  1. GI mags should work fine in your M1.
  2. We definitely have some top shelf vendors here. I've dealt with several, and all have been first class all the way.
  3. Right. These are made just for an AR.
  4. My first thought was to cut them in half. :screwy:   Nice gesture giving them away to a member!
  5. Thanks for the help guys. I think I'm going to try the 2 piece Nikon P series mounts. They look good, are light, and priced right. I do think I may later wish for the quick detach system or the Burris, however.
  6. I like the idea of the quick disconnect system, but have read some bad reports of them coming loose unexpectedly. Would I be better off with the conventional bolt on model? Also, would this provide plenty of clearance for fold down back up sights?   Do you have any other good options? Regular rings don't seem to position the scope correctly, and are too low for my fold down sights.   Thanks a lot in advance for your guidance.
  7.                        http://www.strikehardgear.com/   I'll be damned! I thought that was a spoof, but it's actually a real webiste.
  8. That wouldn't be cool??!!?? :ugh:
  9. I've yet to find a round of ammunition that didn't perform satisfactorily in my AKM or SKS, and I've shot several variations of milsurp as well as Russian commercial, Chinese commercial, and American commercial ammo.   As Garufa stated, some foreign ammo is corrosive. I'd treat it all as if it were.
  10. No pictures of the brass or bullets. I don't believe it is the mags, because it doesn't happen with the same mags in my Bushmaster. Today I used one Bushmaster mag, and one of the cheapo mags on sale at Midway.
  11. Five bucks a box for steel Russian ammo is as good as it'll ever be. Buy it cheap, and stack it deep! :up:
  12. Mine shot great, and to the point of impact with the cheesy back up sights I put on it. I haven't mounted a scope yet. Not sure which way to go there.   The only glitch I see is my feed ramps are either very sharp or burred, as my brass and bullets are scuffed by them.
  13. So it was just done for the sake of cheap brass?   Was commercial ammo ever available in 8mm-06?
  14. Mine's tighter than Dick's hatband. :up:
  15. Thanks. It looks horrible to me, but it doesn't feel bad in the hands.   It has a 20" Yankee Hill fluted barrel. I sure hope it shoots good.
  16. Was this an improvement over the 8mm Mauser?
  17. [url=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2392_zps22ff9355.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2392_zps22ff9355.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2390_zps8b4cef09.jpg.html][/URL] [url=http://s612.photobucket.com/user/gregintenn/media/IMG_2387_zpsbaf50380.jpg.html][/URL] Here's how far I've gotten. I haven't fired it yet, and I need to decide what type scope mount I want to buy. The only snag I ran into was getting that little clip on the pin that holds the dustcover in place. Other than that, I bought too many tools, and it was much easier and straightforward than I anticipated.
  18. May I ask why you are replacing the parts?
  19. I see a Smith and Wesson model 49 in the bottom, left hand picture. The rest is generic, indistinguishable junque to me.
  20. I despise Lamar because of the things he's done. I'm not sure why this should be hung around his neck, however.
  21. The rochchucker kit will be A-1 first class stuff. Lee stuff works great, but isn't as heavy duty or pretty as RCBS.
  22. She's a keeper! I really like my Rock Island. I expect you will as well.
  23. That might work. I'm not stuck on 55 grain. Thanks TDR!
  24. Does anyone around Gallatin or Lebanon have some in stock. I load my own, but I'm looking for some as part of a Christmas gift for someone who's just purchased their first AR15. I have magazines on the way, but I think it would be nice if they were loaded.
  25. :shrug:My wife says I'm a tool; not a queen.
