      Winchester 94 repair and refinish

      Hey all. My dad owns a Winchester 94 (1966, 30-30 Win, top eject) that has several issues. First, the loading gate is cracked and it's impossible to load the magazine without leaving part of the preceding cartridge sticking out of the port. Second, the furniture could really use a...

      After nearly a year of waiting, it's finally here! M1A JAE

      Ordered the stock at the end of August last year. Springfield M1A loaded stainless in a JAE G3 stock (titanium gray and swat black). On that note, do any of you have a decent 30mm-tube scope and/or bipod you'd be willing to trade for a night vision rifle optic? :):thumbsup:

      ACOG fake?

      I recently received a trade offer that includes what looks like an ACOG TA01 NSN. The seller is unsure of the exact model, and he says there is no tritium illumination of the reticle. He also claims to have used it in Afghanistan. Is there a surefire way to determine the optic's...

      An odd trade request?

      Hey all. I very recently acquired a used Volquartsen TF-17 (.17 hmr) rifle from a fellow forum member. I was wondering, would it be worth listing in the classifieds to trade for a high end air rifle or target .22lr pistol/rifle? It's a beautiful rifle (minus a few dings) and very well...

      First purchase; thanks!

      I happened to stop by Engage for the first time a couple days ago to conduct an exchange with another member, and decided to take a look inside the store. I was greeted by a friendly group of individuals, and was offered assistance almost immediately. Only had enough for a box of ammo and...

      Future .308 Rifle: MA-TEN build or LMT MWSE?

      Hey all. I'm looking to purchase or build a rifle sometime in the future (as in, when I can afford it), and I am currently looking at the above options. So between the Mega MA-TEN with a monolithic railed upper and the LMT MWSE, which would be the better option for target/"tactical" shooting...

      Reloading .300 AAC Blackout Using 5.56 Brass

      I found this video/article link on the reloading subreddit on reddit.com. Is the process really this simple, or might there be issues with the finished cartridge? Given that the rounds sell for about $15 a box before shipping, this could be a huge money saver.

      Needed: AR Gunsmith in/near MoCo

      Hey all. I recently purchased a mid-length upper with pinned compensator and A2 front sight, but I wish to install a free floating rail at some point (yes, stupid of me for not considering that before I made the purchase :sad20:). Is there a decent gunsmith in the MoCo area that would be...

      Francotte Stock Issues

      Hey all. I'm currently working on restoring a Nepalese Martini-Henry Francotte pattern rifle. I've noticed that there is a bit of stock wobble, and I've traced the issue to the screw being loosely threaded to the receiver. Is there a way to fix this? Here are a few images of the...

      XRAIL Tube Mag Extension (23+1 rds)

      From the article: "XRAIL is a shotgun magazine extension that supplies your shotgun with 23+1 rounds using a rotating chamber system that works a bit like a revolver. As each tube is emptied, the housing rotates automatically to bring a fresh magazine into the feed cycle." (repost from...

      Does anyone have a copy of Quicken Willmaker they'd be willing to lend?

      Hey all. Thanks to Clandestine's recent Draco AK build offer, I've been looking to prepare for my first sbr-ing. I have read on various forums that a trust is the best way to go, and that if one cannot afford a lawyer it would be best to use the above-mentioned software program. So I was...

      Savage 10 FCP or FP Choate in 308?

      Nagant 1895 Revolver...Opinions?

      I was thinking of purchasing a Nagant revolver sometime in the future, but I know little about them. Does anyone who owns one have an opinion of it, good or bad? I've read that ammo is difficult to find, and that it has a horrendously heavy double-action trigger and time-consuming reload...

      Hunting in Maryland

      I have never gone hunting, but I was hoping to do so sometime during the next month or so. I have no experience, and I have no idea how to start planning for the event. My experience is limited to target shooting, hiking, and rock climbing. Can anyone offer some advice to a newb wanna-be...

      New shooters going to Cresap on Sunday. Advice?

      I and a group of about 15 new shooters are planning to go to the Cresap range this Sunday to shoot my AR. Is there anything in particular we should know before embarking on such an endeavor? What costs are involved, and what policies may cause issues with large noob-group shooting? If I...

      Use of public transportation to transport firearms/parts

      I'm aware that one can transport a firearm to certain specified locations using a private vehicle, but what about those who can only use public transportation? 1. For example, say an individual was to take a bus to a gun store and buy a gun, would said individual legally be allowed to take...

      Regulated firearm trade?

      I'm thinking of trying to trade my Stag M4 for an HBAR or AR with a longer barrel. If I were to do this, what would be the proper procedure to follow and how much would it cost?

      Soon to be gun owner needs advice and stuff

      I am hoping to acquire my first firearm as soon as possible following my Jan 27, 21st birthday. It will likely be an M70AB2 sold on AimSurplus, because I cannot afford anything much better, and I want it to be some kind of EBR. So, how early can I begin the purchase and transfer process...
