Hi all, I just picked up a Russian SKS. All original parts as far as I can tell. My only gripe is that the hand guard/gas tube has some play. Not forward/backward, but side to side rather. I wonder if this presents a problem and if this is remedied with a replacement tube. I'm not interested in...

Hey all, Just bought a Ruger Mark III for the wife. It's the only thing she'll ever shoot.Though I prefer the stock grips, I've been wondering what options I have to make it one of a kind (or at least a little more uncommon). I'd like to slap on some simulated ivory grips, but it appears that...

Yes. I finally got it. My Security Six is now a Clark Custom Combat. Chastise me if you will for altering a hard to find classic, but I'm not upset with the results at all. (Though I would think a gp-100's frame weight would counteract that bull barrel just a tad better) When I called them up...

I'm dumbfounded. I ordered a ghost ring kit for my mossberg mariner. The kit suggests installation by a gunsmith so, without delay, I dropped it off at our town's only smith. I called them up to check the status of my gun and am now being told they can't install the front sight without damaging...

Need some fresh air on the subject. For some crazy reason I suddenly want to start shooting slugs out my 18.5 inch mossberg 500. Question is: what exactly is the ideal barrel length for foster slugs? Slugs don't spin ( I think), so technically wouldn't a longer barrel length simply just give...

I'm surprised to find such little support for this finish by mossberg. No refinishing service is offered by them outside of bluing and rephosphate. And why are no extra barrels offered in this finish? Obviously it's not the most camouflaged of looks for a shotgun, but I'd hate to think that my...

Hi all. I'm pretty anxious. I just sent off my security six to get converted to a Clark custom combat. (yes, I know S&Ws are the primary PPC base gun, and yes I know that I'm altering a hard-to-find out of production gun) I'm certain a lot of you have dealt with Clark in the past, and I've...

Target action jobs essentially involve polishing/smoothing the innards resulting in a smooth trigger pull, appropriate for competition shooting (and working with only fully seated federal primers), right? So what exactly goes into a service action job? What are the advantages and things to...

Random thought. In terms of police units, semiautos have largely replaced revolvers. I'll see an officer on TV (usually one in his/her prime) still carry a revolver on duty, but only because they were in service before semis took over, and it's a personal choice they're entitled to. Just...

Hi all. Going to a gunshow in attempts to sell off my H&R rifle. (saving up for a custom revolver job or a mini 14... dunno which) Configuration: 24" 223 bull barrel and synthetic furniture. Literally the Ultra Varmint configuration (skeleton stock), but with a nickel finish receiver. Also...

I have a Ruger Security six that I'm interested in altering through these guys. I'm looking to get a Clark 6" Match Grade bull barrel, underlug, and dovetail sight installed. Does anyone have any revolvers altered through this particular smith? There's no description as to whether the Clark...

Hi all. We'll I broke down and got a Unica 6. I'd say for a gun, it's comparable to owning a high maintenance european sportscar --hard to find parts, but unique and attractive enough to own IMO. Though I've read every other post saying "that's the ugliest gun I've seen" etc etc... Anyway I...

Okay so... I finally got my .223 barrel in through their accessory program. (My old snake tamer has now officially become my first rifle). To my dismay, after firing the first round, the crack-barrel locked up. After about 3 minutes of trying to open it, I finally gave it one good barbaric...

Howdy folks. Assembling my first rifle. As the title says I'm looking to install a bipod on my H&R survivor. It basically just has a hollow plastic forend. I've seen pictures of these rifles with them (not attached to a swivel stud it seems), but I've no idea how they have them installed...

Salutations. I was wondering what you more experienced shooters regard the .45 colt as in terms of rifle ammunition. I have a .45 colt/410 nef survivor http://www.hr1871.com/Firearms/ShotgunsAndRifles/survivor.aspx. I noticed that unlike the 223 rem./308 model it doesn't come with a scope...

Hello peoples. I recently obtained an H&R .410/.45 colt shotgun/rifle. The "survivor" as they call it. http://www.hr1871.com/Firearms/ShotgunsAndRifles/survivor.aspx I consider it a slight attempt to fiddle in rifles as my only experience in firearms is with shotguns (may I stress: light...

I own an HD mossberg 500 12 gauger. I recently fitted it with a knoxx specops folder. I've been wanting to take it for skeet just to give it some alternative purpose. I'm well aware that I'll need a longer barrel (much longer than the 18 incher that came with it). My question is: would I...
