The dark side is good too ----- now if only they would chamber an AR in a rimless .45 Colt ! -- Hmmmmmmmm :!: GUYS! The .458 SOCOM and .50 Beowulf are NOT rimless .45 Colts! They are rebated rim .45-70s, .50-90s, etc. Now THIS is an AR chambered in rimless .45 Colt: http://762precision.files.wordpr...

About the time that the same corporation ran Chrysler into bankruptcy, they announced that they were bringing all they "learned" in the automotive industry into the firearms industry.

Who could have foreseen these results?!

If you were shooting 223 try 556! The extra pressure may help cycle the bolt better.I know of two guns that do that. This could be, but it is a symptom, not a solution. Again, we are talking about guns that are marginally functioning. If it does make the difference, then the next step is to figure ...

Reminded me about this missionary I heard about. He went to visit a backwoods church that sent him support and report on his work.

. Those Marlins lock the bolt into battery at the rear - where the square bolt Model 1936/36 is lacking a RH receiver wall (connecting the top to the bottom) to support the bolt lock. That's the reason that Marlin re-designed the Model 1936/36 into the Model 336. The Marlins only lock at the lower ...

People used to use the lye itself to clean things, or even to remove something from their skin that was tough to get off, resulting in lye burns to their skin.

I get calls all the time from people who have booked a hunt up here and want to know what rifle to buy for the hunt. My first response is always, "What have you got already?" For the most part, if the guy has a .308 or .30-06, I tell him he is good to go for moose or caribou. Moose are not...

I have a soft spot for both, but a Model 71 saved my life once. It jumped up to my shoulder, fired, and dropped a charging moose 10 feet from me in a split second. I saw it happen.

7.62 Precision

Military went to the .308 as simply a shortened '06 as powder technologies became better and they could get the same velocity with the same projectile. The military's reasoning was all about logistics, of course. .308s take less space and weighs less than .30-06s. They also require less brass, small...

Yes, I'd just change the trigger to aftermarket, rather than shipping to Remington. There are a couple things about the Remington trigger. It is not such a bad trigger, but when Remington designed the 700, and as they modified it over the years, they knew the would have trouble competing with the Wi...

Howdy, I have both in Brownchesters..so modern steel. M71 in 50-110 and 86 in 45-70. What I like about the 86 is that the locking lugs are parallel while the 71's have a slight taper. The 71's lugs will kick the lever slightly on a hot load while the 86's will hold until failure. This is not a prob...

7.62 Precision

71, of course. The 71 is the culmination of everything Winchester learned about making leverguns, and the guys who were running the 71 project put all they had into it, as they saw it as the way to save the lever gun at Winchester (of course, they simply say it as an improved 1886, not real as a new...

Fellas, the Swiss looks good, but like all military bolt guns they are for the right handed crowd. I've passed on '03s, 1917's, various Lee Enfields and so on. Swiss Products makes a really cool drop-in left hand conversion for the K31. http://pics.ricardostatic.ch/ImgUsers/2/7/738/73838/7383838/73...

The K31s are pretty neat.

That's why you shouldn't use Chlorinated brake/carb cleaners if you are going to weld. If there is any residue you will create Phosgene gas......and death is for a long time.

First mistake, you tried to fake CCH, you need to do it the sage and proper way, with steel at 1600 deg F :)  Kidding aside, first I would get the MSDS, everything has one, find out what is in that stuff. A lot of folks try and imitate CCH with Cold Bluing compounds, or Tincture of Benzene, and he...

7.62 Precision

Do you have a Swiss K31? If not, you need one. They are well-built, accurate, and a very unique action, almost as fast to run as a lever gun. All the surplus ammo is match ammo, you can use the same bullets as a .308, and you can scope it easily, inexpensively, and non-permanently. If you get one, c...

I think it is about marketing. When I first saw those, I assumed the mag curved. The I realized they had a straight mag and that made me take a second look. The grip does not curve in in the bottom, it curves OUT in the middle. In other words, the pistol takes up the same space as it would with a st...
