https://www.sigsauer.com/p226-mk25-full-size.html I saw a new one of these at the store, I noticed the Navy anchor and gov serial matrix. I have wanted to try a 90s German P226 for awhile... I was wondering how, if so inclined, this would be better. I saw it's aluminum frame (lighter for a...

I got a an Argentinian Sarco dust cover base to put a scope on FAL and then found a Chinesium Stanag picatinny rail adaptor for it. It would work but to put my optic on there I would need a cantilever/one piece mount which are all 1.5 inches high and basically way too tall when it's all done. If...

Hey all, would like to recommend Finks Custom Gunsmithing of Paulden AZ. I sent a FAL to get a crappy Cerakote job blasted off, polished, and refinished with bluing. As of two months ago, I called a number of local smiths and they declined the job due to work volume. Job was quoted at 4...

Hello all. I want to put a Yugo RPK bipod onto my Vepr 5.45. I might need some advanced help with this, so I'm wondering if anybody can help me out, or has ideas. 1. I can remove front sight base, turn down barrel, get RPK front sight base. I can't do this alone. 2. I can cut/modify bipod...

Been waiting a long time to get a pistol caliber carbine of some kind. I know most guns are 9mm, but there are .40 and .45 options as well. I have more 9mm than anything but could always trade it. Which caliber do you all think is best for a PCC application? BTW I wish the cheapest FN...
