    I got the email this afternoon...

    Very nice looking gun Wes. Congrats. I know you've been wanting one for a while, especially after shooting my H&R. Maybe we can take them out soon... I haven't shot my Springfield yet.

    Marlin 1894 .44 Mag 16" barrel - good trunk gun?

    Too purty. Find a Marlin 336 at $200.

    Do all new 870s have Flexitab?

    This is a new shotgun. Sorry for not being clear about that. I read somewhere that many people thought all new shotguns had it, but I am just trying to confirm. The Remington site lacks any info about it.

    Do all new 870s have Flexitab?

    As the title says, do all 870s have Flexitab? Looking at an 870 Express w/ 18" barrel. Trying to find a shotgun for my buddy to carry in his patrol car, and they require Flexitab. Thanks in advance.

    which one?

    I voted for the K31. I don't have one, I haven't shot one, but I really, really want to. Not only is the straight pull just awesome, but they are beautiful rifles. Soon, hopefully...

    For single shot rifle fans

    I never thought I would, but I am actually starting to get a little interested in single-shot rifles. It all started the other day when I read a thread about the Ruger #1.

    Stevens 200 new comer question

    I just got a Stevens 200 in 7mm-08, and it's my understanding that the Savage and the Stevens are virtually identical. I've seen aftermarket triggers recommended many times - I too will be interested to hear about changing the stock, though.

    Taking the new Stevens 7mm-08 out for a spin this week.

    I was going to take my SKS out whitetail hunting this year, but pops decided that since he had never formally bought me a rifle when I was a young 'un, he wanted to get me a rifle in a caliber he'd heard nothing but good things about: 7mm-08. So after doing a bit of searching, I suggested the...

    SKS upgrade question...

    The Tapco mags can only be inserted with the bolt open. So if you remove a mag and then close the bolt, you'll have to hold the bolt back while you insert the mag to get it in. It's not a big deal. Just leave the bolt open - it locks open on an empty mag anyway. :scrutiny: I'm not saying the...

    SKS upgrade question...

    My experience has been just the opposite. 100% reliability with the Tapco detachable mags. Ran them in a Norinco SKS in a Tapco T6 stock. Great combo.

    Pictures of my new-to-me Model 042 coming soon. Just picked her up last week - finally get to be a member.

    Colt police positive

    Numrich's has Police Positive Special barrels, but the shortest they have in stock is 4". Cost is listed at $41. However, they also have a variety of Detective Special barrels in stock. Many are for the newer issue DS with the shrouded barrel. Not sure if those will fit the old frame. They...

    7.62x39 vs. deer results...

    I was planning on hunting a little with my SKS using Wolf 153gr soft points, but changed my mind at the last minute and picked up a Stevens in 7mm-08. Still, if I were hunting whitetail, I would take the Wolf or Corbon 150-ish grain soft points. Ballistically they're a lot closer to 30-30 than...

    Best deer ammo

    If we're talking different calibers, I'm giving 7mm-08 a try this year... heard nothing but good things.

    Best deer ammo

    I think Nosler Partition 55gr soft point is the way to go in .223.

    Considering Yugo SKS M59/66A1 purchase to add to arsenal...few questions

    +1 to grimjaw's suggestion on the unconverted Saiga, ALTHOUGH you'd be hard pressed to find it in the same price range - if you can get one locally for $350, that's probably $50 more than you're looking at for a transfer on a Yugo SKS. But to me - it's $50 well spent. As for detachable...

    Help me build my first AR

    Spike's Tactical produces (what I think is) the most popular dedicated .22 LR upper. I would go that route. Personally I would not spend money on the tacti-cool crazy piston upper. That's just WAY too much cash - heck, I think it'd be cheaper to get the other barreled upper and convert it to...

    The Greatest Battle Rifle Ever Devised

    Hmm. M14!

    Ishapore 2A ((DEATH TO 56K))

    The Enfields had detachable mags but weren't designed to be repeatedly detached - you'll damage the feed lips on the mag if you treat them that way.
