Looks interesting. I'd like to see one 'live' and shoot it to see how it performs. I'm not a big fan of lasers, however, on a pistol with no sights, some kind of 'aiming device' would be helpful, even if it just functions as 'hey, the target is here'.

Ooooo. I got some new toys!

First is a FAB Defense KPOS pistol carbine conversion. With a Glock 17 inserted inside, I now shoot this out to 100 yards.



Second is a CSA VZ58 in 7.62x39 with FAB Defense furniture and shock absorbing butt-stock. The red dot is a Bushnell TRS25. The only thing left to add is the muzzle brake which is coming from Israel.



....I have a semi-auto "modern hunter" being made. Chambered in .308 and has the looks of an AR. Pics will follow when it's done in February. The Remy 700P is being worked on....bedding, new bottom metal with drop mags, muzzle brake, and truing.

Still going to the range although the outdoor range is hard when it's cold. More updates to follow.


Edit: Almost forgot the commie rifles. A black Russian SKS clothed in ATI and a Chinese SKS original. Both in 7.62x39.

Does that require a stamp / NFA hassles? That's pretty slick and I've got extra Glocks.

I'm not sure what you mean by "stamp". No hassles from anyone, except of course our inept firearms laws. It's restricted, yes. But other than that, you buys it and you use it....

They make them for other pistols too.

Uh...assuming that you are in the USA portion of ITU Zone 2, a pistol conversion with a stock and a foregrip is an SBR and therefore a Title II weapon under the GCA and regulated by the NFA. If you're caught in possession of that assembled weapon without a tax stamp ($200), it's a sure ticket to a Federal courtroom, and that assumes that an SBR is legal in your state and that you aren't therefore violating state law too.

Since you're not sure what Chuck33079 meant by "stamp", it's a safe bet you either aren't in the USA, or you aren't familiar with US firearms laws under the NFA. I wouldn't take it out to the range just yet.

Looks like a mod pruned this thread just a little bit.

Yep!


Back to gun porn!

My Springfield XDs (.45ACP) and my other H&K HK45 (.45ACP) w/ Surefire X400 before I installed a LEM trigger in it.




And now for something a little different.

My other shooting hobby, Hoyt Alpha Elite target compound bow.
I'll list the specs if any one is interested.

I was recently given an old (not sure how old but at least 45 yo) and non-functioning Springfield 187H semi-auto .22 rifle (tube feed). I was able to find an exploded diagram and was able to disassemble it just enough to figure out that the firing pin is broken.

During my web search I could not find a manual for this rifle. Does anyone know where I can get a manual with disassembly/reassembly procedures? I'd like to tear it down, clean it up, replace the pin (Numrich has them), and see how it fires but there are a LOT of small parts and I'd like to have some idea what I'm doing before I take it apart.

TIA for any help.

I couldn't find anything but I emailed a family friend who has the knack for finding old firearm stuff.

Edit: I didn't watch them but some Youtube vids came up in my search. They might helpful.




However, I did find this though. It's the biggest collection of manuals and diagrams for firearms and firearms accessories I've seen.

Have you tried local gun shows? The ones around here there's always a sizeable contingent of old-timers who could probably show you how to break that down and reassemble it.
