What's a good online vendor for KAC gear? I'm looking to purchase a carbine length M4 rail and sights.

I rolled my eyes when my friend called to tell me his dad got a massive collection of milsurp rifles in his shop....boy he wasnt lying! I've never seen so many Enfields, carcanos, Mausers, mosin nagant 91's etc for sale in one place. I felt like a kid in a candy store! It was really hard for me...

Did some wheeling and dealing for a colt 1917. It pairs great with my S&W victory model. Boy do they make a handsom pair!

Hello all, I picked up a raw Ruger birdshead grip frame for my single six. I've never done any type of gunsmithing and I'm wondering how difficult this would be if I choose to do the work myself. From my research it's mostly sanding and fitting? Is this something I could do on my own or is it...

What can you tell me about the "whip it" shotgun? I always took it as a Bonnie and Clyde Auto-5 cut down but when I google it i'm reminded of all the interesting gangster modified guns. Is it any shotgun that is cut down so you can "whip it" out from under a coat? I ask because I plan on filling...

I would like to hear what you guys own in the way of unique, rare or less common Mosin Nagants. For me some are. M/N 91/30 stamped Izhevsk 1937, missing top hand guard but has 91 bands, not import marked. Best I can come up with is its either a Spanish Civil War gun or some sort of Finnish...

Im not a complete noob to mosin nagants but how do you tell if a rifle is a ex dragoon? Are m/n's made before 1929 considered dragoons? I was at a antique store and found a Izhevsk dated 1928 with a 3 digit serial number just north of $380. I know prices have gone up but $380 seems high And I'm...

I purchased a Remington 700 sps in .223 and wanted some advice on how to set it up. This rifle will mostly be used for range use but will find its way into vermint hunting. I have a .22 and shotgun that are my primary vermint guns. I don't mind spending money on this rifle but I really don't...

As the title says, is the Hesse RPK as bad as all the reviews I read online say? I should have did the research before buying but hindsight is 20/20. If I run into any problems will it be hard to gunsmith this firearm? When I looked it over it appeared to be In good shape but I was not aware of...

I picked up a 20rd AR mag today with M16/M16A1 CAL 5.556mm universal inds. div. Simmonds prec. prod. inc. west haven, conn. u.s.a. Stamped on the floor plate for 15 bucks. can anyone tell me more about this brand? Did I do well on price? While we are at it I got 2 20rds mags marked Adventure...

Recently bought a choke for my mossberg 835 and it says not to use steel shot. This might be a dumb question but would all boxes of shells state "steel" on it? A couple of boxes I have say unplated, would this be ok to shoot through this choke? Also, what could be the potential damage to the...

How do you find a spot to hunt when you don't know the area? What times do you hunt? How do you hunt? Long story short. A friend and I don't come from hunting backgrounds and want to spend some time in the woods learning new skills. Best we can come up with is state game lands/forests. Ive...

For the past year or so I thought the squeeze cocking mechanism on the h&k p7 actually cocked and racked the slide :eek:. Imagine to my surprise that I dont have a clue about a pistol on my list :p. Maybe Im going nuts but I though the Chinese made a pistol that you "squeezed" to rack the slide?

Finally got my Eotech mounted to my BCM 16inch carbine length upper w/ troy back ups.....how do I get this crap set up? Do I set my RDS and irons at same range? Im used to the AK platform, so this is all foreign to me :(.

Im wondering how easy is it to build a Glock? As easy as a AR? My plan for awhile now is to build a LWD longslide and im just wanting to know how difficult it is. I remember a thread last year some time and a gentleman said if he could go back he wouldnt have done his longslide 10mm. Is this the...

Could you fine gentleman in C&R land please school me on the Hakim? Ive been wanting one for a long time now and had a chance to pick one up from my local fun shop for what I thought was a decent price ($600). It looks in excellent shape and has a mirror bright bore. My good friend has one so im...

Just wondering why we don't see modern straight pull rifles on the market? I have a good many milsurp rifles but none of this design nor have shot any. That said, it seems like it could be superior over the more conventional actions. I would love to get a straight pull rifle in a more popular...

What does it mean when people say you need to hand fit parts for the 1911? is it as simple as hand filing the metal or is it with more complicated tools? I don't know anything about building 1911's and was wondering what kind of hand fitting is required.

So normally, I am not a fanboy, but BCM makes really great products! My first AR was built from parts. Almost all the parts were purchased from BCM's website. Not only was the shipping prompt but all the parts have worked flawlessly. Now, im no LEO or military personnel but I might just send...
