Wanted to share a great experience I had in buying Mak parts recently. My Mak came with a set of well-worn Pierce grips, but I wanted to get back the historical look. So I went shopping for original Mak grips and grip screw.

In shopping online, I stumbled across The Dealer Warehouse. Ordered my Mak grips and grip screw for my Bulgarian. Amazing customer service. They reviewed my order and checked to see if I ordered the wrong grip screw (I did - they corrected the order), shipped promptly, and then...get this...followed up to make sure I was happy with my order. A real person, not an automated email. Even coac

My beloved M44 seems to be afflicted with a curse common to the model. Tack driver with the bayonet extended. But shoots far to the left (like 3 inches per 100 feet) when the barrel is folded.

I've been hearing that the cure is to bed the barrel. So now I'm curious...has anyone out there bedded their M44 barrel? And if you have, what were the results?

A friend of mine from a pistol training class had an interesting experience last week. He and his wife were driving through a local grocery store parking lot. A guy in a BMW (with a female companion) cuts him off...friend literally had to swerve his truck to miss the guy. Friend honks his horn. Guy flips him off. Friend honks horn again. BMW stops, blocking the parking aisle, steps out of his car and throws his full soda cup at the windshield of friend's truck. BMW driver then proceeds to charge towards truck. Friend throws truck into reverse to exit the situation. BMW guy chases him on foot. Friend gasses truck to increase distance. Then friend stops truck, steps out after instru

For those of you considering a trip down the bubba path with a Tapco stock, this little story is just to let y'all know that it ain't easy. All those cool Youtube videos indicating it's a snap...yeah, it ain't necessarily so.

I have two SKS rifles. One is a Yugo, previously unissued, in absolutely pristine condition. I will never change a thing on that rifle...love it just as it is. The other rifle is a Chinese Type 56 "beater grade" imported by CJA in the mid-70's. Nothing special about the Chinese other than it runs great and it's mine.

So I recently decided to do some light bubba projects with the Chinese SKS, just to change things up. Project 1 was to install a Tapco T6 stock. I

So I recently celebrated my 61st birthday. And as I age and my eyesight starts to fail, it's become pretty obvious my days of iron sight shooting are coming to an end. At the same time, I'm looking in my gun closet and realize I have a few milsurp guns that are worth waaaay more in today's market than the price I paid. So I'm thinking seriously about clearing out the gun closet a bit and taking my profits on a couple of the SKS rifles, a Mosin Nagant or two, and maybe a CZ-82 pistol or two. Seems as though the timing might be good.

Anyone else having the same thoughts about taking some profits? Do you think the timing is good? Interested in hearing what the knowledgeable folks here h

So today I was in Wally World. Drifted into the outdoor section. The sales clerk at the counter recognized me and excitedly informed me that 7.62x54r steel case ammo was on sale for half price, today only...28 cents per round! Joy! Happy Dance. That's the lowest price I've seen in a few months.

I told him I'd take all he had. We both excitedly rushed back to the ammo cabinet. Then we checked for any inventory in the back room. The total haul for the half-price sale? 2 boxes of 20 rounds each :'(

Looking forward to seeing the new Savage Arms MSR 15. Might be one in my future! http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2017/01/jeremy-s/savage-arms-msr-details-emerge/
