I've never seen that stuff before, I went to their site and it seems to be just what I was looking for. Thank you.
I'm curious to know what you guys use as far as short term rust prevention. I've got plenty of stuff I can use but I'd like to hear what y'all think works best.
Here you go, hopefully they show up. Been awhile since I've posted pics to any forum.
I've thought about cleaning the rust off but I'm not quite sure if I should or not. Don't really want to risk...
I'll post some pics for you folks tommorow when I get home.
I've got an interesting story to tell...
One day me and my grandma were walking through a local antique store just checking to see if they had any cool stuff. I found a hollow bamboo chute with a...
This is the first I've heard of this. While I am American I still kind of wonder why I haven't.

I bought a box of Winchester 30-40 for $25. I don't even own a Krag. I would love to have on though...
Does the P17 decock when you hold the trigger and close the bolt? The one I looked at didn't and I'm not the least bit familiar with the action.
Well, then that's out the window...
I blame my accuracy on my old rifles, most people buy it.
A local shop has a sporter P17 priced at $275. Barrel is uncut but receiver has been drilled for scope mounts. I have a spare Leupold and would like to have it for a deer/coyote rifle. Bore is in...

Recently I picked up an unmarked Spanish Mauser, serial# 46921. Its actually the reason I joined the forum since it doesn't have any ID marks beside the serial #, but I quickly found some good info...
