As the title says... Looking for a firing pin for a HSc Mauser (WWII era, 1940s production - not the 1960s version...). Checked the usual sources and tried my Google fu but not much turning up so far.
So I'm looking at a SHT 22 IV, BSA manufacture. Looks to be all original metal, but it's sitting in an aftermarket Monte Carlo poly stock. All original wood is gone.
I've got a DP rifle with good wood.... I'm thinking of using the wood from the DP to restore the .22, but of course, it's...
Just had a conversation with a guy under the impression that since SB281, MD law says all C&R purchased handguns must be shipped to a MD 01FFL for transfer.
Finally figured out that he believes this because he wanted to order a handgun from J&G and they told him that was the law :rolleyes:
I should probably ask this in the MD 2A section, but since it directly concerns C&R, I'm asking here...
The laptop I'm using currently will not open a .PDF document and I'm sick of trying to fix it, so I'd appreciate anyone pasting the appropriate paragraph from SB281 here so I can read it...
I have a position that will be posted in the next few days for an opening I'll need to fill by mid-June.
I am looking for an entry level IT person, experience is a plus, that can handle day-to-day help desk type requests, basic printer and workstation troubleshooting, new hire account...
But seriously, $219!! Wow. Whats an M44 going for these days? Prices are really getting ridiculous. (Yes, I understand the M38s are becoming more scarce and overtime prices will rise.) But we are talking Classic, here. I'm sure there is at least a little gouging/inflation going on...
Just came across this site and thought I'd share. For most of my C&R's I prefer to stay all original, but I'm sure there are times when I'd be interested in a period style replacement...

OK, so I'm sure some of you have been through this. Does anyone know best practice for entering a firearm in your bound book that doesn't have a serial number?
It's my understanding that before the gun laws changed in the 60's firearms didn't *have* to have a serial number and many form the...
I've finally got a little time to jump into the last "u-fix-em" SKS I got from Century.
Other than A LOT of cosmoline, there doesn't appear to be much wrong with this rifle at first glance. I'm going to be heading to the range with a friend later in the week, so my immediate goal is to get...
Any of you NRA certified or a Military or Police Instructor interested in making some $ on the side for a few one-on-one trainings with my son?
My son is 19. He is enlisted in the USMC. He was scheduled to leave May 23rd, but he burned his hand and the Doctor at MEPS wouldn't clear him, so...
I just picked up a few boxes. Get it while it's hot. At least this is a little cheaper than the modern production stuff and the gun itself is super easy to clean so I'm not going to worry about the corrosive primers... 70's surplus.
So, some of you may remember the thread I posted back at the end of Feb beginning of March where my boy and I completely went through a M59/66 as a nice Father/Son project before he went off to Parris Island for the USMC.
We had a blast and it has turned into a really nice tack driver. I...
So I've posted previously about a u-fix-em SKS I picked up from Century.
My boy is joining the USMC and was supposed to leave for basic in January. Before he left, we swapped in a bunch of US parts for 922r and dropped this thing in a Tapco stock. It was a fun project, but one of the issues...
My boy lives with his Mother in NH. He is leaving for Basic Training with the USMC on Jan 23rd and came to visit me for the weekend.
I figured what could be better than letting him assemble his first AR15 lower before he goes away...
I don't have an upper for this yet but will most likely...
EDIT: ADDED PICS OF TEAR DOWN BEFORE CLEANING BELOW 10/6
I know, I know... I should know better than to post this when I haven't taken pics yet, but I've got a lot of work to do today. No time for more than a quick field strip and inspection at this point.
So far, I'm feeling really good...
I had to go back and check my bound book to see how long it's been since I picked this one up. Almost a year. And I'm embarrassed to say this is the first time I've even picked it up to break it down, give it a good going over and a much needed cleaning.
This thing had no cosmoline on it at...
I've been a member of the AGC for a couple years and have only used the pistol range twice. Both times I went with another member who already had targets setup so I didn't need to do anything.
I went this morning on my own only to be frustrated and return home without ever removing my...
If you haven't noticed, AIM still has VG-E condition P64s available for $179 w/ two mags and a holster.
As I logged on to order the other day, I noticed they had added a "Grade 2" pistol. Still has two mags and a holster, but will have visible finish wear and other minor marks. These are...
So I stuck my C&R renewal in the bill basket when I received it in June and promptly forgot about it. I only noticed it again late in July! :o Ooops.
So I mailed it off Aug 1. Oh well, can't be mad at anyone but myself. Figure it will take about a month to process. If I'm lucky I'll...
