    Springfield Armory Saint Opinions

    There is some info out there and on here on them but I was hoping for a current opinion of the Saint AR-15. I wasn't planning on buying one, in fact I've been saving to buy a Winchester 1873 in 44-40. However, a friend of mine who bought one a month ago that has all of 30 rounds through it was...

    Fun Shotgun

    I'm looking into acquiring a shotgun exclusively for shooting those fun looking rounds you see at gun shows, the Dragons Breath, Flashbang, Flechette, and whatnot. The ones that just look FUN to try. I've got an 870 Wingmaster Magnum but it's my primary hunting/trap gun. Don't want to dirty it...

    5.45x39 AK Options

    I'm looking for an AK-74 style rifle. Something I've been thinking of getting for a while but the one I was hoping to get (Arsenal SLR-104FR) is no longer produced. One will come up for sale every now and again but the prices seem way outta line. Any suggestions on perhaps other options? I...

    Sig P226 Legion Grip Screws

    Picked up a Sig P226 Legion SAO the other day and man is that thing slick! Can't wait to get some rounds through it! One thing I did notice however was the screws in the grip. On every online picture or YouTube video I've ever seen on this pistol the screws seem to be flush with the G10 grips...

    FS2000 Thoughts?

    So I was originally thinking I was gonna use my work bonus to get a DS Arms FAL (that thread is floating around here somewhere) but now have an opportunity to buy a slightly used FN FS2000 for only a little more than the FAL. Long story short a family member runs a pawn shop and came into one...

    DS Arms FAL

    Thinking of picking one of these up (again...). Anyone have any experience with one? I know that's a bit of a broad question but still... Also which one is closest to original Belgian design? I think it's a 21" barreled version but couldn't say for certain.

    Scorpion 922R Compliance

    Was hoping someone can help me out here. I'm finally gonna take the SBR leap and decided to use a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1 in FDE as my base. I love the looks and it's a very modular firearm. But I'm not sure I understand the particulars of converting it to an SBR. CZ sells regular carbine stocks...

    Judge vs Governor

    I'm sure it's been asked before 1000 times before but still curious, what is your opinion today in 2019? I want some fresh opinions. I'm thinking about picking up a .410 revolver because why not? It would be strictly a range toy and kind of a novelty thing. The from what I've read the Governor...

    Mitchels Mauser M48

    Does anyone here own a Mitchels M48? I know some of the milsurp purists hate them and I kinda understand why. But if I was looking for nothing more than a high quality shooter with no historical value would Mitchels be a good option?

    100 Yard Range Restrictions

    I no longer have access to a range over 100 yards but have several rifles that I've always sighted in at longer distances or have optics ranged in meters. For example I have a couple M1 Garands fresh from the CMP that I was planning on getting sighted in tomorrow but in the past have always...

    Titanium Gold Desert Eagle Impressions

    Does anyone here own one? I'm thinking of trading my brushed chrome Desert Eagle and accessories for a Titanium Gold one in .50AE The short version is my DE is chambered in .44 but I have a .50 barrel and magazines for it so changing the caliber is real easy. But I never shoot the .44 anymore...

    Gun Pictures

    Does anyone have any advice on how to take quality pictures of firearms? TFB has a pretty good video out there but want to hear what you guys think. For example I've been trying a piece of dowel rod in the trigger guard to get a rifle to stand up (ish...). Making a comprehensive list of all my...

    New Rifle-No Sights

    After spending copious amounts of money and waiting almost 4 months on a distributor to get their act in gear I finally picked up my FN M16 Military Collector Edition AR from my LGS. Got it home, excitedly unboxed and unpacked it, double checked it clear, brought it to my shoulder and... Saw...

    M1917 Receiver Movement

    Took the Eddystone out today and noticed that the receiver moves within the stock a little. When I say a little I mean about a millimeter, MAYBE slightly more. It was so slight that I didn't even notice it at first. But now that I know about it it's very noticable. You can hear it move. We were...

    DS Arms SA58

    Anyone own one of these? Someone with firsthand experience. I really like the idea of owning an FAL (sort of). Aweseome rifle! But the reviews on the SA58 I've seen seem split. People seem to either love 'em or hate 'em. But the problem seems to be the reviews I've read had determined the...

    Ruger SP101 3" .327

    Saw one of these over the weekend and the thing looks gorgeous. I've been kicking around the idea of getting another revolver for while now and I really like what I saw but the .327 clambering seems a bit odd to me. Anyone have any experience with the SP101 in .327? The price seems reasonable...

    Bayonet Reference

    Can someone point in the direction of a good reference source for bayonets? I have quite the military surplus rifle collection at this point, I'd be considered a pattern collector I think, but now I'd like to get an example of a bayonet to go with each rifle. I got a decent start, Swede M96...

    ACOG Killflash

    I just got in the ACOG I'm gonna use in my M16A4 build. I am still waiting on the rifle but looking at the ACOG I don't see a way to remove the Killflash without taking it off the rifle. What am I missing? TA31RCO-A4CP

    Tacticool Lever Action

    Anyone have something that fits this definition? Saw a couple in Tulsa over the weekend that were entirely impractical and totally cool! Naturally I kinda want one now...

    MAS-36 Bolt Won't Close

    Picked up a beautiful looking MAS-36 yesterday in 7.5 French, bore looks pristine! However when I went to run a few of my dummy rounds through it this morning I noticed that the bolt will not close all the way with a round in the chamber. It's about 1/4 inch from being all the way home. I read...
