Hello. I was wondering if someone had any suggestions or experiences with how to fix a broken barrel band retaining clip on a Carbine? I have a USGI Inland. I gave it a good cleaning after a trip to the range, and while trying to slip the barrel band back over the clip in the stock...

OK, this is more than embarrassing, but I'll ask the question because I'd rather be safe than sorry. I haven't shot my Russian SKS in quite awhile. I took it apart to clean it tonight, but couldn't remember which way the recoil spring goes back in. :confused: Does the curly end go into the...

Hey All, I finally got to shoot my new Taurus Ultralight this weekend. She's a keeper! :) I put a 150 rounds of FMJ through her, along with 20 rounds of Hydra-Shoks. No problems whatsoever. I'm glad to report that there was NOT one light strike at all. I shot S&B and UMC ammo, and the little...

Hi ya'll. I know this is kind of "after the fact", but I bought a Taurus Model 85 Ultralight on Saturday. I almost bought the Total Titanium model next to it because it had "+P" on the barrel shroud. The Ultralight does not. :( I checked the Taurus web site, and it says that it's OK to shoot...

Hi all, I just refinished the wood on my MAK-90. I couldn't stand looking at the old ugly yellow varnish that was on it any longer. I used Red Mahogany, and it turned out dark and beautiful like an M-1 Carbine stock. I bought some Min-Wax spar urethane outdoor lacquer for it, but I'm having...

Need some help guys. I bought my Garand a month ago, and am still having several stoppages while shooting it. I've switched op rods, bullet guides, and followers with a friends rifle, but the problem still persist. I replaced the op rod spring with a new one, but that didn't help either...

Hello all, I bought a Garand at the gun show in Dallas today. I also picked up 200 rounds of Lake City (stamped '62). I saw a lot of Yugoslav .30-'06 for sale. It was stamped '57, and was supposedly made for the Venezuelan army. Do any of you know if this ammo is corrosive? I figured since...

Hi guys and gals. I am considering buying one of the holographic sights for my AR-15. I've looked at the Bushnell Holosight, Tasco Optima 2000, C-More Systems, and Trijicon Reflex sights. Do any of you own any one of these, and what are your opinions on them, or the others? Thanks for all...

Hi all, Does anyone know a source where I can find out when my Bulgarian Makarov was manufactured? I've been to Makarov.com, but they haven't found out anything either. Since i'm new to TFL, I apologize if this has been asked before. *Starsfan*
