I have three of the CenterPoint Walmart cheapies and they work. Repeatedly (several hundred rounds through a .308, a .270, and a 7.62x54R sporter). I have not had any problems and the sights work flawlessly. The two former rifles are both Marlin turnbolts. I figure I paid very little for a...

I looked at the staking tool. Easy to fabricate (I'm also a blacksmith, so metal is a familiar medium for me). That said, the current sight can't be staked as it is too short. The stake hole is clean through though. It is a round stake, and most of the ones I've seen for sale are square...

Hello all, I purchased an FM90 Argentine Hi Power from J&G Sales. It came in a box with one magazine and looks brand new (though I know it isn't). I disassembled it and everything is clean and in great condition. Took it to the range and being my first hi-power, it bit my hand. After...

If you have access to a horzontal/vertical bandsaw, it goes much better. I shorten barrels by using a micrometer to measure the barrel thickness in two places. I then use electrical tape to build up the diameter of the two points to the same exact thickness. I determine the two points based...

Well, even though people don't like the discussion, I do find it interesting as it confirms that my experience wasn't unique. I actually saw the owner get over excited with a friend and pointing a revolver at him, pulled the trigger several times. Click, click, click, click.... Scared me...

Bolts and actions open (save for break opens) in my special built gun closet. Much easier to visibly see quickly if they are loaded or not. Ammo placed on shelves below firearms for quick access should the need arise. I keep a machete next to the bed just in case the dog doesn't notice an...

I agree with Guy. Historically speaking, half cock was a second notch on the hammer that the sear could not escape. We used to test half cock by hanging a rifle from the trigger in half cock. If it let go, we would disqualify it. The rebounding hammer is effectively just in the fired...

I put (or rather my friend did after I let him try it) 100 round through my new CZ82 today. First day out, just a light cleaning beforehand and that little beast just ate through that ammo. The most pleasant handgun I've ever shot.

Heh. Yeah, it is military surplus. Left handed. Does put in sharp relief the ambidextrous nature of the CZ82! In Czech I guess they were allowed to be lefties! I've found a few good holsters online made for this gun (or rather will fit this gun), so finding a new one isn't that impossible...

Hello all! After years of collecting long arms, I finally got my first hand gun, a CZ82. Boy does it fit my hand well and points perfectly. Can't wait for the ammo to come next week so I can give it a run. I plan to restore it (duracoat), maybe some wood handles (though these fit great)...

Write often, write well Another point: Write to your congress critter. Don't write to the Republicans, write to them all. On nice paper in a nice envelope. They ignore email. Real letters get attention. Next, write your newspapers. Compose clear concise arguments for why defending the...
