Here it is after a day of sun baking and de-cosmofying! Cosmo is a good friend and did it's job, but I thing we need some time apart.
She is a 5 digit serial number and no factory stamp. The bolt, carrier and the thingy plate that covers the recoil spring don't match (my first sks, can you...
Well, I finally got my C&R and my inaugural purchase is a Beech Special Select with cracked stock. The BBT man brought it today with some GP11 on his second delivery attempt. Knowing my weekend is booked, I just had to take it apart and clean it up tonight. Sleep is over rated. :)
I am new...
I sent in my C&R app last week. So to celebrate I bought my first Mosins. A Type 53 and a 91/30. Neither are remarkable that I can tell but I'm having fun and planning to shoot them too.
The 53 is from the party thread so here is the 91/30. She appears to be a 36 IZ post war refurb. Any...
I shot a BUG match today in Annapolis. (Yes it was COLD!) During the match I had two instances when my newish J frame (Model 638) went click instead of bang. Upon examining the cases there was not a mark on them or the primers. It is as if the firing pin did not contact them at all. Both...

The first rifle is a Winchester model 67 from 1934/35 that belonged to my grandfather. The second is an Arisaka T99...
Thanks to the advice of the forum I am planning to try a khoslter little moon IWB with a J frame snubbie. As a healthy American @ 6'1" and 250+ish, I'm wondering how this will work.
What do my big boned brethren out there find works for them? Holsters and handguns info please.
Greeting MD Shooters,
I am signed up for the UT CCW course and I have made arrangements to procure a S&W Model 638 for an option on my occasional forays outside of the PRM. :thumbsup:
Sorry to the forum that I didn't ask which gun and which caliber to choose. I so wanted to hear all of...
:banghead: Okay so I have a new DPMS Panther Lite 16 A3. It has a flatop and what appears to be an A2 style front sight (stock as furnished from DPMS). Attempting to zero it this weekend makes me think the front post is too short. I have a Pro Mag flip up BUIS with windage only adjustment...
