    Legalities of a "built in" suppressor? (New York)

    I was looking around the internet and came across the GSG 5, a clone of the H&K MP5, but in .22lr. There is an SD variant, which has some other variances to the rifle, but has a "fake" suppressor. I checked this out on Wikipedia. It says that the BATFE ruled that the "previously approves...

    List of "common" .22lr bulk packs.

    I was planning a project both for myself and Youtube. I was going to take all common bulk packs and maybe a few of the more common match ammo and basically do the ultimate ammo test for a particular gun. Besides the same old Remington, Winchester and federal, what are other common ammo that...

    9mm Carbine vs .45acp Carbine?

    I was looking around youtube and found out about hi-points extremely affordable carbines. I haven't found one complaint on them and I've looked for a LOT of feedback. People say they dont look too good, but I kinda like the way they look. Anyway, I plan on getting one. I've always wanted a...

    .577 Tyrannosaur vs an actual Tyrannosaurus Rex!?

    Sorry, this was just for poops and giggles. I was watching JonTron's review of jurassic park and this suddenly popped into my head. There's no dought that it would take more than one shot unless you were in the perfect setup, but how do you think it would do? :D Wikipedia ballistics... Take...

    How many malfunctions is "reliable"? .22lr Bulk Packs

    When I first got my Marlin 795, I bought Winchester bulk. I was getting a double feed around every magazine. It was very frustrating. Later, I tried Federal Bulk. I shot around 100 rounds and had a double feed. Then about 80 after the next. Would the Federal bulk be considered "reliable"...

    Hi-Point Pistols: Good for the money?

    Well here's my dilemma. Well, I shouldn't say "mine" per se. It's actually my Grandfather's dilemma. Anyway, the local police have gun buy-backs once in a while. About once a month, usually. He just so happens to have a gun that is technically illegal from many years ago and we recently came...

    Nassau County, Long Island NY Gun Buy-back?

    Does anyone know when the next buy-back will be for Nassau County NY, or Suffolk? I'm looking to trade in a couple of old guns, but I can't seem to find any information about the next event. I know they host these events frequently, but by the time I hear anything about them, they are already...

    Mosin Nagant 91/30: Is this a good deal?

    I'm going to buy a mosin next week at a local place. I had bad luck with another shop and as soon as I walked in and seen the workers and owner, I knew I'd never set foot in there again. Anyway, that's a different story. I called up another place looking for a 91/30. They said for $120, they...

    Ways a weapon lover can make some money?

    I was wondering what I could do to make some money? I was thinking of forging knives, swords, etc. It seemed interesting, but what else could I do? The truth is, I'm only 15 and I'm not exactly ready for an actual job yet. I seen some forging and it seems like a cool thing to get into just to...

    Aguila Super Colibri wont feed? Marlin 795

    I bought these rounds a few days ago and went to shoot them today. I am well aware that these cannot cycle the action, in which case you must work the action yourself. I'm having real problems. It isn't huge, I'm not upset about it. But I didn't expect something like THIS to happen. When I go to...

    DPMS Oracle 5.56?

    Alright, well I guess I've always wanted an AR-15, but never wanted to spend too much money. I seen this in the Cheaper Than Dirt catalog and got curious. I checked a few forums and had mixed results. Some people say that they are great, but that they wont hold up forever. Or that they will last...
