      Garand Op-Rod Coming Out If It's Track

      Went to the range today and this happened: The Op-Rod on my South Korean Garand is coming out of its track when I load a full clip and push the bolt forward to strip off the first round. Looks like it's slightly above where it should be. The bolt goes fully into battery. Once I get the Op-Rod...

      AR Heavy Barrel, Lots of Chips, and Weight Loss.

      It started life as a 24"bull barrel. Way too damn heavy and unwieldy. So I decided to put it on a diet. Cut it down to 16-1/2". Still too front heavy. The thirty eight 1/2" diameter holes removed 12 more ounces of weight. Now the barrel weighs 47 ounces and the rifle's center of balance...

      Antlered Deer, Bonus Stamps, and Reading Comprehension

      DNR Reading Comprehension Alert for Region B. For years, I've assumed that ONE Antlered Deer and ONE Bonus Antlered Deer meant you could kill a maximum of TWO Antlered Deer per year. The DNR deer hunting guidelines keep using the words per season and per year. Knowing there is an Archery...

      CMP Repair, Garand Gurus, and RA Numbers

      Howdy, All Sending the old beater Garand to CMP for a new barrel. Spoke with them last week and they sent me a shipping label. They didn't provide a Return Authorization (RA) number over the phone and the order form is asking for one. Assumed the RA# would arrive with the label. The only...

      8mm BubbaTurk and Scout Scopes

      Looking for info on forward of receiver scout scopes. I'm sure some folks out there are using them with the popularity of guide/scout rifles increasing. Real world eye relief always seems to be different from specification chart eye relief. Best guess is that I'm working with between 11...

      The OFFICIAL 2015 Bambi Whacking Picture Thread

      Just like the title says (for the impatient members amongst us). :) Once again, the season is here. Well, almost. Starts on September 11th. An ominous date for deer destruction to be sure. All pics from the field to the freezer are welcome. So don't be a bunch of Mambi Pambis - Hit...

      My SKS Safety Ain't Broke No Mo

      Last April, everyone on MDS was buying up Royal Tiger Import SKS rifles. They were being sold as gunsmith specials with broken stocks and all that good stuff that tinkerers love. Well, one of mine came with a broken safety catch spring. Finally got around to ordering one from Murray's...

      Quality Yet Inexpensive NON-METALLIC 7.62x39

      Just what the title says. Looking for relatively inexpensive NON-METALLIC 7.62x39 Corrosive is fine as it won't hurt a damn thing. Any Opinions on the Yugoslavian M-67 surplus? Need in-door range ammo. Any favorite brands or favorite bulk vendors out there? Much thanks in advance.

      Calling All Ruger Blackhawk Owners

      Ruger is closed today and I have a question that needs answering. Are all Ruger Blackhawk cylinders the same length regardless of caliber? Bust those bad boys out and take some measurements. I have an idea for a new chambering, but I need some numbers. Especially from someone who has...

      Life Is Fine With A New '59

      Yugoslavian M59 SKS that is. Brand spanking new and never been issued with all original matching numbers. Went to PA to buy a few things, but I never thought I'd come home with this. There was white, magical glow coming off this and it was begging me to pick it up. As it turns out, the...

      Browning A-Bolt and AR15 Trigger Pull

      Howdy, I wanted to change the trigger pull on my Browning A-Bolt II. Factory setting is supposed to 3 pounds to 6.5 pounds. When adjusted down, the best I could get out of the trigger was 4.5 pounds and it feels like a 100 pounds when shooting precision. After some research, I found that...

      Some well done NRA commercials are now being run on FOX News. This evening was the first time I've seen them. One presented by a white female and one presented by a black male. Smart!

      H&R, Pounds Per Square Inch, and a Face Full of Receiver

      Calling all gun freaks who do stupid stuff. Here's the dilemma. I have a spare H&R shotgun receiver and a spare 45-70 barrel. I want to mate the two together as the fit is perfect between the two parts. The listed chamber pressure rating for a 45-70 Trapdoor load is about 17,000 to...

      Walther P1, Full Mag, Slide Stop, and Lock Open

      Calling all P38 and P1 experts. Every to every other shot, the slide release is engaging as if the magazine were empty/last shot and the slide is being locked to the rear. The slide release lip on the mag follower is fairly well chewed. Like it's in constant contact with the slide release...
