      Newb to Airguns

      Sorry, the model I have is a single pump side cocker. I liked it because I wasn't putting pressure on the barrel to cock it each time. It has a side lever, you pull that out and it exposes the chamber so you can load a pellet. You push the level so it fits flush and parrallel with the...

      Newb to Airguns

      I bought ans still have an RWS 52. It's almost 20 years old and still runs like a champ. I know there have been years I haven't shot it but as long as I put a drop of that RWS lube for the piston chamber it has continued to work great. Its a .22 cal and it shoots pellets around 900fps+. I...

      P38/P1

      I was nervous when I ordered. Online it shows Prepaid shipping on all of them But when you go to the one with pin and long serrations it says at the bottom "o1ffl prepaid shipping, 03ff 2nd day at customers expense." So I wasn't sure but when I called the guy I talked to took care of it. I...

      P38/P1

      I got it from Wideners. There pricing right plus you could choose between with or without the lug and with or without the extended slide serrations. It cost me 369 and that includs 2nd day air. I was on the fence for awhile because it seems like alot for a surplus gun sight unseen. But its a...

      P38/P1

      I just got my P38/P1 in the mail. Its a postwar with the alloy frame. I picked on with the lug and extended slide serrations. I hope I made the right choice. From what I read online it seems that lug was put there to strengthen, or create a stronger wear point. I know I should have pics...

      any members own a saiga ak?

      I had the same think happen with one of my AK's. The bolt goes almost to the point of fully closing but it wont. It was basically headspaced wrong. There wasn't enough room for the round to fully seat and bolt to close. I sent it back and they fixed it. Since then and 1000+ rounds later i...

      Thanks. I shot an email to czechpoint and told them what happened. I also told them when comparing the chamber to a Romy ak they look different. My Ak's chamber is the same chrome color as the rest of the bore. The chamber of the VZ is dark with copper/brass looking streaks or even...

      Hey guys I have a quick question about a failure to eject a spend case. I had my VZ58 down the range saturday, shooting herters steel case, and it failed to eject. Being a brand new rifle I didn't put too much presser on the action to pull it out but it was stuck pretty decent at about 1/2"...

      Stripped mine and evrything came right off. Alot better than I expected. Put on one coat of Sedona red(really liked the color in this post), think maybe one or two more coats. Havn't decied on semi gloss or satin for the finish. So far so good, everythings coming out the same shade. Except...

      The Gun Rack, Burtonsville MD

      You looking for the D-technik aka Czech Small Arms Vz58(this is what CZ use to have and Czechpoint now sells) or the VZ 2008 by Century. I have heard good things about the century although I don't own that one. I can vouch for the D-technik

      Beltsville Sport Center gone or still open?

      I work less than a mile away. It seems they dont have set hours. I've stopped by on my lunch break during the week and they have been closed, but other times they are open. The 2 ladys, and dog, seemed kinda mean at first but then they were ok. I had heard they were robbed and thats why they...

      Maybe someone can use me...

      Liberal Arts grads on average end up making more than sciences so its definately not worthless. Right now I'm looking for the survey I saw this on a couple years ago but I have heard it many places. Science degrees find jobs quickly and make more intially but after 20 years Liberal arts grads...
