First off, I just had hand surgery for a damaged tendon so pics/range report will have to wait (sorry). As it is I'm having to type this one-handed so apologies for any brevity on my part. Disclaimer: I have no affiliation w/Mako or Meprolight except as a retail customer. Pics/basic info here...

Which is the more controllable 9mm in rapid fire, the CZ P-07 or SIG SP2022? Tomac

An LED add-on to the M21 is now available for those who fear reticle washout, pics & my review here: http://bullpupforum.com/index.php?topic=2886.0 For the record, I have no connection w/this company except as a retail customer and I received no gratuities of any kind (I paid full price for the...

My 22yr-old son wants a .357 but I haven't owned one for years. Loved my GP-100 and I know they're still available but what other makes/models should I investigate for him? (Thinking 4" or 6" bbl, stainless). Thx! Tomac

I have my primary SD/HD rifle exactly the way I want it now but have no other rifles worth mentioning. Is it worth it to have an identical backup rifle? I'd have to stretch just a little (but not much, only 2.9% fixed and that would be paid off shortly) to get one now before the elections. So...

Anyone know if the NDM-86 Dragunov is legal in Maryland? Thx!... Tomac

I was looking over the reticle pics I have of the 8x42 Pro & 1P21 aiming at my range's 750m gong. The gong looks significantly larger in the 1P21 pic (set at 750m, supposedly 7.5x magnfication). So, today I took my NDM-86 Dragunov w/the 1P21 to the range along w/an 8x42D Pro and sure enough...

A couple of days ago I found a nice piece of BLM land to really stretch the legs of my NDM-86/1P21 combo. I picked out a likely-looking light-colored spot (appx 4' wide & 3' tall) on a hillside and ranged it w/my LRF by walking most of the way out and ranging to both the hillside and back to my...

I just got back from the range after some informal and highly unscientific testing of the SilverBear 115gr 9x18 JHP for the Makarov. Recoil is definitely stouter as expected but not really abusive (wouldn't want to shoot 100's of rds in one day, though). I fired 100rds total. Accuracy doesn't...

I'm a complete noob when it comes to Maks but the more I heard/read about them the more intrigued I became. Finally, after reading through *every single page* in this forum I decided to pick up a couple even though I've never fired a Mak and the only one I've seen up close was a beat-up IJ70 at...

What's the best location for a shotgun tactical light pressure pad and why? Thx!... Tomac

This is the Saiga-12 conversion I just received from Elite Firearms. Just got back from the range and I think I've finally found my shotgun! Fired nearly 100rds of WallyWorld low base loads plus 15rds of slug & 20rds of 00. The Saiga has a gas port with settings for low & magnum loads. It's...

Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with nor have I received any compensation from Elite Firearms. My Saiga-12 conversion from Elite Firearms arrived today at my FFL via Priority Mail. Needless to say I couldn't wait to get that package open after filling out my yellow form! I had sent them a...

Took one of my 5.45 SEAKs out to the range early this morning (sliver moon, no useful illumination) to test the range of the Znich tactical light & the effectiveness of the Bulgarian AR-M1 flash suppressor. Fired appx 20rds with my head well above the bore so I could observe muzzle flash. There...

Rifle: NDM-86 (.308) w/PSOP 8x42D scope & Russian black plastic furniture. Ammo: Georgia Arms "Canned Heat" 168gr match. Weather: *No* wind for nearly 2 hours! Overcast & cool, no mirage, nearly ideal shooting conditions! (Had I known I would have brought the Black Hills 168gr Moly Match!)...

Rifle: NDM-86 in .308 Ammo: Georgia Arms "Canned Heat" (168gr match load in once-fired Lake City brass): http://www.georgia-arms.com/canned.htm Mods: Russian SVD furniture & 8x42D scope courtesy of Tantal: http://tantal.kalashnikov.guns.ru/ Trigger job: 1.5-2lbs, smooth & clean...

Range conditions: Cold (appx 26F), 6"-8" of snow & inversion overcast. Too much snow to use my bowling pins for reactive targets (no contrast!) so had to settle for my sight-in paper target and the range gongs. I'd adjusted the rail stop screw on my PK-AS for a better fit to my SAR-2 so I had...

My PK-S01 arrived this morning from Tantal. Actually it's the PK-SA which appears to be identical except it has a 2MOA elevation adjustment wheel instead of the 9.3mm BDC cam and has a non-rangefinding circle instead of the rangefinding ellipse (new "sporting" version?). The PK appears much...

What is currently considered the "best" of the current crop of CETMEs with regards to reliability/accuracy/trigger pull that will also accept the STANAG scope mount? Thx!... Tomac

I recently bought a "Hawk Industries" shotgun from CDNN and except for the markings is *identical* to my Norinco 982 (Big 5 is even advertising it as the "Hawk 982"). What with the Norinco import ban I'm wondering if this is Norinco's way of circumventing the import ban? Tomac
