      If you like Russian Sniper rifles

      I made this video featuring my two M/N 91/30 sniper rifles. One is a 1939 PEM Tula and the other a 1943 Ishvesk from Tulsky.

      Lucky is best!

      I attended the Wanenmacher Arms Show in Tulsa this past weekend. I had a lengthy list of items most of which I never hoped to see and even hoped less to afford. In the second aisle I found this fantasy item! Yes, it is a Russian Berdan II bayonet which I had previously pretty much...

      Dreyse Needle rifle cartridge update

      It takes more time to form the sabots and cut the paper to shape, but each cartridge when all components are present only take maybe 10 minutes or so to create. Yes, that adds up but it does keep me off the streets!

      Dreyse Needle rifle cartridge update

      Sabots for Dreyse needle fire rifle I turned my sabot forms to size on my lathe and used papier mache to create the sabots. This seems to work well as they fly so far down range that I can’t locate them anywhere close to my shooting position. They are pretty dense therefore I doubt that they...

      FN49 Egyptian sniper rifle

      Actually, Thor I'm with you on that, I usually use the "if I can't shoot it, I don't want" theme! However, I have some experience with sending a rare scope away for almost 2 years for repair work due to merely firing it. I discovered that this Czech scope is pretty much unobtainable at any...

      Here is a sniper rifle that you may never have seen before. All original FN49 Egyptian contract sniper rifle. I have owned another FN49 Egyptian rifle, one with the cheap replacement stock. It was a very fine shooting weapon. I had plans to shoot this one until I researched myself into...

      Enfield No 4 mk 1 (T) update and range report

      Here is the promised range report with a couple of upgrades to my NO 4 (T). I found a proper WW1 dated sling on Ebay and I decided to cobble up a period correct leather scope cover ( as near as I could determine from the all-knowing web). The sling is 1918 made by Westboro Trunk & Bag...

      Keltec RFB report

      Here is my summary, filled with great insight and thoughtful conclusion about my recently acquired Keltic RFB carbine. RifleForward(ejecting)Bullpup is totally ambidextrous in design and generally a success in that regard. It is in 7.62x51 nato chambering, so quite a bit of bang for your...
