    Saiga-20 gas tube removal

    I feel kinda stupid asking but I just cant figure it out, and the manual doesnt help much at all. I'm familiar with the AK action because I have a VEPR K but this Saiga is different. There is no lever, and the gas tube almost looks like its permanently fixed. If somebody could help me in...

    Why dont more people use 50BMG for hunting?(yes, I'm serious)

    I look at the price of ammo for 50BMG and the price of ammo for a BIG bore cartridge like 470nitro express there is a big difference, 470NE-$200 for 20rounds 50BMG yugo surplus- $120 for 100 rounds Pull those FMJ's and put in a softpoint seems to me like you'd have a good DANGEROUS game...

    I know we pretty much covered shooting under water, but I have never seen a thread about shooting in space, What would happen, would the bullet just orbit the earth until it hit something, or would the gun even go off. I wonder how straight a path it would retain and I bet velocity would be...
