Turboprop21

The hunt has been on for a few weeks for a "dragunov" style rifle. I haven't had any luck finding anything within a reasonable price on gunbroker. AIM no longer has them, as well as most sites I've checked. Any suggestions? Also which would you suggest: Romak III, FPK, PSL? Id like a real dragunov but funds are way off

I miss everything they have including the P1's recently.

I found my little place in the C&R world and after shooting this weekend I wanted a little project for cheap .22 shooting. Any suggestions on a rifle similar to a nagant or Mauser (my favorite) that would satisfy me in .22? I know nagants and mausers came in "training" versions but those are BIG bucks, and those Norinco mausers are scarce. I wouldn't mind buying a K98 stock and finding a barrel/bolt that fits the setup.

I'd be in as well for another

I'm in work on my Florida CCW license for this, hopefully it won't burn a hole in my pants.

Well that answers that question as to with who

Will a magnifying glass work on these suckers?

Just an update, the thread adapter I installed looks neat an all, but isn't practical. Since it's threaded onto to barrel it needs to come of EVERY time you want to take the slide off. Not worth the hassle IMO

Ive been looking around for one the last couple of weeks while waiting for permits and decided to hold off on the AIM opportunity. Well of course their sold out now. Any suggestions where I can score a Walther P1/P38 for a reasonable price?

That was my first reaction a while back too. And while I thought it was comfortable it was not. I fixed that by practicing my stance as if I was holding a handgun in my hands. I mean like constant repetitions until it became natural without hesitation. You'll be surprised how practicing with just your hands works, not to mention I feel it's harder to find southpaw accommodated weapons.

Or you could always store them in my safe and free up some room in yours

Did some cleaning on the German 147 Mauser I picked up and decided to snap some more, I edited the picture for looks.

Glenn, What did it take to get the PSL NJ legal if anything? Also where do you recommend picking one up if you don't min me asking? Thanks

Looks great! I just did the same today using denatured alcohol on my 1940 Mauser. I literally thought about it all day and last night and just decided to do it because my shellac was in real rough condition, and I'm glad I did.

Welcome, any ideas what your going to purchase first?

We should get a match going today for those that are home.

No worries I'm big joker myself, it's what gets me through the day. I'm not sure if it matters to you or not, but when I bought mine I was careful to research the different model numbers. I wanted the WAP22003 model which has a removable barrel nut. The Cali legal CAP22003 does not.

Well played fellas, well played. Sadly I'm only talking firearms here.

Harry, Unfortunately I'm in the same position and day 30 comes this week so I haven't seen the gun yet. I'll report back maybe next week once I have the chance to take it out. I also picked up a pink P22 for the fiancée since everything else I have hurts her. Sidenote: I did attempt to order this from the above link since the website said they'd ship it. Well after a day I received an email stating they will not ship to NJ. No biggie

Congrats on your first purchase. Now the addiction has a hold on you, your screwed.

Sometimes I wonder where these what they think logical proposals come from? Do they all lay in bed together pondering on what ignorant law they can create next? First off any criminal with any intent to harm using a firearm will not go through the procedures that we follow in order to support a hobby. He/she will obtain illegal firearms, illegally. Their not going to wait 8 months, register to their name, and complete their grand plan. It's all a means of keeping the honest people honest. Second, this same criminal will NOT care of the states magazine capacity. If the intent is harm their going full capacity to maximize damage. Do you really think a criminal will say to himself "Oh no, I'm going to have to leave this 100 rnd drum at home, I have to make sure I comply with the regulations before I go on my heist." And now I come off my soapbox less angry.

I apologize for the new guy question but I'm just starting out on the mil surp hobby. I just picked up two rifles one which I'll be using surplus corrosive ammo. What method do you suggest for cleaning at the range just enough to stiff leg until I can detail at home? Reason I ask is I've researched and most suggest boiling water which isn't a viable option when I'm out at CR shooting, unlike the guys who have the comfort of shooting in their backyard. Also seen windex as a suggestion, thanks.

Figured I'd bring this back since I played for a few today. Let me know if anyone wants to play a few rounds.

They've been quite reasonable lately. Last set I picked up in January took 8 weeks but the holidays and weather didn't help. Hoping my recently submitted paperwork will take about 4-6 as they suggest from their end.

Well after watching a few training videos and reading up on it all, I'm ready to support the cause if invited. My shooting grounds are CR but I'm in central jersey. What's next?
