Anonymous asked: I wouldn't worry too much about the front site being canted as you can just knock it back into place. The trigger slap can be fixed pretty easily as well, if it doesn't already have one, get a tapco G2 trigger. If you have a problem with the stock, you can also get a nato length stock from KVAR, though some might argue putting one of those on a WASR is simply polishing a turd. Oh, and the problem isn't so much with canted gas blocks as it is with the front trunion.

Yeah, I’ve heard that a lot of the ones on the market have the G2, (922R and what not)
I’ve heard of the NATO length, but do they make it in wood?
I hate polymer furniture on an AK.
The best bet is to just know what to look for, inspect it, and don’t make compromises.

If it isnt something you’re 100% on, don’t settle ;)

dieblitzkrieg asked: I have another question. What do you know about the WASR 10/63? If I can get past the trigger slap, canted front site, canted gas block, and all that other crap would it be a good rifle? I've never been able to get a strait answer for this question and I don't want to spend big bucks on an AK if I don't have to considering it would just be a gun for home selfdefence and target shooting. And do you think it would be a big deal to get a stamped reciever over a milled reciever?

When it comes down to a Kalash, an AK is an AK.
Wasr10/63s do everything an AK is supposed to do; once you make sure you get one without the above mentioned problems (May as well include mag-wobble into that list)
I don’t see how I could justify spending big bucks on an Arsenal AK, when WASRs are so readily available.
Milled receivers are more sought after, but I think the accuracy of them is only marginally greater than a stamped receiver.

I say, go to a gun show/store and inspect one, if it completes your basic checklist, take it home with you.
I’m not sure how much they go for nowadays (450 last time I saw)
I like Kalashnikovs, but I rarely shoot them due to the stock being made for a slavic farmer,and me being over 6 foot tall.
Too short, I literally have to scrunch my face up on the stock to get any kind of good sight picture.

But hell, go for it man.  Buy one.  My old room mate had one and it was a blast.  Shot every single time we pulled the trigger.

WELLLL!!

It looks like the Gun-Gods heard my bitching.

CZ pistols are now in stock.

*Happy tears*

Now, only to pick up a CZ75B, a CZP-01, and a Phantom.

Anonymous asked: Best place to buy a Kar98K? NOT Mitchell's Mausers, I want an authentic German one.

Oh God, thank God someone else hates those bastards.
I would NEVER tell someone to buy a Mitchell’s Mauser.
Kar98ks are really hard to find, your best bet is Gunbroker, or gun shows (hoping people wont try to screw you on price)
I recommend the Yugoslavian M48, those are a little easier to find, cheaper, and in my opinion; just as good.

dieblitzkrieg asked: Your answer was exaclty what I was hoping to hear. But would you say theres a quality difference from a $550 Springfield, and a $900 Colt?

(Probably going to catch hell for this)
But in my opinion?
No.
There, I said it.

Anonymous asked: What kind of bolt-action rifles would you recommend?

Mosin Nagant (for a beginner, cheap and REALLY hard to fuck up)
Any 98 model Mauser (Kar98k, M48,)
Savage 200
Remington 700
Or if you want a .22, get a Savage mk2

These rifles are just my recommendations, there are PLENTY more.
Just remember to research action type for reliability, IMO Mausers are some of the best.

I would have recommended the Lee Enfields, and I certainly do, but ammo is not easy to come/cheap by in the USA.  

10PM

dieblitzkrieg asked: Do you have any experiance with Springfield Armory 1911s? How are they Copmared to Colt 1911s?

Compared to Colt?
In my opinion the only reason to own a Colt is the name.
Colts, Springfields, RIAs are all great mil-spec guns.
Unless you want something higher-end for competition, there’s no major difference.
Springer uses hammerforged frames, I think Colt does too, but RIA uses drop forged.  (Which is the same bloody quality, really.  I fucking hate gun-snobs) 
Most companies are switching to MIM parts, which again, is really NOT a big deal.
You can’t go wrong with a Springer or a Colt.  Hell, there’s only a few 1911s I’d counsel against.

The Para-ordnance GI Expert I shot today would be one, the fucking front sight fell off, right out of the box (1 mag through it)
Hahahaha, maybe we just picked up a lemon.
