I had picked up a universal m1 for all around plinking and i noticed the slide looks different than photos of others i have seen. It doesnt have that flat spot on the top where the slide curls over the receiver like most usgi slides. Is this some kind of repro? I cant see any markings but i...

Can i put a usgi bolt assembly in a universal m1 carbine? I have an early model with single spring. It has a usgi trigger housing and a usgi op rod but i think thats it. Will the usgi bolt fit and work with the universal receiver and barrel?

A winchester 1300 i got came with a 1400 barrel on it. The barrel has gas ports in it. Is it okay to shoot since the ports are covered by the mag tube or will stuff still expel out from under the tube? Or can i fill them with jb weld or somethin? Any help on this would be appreciated. Dont...

Sythetic not wood. Looking for something really low profile like the forends on the old ithica 37's. its for a winchester pump, there was an oem one made by winchester for the defender i think, but cant find it online anywhere. I have seen the choate brand but want even thinner. This is the...

My father recently gave me back my first shotgun i ever owned, i had forgotten all about it. Its a 12ga winchester 1400 ranger (pump), from early 90's i think. I would like to put a synth. Pistol grip and new pump handle on it and shorter barrel. If i browse the net and see listings for...

Iver johnson (erma werke) made in germany in 22lr. I refinished the stock in a red mahogany and fitted a GI ventilated hand guard (which was a pain) Also has a GI butt plate. Also has 2 brand new 15 rd clips unused. What could i get out of this? I heard the new 22 carbine clones that came...

I have seen them at gunshows and shops etc. Any ones I should avoid or just any helpful info on what to look for? I have heard to look for a gi model, and that the universals are good if they are older ones (without dual recoil springs), stay away from iver and plainfield, but the imports are...

Anyone know any dealers (honest ones) that have m-1 carbines. Theres gotta be some, I saw quite a few at the last gunshow (I just wasnt wanting one at the time).

Everytime I get a gun i get delayed, usually for a day by the feds (state always goes through). I dont even want to go to the gunshows anymore because I know it will happen. Any here have experience with an appeal. I called the fbi to ask and they said once you send it in (with finger...

I was thinking of putting one in but seem to recall somewhere on the net a guy saying that it is supposed to flex a bit with this particular gun. Any ideas?

Specifically I am looking for an m-1 carbine. Know any links or anybody?

well, are they? :confused:

Universal m-1 carbine. Saw a used one in good condition for $369. Is this too much? They seemed firm on the price. Also I heard that the later produced ones (with dual recoil springs?) werent made as well. The guy obviously isnt going to take it apart and he said he didnt know if it was an...

WTH? I just went to my second gunshow of my life and everything was more expensive than at the gunshops! I had always heard from older folks about the great deals you can find. Even when browsing the forums here you see quite a few comments for guns that retail for say $300 and someone will say...

What is that?, the lever action shotgun that arnold gets from the bar. Are they rare? Do you ever see them at shows or anything?

Went to a local gunshop/range to rent one of these and try it out. When I went to shoot the first round I thought the thing was broken, the trigger pull was very odd in that you have to pull it back so far. It was also very uncomfortable to shoot, but that was expected. The first gun they...

I am interested in getting a p-32. What does it mean when it says it is a "locked breach pistol" ?

Interested in getting one of these. From what I have read, some have good luck with the .32 and some haven't, but mostly good. Have there really been improvements in the recently manufactured ones? I also read in combat handguns that the .380 had a couple of failures compared to the .32. They...

Looking for the flash suppressor? that screws on the end of the rifle barrel. Anyone know where I can find it? Or, will one from an ar-15 screw onto it?

That is, the internal parts when you break it down? Are there parts that shouldnt be oiled?
