  1. Hey all, I know its been a while since ive posted, but the saiga is just running so strong! At least, until now. I was showing it to a friend of mine and he noticed something.... Rounds that have sat in the chamber have a pretty decent indentation on the primer from the firing pin. If i just chamber it, then eject it the indentation is not so deep, but it is still there. RIght now I am a little worried as this seems to be a safety issue. is this normal? I can see the gun having light marks on the primers form chambering a round as the firing pin is free floating, but the deeper ones (sorry no
  2. If anyone wants to party up on the 360, my gamertag is Hephaestus3
  3. each individual animal can take any amount of killing. I shot a doe last weekend with a .303 brit. WHen i cleaned it, all the chest was jelly, and yet it ran about 80 yards. My brother shot a squirrel through the chest once with a broadhead and it ran all the way up the tree with the arrow sticking through it. I had enough time to walk back to the house and grab a .22 and walk back to shoot it and kill it. It had not died in 10 minutes. Moral of the story is, you never know how much moxie an animal, or person for that matter, will have. Pigs in florida are pretty much shoot on sight and no one
  4. So i just bought the AK-404BUS US made upper and handgaurds for stamped reciever from K-Var and upon inspection it looks as though it wont go on my saiga and I ordered the wrong one. Or I didnt order something else it needs. Or whatever. Maybe IM missing something. Can anyone tell me how the heck these things are supposed to go on?
  5. Hi, i cant get to a camera right now, but I have some 180grn remington .303 british. I just noticed that one of the cartridges has a small dent in it, just before it necks. It is about 1/8in. Is this safe to shoot?
  6. I like mine. Its carries concealed well, a little snappy to shoot. Never had a failure with mine, knock on wood. Im just having a hard time finding magazines for mine. The dealer I bought mine from said he could order some from the company, about $35 or so. There are no extended mags right now. but I would definitely recommend it.
  7. That looks great, but it doesnt list a holster for the crossbreed deluxe on their site for a s&w 686
  8. Hye, i just started carrying, right now im carrying a taurus slim .40 iwb. its realy easy, hides realy well. I have a 686 with a 4" bbl. Any suggestions for carrying without a coat? holsters?
  9. THank you, but that doesnt look like the mags i do have. well, it was worth a shot. thanks for looking.
  10. Ive googled for a week and have yet to find a regular magazine for sale on the web for the taurus slim .40.... much less the extended one. Does any one have any leads or ideas about this? maybe knows where to find an extra mag or two?
  11. Well, i need another US part. I got a folding stock and to put it on, i need another part...
  12. So, Im looking to replace the stock handgaurd on my 7.62 and would like opinions. went through google and got some, but i wanted to see what the forum had to say. I know tapco=crapco generaly, but any experience with the galil or fusion handguards? Any other suggestions? Just want something durable and cheap(er)
  13. So a friend sent me this article: http://www.reuters.com/article/politicsNews/idUSTRE59E0Q920091015 How far has this gone and how worried should we be?
  14. Well said. I know a lot of people are helpless now and the idea of a Peace keeper is good. I am very wary of the police though, and I have no record at all.
  15. ASSUMING you have a safe backdrop... I heard someone say something about this before: Using old tires to make a sort of tube, the report of a shot can be lowered. In effect, they are supposed to act like a silencer does: expansion chambers and baffles. But, since it does not attach to the gun and all, it is legal. i have never tried, so i cannot attest to the effectiveness. fwiw...
  16. WHy not get an air rifle? walmart usualy has one or two of those spring piston rifles that are 1000+. trust me, they work well on possums, just aim for the ear(if its a side shot) or between the eyes. Then you can get marksmanship practice at home with your new toy, also.
  17. Both a .223 and a 20 ga have reliable stopping power for self defense. I dont think body armor is that relevant to your decision, not b/c it doesnt exist, but b/c a hit with either of those guns should cause the bg some serious contemplation, and if you keep shooting until the threat is "stopped", you can always adjust your aim, right? I think the main issues are: what are you most comfortable with and which would you rather defend against a jury? I am by no means claiming ANY expertise, this is just my 2cents. any gun can go through walls, so instead of modifying your gun/ammo choice to com
  18. Well, i dont have a boat, or plan on getting one in the near future, this just got me thinking. I was curious to see what others had to say.
  19. The article being what it is, it just got me thinking about what would be good for ocean troubles, so any answer works. shryke300
  20. I saw this article (its old) http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=6916094 and was thinking about what gun you would carry on a boat, be it power or sailing, for trips into the carribean and such. What do you think? please respond with why you chose a particular firearm. thank you shryke300
  21. definately slugs. hands down. pigs are tough, especially when they're wounded.
  22. no, i have a cheap walmart sling on it right now, but its just for carry.
