For a winter project I picked up a surplus Chinese version of the Mosin Nagant recently... While cleaning all of cos off of the stock I noticed how light (no weight) the wood is. The texture of the wood seemed very "fiberous". Do I have a CHU wood stock? What the heck is CHU wood and how do you...

I've been looking at 22lr for my next project for this winter.... Ruger 10/22 prices are getting sick, if you can even find one. My question is: what is Available out there at a reasonable price ($250 or less) that is reliable, accurate and fun to upgrade (parts are available)? I'm looking at...

I'm looking to purchase ammo online. I'm looking for opinions and input on various companies. I've done business with CTD...and find their service "acceptable" ..not great, but acceptable. Anybody know somewhere to get new / reman. at a fair price?

I am just stewing over this decision. I purchased a Millett TRS-1 the other day. It arrived on a flatbed semi! The trs-1 scope is HUGE. So damn big it won't fit between my BUIS...damn. not moving the buis..like then where they are. Back the TRS-1 goes. So I've crunched the list down to the...
