So I have been looking at getting a new semi auto rifle. Among the ones I was looking at the Romanian PSL came up. I have always loved the Dragunov rifles and the PSL clones are affordable. Then I got to thinking about that pesky x54R. Now I own a Mosin but the 54R does nothing for me, I just...

So a couple years ago I bought a Norinco SKS. My brothers were in a dither about them at the time. My older brother bought a 1950-something Russian, my oldest bro bought a new Yugo, so when I got the chance at a Norinco carbine for just over $100 I took it. It has been sitting in the back of my...

Way back when High Standard made incredible pump action shotguns. My K120 18-7 riot gun is the best pump I've ever had. The action works like ball bearings on glass, its uber reliable and it will clover leaf cheapo slugs @ 50 yds with irons and a Cylinder bore. Anyways, my bro-in-law liked...

Looking for info on a drilling. The full story can be found here: http://forums.accuratereloading.com/eve/forums?a=tpc&s=518103&f=335105333&m=1091072811&r=1791072811#1791072811

So I just picked up one of these: It's the MR221, which is the .30-06 model. Now I was thinking of reaming it out to the AI version for a little more performance but then I thought, why not the .300 H&H? Peak pressures for the .30-06 are 50,000, the H&H is 54,000. Is that enough to stop me...

Just picked up my new brush gun: a Remington/Baikal SxS .30-06 and I'm wondering if anyone else here loads for one and what they have had success with. I generally use a 165gr Sierra Game King SBT in my standard hunting load.

I've been thinking of having a cape gun built. All the older ones I'm looking at are in wierd Euro calibers. Not that there's anything wrong with them but components and dies are hard to find. So I'm thinking of having one made. I'd work off of either a 20 or 12ga gun, right now I'm looking at...

So I'm thinking of selling my single shot to fund something that will be more practical for me. I love it but I'm a shooter, not a horder and I want something that will make it to the range with me more often (I really want a .470 Capstick). Here's a pic: Here's what I know about it. It's a...

I'm wanting to pick up a new rimfire varmint setup. Either .22WMR or .17HMR. Right now my varmint/squirrel rifle is a Weatherby XXII semi auto .22LR. It is the most accurate LR I've owned- or shot, outside of custom br/comp rifles- and outshoots my heavy barrelled bolt guns. The only rifle I...

So I've always wanted a fine German stalking rifle, a really nice single shot break action. A Blaser or Kreighoff being way out of my price range and the fact that I can't stand the Encore led me to the rifle I bought. Seller says there is no maker's mark. It's in 9.3x72R, he believes it is pre...

So I just got my 'new' Husqvarna today, it finally came in. How do I go about finding out when it was made and exactly what model it is? It's a 9.3x57 with the long bbl. It's a small ring action with the thumb cut receiver and stripper clip notch. Stock has no cheek piece. Serial number is 5578...

Just before hunting season this year I did some trading and came up with a Remmie 700 BDL in .308. I wanted a new hunting rifle but as much as I try I just can't get into the BDL. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful rifle and I like it, it just doesn't turn me on if you know what I mean. So I'm...

This recently came into the shop, it's an Inland M1 Carbine with an M84 sniper scope on it. The mount looks to be original and not new production, it attaches in place of the rear sight and again to the bbl. The mount is marked 8247-39m1. The thing is in pristine condition, almost like it was...

So I watched Ghost and the Darkness the other night and it's got me yearning for a true bigbore traditional safari rifle. I have a P17 converted to .375 H&H but now I feel the need for something really outrageous. My base action will be a Mauser 98. Before all you puritans start howling, I have...

So I picked one up at the Lakeland show this last weekend. It's very nice and the man said it was unfired, soon to be remedied. I have been wanting a .45-70 rifle for a while now and I had always liked the Gibbs .45-70 rifles I had seen in magazines. I figured this will be as close as I get for...

So I think it's time for my mom to have a home defense carbine. There have been two instances of people trying to get into her house recently, the most recent was the night before last. Both through the front door around 3 AM. She does have a dog but he is pretty much useless, scared of his own...

So I looked in my safe the other day and noticed I really don't have a tactical style battle rifle. Sure I have the obligatory AK and SKS but I need something a little more you know? I like the Ak, but I don't love it. I love the SKS but the stock doesn't fit me too well and I want more accuracy...

Does anyone still make the adjustable Unertl style scope rings for 3/4" scopes? I've been looking like a mad man and can't find them anywhere. I know there is a company that makes repro Winchester scopes and such and their bases are made to fit Unertl scope blocks but I can't remember who or...

So I work in a little gunshop and snagged this today. It's in .30-06 and was done quite a while ago by the looks of it. Nice job, whoever did it, very clean and well finished. It has a nice European styled stock with the narrow forend, it has nice checkering on it too. I'm at a loss as to what...

So I just realized my new hunting rifle (Puma 92 in .454) doesn't have a front sling swivel. To make things worse my micrometer has walked off and I can't find it. Anyone have a rifle in .454, .45C, .45-70, etc. that could measure the OD of the mag tube so I can figure out which of the umpteen...
