what does the conversion process do on a Saiga? i've heard them called "converted" and "unconverted", whats the differences?

Hey guys, i'm finding myself with an itch that i need to scratch... i'm wanting an AK...just what i need, another EBR. my problem is i know absolutely nothing about AK's! what should i be looking for and what should i be avoiding? any advice? thanks, Chris

the last time i was in Coal Creek Armoury in Knoxville they had some 5.7 uppers, but i dont remember the price...

of course it would just for tacticool range fun...you know, assault on fruits and tin cans! :-)

So me and a friend were talking last night over dinner, and he mentioned the possiblities of a "tacticool" .22lr handgun. and he has a point, tons of the Ruger 10-22 rifles are tricked out for "tacticoolness", so why not a handgun? i couldnt think of any off the top of my head, except maybe the Walther P22 series...that would make a cool platform to build on. the new Ruger Charger pistol on the 10/22 action has some pontential as well with all the 10/22 accessories that are already out there...anybody else have any thoughts on tacticool .22lr handguns?

you know this is from the "Gears of War" video game, right? still, it is awesome cool to see one in action!!

here is another +1 for Georgia Arms, they are great to deal with and have great deals as well...

for practice i shoot the cheapest standard velocity stuff i can find...then end the session with one or two good cylinders of the +P stuff i carry in it everyday. i usually go to a heavier bullet in the winter (mainly due to the bad guys will most likely be wearing more clothes so need more penetration) and then switch back to the lighter bullet in the spring/summer/fall. but thats just me...probably not something that alot of people do... i think you made an excellent choice on the 642, especially since you were lucky enough to get one without a lock. mine is lockless and i love it!!! i replaced the ugly rubber grips that came on mine with a set of the standard round butt magna wood grips from an older J frame and added a Tyler T-grip in front of it. feels the same as the rubber grip did now and slides right out of my pocket now since there is no rubber to hang onto clothing... i'll try to post a pic soon...

hahahaa...i love glocks but that was funny!

i so need to get down to Hero Gear quickly!!! nice pieces you've got there...

nice buck! congrats

for meat, i'd much rather have a doe. i've been lazy this weekend and had alot going on...i get an extended 5 day weekend coming up starting on Wednesday so i plan on getting out there some then. congrats on a nice doe...i'm sure you can already taste them backstraps!

my thoughts exactly, very bad photoshopping. i noticed the slide serrations almost immediately

and i thought i had the only production model of that one!

go with a Millett SP-1 or a Bushnell Holosight...both are well worth the money...

i have an enfield that i love, my dad gave it to me for Christmas one year. it had been sporterized before he picked it up for me, and it was my first serious deer rifle. that gun shoots good...so good its almost boring to shoot. i'll try to get a pic up of it soon, but the "purists" may not like it as it has a wood monte carlo 2 piece sporter stock on it...

i can easily conceal my G22 (same gun just in .40 cal) with a couple of different holsters. the best IWB that i've found so far is the Comp Tac CTAC...i got the slide version so i can carry my G27 or my G22 in it. i carry the G27 mostly, mainly because it is a little lighter...but the G22 rides just as well in it. if your wearing a jacket, a good paddle holster is hard to beat for OWB, but i have trouble keeping it covered without the jacket on. another option that i like is a belly band holster, i have one that is made by a local guy here in East TN and it is super nice...i can carry the G22 and a spare 15rd mag in it and it doesnt ride up or down, just sits still and stays hidden and surprisingly isnt that hard to draw from...not much harder than a shoulder holster, and you dont need a cover jacket for it...

i mostly carry a Glock 27 and/or a S&W 642 about all year long...only thing that changes for me when the weather does is sometimes i go OWB instead of IWB (or pocket with the 642). i guess i could carry my G22 OWB with a heavy jacket just as good as i could the G27, but i feel the G27 is sufficient enough...

man, you have a large nightstand for that big of gun!! seriously, i had this happen with a 629 Mountain Gun once, S&W will take care of you and make it right. is possible for the firing pin to break in any gun, not just S&W's. i've wondered if alot of dry firing is what caused mine, did you dry fire yours much?

i think you'd better double check that, i believe that in transportation of the long guns that they must still be unloaded. i know if you are hunting public lands, all weapons must be unloaded while in the motor vehicle, as it is illegal to hunt from a motor vehicle. with a loaded firearm in there, i guess they consider you "hunting"...

nice, let me know what you think about the scope...i'm wondering how the Barska's do...

that is super sweet looking light...

sweet! i love the NEF single shots...i have a few in 12ga and wouldnt take anything for them...

what type of 10ga do you have? i mainly hunt with my Mossberg 500 in 12ga, i put a Limbsaver recoil pad on it and it helped the turkey loads tremendously! i've been thinking about getting a semi-auto to hunt with...not sure if i'd like them though...afraid i'd get to trigger happy

wow a 10ga! what made you go that route? just longer distance? i've not had any problems dropping them with my 12's...but a few of my hunting buddies have gone to the 3.5" 12's and they like them. i wouldnt want to shoot a 10 all day!
