Paging all Mauser experts: I had a fling with 8mm Mausers for a long time. I bought a Czech M98 trigger guard with the wider winter trigger loop to swap with my K98s when I would take them as my back up hunting rifle. I just found it. As a happy coincidence, I'm considering purchasing a...

I love a new DIY rifle project. So I picked up a Cav-Arms lower and have a lower kit and how-to DVD on the way from Brnnnnlls. That part will take care of itself sooner or later. It's my first build, I"m not going to rush it. But I saw this on the CA lower instruction sheet: takes...

So when I my Tok went down at the range a couple weeks ago, I got out my XDM .40 to do some practicing as the XDM is now going with me as my blackpowder sidearm. Usually, it's the Tok, but I"ve recently begun playing around with these modern concepts like "safeties" and "trigger block" and...

Or, if you're like me and better at rooting than shooting: http://www.biathlonworld.com/en/ hup hup, buttercup!

Yes, I wear ear-protection, but... I was curious if the AK slant-style was louder than a full, bulbous, muzzle brake on an AK. Obviously, they are both "loud as a rifle shot," but I mean loud relative to the shooter. I've only had one muzzle brake in my life and it was on an 8mm Hakim. It...

So my Romanian Tokarev and I took a trip to the range yesterday. It's a fairly common occurrence since it's my cheapest pistol to run. I loaded up some Polish 1985 surplus from a batch I have been using... He shoots, he scores (poorly, as per usual unfortunately... ). The cartridge split...

I have replaced the rear with a Williams Peep sight. The front sight is the stock Tru-Glo bead that came with the rifle. It works okay, but the front is a little low and I have to push the Williams all the way to the front of the ramp to be on target. So, I'm requesting unvarnished advice...

I have some biathlon ammo from Eley. 22lr. It has "lube" on it. The lube is heavy waxy stuff. last year, toward the end of biathlon season, I started having troubles with extraction. I cleaned the heck out of my bore/chamber, but the problem persisted. I took the rifle to my gunsmith who...

Are the grip sizes different between these two models? I was on a business trip and stopped into a local shop to paw the display items and I loved the feel of the XDM .40 with a 3.8" barrel. I recently got my tiny racoon-sized hands on a friend's 4.5" (grip 1, he says) and it felt different...

The forest service is still comments on building a range near the closed allenspark dump shooting areal. If you're from the front range area of Colorado near Boulder/Longmong/Louisville/Lyons, you might want to weigh in on this with the forest service. FS email below...

I had this conversation with my gunsmith the other day about using cold weather oil so that the workings of my rifle didn't freeze up while hunting in the cold. He named a few items that he thought worked well, including, if-I-remember-correctly, a wax? I can't remember which recommendations he...
