scoped mosin guys step in
I picked up a new mosin to replace my "junkie" one. After seeing an episode of american guns where they sporterized a rifle i though it would be cool to do. I have background in machine work and fabrication so i started on it and coming along nice so far. I had bought a scope mount from ebay when my peep sight broke. Turns out the scope mount isnt true. Since i dont want to tap the receiver im gonna use the mount to make a new one. Measurements of the scope mounts you have would be great

Barrel shortening..
I saw an episode of gunsmoke last night where they "sporterized" a rifle. My 91/30 has a perfect back section of the stock. The front is a but scarred and chopped up. The rear sight broke off as well. So this looked perfect. I can do the woodwork and cutting the barrel wont be a problem. I know the rifle works so really the only issue i see is crowning the barrel. Should i send the gun out for it or just buy the tool and do it

Thinking of buying AR-15 .22LR - seeking advice
I have seen a few used ones at cabelas last month for under $200. I thought about getting one to shoot on the cheap. When i picked it up it felt like an airsoft m4 but cheaper. Even my ics m4 airsoft gun is metal and built comparable to my bushmaster ar for feel. I decided to go a different route and got the red jacket zk22 body for the 10/22. You can use any of the designed mags for it. It ships in november cant wait to mess with it.

mosin 91/30 question
When i got my mosin a few months ago at cabelas i took it to the range and even at 50 yards hit nothing. I got one of the cartridge laser bore sights and the beam came out all funky. I did some reading and took some of the rifle apart and cleaned the living crap out of it. Then i went a step further floating the barrel and cleaning up the metal. During the process i broke the rear sight. So thinking ill just add a scope i bought a mount from ebay and cleaned up the original rear sight mount. Well the laser now comes perfect down the front sight and no where close on the scope. So since its a good looker and im planning on a r700 for hunting in the future are there any rear sights like the original that will slide on the rail? I ground the pins down from the original cause they were not coming out.

mosin work
Well after looking the gun over i found that at least at the muzzle the barrel is ovaled. And its in the direction the shots are dropping. I made the choice instead of paying $400 for a nicer sniper model im just gonna save up for a r700. Something brand new. So i have 270 ish 7.62x54r im willing to sell or trade for. 223 or. 45

mosin work
My 31 mosin was a cheap pickup. It shoots low and left no matter what. Im thinking something is out of alignment or put together wrong by the last owner. The stock is really nice but i have been toying with an aftermarket one. The stock peep site mount cracked at one point and totally broke when i tried to take it off to weld the crack. Maybe the barrel is no good from all the years i dont know. Im not deadset on keeping it looking authentic id rather have a great shooting rifle and maybe make a lamp from the stock i dont know. Looking for suggestions.

hi all
I have lived in nj all my life. I'm not new to shooting but I am to buying my own stuff. I'm from sayreville and after years of long heated debates finally got the wife to break down and let me start a collection. First off is where are some good places to buy guns and etc from, second is where are some good places to shoot preferably cheap or free. I'm interested in picking up a umerex hk 416 .22lr for starters since ammo is cheaper and my daughter can learn on it. Is this even a legal gun in nj? Thanks
