother graduated I passed it down to him because he didn't own any guns at all and I figured that he would need a gun to defend himself wherever he decided to go to college. He never carried it, but when he...

    Need help refinishing an AK stock

    I have never finished a stock before but I would like to do the one on my AKM so that the butt stock and forearm match. The rifle looks like this. The forearm on the rifle looks nice and has a good coat of whatever-the-romanians-put-on-it. The butt stock isn't finished at...

    Cavalry arms C1 fixed stock

    I'm short. And for a long time I put up with the fixed A2 stock on my rifle. But I always wanted something just a little shorter. I could have gone to a collapsible stock but my rifle is somewhat of a utility rifle that serves both a defense and sporting purpose. For that reason I wanted to...

    Palmetto state armory Dissipator review

    First I want to say that I had no issues with their customer service. I e-mailed Palmetto twice about the status of my order and was responded to both times with a friendly and polite note telling me that my upper was still being built and that it would take 15 days to get it out. I placed...

    Who carries a Sig 232? Likes? Dislikes?

    Who here carries a Sig P232? What do you like about it? What do you dislike about it? I like the trigger, the fact that has a de-cocking lever, the sights, and the way it fits in my hand. It's a good size as well. Lightweight and easy to carry. I don't like the finger extension on...

    Ar-15 as handy as a shotgun?

    I was just struck by a major epiphany. A 20" barreled A2 AR-15 is only one inch longer than an 18.5 inch barreled shotgun. Lose the flash suppressor and they are very close to the same length. Bushmaster XM-15E2S http://www.bushmaster.com/catalog_military_MCWA3S20.asp Remington 870...

    Veterans, identify this piece of gear.

    I know there are a lot of Vets on this board so that's why I'm asking this here. I need their expertise. An old Vet gave me this box years ago and said it was radio from a B-25 Mitchell bomber. I'm not so sure. Can anyone identify this? It might be going to go into a P-51 Mustang...

    Home/self defense and old man winter

    Winter is upon us again up here in Minnesota. A quick check of my local weather tells me that the outside temp is 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Sweatshirt weather for some, unlivable for others. The wind is blowing at a brisk 24 mph causing me to shiver and my mind wander while I relax in my...

    First deer with my AK-47

    Typically I hunt with a 30-06 but this year I decided to shake things up a bit so I brought my AK along instead. It worked well. With its folding stock, 3 point sling, and short 16" barrel I found it to be much more comfortable to carry around all day than my 26" barreled deer rifle...

    Short barrel rifle project suggestions and help

    I've finally decided after years of shooting that what my collection really needs is a short barrel rifle. I decided this after coming down with a health problem that won't let me shoot my shotguns or any stout recoiling rifles anymore. I still want to shoot and thought that a lightweight...
