    Dry firing - Ruger MK II

    The Ruger MK I does *not* have the firing pin block, so don't dry fire those if you can help it. In general it isn't a good idea with .22's as others have said, but the MK II does have a block built into it. I don't make a habit out of it anyway though.

    Current AK options?

    I didn't think the Saiga's were coming in anymore. Has anyone seen one for sale lately? Still kicking myself for not getting one when they were $159.....

    H&R M12, Moss 144 CMP rifles

    I realized that like so often happens, I didn't actually answer your question. Between those two I would get the Mossy. Havlin Sales makes a Weaver mount that screws into the receiver on the Mossy using existing tapped holes. Works great and is about 25 bucks. - Dave

    H&R M12, Moss 144 CMP rifles

    Are you buying these through the CMP? For those prices I would agree on getting a CZ. I have a Mossy Model 44 actually have 2. They are great guns, but they may be getting down to the bottom of the barrel. I like to look at them in person. I did not get mine throught the CMP program BTW...

    Flitz Question

    I think the guy who suggested washing the gun off with a toothbrush is right on. Flitz is a *very* mild abrasive more like fine polish. I don't think it would have rubbed the tenifer finish out of the metal, it would have had to actually take off some metal to do that. More likely the Flitz...

    SKS-D stock swap - legal?

    Refinishing wood stock Before you spend the money on another stock you might try refinishing and recontouring the stock. I carefully used a dremel to recontour the grip and sanded the whole thing. Then put linseed oil finish on it.

    Nightmare of a rimfire decision: CZ452 or Marlin 39M?

    I have several CZ's and they are great guns, but the lever action .22's are fun. The price on the CZ isn't great. Get the lever action Marlin, and start saving for a 452. My local dealer has a used Lux for $179. They are out there. The Specials are usually $199 or so new.

    SAIGA - best bang for the buck?

    Now that you can supposedly get high-caps for the SAIGA sporter rifles, they would seem to be one of the best buys out there. I am planning on getting one of the 7.62x39 models soon. CDNN has them pretty cheap, not as cheap as they were last year, but... I noticed on the EAA website that...

    New Baikal .22

    It should be very competitive with the 10/22's. Considering they go on sale for $139 here once in a while. I would guess the Baikal will be $199, but you will get gouged early on by dealers. I'd buy one for $150 or so.

    <$200 .22lr with peep sights?

    Peep sights aren't that common on new guns, unless you are talking spendy Target rifles. Start scoping out the used racks at gun shops and pawn shops. I have found some great deals on used guns. Keep an eye out for the Mossbergs, not just the 44. I have a 144 and another that is a semi...

    SAIGA 20 or 30 Round Mags?

    Any idea if 20 or 30 round mags will be imported for the SAIGA?

    Thumbhole Stock for SKS

    With all the SKS's around why doesn't someone make a decent stock for them? I would buy a nice sporter thumbhole design. Laminate or wood or even a nice synthetic. I have one with a Monte Carlo stock that says Combat Exchange, but it is just OK. Kind of heavy.

    Norinco EM 332 bolt action info needed

    Still hoping someone has heard of this rifle. It is pretty distinctive with the mag holder in the stock. Nothing turns up on the net except some out of date sale on gunsamerica.

    Just got a Mossberg 44 today, need some info.

    Havlin sales now sells an adapter for a weaver base that screws on where the old scopemounts go. This will allow use of 1" tube scopes on these old guns. Grea quality mount. I ordered two of them.

    Norinco EM 332 bolt action info needed

    There is an unusual rifle at a local shop. Chinese sporter type rifle, has a holder for two mags built into the buttstock. Quality looks very good. The trigger guard appears to be aluminum, it is grey and kind of bead blasted. The rest of the gun is nicely blued. Stock isn't walnut, but...

    CZ's & Hi-Powers

    If you want a low buck Hi-Power check out the FEG PJK-9HP it is the actual clone. I had one. Decent gun. I think I still like the feel of my CZ better, but the Hi-Power fit very well too. Arcus also makes a Hi-Power clone the 94 that is suposed to be good, but the slide has more of a square...

    The Firing Line back Online...

    I just noticed that http://www.thefiringline.com is back online. How long has that been the case? I thought it was closed for good and visited there recently to search the archives only to find that it was back up and running. Now I'll have to waste twice as much time on the internet reading...

    CZ 527 need help

    I used the CZ rings too. They didn't come with the gun on the Varmint model though. I think they should! Anyway, the rings worked great and didn't require much to sight in. No shimming required or anything. Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

    Got my Arcus, first impressions.

    Strictly speaking the DA Arcus isn't a Hi-Power clone. They do make a SA Arcus too... It is on my list of "guns to watch for if I see one cheap enough.."
