Either way, you're getting rid of the evidence. If you take the time to remove the barrel of a gun, it doesn't matter if you're worrying about barrel markings or serial numbers, the evidence is gone. The receiver of a gun is the part where all of the other, smaller parts attach. It would be...

I've been there man...too many times. I live in South Florida too, and have a car with a black dash. Tint helps overall, but not much on the dash, those mirrored sun shades help, but are a pain. I've experienced something similar with an all-black steel 1911, but I'm a DAILY victim of being...

My .177 Crosman Phantom with a one-piece scope mount and cheapie Walmart Tasco scope is as accurate as I'll ever need it, cheap, and quite powerful. It's only $89.95 and I love it. It will go through 1/2 inch plywood at 5 yards, that means lights out for any pigeon within 100 feet (or more if...

No worries, it's just copper residue that has formed a patina (copper oxidation) from being exposed to the air. It will come off with some copper remover and light brushing. My WASR gets it on the crown and flash hider every time I shoot. One day (with friends and family), I managed to put 1000...

I have a WASR-10 that I purchased back in September. After about 2000 rounds of Milsurp, Steel and Brass, I have literally have not had ONE malfunction, not even a burp, nothing. The wood looks pretty crappy (you can refinish it to look great!), the metal itself has extensive tooling marks...

25 yards isn't really a face-off...it's 75 feet...that's some distance. I'd try to run. If I could PICK a gun and a target, then obviously something like .454, .50AE, .500 S&W, or .44Mag. If I could pick a shot, then definitely center-mass heart. I don't care what kind of organism you are, a...

I wouldn't say they're not ergonomic...they fit my frame well and handle well. The foregrips also are easier to hold (for me) than AR15 grips. But the AK-47 wasn't a rifle designed to be fired accurately from the shoulder like an M16/M4. It was supposed to be fired from the hip, full auto...

$800 can set you up with some nice AK-pattern rifles. WASRs, Yugos, and Saigas can be had new, and some of the nicer models (Arsenal) can probably be found used. Keep in mind that with the current gun buying panic, you may have trouble finding the gun you want, and when you do find it, you may...

I picked mine up back in early January. Make sure you oil it (with good stuff) before you take it to the range, it's a little dry from the factory. Also, I got a feeling that the bolt assembly and the receiver were a little "rough" right out of the box, which led to a gritty action, it kinda...

I know I'm not around here very often, but to me, it seems like you're not quite ready for that CCW. It would be a terrible outcome if you were confronted with a situation where you had to use your weapon, but you were overcome with fear and hesitated. It could turn from a relatively peaceful...

SAME problem on my custom 1911. Gun feeds and shoots reliably, but that last round has that crimp damage in 3/5 magazines. I'm certain it's not the magazine, ejector, or extractor (all have been checked, rechecked, gunsmithed, and rechecked). My next step will be to get an 18LB spring and a new...

I haven't had any issues finding Ammo (North-Central Florida). WalMart is always in stock (granted any 7.62x39 and .22LR bulk packs are very hit-or miss), and the Gander Mountain near me is basically at FULL STOCK. It still has .223 Wolf on the shelves. I used to have to buy the $14.99/20...

"Mosin" 99.9% of the Mosin rifles purchased nowadays in America are shootable. They are arsenal refinished in Ukraine (look for a square with a diagonal line through it, the refinisher's mark), and the bad ones are tossed out and scrapped, and the good ones are sent to the states. HOWEVER, if...

I just picked up a Savage Mark 2 with the AccuTrigger. I scavenged a Bushnell Illuminated 3-9x40 scope and a one-piece mount from a Crosman that I haven't used in a while. Using CCI Mini-Mags (HP), the accuracy was nothing short of spectacular (and I'm DEFINITELY no sharpshooter), and I was...

I picked up a Russian Mosin-Nagant 91/30 at Gander Mountain a few weeks ago. Everything looked good, arsenal refinished, great finish on the barrel and action, well-refinished stock, 1 year warranty, etc. etc. Everything went well. Took it home, cleaned up the cosmoline, ran a few patches...

Cannot conceal carry rifles in Florida. Cannot conceal carry handguns until you are 21. I wouldn't want to be caught with it, especially loaded, because unless if you have a REALLY good argument that you were hunting or fishing, you're looking at serious jail time. For the time being, invest in...

I've read a few threads in the past few days where THRs claim that to own a handgun under the age of 21 is completely illegal, and in some cases even claim that it's a felony. Though laws vary state-to-state, that blanket statement just ISN'T true. In many cases it is completely legal to own...

If you have to ask... I'm no ballistics expert, but if you have ANY doubts about the efficacy of your chosen round, maybe it isn't the round that you should be using. My recommendation would be to go with tried and true rounds, like 9, .40, .45, and countless others. I personally use .45 for...

I don't think removing the slant break without replacing it is a great idea. The slant is designed to push the rifle to the left to counteract the violence of the right-hand bolt. Removing it you'll notice a higher amount of kick. And my brake is VERY loose and it still shoots great groups out...
