As the title says let’s hear it for the mods. These folks do a tremendous job at keeping TFL clean and informative. Without their wisdom, knowledge and occasional parental like slap of the fingers we would not be members of the best firearms forum on the net. I belong to several other forums...

Does anyone have a link to a full size printable (preferably pdf) of NSN 6902-01-167-1398 AQT target. I have been searching the net for about an hour and keep coming up short. Zero targets are easy to find but not the test target. The only one I found is broken into 4 8.5x11 pages to tape...

I picked up a Remington Sportsman 76 in 30-06 that was not well maintained by the previous owner. This thing was covered in rust on the outside, copper fouled on the inside and at some point had a lubricant used that gummed up and made the action difficult to work. I tore the weapon completely...

My mother is looking to get a pocket SD weapon in .380 ACP . She loves the Ruger LCP but doesn't care for the fact that it has no physical safety. What quality weapon of similar design has at least a backstrap safety and has available trigger guard mounted crimson trace. As you can tell she is...

Hey all I'm back Stateside and ready to start some of my projects. I was lucky enough to be the recipient of a fine gift, a Traditions Frontier rifle kit to finish and assemble while I have some leave time. My question for you all is I have seen some beautiful barrels on flintlocks but I have...

I purchased a Remington 700 SPS-V in .308 Winchester at Dicks sporting goods for a good price under $500. I plan to install a Rifle Basics 8oz to 1.5 pound trigger group and replace the crap plastic stock with a Boyd Ross Featherweight. I plan to use the rifle only for Varmint/Target so I feel...
