      Savage Mark II fail to extract

      My son and I were out back yesterday messing around on the range when we started having problems with spent casings occasionally not extracting. I could pull them out easily enough with a small screwdriver, but still...it was irritating. I pulled the bolt this morning to take a peek and I'm not...

      Fiocchi won't cycle in my Henry lever gun

      I had some trouble with the Henry All Weather lever gun I picked up last year, but after getting it back from the factory it's run great no matter what ammo I run through it. So I told the missus I was heading out to the backyard range and grabbed a 9mm pistol, a pocket full of 9mm mags, my...

      What to do with spent 22lr brass

      I took a truck load of scrap to Waldorf Metal Co. yesterday, but they wouldn't take a small bucket of 22lr brass. They said the smelter doesn't accept it because it contains powder that explodes sometimes. That seems highly unlikely to me, but then I'm not in the smelting business. What do...

      Disappointing Henry lever gun experience

      I've wanted a lever gun for a while, and I also wanted a rifle that shares caliber with one of my pistols. Eventually I decided on the Henry All Weather in .357 and picked a new one up at a good price at Gunbroker. After it arrived I took it out back to the range and had a good time with the...

      Shoulda RTFM

      I just bought a Henry All Weather lever gun in38spl, unboxed it, loaded it with 130 grain steel-cased Tula that I run through my S&W 38spl, and headed out to the backyard range. I ran ten rounds through it without trouble. I was dinging 6" steel targets at 100 yards out of the box, which is...

      Problem AR10 build

      I've had fun with a James Madison Tactical 80% lower and Palmetto State Armory upper in .223, and I wanted to build one in .308. I machined the lower but am having problems with the assembly. I'll let the pix tell the story. When I try to put the upper and lower receivers together, the...

      IWB holster for 80pb

      I was wondering if anybody's built an 80pbuilder G26 compatible pistol and found an IWB holster that fits? I see lots of Glock 26 holsters out there, but the trigger guard, grip angle, and probably some other things are different between the real deal and the 80PB kit. Thoughts? Thanks!

      Sling recommendations for a front-heavy rifle

      I picked up a Remington 700 VS in 308 with a 26" barrel recently. That makes for a front-heavy rifle, so I installed a bipod. It's been great out on my backyard range, but I'm having trouble finding a sling that works well with such a front/top-heavy gun. With a two-point nylon sling shortened...

      Deer are smart!

      I got home early today and was looking out the window into the back yard when I saw something moving in the brush. Out come these three bucks. I watched 'em for five minutes or so when all the sudden they bugged out into the woods. Turns out the UPS guy had arrived, bringing with him the 500...

      Buying on gunbroker

      I'm looking for a 308 bolt gun and found a Rem 700 on gunbroker with Leupold MK IV glass that, per Leupold's website retails for $1600. It's a used package, but it's selling for significantly less than just the scope would new. I've never bought used before. Is it reasonable to think of this as...

      Full auto legal in MD!! lol

      I was looking for my next rifle and thought I'd check the MSP list. I LOLed when I saw that, apparently, semi-autos are banned but everything else is GTG. Forget the rifle...I always wanted a full auto! And the MSP say it's not banned! :lol2: 1) Is this weapon semi-automatic? If not, it is...
