      8mm Nambu brass conversion from 357 sig

      I made a video of the process of converting 357 sig brass into 8mm Nambu. This was my first video and I'm not a professional Youtuber. Hope it can help some of you. Note: Approximately about 80% of the brass will work with your pistol and can be reloaded several times after the...

      PPK - What % ?

      This item was added to my collection last year. I purchased it from an auctioneer in Savage Maryland. I ran across several firearms in the auction and the reason I was there was for the silver coins. My first impression was that it was sanded and refinished. I wasn’t eager to bid on...

      M1 Addict - I Ordered Again

      My name is ....x and I am an M1 Garand addict. There is no cure for me and I have learned to accept the consequences. My wife will leave me this year because of my addiction. Her loss! If you just grinned, you’re an addict too. It has been exactly one year, one month and 8 days since my...

      New pickups PPK, HSBC & Mauser M-1934

      Walked in looking to bid for a FN49 (30-06) and walked out with 3 additional pieces. The turn out was low for firearms since the action was about antique furniture. It was an early Christmas.

      1903 A4 with prefix Z

      Another addition to the MD community. A second sniper in my collection. ME & TE are zeros with a beautiful stock. The Z prefix make it the rarer of the sniper series. I could be overstating the piece but correct me if I'm wrong. I'm just a bit excited of my new find.

      A beauty Colt 1908 .380 ACP

      A pristine 1935 pistol. I got this baby at Reddding's auction last sunday. It did not go cheap but I'm glad it found a home in Maryland. I took it out today and it shoots great. I found my carry piece once I get my conceal license.

      Lake City Ordnance 30-06 ammo

      Just for curiosity purposes. I just received these two boxes of ammo as a gift from a friend in Rockville. Are they worth anything or collectible? I don't want to shoot something that is collectable. Your insights will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

      1917 EddyStone revival

      I brought a Model 1917 30-06 EddyStone rifle from a gunshop in Rockville on Saturday. The rifle was in very bad shape and It was listed as parts because 40% of the rifle was missing. You could not even see through the bore. It was nasty. Two weeks before, I was at the same gunshop when a...

      History "The World Wars"

      I was hooked on the three nights series and got the wife hooked on the second night. An excellent program, full of educational material and lots of C&Rs we love to have.
