usnmars 136 Posted October 27, 2011 Does anyone else get any winter projects to keep themselves busy while the snow is falling? I do one every year and thinking big time out of the box on this one. A 7.62x39 detachable single stack ak mag MOSIN! HMMMM, the gears in my head are spinning. Anyone else doing any builds or restorations this winter?

hd2000fxdl 422 Posted October 27, 2011 Yup, Load a bunch of ammo, Do work on different guns I already own, not doing a build this year and Load a bunch of Ammo. Probably take down one Harley's and do some work on it for the next season, and Load a bunch of Ammo. There there are a few other projects around the house that I will be wrapping up, oh and did I mention, Load a bunch of Ammo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matt6669 71 Posted October 27, 2011 And I'll probably finish my Monster Mosin this winter hopefully, but hopefully my winter isn't really a winter as I'll be in sunny Florida. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matt6669 71 Posted October 31, 2011 Well we are going to "attempt" to do it to my monster mosin. We'll see what happens. If anyone has 1 or 2 psl mags they have laying around with no use for, it'd be greatly appreciated that I would like to buy them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MedicYeti 96 Posted October 31, 2011 I have a couple projects in mind. I just finished a trigger job and duracoat on my PC4. Also added an accessory rail and ordered a Magpul AFG for it. I am going to duracoat my P94 to match, probably do the magazines as well, (OD). I'm thinking about duracoating one of my AR's; perhaps German Blue If I can find a cheap 8mm Mauser for cheap I'd like to do a conversion kit. Mauser that shoots 45acp and uses 1911 magazines. If I get the extra cash I'll finish one of my arisaka restorations. (not a cheap restoration). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkmanted 54 Posted October 31, 2011 MedicYeti got to give you credit that Ruger PC4 has a lot of small parts in that FCG ,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MedicYeti 96 Posted October 31, 2011 MedicYeti got to give you credit that Ruger PC4 has a lot of small parts in that FCG ,, Yup, and the pin you graciously made for me is not the smallest part. This is a trigger assembly I have become intimately familiar with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkmanted 54 Posted October 31, 2011 i had 2 of them ,, great little guns. I made the mistake of taking one of mine apart on a range table ! Got it going again but I was surprised on how small every thing was Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DTtuner 21 Posted November 1, 2011 1) Finish my "Battle AR" build 2) Keeping waiting patiently for my PPP to arrive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCBound73 1 Posted November 4, 2011 Can't have too Mosin projects, so here's mine. I bought one in early September that I haven't even looked at yet, specifically as winter project, I plan on stripping it, removing all the cosmo, sanding down the stock to bare wood, then painting it OD green. I know, not very exiting but my abilities are limited and I'm still learning. Other project is turning a spare bass guitar case into a rifle case, I can easily fit 2 rifles in it along with scopes. Not too exiting but should keep me home so I'm not out wasting fuel and money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLugNutZ 21 Posted November 12, 2011 possibly build my 1st AR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
67gtonut 847 Posted November 12, 2011 Wilwood Master cylinder... Pro-Touring Front Suspension.... Oh...... gun stuff..... sorry APEX the M&P compact.... Save for my 1st Revolver.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkmanted 54 Posted November 13, 2011 as long as its working with tools its a project I picked up a tired 97 wrangler for my winter project ! So you guys have a better chance on finding the gun deals because this jeep is sucking up the gun money and my time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MedicYeti 96 Posted November 13, 2011 I found a cheap and beat up Mauser so one of my projects will be a Troup Systems Mauser Conversion. This Conversion turns the Mauser into a 45acp rifle that is fed by a 1911 magazine. It looks like fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
