thank you all for the helpful advices :) when I cleaned it for the first time, I just leave the barreled receiver in my bathroom tub fills with hot water from the tap for 2, 3minutes, I'll se boiled water next time for better result. so from the image above, is it possible to tell if the dried grea...

Since neither one was invented when that law was written, maybe the law needs to be revised. They make a gun fire like a machine gun, I don't see the need for either for hunting or self defense. Machine guns have one purpose, for war, to kill as many enemy as possible before they kill you. I would ...

My first step cleaning is to put a kettle on the stove and heat the water to very hot, usually hotter than you could put your finger in. Usually a bit hotter than hot water from the tap. Then I pour a fair amount through the chamber. You can leave the barreled receiver in the stock if you're very c...

good.....there will be a string of terror stretching quite aways inland....keep your head down..... Yes there will, bad thing about big storms is they tend to have a deeper inland reach. My ex brother in law has family in Louisiana and I've got friends in Louisiana. So waiting for it to pass throug...

The ban applies to a heck of a lot more ammo than just surplus. A really big percentage of new ammo of many different calibers in the US is Russian made and now banned. Yeah but keep in mind this thread was posted in March. This latest round of sanctions wasn't even on the on horizon yet. Since thi...

Molot Factory Hunting Carbine Model KO-44 Carbine 7.62x54R Pasport (Customs declaration, or some such) Yes, the import date would be Oct 2012. I got a similar booklet with the Molot PU Sniper I bought in 2012. Mine is in English though. This was towards the back of it. CIMG1414.JPG CIMG1415.JPG

Insanity here in Marylandiistan. I stopped in at the LGS that I used to work at. I needed targets and saw the shelves full of ammunition. BUT, you could only buy what you were going to shoot there. They did have bulk .22 lr at $75.00 at brick and 20 round boxes of 7.62x39 for $35.00 a box. Russian ...

During the election season in 2016 When it was Trump & well, You know who... & everyone was thinking well, you know who... was going to win hands down ammo was scarce, especially 22lr. I was working retail sporting goods at the time & I had many folks stopping by daily inquiring if ther...

Real nice. These Russian rifles spoiled me when it comes to collector firearms. They sure can be purdy and a lot are!

You can still find some spam cans of 7.52x54R at reasonable prices. With the way ammo prices have been lately switching to surplus rifles / ammo is a good way to still enjoy time at the range while on a budget. I sold a can for $160 in Oct. What's it bringing now ? SGAmmo had 440rd tins of 1985 Fac...

Many years ago (like 10) I did extensive research about this when my uncle gave me a Garand that had been rebarreled by Arlington Ordnance with a 7.62x51 NATO stamped barrel. I read the debate about.223 vs 5.56 and saw that Sammi had a listing for those and not to use 5.56 in a .223 chamber but noth...

I wonder what a thousand rounds of Australian 7.62x51mm on the clip, in cloth bandoleers, and in steel ammo cans would go for now. Or a big brown plastic case full of 200 round sealed bags of South African, maybe 2000 rounds worth would bring? Not that I know anyone who would have stuff like that, ...

Hello, Well, that's because most people are out of money for ammo and the sort, right now.... But, once that $2000 stimulus check gets there, that will change.... Oh, and I say "there" for, they don't send em "here"... I'd just send it back. I don't need no stinking handouts fro...

Just picked up 400 rds of this from Aim surplus yesterday since I was working close by. Boxer primed so it can be reloaded, and it is good looking ammo. I meant to say boxer primed :bonk I didn't even know that AIM had it... It's good you live nearby and could pick it up... :thumbsup: I got an emai...

Nice Chuck. I have one of the bottom ones. It's a Norinco 56S made at Factory 66.

Retired after 32 years in the auto repair business. Most of it as an ASE Master Certified tech but was also a shop foreman for a few years and owned my own repair business for about 14 years. Now I play with all the cool firearms I picked up over the years and try not to get any older. That part has...

'bout now you are probably getting a hint of why I dropped the FFL over a decade ago. I decided I didn't want uncle to have any excuse to crawl up my ass about anything. FFL is very convenient when you are actively collecting new items into your collection and want to do it quickly, but it does kin...

Lots of ammo imported recently as well both 7.62x39 and 7.62x54r over half a million rounds of each. I believe this time will be known as the Silver Age of Milsurps. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Yeah maybe the tarnished silver age. There's some shipments coming in (I said all but dried up), a l...
