I agree with the concept that if we rebel individually, we loose. Just like our Founding Fathers, a rebellion against government must be done in a coordinated effort by the masses. We can't let the...

Mosin ATI Stock

ATI stocks cost so much less than Boyd stocks although I wouldn't question the Boyd's superior quality. The ATI stock gets the job done. If you ever decide on a Timney trigger, you'll have to cut a...

45 ACP Pistol

I purchased a 45 acp pistol but sold my 45 acp carbine a few months ago. I hated selling that carbine but thinking back, I'm kind of glad I did. Gov Cuomo wants to make all semi autos illegal in NY....

I didn't realize how hard it would be to sell this carbine. I'd have to bring the price down to below $250 to sell. I'd loose over $100. Is this due to the opinion that HP is junk? Although...

The reason I am a bit more dependent on boresighters is due to the distance to the range -40 miles. The weather in northern NY doesn't help. Looking forward to real spring weather. I did have to max...

Barrel alignment

Thanks, I'll have to re-look at the front sight post when it returns. Perhaps my memory has failed me yet again. I do remember the two set screws in the bottom. At any rate, we are getting off track...
