    Fell in love today! (Makarov)

    I bought mine (Russian Baikal) in the early 90s, for a little over $100 NIB, Mags are a pain to find and expensive, but ammo is still cheap (for now) relatively.. Great gun,it feels perfect in your hand, glad I got mine, just dumb luck the shop had them, and I checked it out, took it home!

Anyway I get a call from ATF today, that I am not supposed to own a firearm for a possession conviction I got in 1976! Now I have to file for a pardon which...

    These 9mm get no repect threads got me thinking

    I don't think you can shoot 51R ammo in a 30 30 (American). The 51R is high grain (147) If you can, you could save a bunch of money on ammo, but I am sure it is a military round, and will only work in a few military issue rifles.. The "r" stands for Russian

    These 9mm get no repect threads got me thinking

    norinco ak 47 good?

    Norinco AK's are very high quality and certainly much nicer than any of the Century assembled AK's in my opinion. You are correct sir.. The guys I shot with last weekend, had a bunch of century junk, with about a $1k worth of stocks/sights/polymer, whatever bolted all over.. My open sight 84...

    These 9mm get no repect threads got me thinking

    I like my 9x18 makarov. Nice punch for the size Comfy to shoot ammo is cheap.. I have shot lots of bigger hand guns,357,45 (nice nickel randall), etc.. Really prefer shooting my rifles, but for quick access reliable point and shoot, my russian metric is great... Been looking at the Tokerav...

    Expunged Record and CC Permit

    I am waiting to pick up my new gun, and the FFL dealer is getting "delay" so I have to wait the 3 days.. I have an expunged charge from the 70s when I was a minor... The FFL guy is an officer, and he says it isn't unusual to get the delay status, but the search does show arrests even if the...

    norinco ak 47 good?

    Jumping in.. ifit, the 5.45 mag fed all the rounds... On my last outing there were a lot of guns, sks,ar,golani,fal, all total about 20 guns.. My norinco performed as well if not better than most of the guns there.. I am not a sharp shooter, but was able to put a hole just off center of a 3"...

    5.56 AK type?

    Thanks ifit... The 5.45 mags are very easy.. about a dozen file strokes on the tab, (more for you for the v notch), and about 6 strokes on the feed area (per side).. Guess I won't post about the you know what... or I could start a new thread... just to compare an AK variant to another variant???

    5.56 AK type?

    Hey all, My modded pro mag for the Norinco 223 Ak worked great this past weekend.. The 1st mag I modified was the 223, but I found out at a gun show that a 5.45 is a better fit, so I mailed back the 5 remaining mags to Centerfire, and exchanged them for the 5.45 mags. These needed much less...

    5.56 AK type?

    Thanks ifit!, Pretty much what I have done.. One thing is my Norinco mags do not have the v notch on the lock tab?? I did have to file the pitch of the tab of the Pro to catch the lock... Also the thickness of the mag had to be shaved on the sides to clear the sides.. I will try try post some...

    5.56 AK type?

    Hey again, I was able to successfully get the pro mag to clear the bolt with some more filing on top of the mag.. I haven't tried to chamber anything yet (don't have an empty casing) so until I fire a couple rounds to get some shells, I will leave it as is... Would be great if "ifit" could...

    5.56 AK type?

    Hi, Just signed up.. Need some Pro Mag mod info... I have a Norinco 84s-1 and am trying to mod the pro mags to fit. I see "ifit" has successfully made the mod... I filed the locking tang to match my original steel mag, but its not locking in and seems to be hitting the receiver. I was wondering...
