A2 Front Sight Post
It is that easy to replace the front post; unscrew old one...keep an eye on the detent and spring and screw in the new. I went with the Hiviz fiber optic front and I love it! Tough to see in the pic, but you get the idea.

.30-06 Springfield
Maybe dumb luck, but with 20 cans of mixed loose, spam can and enbloc....never had a single round looking like that. HXP 63-77 is mainly what I get and IMHO it matches up to US surplus in quality of components and finish. The story I was told is that Remington was chosen to set up the Greeks on their ammo manufacturing.

It is~ Never considered any other when I made the move.- Colt vs.???
Colt vs.None ...because everyone else is just a copy (well maybe not Armalite :-D)- Mossberg 144LSA
Just picked up my beautiful Mossy 144LSA. Short of the little green and red indicatorss (which are coming), and the typical wear on the bolt bridge, she appears pristine....one of the last of the great Mossberg Trainers. I'll post range pics.Hope you like.- Dumb question time...pronouncing Minute of Angle.
Now THAT makes sense...THANKS!- Dumb question time...pronouncing Minute of Angle.
Told ya it was dumb. So, for years I have pronounced it Minute (MY-NOOT) of angle as in: Adjective: Extremely small: "a minute fraction of an inch". But I'm watching Outdoor Channel and they are saying Minute (MINIT) of angle as in: "time"...which makes no sense to me. What is the proper term??- .30-06 Springfield
You mentioned CMP....Why not stock up on the Greek HXP for .48 per round? Excellent ammo and it's gonna be gone at some point.- My Match M1 build. Not for purists......

Purists may scoff....until they see that group! Not exactly a Camp Perry gun, but a beautiful variation of John C's masterpeice!- mosin 91/30 question
I spend the $99 for a new one. There are tons out there that will hit where you aim.- Renewing Premier Membership
That's exactly what I was looking for...THANKS!- Renewing Premier Membership
...going on a week, nuthin'. I was a Premeir and wanted to renew....Guess my money's no good around here. Anyone?- Anybody know some good documentaries?
+1 Everything Ken Burns does is factual, personal and perfectly produced. Also, if you are a Jazz fan/historian. His CD's are a walk through America's music invention.- Range Etiquette, a Newbie Requested Thread
A little off the safety topic....but please don't proclaim or openly mouth off on offensive issues: Using racial/religious slurs, wearing 3 Reich/Nazi images (less accurate embellishment for WW2 period shoots, obviously)...besides being disgusting, low class and a blight on America...it proves your'e an A-hole. We are here to shoot and be amongst, what I believe, are the best citizens that our country has to offer. Tolerance, Liberty and freedom for all is why the 2nd Amendment was guaranteed. Let's show our best to the gun grabbers and not give them fodder.- Transferring a gun with no serial number
Thanks~ On its way to my FFL!- Renewing Premier Membership

Good morning, Tried reaching out to an Admin with no luck. I was sent a link to renew my Premier Membership to the board, but it doesn't work. How can I contribute? Thanks- Transferring a gun with no serial number
Good morning, I am looking at an early Mossberg Target 22 rifle from the 50s that was produced with no serial number. Can I register this gun in NJ through an FFL? Thanks- K98s seem to have really jumped in price Also question about stocks
+1 on that! Over the years its been No4's from India, SKSs, K31s, Russian and Finn Nagants, RC Mausers, M48s etc...all came in cheap and got scooped up. I know some folks in the biz, and they say Century's warehouses (where most milsurps come in from) are empty. There are stories of vast numbers of surplus in Russia that may hit our shores. Everything you've seen come in is from the sattelite countries. Gotta wait n see. Then there's the Korean Garands...LOL!- Bolt action .223
I don't think this would make a very good Scout Rifle (ala Jeff Cooper). The stock is set up for bench/bipod,- Bolt action .223
Check out the Mossberg MVP. Tough to find...they fly off the shelves everywhere. Chambered for 5.56mm so you can safely shoot surplus or commercial .223. Plus it takes AR mags. BEST .223 bolt action PERIOD~- 1903 from 1919
Great piece of history...Thanks for sharing. Is it a shooter or safe queen? - Colt vs.???
