    Lapua Midas M or Midas L - difference?

    What's the difference between Lapua's Midas M and Midas L .22 LR ammunition? According to the spec sheet on their website, they're identical. Same bullet weight, same ballistics. I've got an old Mossberg 142A that absolutely loves this stuff. With Federal bulk, I get three-inch groups at...

    Pasadena Firearms/Beretta pistol

    I recently acquired a small self-loading pistol in 7.65mm (.32 ACP). The markings on the slide indicate that it is by Pasadena Firearms, but all of the other markings point to a Beretta make. The Pasadena Firearms marking is obviously hand-stamped in a ground-off area. There's a good picture...

    Great Christmas present

    The December 9th Day by Day, at this link: http://www.daybydaycartoon.com/ shows Sam's great taste in Christmas presents. Pity about the length of time the machine gun licenses take, though.

    Savage Model 5 bolt-action .22

    Does anyone have any information about Savage Model 5s? I just got one, and I'd like to find out when they were made. There's no serial number, so I'm pretty sure it pre-dates 1968. I'd also like to find a manual, or at least disassembly instructions for the bolt. I've been told it's the...

    I just got a Yugo SKS toolkit (the round one that fits in the buttstock). One component is a littke piece that I can't quite figure out. It's a flat, oblong piece of metal with two prongs on one end. The other end is shaped like a screwdriver blade, but slightly rounded. What is this used...

    Voting responsibility act

    While mowing the yard today, I had an idea. We're all familiar with the various Voting Rights Acts that have been passed in the last few decades. One thing that those acts didn't do, however, was to instill a sense of responsibility towards voting and citizenship. My thought today is that we...

    BRNO Czech 98/22 Mauser quality?

    In general, how do the BRNO Mausers rate for quality? I'm thinking of buying one. Obviously, at this point the individual rifles are going to vary quite a bit in condition, but I'd like to know if BRNO did good work in building these. Thanks. Roger

    Need info on Ward's Western Field 16M 20ga

    A friend of mine has inherited an old Wards 20ga shotgun and asked me to help figure it out. I know pretty much nothing about shotguns. This is a bolt-action gun with a fixed box magazine that looks like it could hold two or three shells. The outside length (front - to - back) of the magazine is...
