Re: Mosin gunsmith needed

Most gunsmiths won't touch a mosin because of the difficulty in removing the barrel and machine work involved in getting a replacement barrel to index properly along with their general view of a mosin being a "cheap junk rifle" The cost wasn't worth it although mosin prices have really go...

Re: The Mosin You Wish You Still Had

Well, I'd say the Polish Mosin I sold to the LGS some years ago......but Rongo doesn't mind, he bought it. :lol: And I know it has a good home.

Re: Keine genaue Bestimmung meiner Mosin Nagant

Willkommen im Mosin Nagant-Forum, wickmac! Ihr PU-Gewehr ist definitiv nicht ganz original, aber das bedeutet nicht, dass es kein guter Schütze sein wird. Bei den Markierungen im zweiten Bild handelt es sich um verschiedene deutsche Beschuss-Hausmarken, ich erkenne die Ulmer Beschuss-Hausmarke sowie...

Re: AR Backup Sights

I have an MBUS and a CT red/green dot on the house rifle. Yes, rifle. I converted that one to a rifle with a 16" barrel. It shoots fine either way. It's SWMBO's HD gun, as she didn't like any of the handguns. I told her to not bother turning the red dot on, just center the round field in the CT...

Re: 303 British SP in 7.62 x54r case

You can't import .310" and .311" bullets (projectiles, not loaded ammo) into your country? I'd try that first before buying loaded ammo and taking it down for the bullets. The Sierra .311 is popular for hunting.

Re: New gun laws.

One those of you who own AR pistols with braces on them might want to pay attention to is ATF Final Rule 2021-08F: (Not just AR's, BTW, all braced pistols) 120 days after it is entered into the Federal Register, (which should be Monday Jan. 16, 2023) you will have to have either 1.)

Re: Back from the ER.....

If you have an eye exam coming up soon, have the Dr. check for retinopathy. Diabetes can cause retinopathy, which is an increase in the number and size of blood vessels in and behind the retina. Often, an OD or opthalmologist will refer a pt. to a Dr. for the run of tests for diabetes. Another way d...

Re: USAF M16 604 Build Complete.

It looks good, Mike!

Even weighing a pound more, Id have still preferred an A2 over my A1, I'd have never used the fun switch on one anyway.

When I get further on my A1 build I'll post my progress with pics.

This will have to do for now:
