anything special I need to know, other than include a copy of the form 4 and get insurance? what's the best way? UPS, FedEX, USPS, overnight, registered, etc.? thx

actually what should I do with my NFA paperwork? I've heard... -make color copies (because only color copies are "valid") and keep one with the gun -don't make color copies or you could be charged with counterfeiting a tax stamp; make a B&W copy to keep with the gun -keep the original and only...

...and not out of necessity? Along of the lines of "less is more" and "keep the best, sell the rest" I'm thinking of selling off at least 2/3's of my collection. Anyone here do the same and care to share their thoughts? Any regrets?

I often hear of people using air compressors to blow out all the excess crud and cleaning solvent when giving their guns a good cleaning. The only other thing I've heard in regards to this is "get one with a moisture trap" because otherwise you're just swamping your gun with rust-inducing...

never seen wood like this on an 870 Wingmaster, Remington experts have any opinion? replacement wood? something special, or something "special" to make the Wingmaster "more affordable"? this is a 90s era Wingmaster AFAIK http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=256699756

Do you ever feel like some days you're fortunate just to make it home alive?? People really make me wonder... :scrutiny: Any stories you care to share? I'd share some of mine except I honestly wouldn't know where to begin :banghead:

This may be a stupid question, but I'm serious here, if anyone has any insight... EVERY gun store and even indoor range I've been to, almost every employee seems to be armed (usually open carry but not always). Are they THAT much of a target for theft, or is there another reason? Is it that...

I bought 2K rounds of factory reloaded 9mm (FMJ) for training / practice. I had planned to use most of them in my Glock but had a brain-fart when I ordered them... I know every manufacturer has the "no reloads" warning, but every ka-boom I've ever heard of in a 9mm Glock has been with reloads...

I'm picking up parts here and there to "build" the rimfire SMG that I want, looking forward to the eventual purchase of a Norrell trigger pack (with NFA paperwork and process, of course). Do they run well with barrels with a bentz chamber, or do they require barrels with sporter chambers to be...

Sorry for the noob question, I'm new to NFA weapons and try to do my own research but I'm stumped on this one. One day I plan to buy a Norrell trigger pack (when I can afford it and if I find one). This supprressed Norrell trigger 10/22 has been on GunBroker for months, makes me think...

Gun Accumulation Syndrome. I certainly suffer from GAS and often wonder why (I do have a tendency to go overboard with things). But I've seen people on the net say they have or posted pictures of their 50+ collection of the same gun. I would ask why? but I think I already know most of the...

This may be a stupid question, and maybe the wrong subforum... forgive me. Title pretty much says it all. I've heard good things about using VCI paper to combat rust, and most often hear of people / see pics on the net of guns wrapped in VCI paper then put into a cardbaord box or gun case of...

...and where can I get some? Like that paper S&W revolvers used to come in (maybe they still do??). Is that stuff good indefinately or does it "run out"? Should a gun wrapped in this stuff be left "open" so air can circulate around it, or will that just let the paper become ineffective...

Looking for recommendations for custom grip makes (exotic wood) for Ruger Single Actions (Single Six and New Model Blackhawk). Thanks!

Does hearing protection "wear out"? Do ear muffs get to a point where they don't seal so well around the ears? Lately I've noticed my hearing protection doesn't seem to work so well anymore. I am wearing more "stuff" under my ear muffs (hat to deflect brass, safety glasses over my...

Not new to guns but completely new revolvers... how often, if ever, does one remove the side plate (on an S&W) to clean and/or lube the internals? Doesn't the cylinder come out of modern S&W's for easly cleaning (don't you remove the screw above the trigger on right side of the gun?). Do...

S&W guys complain about recent production, weather it's 2008 or 1978. I've read a lot about how qulaity of Ruger 10/22's has gone way down in recent years, for various reasons. Are Ruger DA revolvers still as good as ever, or are there certain years, models, or serial number ranges that should...

Did HK ever make P7M8 mags with no date code? Any way to tell HK mags from "fake" ones? Did anyone else ever make P7M8 mags? Thanks.

Please forgive the noob-like question but I have only one bolt action rifle that I bought years ago with no manual and haven't been able to figure it out myself or find the info on the 'net. How do you remove the bolt from an Savage-Anschutz model 10B? Anyone that knows I appreciate the...

I'm assume both only come in .22LR. Does a mag for one work in the other? What's the difference? I read somewhere the 70S has fixed sights and the 71 has adjustable, but I've seen 70S models with adjustable sights.
