    Making My Kahr Thompson M1 Into A SBR M1...?

    Copy. In totality, all of these answers make sense. Trying to piece it together was confusing. Thanks much..!

    Making My Kahr Thompson M1 Into A SBR M1...?

    Ha! I should read those instructions better. It has been a long time since I filled out a Form 1, and the last time it was spoon fed to me. Speaking of the last time, the last time I did one I did it without a trust. I believe I will make a trust for this one. Can I move my other Class III...

    Thompson M1, not M1 carbine. The folder is cool, though...

    Making My Kahr Thompson M1 Into A SBR M1...?

    Good info. To me more clear, Kahr / Auto Ordnance makes a 10.5 barrel, and should they ever come back into stock, that's what I would like to use. However, I don't want to box myself in with words and might also want to modify the barrel I have now. Note boxes a, b, c, g, h and i... Box a...

    Making My Kahr Thompson M1 Into A SBR M1...?

    I have a Kahr Thompson M1 that I bought new about 20 years ago. It has a 16 inch barrel and is SA of course. I have entertained making it a WWII replica (of sorts) by either making the barrel 10 inches or getting a 10 inch barrel and installing it. Obviously this would make it an NFA weapon...

    Savage 10 FP Scope Base?

    Actually, yes, now that you reminded me, I have seen this. I tried calling EGW the other day to verify the P/N and fitment, but they never answered. Also at the time I was looking for 20 MOA, and that one is sold out from Midway, so I forgot and moved on. I'm back to 0 MOA now. My mistake. This...

    Savage 10 FP Scope Base?

    I have an older Savage 10FP chambered in .223 (so it's short action). It was made about 2002, which means it's pre-Accu-trigger and the receiver is round at the front (chamber/barrel end) but is flat in the rear (safety end). I am trying to find a one piece 1913 Picatinny rail (0 MOA would be...

    Good information. Thanks much! Any thoughts on the Zeiss Diavari?

    Optics Recommendations

    ^^^ There's more to the differences, such as zero stop. But I don't know what that means to me and for my needs. NXS has zero stop, but BRs do not. As far getting to 800 and when zeroed at 100, I'd prefer to dial in some elevation rather than holdover. I think (and I could be wrong), that that...

    Optics Recommendations

    I do plan on using a 20MOA base. I am giving thought to the BR 12x42, too. It doesn't bust the budget by much. Can someone explain why an NXS would be better than a BR for my needs? I'm guess what I am really asking is why an NXS is more money and considered by some to be better than the BR?

    High quality optic for shooting targets (steel, paper, varmints) at 500 yards and more. From a bench, mostly. Adjustments and gizmos don't bother me as long as they can be made to work. This isn't my first scope or my first gun, but I've always known the limitations of my lowly VXII and IIIs in...

    Optics Recommendations

    Looking for opinions, and I'm sure I'm going to get a few different ones. I'm just getting into long range shooting. Competition? Maybe at some point, but for now I'm just trying to hang with my long range buddies (who shoot a lot of capable wildcat calibers). Shots would be from 500 to 1000...

    What to carry on a road trip, when you can't carry

    Because of the similarity, I figured I'd link my thread: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=613356

    Ohio CHL Reciprocity Agreements - No Texas, So...?

    Well, I just called the Ohio attorney general's office and asked them about the options. When it comes to guns, there are none. The man there said that weapons are weapons to them. I asked about long guns (rifles/shotguns and the ability to have one with me in my vehicle or hotel room - not...

    Ohio CHL Reciprocity Agreements - No Texas, So...?

    Hmmm. I found the below thread and feel like it's probably pretty close to the same for me. Even though NY sucks more, since Ohio doesn't reciprocate with Texas with regard to CHLs, for out-of-towners, NY and Ohio may as well be the same in this case...

    Ohio CHL Reciprocity Agreements - No Texas, So...?

    Ohio doesn't recognize a Texas CHL. As a Texas resident, I hate traveling to locations where I can't carry. But even though Ohio won't let me carry, I can still have a gun with me during my Ohio excursion, correct? I assume that I would have to lock it and keep it in the trunk of the car or...

    Refinishing Wood on a Shotgun

    Here's some pix of the gun and the wood. The buttstock is still finished. The pix make the finish look a little better than it is - it's not great and could never pass for factory. The foregrip has issues. The checkering is, as mentioned before, a bit hairy, and still has varnish or whatever in...

    Refinishing Wood on a Shotgun

    Update: I figured I'd call Fausti USA and see since it's been so long. The man there told me they can get the replacement wood, and it's $196. Not super-cheap, but not even close to very expensive. I may go this route, but I'm still curious what others say.

    Refinishing Wood on a Shotgun

    I have a Fausti Traditions O/U shotgun that I got from a friend recently, and it has an aesthetics problem. The furniture, which is supposed to be walnut with a little checkering and a light stain finish (and actually looks quite nice) when unmolested, has had a gloss finish applied to it. (He...
