  1. Not to mention, no matter how poorly the Republicans treat gun owners by paying lip service and then not following through, what are their other options? They’re not voting for a Democrat who is openly hostile to them. The R’s have gunowners as a captive voting block just like the Democrats have many minority groups. They get all of the benefits without having to do any actual work. Welcome to the plantation.

  2. I will take a different tact. Get what you want. Your son is not going to know or care what caliber it is at first. What he will eventually care about is maybe getting his dads gun. He will certainly start shooting with a BB gun or 22. When he is ready, then figure out what would be good for him. I think 243 is hard to beat for a first deer gun. I am not a fan of the 30-06 as there are much better calibers out there now. Long story short, your getting ahead of yourself. Your gun will be something he wants someday and it won’t matter what caliber it is. He will always have his first gun and eventually yours. Best of both worlds. I also personally agree that 25 cal is a perfect caliber for here. Unless you are going out west and need something bigger, there is no need for a 30 cal. I personally shoot an x-bolt 25-06 and Rem 700 257 Roberts.

  6. Your post made me laugh! As far as bump stocks are concerned, when I first saw one at a gun show, I thought, "How in the world is this not classified as a fully automatic weapon, semantics about pulling the trigger aside. It fires like a full auto." I could see it being banned way back then. The handwriting was on the wall. It was a loophole that would eventually be closed. My second thought was how often would I want to expend $30-$50 worth of ammo in 3 seconds? My answer was never, so I passed on buying one.

  7. This is a most common question amongst SKS shooting enthusiasts. How can I get my SKS to use AK mags? The sensible answer to that is don't bother, or buy an AK, SKS M or D or get one of Marcus's various adapters that uses AR type mags. Technically, there is a lot of modifying to be done to a standard SKS receiver to get a AK mag to run in the gun AND still maintain the strength & design integrity of the SKS action. A few years ago Shot Gun News ran a gun smithing article on how to do the conversion and in my opinion it was a total butcher job. First of all, the SKS being of tilting bolt design relies on the left and right rails of the receiver to support the bolt locking shoulder. Cutting away at them willy nilly so a AK mag can fit up in there is a good way to ruin your SKS. I don't even like the SKS D or M models that were factory SKS AK mag-ed for commercial sales. For one, they weakened the right side receiver rail by milling completely threw one area of the mag well "flat". Also, the SKS was designed to have a bolt hold open. This integral part of the design is a crucial component to keep it "mil Spec" duty. Deleting the BHO creates 2 mechanical shortcomings that was designed out of the AK. 1) the SKS firing pin, upon many dry firings can "volcano" the firing pin hole in the bolt face leading to blown primers from a cookie cutter effect. The AK Firing pin design is not prone to that miss fortune. 2) When the SKS bolt is free slammed on to an empty chamber (no bolt hold open function), the 9-12 o'clock position of the barrel chamber face will eventually be peened out into the chamber wall resulting in a inability to eject fired casings. The ONLY thing that has kept my interest in this AK conversion is the idea that it can in fact be done without harming the structural integrity of the receiver design AND modify a standard steel AK magazine to function the SKS BHO just as the original 10 rd fixed box mag. The following information is NOT a solicitation for doing this for work! I am not in business. This is only one of my beloved hobbies. That said, paying some one to do this is more than likely way, way beyond what any one would want to spend on a SKS but hey, its still a free country just PLEASE, if you decide to do this on a SKS, do it on a bubba'ed up mis matched clunker of no collector value! The first consideration is to remove the most minimal amount of metal from the inner mag well to allow a steel AK mag to fit comfortably in it. In this pic, please know it is imperative you do not mill the radius area any deeper than it is in this pic. I go deep enough on it, just to take the blued finish off and no more. This is also critical to allow the AK mag to function the BHO. The leading edge of the radius is chucked up "level" in the mill vice so each pass replicates the original angled cut. The cutter used for this operation is a 9mm ball nose, 4 flute carbide end mill in a 10mm milling collet. All dimensions in this article relate to a Yugo SKS. The standard width of the SKS receiver is aprox 1.258". The mag well width needed to be achieved in this particular operation is 1.022 - 1.025" . To achieve that, Aprox .025 needs to be milled away from the flat of the mag wall on both sides leaving a finished receiver wall thickness of .118". I set the mill bed stops to the original cut lengths so you simply move the bed over to the opposite side, keeping a mirror length cut of the opposite side as shown. The next operation requires a 4 flute 1/4" square nose carbide end mill cutter. Level the bottom flat of the receiver with the flat of the milling vice to mill parallel with the bottom flat of the receiver. Dye the original flats as pictured and measure 1.480 from the face of the receiver ring back to the flat and scribe a line on both sides of that distance. Zero the cutter off the dyed flat. There are 2 cuts to this operation. one is to maintain the prior cut wall thickness of .118 forward in the well and mill that dyed step down by .075 right up to the scribe line as pictured on both sides uniformly. Once this is done, There will be no more cutting of the receiver side wall. The next cut requires you to bring your cutter back up to your set zero of the dyed flat. This original dyed flat will be maintained with the milling to be done across the mouth of the opening as pictured. The depth of the cut foward could be anything from .035 to .050 as it varies in receivers. But as measuring as before from the face of the receiver ring to this new cut across, you should end up with .985" as pictured here. The width of the cut is only enough to make it across the opening of the well as pictured In this next comparison shot, I have sharpie blacked out the original uncut flat. This high lights the last across cut and pictures the next 2 cuts above it to be made. The next being the same as last using the same 1/4" cutter to form a new "step" over the last across cut. Zero the cutter off the very top of the receiver flat (actual bottom) and bring the mill down .180 and mill across as before. Bring that cut forward toward the ring until you have .940 as the finished distance measuring as before from the face of the receiver ring back to the front wall of this new cut. The final cut here is the use of a 1/4" ball nose carbide 4 flute end mill cutter. Zero the cutter on the top flat and make this cut .140 deep and .100 forward toward the ring and the finished cut will be centered in the receiver as a .320 wide cut. If every thing went as directed, you should have a mag well capable of fitting most steel AK mag dimensions.... At this point, the AK magazine latching hook should be aprox .050 rising up above the receiver flat as in the above pic. Behold.... how the right rail is not milled threw with the high point of the magazine feed lip showing. The next segment of the conversion requires a steel latching step be fabricated and welded over then newly machined latching notch. I use a 110v mig welder for this purpose since it puts very little heat in the receiver. That's a good thing for not disturbing the heat treat hardness but will require an oven re-heat treat at about 375F to relieve some of the stress in the weld joint its self. If not done, the new latching piece could just snap off the receiver at some point with rough use. In my first conversion I simply drilled & taped 2 holes at the latch flat and screwed a latch plate on there and that was more than adequate so you really have a choice here. The next few shots are the making of said latch plate. 2 of them side by side. The relief mill cut is .055 deep. Once the new piece is in a clamped position, take the largest length wise AK mag you have and rock it in and out from under the plate. This will force the plate forward to a position that allows the insertion and removal. Be for warned, AK mags vary greatly in this spec of from under the latch hook to the rear of the mag at the very top of the lock in plate. My widest mag runs 2.515" and I have one at 2.478" So be prepared to mill the leading edge of the welded on plate forward a tad if you run into mags that wont rock into place or you can trim the back edges of the mag. Your choice. The only way this minimally invasive machine work will work out as a reliable feeder is you will have to cut 2 new feed ramps into your chamber face at the 5 and 7 O'clock position. I have never had a single hick up with this feeding or ejecting. As a matter of fact, the pictured feed ramps will feed the big blunt round lead soft points that I don't remember who makes flawlessly. In the next segment, I will describe in detail the AK mag mods needed to function the SKS BHO. OK, The AK magazine works well for its intended purpose due to its robust design and that entails a very strong follower spring and a follower that can slop on past whatever may fall into the hull. Its these 2 features in particular that allow for a follower and hull modification that will reliably function a modified SKS bolt hold open device. First off, The SKS receiver to be used in this conversion can not be a D or M model since neither was machined with the traditional BHO devise. There is only one receiver mod that must be done to the receiver its self. That is to mill down the BHO spring hole wall. I use a 1/8th diameter carbide end mill cutter for this operation. With the receiver chucked belly up flat in the milling vise, set the cutter to zero at the top edge of the wall that separates the spring hole from the mag well its self. Mill this thin wall down by .060" and clean up the cut so as to have the Bolt Hold Open piece slides up toward the bolt by the additional; .060" of travel. It must slide up and down smoothly so any fine edges in the new cut needs to be cleaned out with a dremil and the little spring nub on the back of the hold open can be trimmed a tad for smooth function. The spring need not be cut. The next step is to mod the BHO piece its self. Mill .060 off the very top and .060 off the very bottom of the little hook. This gives a over all new height of .675 and a hook height of .170". The bottom edge must be beveled off as in this pic. The next step is to mill away the follower where it stops on the hull follower nubs. I milled .175" down from the top flat of the follower. Find this area by scribing around the hull stop nub with the follower pressing up against it as in a empty unloaded mag. The intension here is to make the feed lip be the follower stop rather than those 2 nubs in the hull body. Next you need to find a thin leaf of spring as pictured. The spring I used was about .015 thick and I trimmed it to a length of 1.550 and a width of .315". Its welded position allows the top of the spring to protrude .180 above the top of the follower bed. A small relief is cut at the top follower flat where the spring will touch when pushed all the way forward to touch the follower bed. The depth of that cut is to allow the spring to be flush with the top back edge of the follower. This picture captures that thin relief cut and what the final job will look like compared. The back of the hull must be milled as pictured. The top protruding edge is milled down ward by .110". The next mod is to mill a relief of the inside of the magazine as pictured. The mag is set up in the mill vise with the feed lips set at a 70 degree angle from the top of the vice flat. Bring the cut down so it will make a blunt edge at the top of the last operational cut. This cut will allow the slight bend in the spring to get under the BHO as the last cartridge leaves the magazine. Spits em out & locks open like factory!

  9. Actually not the point. The point is that they keep moving the goal posts; if they rule something legal, then how are we to know otherwise. As far as I'm concerned, if they "change" their minds, the onus is on them to make current owners whole, not make them destroy their property or go to jail. This is not the first time they have pulled this BS, they should not be allowed to do it again.

  10. @Hozzie is right. It doesn’t make much sense to buy something with the intent of it being an heirloom. Too many emotions and variables long term. Get what you want and a good .22 rifle to teach and have fun with. If it takes then whatever you used may or may not become something to be treasured. And get something in a normal caliber. One that ammo is widely available for and will be a long time.

  14. Let me start off by saying congradulations on the new addition to your family!! I know this might not fall in the catagory your looking for but let me say this. When I was brought here to Tennessee from Illinois at age 16 to live on my Grandfathers Farm/Ranch I didn't own a deer rifle but had been hunting small game since age 10 so was not unfamilar with hunting. My Grandfather ask me one day if I had a deer rifle and I said no sir. He didn't say anything but just turned and walked away. About 10 minute later he came back and handed me a Winchester model 94 and said every boy should have a deer rifle in Tennessee. I went the next day and bought two boxes of ammo and went out in a cut down corn field and put up some targets. A buddy of mine that lived down the road from me went along. Well, needless to say the recoil was about like a 12 guage 3 inch Mag round which I was not really expecting and it hit my shoulder fairly hard. My buddy Wayne told me I needed to make sure I had it tucked into my shoulder better. We had put the targets out about 60 yards and my grandfather had told me to put the target on top of my front sight when I went to practice. Well, was shooting at 8 inch pie pans placed on a couple bales of hay stood on end. Out of a box of 20 rounds I had 12 hits for sure but a couple looked like I may have put a second round through a previous hole. That deer season I managed two deer hunting with Wayne and his brother Tom. Over the years I killed a lot of deer with that old 30/30. I still own it and It will be my Sons someday. He did grow up using it to hunt with and killed his first several deer with it. He began hunting deer at age 11 and he used the gun to bag I think he said 14 deer before he went to a 30-06 Winchester Bolt gun but the gun was passed down to his oldest son when he began hunting and he killed 16 deer with it before he stepped up to a 308 Savage model 110 bolt gun & scope. My Son and daughter in law thought there would be no more children but sometimes things happen. A new addition showed up after his older brothers were 18 & 16. His name is Logan. Well when he was 10 years old his oldest brother began taking him small gamehunting to see how he would react. Needless to say the 30/30 had one more hunter left in her and at age 12 Logan bagged his first buck on a juvenile hunt with the 30/30. He is now 15 and has began looking for more range and has been shootng his fathers 30-06 but wants a 243 so that will be coming from Santa Claus this year. I know you weren't expecting a book report but it all really goes back to a family heir loom hand me down issues. That gun was bought new by my Grandfather back when he was a young man and since then it has been a deerslayer through 6 different family members. It remains in my oldest grandsons gun safe waiting for the next generation. There has been another 30/30 Marlin added to the batch of deer rifles in the family only because someone wanted one with a scope. Good luck with what you deside for your future deer hunter. If it is a hand me down from his father it will mean that much more over the years.

  15. Just an update... the simulator event was held this past Thursday and it was a great success! We were booked to capacity, and everyone had a great time. The word "fun" was used by most, more than once! We had some experienced people, some new people, and such a positive experience should go a long way to ensuring that the newbies stay engaged, and continue on to be both shooters and supporters of the 2nd Amendment. We all need new 2nd Amendment supporters and that is one of the primary intents of my business. So send me your "on-the-fence" neighbors, timid co-workers, shy friends, or disinterested girlfriends and wives. I'll show them a good time. Not only will we have new 2A supporters, but you might just get a new shooting partner! And we do have simulator time gift certificates for the holidays!

  16. https://www.foxnews.com/us/washington-police-chief-says-he-wont-enforce-stricter-gun-laws-that-infringe-citizens-rights Published November 16, 2018 Republic Police Chief Loren Culp says he wont enforce stricter gun laws passed statewide because they “infringe” on the second amendment. A local police chief in Washington state says he won’t enforce newly passed gun regulations that he claims “infringe” on the second amendment. Washington now has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation after new regulations were passed by nearly 60 percent of the state this month, KXLY reported. Under initiative 1639, the age to purchase certain guns has gone up, enhanced background checks are now required to buy a semi-automatic rifle and criminal charges can be brought against any gun owner who violates the safe storage provision. But one local law enforcement official says he won’t be the one enforcing these laws. Republic Police Chief Loren Culp took to Facebook to tell the citizens of his city, who voted overwhelmingly against the initiative, that he has no plans to implement the rules. “I’ve taken 3 public oaths, one in the US Army and Two as a police officer. All of them included upholding and defending the Constitution of the United States of America,” Culp wrote. “As long as I am Chief of Police, no Republic Police Officer will infringe on a citizens right to keep and Bear Arms, PERIOD!” Culp told KXLY that he feels the ordinance “completely flies in the face of both the U.S. and State constitution.” In another Facebook post, the department proposed its own legislation that would stop the state and the federal government from “infringement of the right to keep and bear arms." The Republic city clerk told KXLY that the ordinance would be presented to council members next week but Culp says he doesn’t need approval to carry out his new policy.

  17. I prefer the Remington or Winchester. Tiger deer rifles just do not feel as good in the hand as the other. I would consider the .243 or .308. One thing to consider is in 15 years you and your son are out hunting and forget your ammo or run out. You go find a country store. What ammo do you think they will have on there shelf. There will always be 308 and probably 243. The 6.5s are popular now but what about in 15-20 years?

  20. I think you are spot on with the .243. I’ve never shot a .270. .308 in a bolt action is heavy recoil for many men, let alone a kid. $1000 budget on the gun alone covers almost anything. I recently wanted walnut and high gloss blue. For the prices people were giving me on used; I just bought new. I bought a Winchester Model 70 Super Grade so I could compare it to my Remington 700 (haven’t got a chance to do that yet). I wanted .223 (for paper not hunting); they don’t have it in that so I got .243. It’s more than your budget, but there are plenty of options in that price range. I also had a problem finding gloss Leupold scopes. They are limited in what the offer anymore and I had to settle. My Remington 700 VLS 308 is a tack drive, but it’s heavy. And its laminate, not solid wood. The Remington 700 CDL is solid walnut, but the barrel is satin blue instead of high gloss blue. Good luck in your search.

Several years ago (2006 as I just checked), operating under this condition in TN law, we hosted a Manadnock class using a local LEO trainer for certification. I've carried a variety of impact tools since (actually I carried them long before, but back in MS &LA). I keep a copy of the law, laminated, in my wallet...the issue has never arisen in any case. I take that you are a former, or current, LEO @ChanceMcCall . Therefore I assume you've been credentialed in impact tool use and application. You should be good to go. I have certs in OC/ Chemical agents (DTI and others) and carry OC, but the certs aren't required (to the best of my knowledge) in TN. Knives? again GTG.

On the contrary, Folks following directions of one article on the subject still believe its easy peasy simply because to quote the article, " Remove feed rails and widen frame to accept magazines". Hows that for cutting bubba loose with a dremil & grind stone. Lesson here is NEVER EVER buy a SKS that has been home modified for AK mags unless you take it apart and actually see the recoil shoulder is still attached to the receiver ring with most of the mag well metal. It pains me to think about how many good SKS receivers have been ground into a potential face grenade because of these old DIY instructions over the years. Like the old saying, Why study & learn when ignorance is instantaneous!

  31. Truth. Empire is hard. So is math. The political reality of 2018 is that if you’re going to keep the lights on and the toilets flushing, both parties are really constrained in what they can actually hope to do. And, that’s even further constrained by what they can pass - even when they’ve got their hands on all the levers of power as the GOP recently has. The American path - in this late stage capitalism is largely determined. Either party can deviate maybe a couple of degrees in either direction. But, you’re staying on the path. Rhetoric is easy though - and it works. I’d love to see the average American really figure out that the political class at large - not simply the other party is just feeding them rhetoric to keep them punching down and focused elsewhere while they continue to loot the place.

  39. You should also consider a .30-06. Remington makes a nice line of Managed Recoil ammo. The managed recoil .30-06 has less recoil than a .243 Scroll down this page some and check out the charts. https://www.remington.com/ammunition/centerfire-rifle/managed-recoil This would give you a lot of versatility for shooting 125 gr ammo to 180 gr.

  40. I regret that I voted for Trump and all of those other Republicans. I should have cast my vote for Hillary. I was but a lowly hillbilly gun owner who knew not of what I was doing. Thank you for leading me into the light and showing me the error of my ways. Edit: @Chucktshoes you were spot on target.

  41. Now this is a "2 for one shot" The hunter, who the wildlife agency identified as Bob Long, took aim at a buck with “big antlers” off in the distance. After making his shot and killing the animal, Long approached it and made an “astounding” discovery: The buck was “carrying around another set of antlers and part of a decomposing carcass,” the agency explained. The deer, which was "truly a rare harvest," state wildlife officials said, has garnered thousands of reactions on the social media platform, many users responding in both awe and disgust. https://www.foxnews.com/great-outdoors/kentucky-man-bags-deer-with-decapitated-buck-head-stuck-in-its-antlers
