    Is Buymilsurp.com any good?

    Does anyone buy from this site? The most recent review I can find is from 2018 and is not positive. Although there is a tread from 2013 on this site which is positive. However 2013 was pretty long ago.

    Model 60 rust removal

    clarification Just to clarify the gun in question is a Glenfield(Marlin) model 60 of 1975 vintage. The are rust specks all up and down the outside of barrel and rear site. There is also a build up of rust under the rear site where it attaches to the barrel.

    Model 60 rust removal

    I'm not sure if this is right forum, but anyway I was wondering what you guys use to remove light rust? I've always heard 0000 steel wool and oil, but recently I heard that using a brass sponge or brush would work better because it is almost impossible to remove the bluing with brass. What do...

    Semi auto bloodline

    Thanks for the great answers. I'm going to rephrase the question. Let's say its the 90's so the SD9VE has not been made yet, so if I was going a S&W semi auto(Metal frame), What model would I get?

    collector or accumulator ??? fun question

    I'm definitely not a collector. As I don't care about rarity and will not buy a gun I cant shoot. However I mainly go for military and LE along with store brand guns. To add to I've been keeping my eye out a S&W revolver with extensive finish wear, but in otherwise good condition. So I can...

    Semi auto bloodline

    I have what maybe a silly question, but what would be the the 3rd gen equivalent to the SD9VE? I guess another way to say it is if S&W were to replace the SD9VE(just the SD9VE not the whole lineup) with a 3rd gen auto. What model would replace it?

    Family gun problem

    That's not what my family does. :( I wanted to gift my brother a Hi Pointe pistol and carbine in 40S&W, a few magazines, and some ammo. I just want him to have something and I don't make very much money. When I first told my mom she was like "ah hell no, he don't want no gun". She right about...

    Help bringing leather back to life.

    I have recently acquired two complete Romanian AK bayonets. They are in very good condition, except the leather frogs. They have definitely seen better days. One is stiff, cracking on edges of button holes and definitely on the dry side. I took it off the scabbard and have not put it back on...
