Re: cleaning your cleaning tools

Just blast the crud off the brushes/mops with cheap carb or brake cleaner.

Re: M2 carbines

The Israelis apparently agree the the .30 Carbine may be the best sub-gun of all time - they have some kind of bullpup set-up with a M2 carbine in it. I spotted it being carried by a 'secret...

Re: Be careful please

It makes me sick when I hear the lie that 'it just went off' or 'I thought it was empty'. You all know that guns don't 'go off'. The guy was an idiot and should never have been allowed to have a gun...

Re: Cetme 7.62X51

I bought one of those small ring 7x57 Mausers converted to 7.62x51 CETME before I learned about the special CETME loading which is unavailable. Afraid to fire it with 7.62x51, I got rid of it AFTER I...

Re: I bit the AK!

It looks reasonably well-centered to me, and congrats on taking out the perp and missing the vic! However, if you need to adjust the windage the front sight windage tool is the only way to go. Notice...

Re: Question...

Round #1 fired and evidently the case was ruptured in the chamber. The extractor pulled out the back half of the brass.
Round #2 was jammed partially into the chamber with the bullet inside the...

Re: We got a live one

On the day that a hurricane hits OK, I will start to believe the 'end times' theorists. LOL. We sure could use the drenching here in the Mid-Atlantic, though.

Re: Got an Mosin M44

Polish; I used the 'B-Square' rear sight scope mount on mine, and it shot loose too. What did you do to tighten yours up? I plan on Loctiting mine plus using a through-bolt on the front instead of...

Re: R/C Airshow With B-29

When did that happen? That thing is amazing and the 'pilot' was great.

Re: If you could have any gun in the ENTIRE world.

If I could wave the wand and have one gun right now it would be my grandfather's 'Colt .45' (a 1911). It was never in possession of anybody in my family and I only found out about it a few years ago....

Re: Got an Mosin M44

I got a 1953 Hungarian a few years ago and the bolt does the same thing. I turned mine into a sporter with a pistol scope (scout rifle). I have it set to shoot to point of aim at 50 yds. The...

Re: How do you feel about the JFK "Conspiracy...."

Is it documented how Oswald sighted in the rifle after receiving it? I think we all know the chances of hitting the broad side of a barn with an old surplus rifle with a scope stuck on it. Anyway, I...

Re: Question on Naval AA guns.

And bunnyhunter, the caliber in this case is not expressed as a decimal, as in bore size - it's an integer, a multiplier in this case.

Re: IMPORTANT HISTORICAL DOCUMENT QUESTION

Well, I live in Richmond so let me see if I can find it. I would imagine it would be present in several places around town, but you're right, I've never seen it in a book.

Re: Colt gun question

Well, you could keep it as-is for a great lightweight .22, keep it in case you got a pre-war Colt .45 which would make a great set, or break it down and put the complete upper w/magazine, bare frame...

Re: .22 semi-automatic

I agree. I bet the rifle was a Stevens 87 variant. Mine is a Savage-Stevens Model 887 with original Savage-Springfield scope. It's marked '.22 Long Rifle' but I had one previously (Stevens Model 87)...

Re: help me with my colt woodsman 22's

It's not a problem. The Ist series Colt .22 does not have a hold-open. You can lock the slide back but the slide normally closes after the last shot.
