Hey guys, I put a pistol scope onto my Hex Top that I got a couple of weeks ago. I didn't want to drill and tap the reciever, but felt like the rifle needed a scope. This is a 2x Simmons Gold Medal that I had lying around. Looks great on there, and really shoulders quick. Best of all, it can...

I got a 15" 308 pistol barrel for my Encore the other day. I'm a bit puzzled about some of the handloads that I'm shooting. The pistol seems to shoot "jacketed" bullets of almost any weight or velocity fairly well. However, I would like to use cast lead for plinking. It seems that when I...

I put a 98 Mauser on hold at a local gun shop today (didn't have enough cash in my pocket to get it right away, so I'll pick it up in a couple of days). The rifle has already been bastardized, but it's still an 8mm though the bore looks a little worn, not terrible, but not great. I'm thinking...

I need a firing pin for my TC Ecore. I can't seem to find the part anywhere on the net. Seems like a simple fix, but does this have to be sent to the factory? I mean there's only one little screw and the thing comes out!

Got it today! What a fantastic old rifle! It's stamped 1933. Put about 20 rounds through it and it seems to be spot on. The bore looks great, the finish looks great. Mananged to bust a beer can full of water at 100 yards - took me a shot or two to get the right sight picture. Then I...

I've decided to order a model 91/30 Mosin Nagant. I can't make up my mind whether to get a "round top" or a "hex top". There's not much difference in price, only $10.00. Is there any reason to pick one over the other? I've got a M44 and enjoy it quite a bit, but now I want a rifle to go with it.

My Dad bought a box full of .324's (8mm) 160 grain Lyman cast bullets. There are approx 650 - 700. What would someone be willing to pay for them, unlubed, at a bargain price?

I dug around and found some surplus stripper clips for my M44. I knew better than to buy the Chinese copies. However, they seem somewhat "stiff" to me, making it hard to push the ammo into the magazine. I have been loading the M44 "manually" since I got it a week or so ago. Do the clips need...

Does any manufacturer make accessories like a bipod or flashlight mount that will fit into the bayonet mount on a M44? That would be a good place to put something, since the bayonet is usless as far as I'm concerned. If not, wouldn't that be a great idea for all of us M44 owners! A nice...

I'm thinking about mounting a "scout" scope to my M44. That way I won't have to modify the rifle, I like it the way it is. Have any of you used one of the "picatinny" type mounts onto the rear sight mount? Does it work well? Also, I was browsing Ebay and noticed that I could get a "NC Star"...

What are your opinions on Mosin Nagant rifles? I acquired my first carbine, and like it so much that I'm thinking of getting a rifle too. What I would like are opinions about whether to get a model 28 or a model 91/30, or does it make any difference.

Based on the survey posted a week or so ago, I decided to get me a Mosin Nagant M44. Wow, it's so ugly that it's beautiful! I couldn't be happier! I haven't shot it for a group yet, but I wore out a beer can at 30 or so yards! This should be lots of fun! When I decided to order mine, I...
