What's the shelf life of these old milspec gun oils?

Yes. Very accurate. Mine (traded it) shot the Ranch Dog designs very well. Still available from NOE. I know, they were originally designed for Marlins but my Win 94 shot 2 moa with it.

What rifles? The Marlin 336 is a good one for what you're doing. Get them both!

I hate wasps and will go out of my way to kill them. I got swarmed as a kid by the big black ones that live in the ground. Over a hundred bites/stings (?). I'm still getting even. Now I'm looking for...
I gave my daughter a 605. After testing it out myself. She's not a gun person. (Understatement!) To deal with recoil complaints we finally settled on a factory "cowboy" load from a major...

Shoot a few factory .300 Savage rounds thru it. See what it does.
I have a 25+ year old Charter Arms Undercover .38 Special that is my primary ccw choice when in town. I had the hammer bobbed long ago so it is used mainly DA but can still be cocked and fired single...

Maybe it's time for some civil disobidiance. (SP?) There are many examples of very bad laws being forced on us. Get to it, I say. Make SsS a full time job. Hopefully some relief is coming with the...

Thanks fellas for the good info. I am finding I like this P14 way more than I expected to. Nice combination in my book-a front locking lug Mauser type action with one of my favorites, the .303. The...

I just got a nice Winchester P14 in .303 Br. IF I wanted to could I safely increase loads over standard pressures? I know the action is up to it no sweat. The brass? Same brass used to make .303 AI...

That's funny! I thought walker, like a four wheeled cane. Then Walker hound (Treeing Walker makes a noisy pet!) Then Tennessee Walker horses. (Had those too.) I'd love to have that Walker in the...

Well, that's it then. Thanks for the head's up. But, I do think this new toy from Mossberg is less an 'aiming' thing and more a real close range blaster. I wonder if a Brenneke slug point blank will...

Stainless steel and you have the Alaskan boonie gun of all time. What's not to like? It's a niche filler. Good for Mossberg! I like their style more and more.

My old CVA MR .50 is a tack driver for sure. Says 'Spain' on the barrel.

I have a Chinese made 12 ga. double barrel side by side coach gun that I got for cowboy action shooting a while back. They are currently marketed by Century as a 'JW2000'. I believe it's basically a...

Ishapore 2A, 7.62 NATO. For a real bargain look at the Steyr M95 8x56R. They are plentiful and economical to buy. Very fun to shoot. Have fun!
All I know is the Chinese SKS I had was 100% dependable. Couldn't make it malfunction if you tried. Of course the correct bullet from the little commie will smoke a deer at reasonable ranges.

I want to see that! Sounds like a serious load.

Looking at your antelope makes me hungry! Last one I got was 20 years ago. A very rare California tag. Anyway, I'd like to see/learn more about the Swede's stock disks and other markings. As far as a...

Very nice project! I'm curious what you will be hunting with it?
Forum: Military Rifles
What a gold mine of information! Thank you all for all the help. I'll try to post a picture of my project/parts gun with flush fixed magazine. The difficulty arises from no longer being slanted to...
Forum: Military Rifles
Thanks for the replies. It appears any hope of a flush fit will involve a fixed magazine. California laws haven't got around to this subject, yet. There's no restrictions particular to hunting and...
