      s&w chief special model 36 help

      Some SA/DA pistols do this if trigger spring gets weak, damaged, or anything associated with trigger going Quickly forward -in a positive manner. Truth is , not everyone means the same thing when they say " I cleaned it". Like battery terminals it's the contact surfaces you don't see are the...

      Martini Henry Mrk IV: a disappointment

      Longer Lever on Nepal (bottom) Rifle Well, I must say , you really do get a lot of pleasure from your attachment to these rifles. I'm 76 and it is good to see; reminds me of earlier days. Just wondering why the longer lever on the Nepal rifle. Action , looking from the picture, looks like it...

      Thank God for the Electoral College

      Thanks. I'll check out what you suggest soon as I can get to a computer (this Windows 7 cell is the pits to do much with). To be honest, I was thinking more of Trump's win - OUR WIN Actually, and must admit I am mostly familiar with Assange. Wednesday morning greatly strengthed my faith in...

      Thank God for the Electoral College

      True Heroes, Man of Great Courage, Course of Nation for Many Decades First, at one time I thought EC was outdated, considering modern means to quickly gather data/votes. But cities are home to many who vote for party playing cards - freebies, racist, sexist, etc to garner certain groups...

      7.5 fk BRNO

      Believe Tokarev 7.62x25 COL is 34mm. Don't see 1 more mm , 3%longer, would make grip unwieldy Might be wider than a Tokarev grip should actual guns be high capacity. Tokarev grip fits my hand really well, but it is single stack. Like you, I sure would enjoy shooting one. If real reliable...

      What goes around.......

      Didn't most decorated soldier , US, of WWII Audie Murphy use the 110FMJ/1900fps carbine for most of his kills. Seems 1911 also used by him. But then he was an exceptional shot, usually making head shots, I read. I think we are headed for a little bigger diameter round, maybe 6 to 6.5 mm.

      Alan Gura at American Consitution Society

      + 1. Trump is the only choice not a career Establishment politician. Trump considers "politically correct" wording to be disingenuous and manipulatively deceptive. So do I. He seems a little rude and blunt about pointing out the maybe hard to accept, but only effective solution, TRUTH. I...

      Case of 7.62x39. What's it worth

      Sorry Man, Think I need to get my glasses changed! Non of the cases I have bought included strippers. Be sure to include that in pricing. You shouldn't have any problem moving those. Pat

      Case of 7.62x39. What's it worth

      AND . Those stripper clips are worth money, so you may come out pretty good. Why does the crate say CORROSIVE? I've bought a lot of LVE (Low Voltage Electric) -.sold under various names, but never saw any marked corrosive. There's so much of that on market that rather than sell outright...

      174 grain surplus .303

      50¢ a round ! Plus shipping. That stuff is garbage from Pakistan. You can buy PPU , reloadable and reliable for $15-$16 / 20 rds. Even the Mk VII I bought decades ago was click......bang crap, and it is Brit made. Click....bang ammo gets more expensive with every one that does not fire...

      Colion Noir - "Philando Castile - Media Fans Flames Of Racism"

      This man's intelligence, grasp of our situation, and ability to express it so well - face to face - with the lying deceptive left is AMAZING. All of my black friends over the years have had and liked guns just as I have. Pretty much hunters like me. Got a big kick seeing the young black...

      OK ? To replace 6" pistol barrel With 9" or 12" ?

      [FONT="Arial Black"][/FONT Keeping it a pistol. No other changes. Just want to lose less velocity, and want more sight radius on iron sights. Does ATF not approve? Thanks.

      Most accurate reputation milsurp rifle?

      Several people mentioned M39, M27, other Finn versions of Russian Moisin Nagant mdl 91, 91/30. Also, the Soviets in WWII had a very very good sniper corp (many women) using the M-N in 7.62x54. One of the FINN versions won in the Olympics - only eventual mil-surp rifle to ever do so. So it...

      Hi-Point Semi

      Understand there is a 20rd mag being made for the 9mm pistol. I'm leaning toward the 9 because of CHEAP ammo - and quick 2nd shot recovery time - but I loved my .45 1911 (was stolen) and am starting to remember great shooting. I even special ordered higher velocity 185 (or was it 165 ?) Norma...

      NFA Picture Thread

      Won't some barrel damage result from repeated dumps? Thinking of the satellite barrels for the M2 because of burning out the lesser barrels.
