Lucky Gunner of Knoxville,Tenn. just sent me a promotion via Email for a $10.00 coupon towards a discount on a $100.00 + order if I would plug their business on a forum. They also included ample lists of many available ammos with prices....

Re: Bersa Thunder 380

Yes, feed ramp problems can be a problem with smaller semi-autos if dry or not polished smooth.If dry, small rust like pits can occur over time. Check with a gunsmith who can take a magnified look for this or small amounts of lead build up.A proper sized cleaning brush kit can really help . JGC

M91-30 Sniper Turned Down Bolt

I recently bought a M91-30 MN with a tuned down bolt from R Guns. It was in excellent condition but I could find no indication it had ever been a sniper(no holes for optics not even covered ones) my question is why was this rifle advertised as a sniper. The numbers on the receiver and bolt do match ...

Re: Izhevsk AK references

I have fired an Ak47 full auto in S.E.Asia and I shoot my 2 regular semi-auto AK47's as fast as you can bump fire them. None of them can take the heat very long.To me, not much point in trying to burn that much ammo and yourself too! They really do smoke a lot after just two 30 round mags. Accuracy ...
