  1. Asking $650 (or best offer). Up for sale is a lot of 2,235 rds (+/-) early 60s 8mm (180gr, some brass, some copper washed steel). It was marketed and sold by Centerfire Systems back in Oct 2020 as 8mm Czech. I have since been told it’s actually Bulgarian (not sure). I paid .23cpr. According to the inflation calculator that would be .29cpr today. If you want to fire it it’s actually comparably accurate to what I consider some of my best other 8mm milsurp through my scoped Mausers. I was getting about about 2” +/- groups through scoped Yugo M48 and M24/47. BUT this ammo is 80% click-bang (short hang-fires). I gave my reloader buddy a bunch to pull and reload bullets with its powder into once fired 8mm brass. All fired fine so powder is fine but you’d have to make your best guesses about how to work up reloads for yourself since there’s no telling what the specs of this powder is. FTF sale and willing to meet within an hour of Nashville. Please PM or email me at “kmadATneylexDOTcom” or text/call 615-three zero six-4472
  2. Bolt guns for a traditional baffled can would be RPR in .308, RAR in x39, possibly looking at a .223 bolt gun as well. None in 8mm.
  3. Thanks for the feedback. I looked at the Silencerco Omega 300. Description says : It ships with a 5/8×24 Bravo Direct Thread Mount, Bravo Basic Tool, Bravo Multi Tool, and a .30 cal Bravo Anchor Brake. That's good but is it Hub adapter compatible?
  4. I bought a HUXWRX Flow Range 36 Ti ( as my 1st can) and am enjoying it. My goal was to get something that would be able to go on a couple 8mm guns (M76, M49) . I actually found a guy that makes a direct thread Hub adapter that will allow fixation to an M76 Flash Hider (here soon). 1) I’ve been looking for direct to Hub thread adapters to go on some AKs i.e. ComBloc 14x1LH barrels (M77, M70B1, VZ2008, Dracos, others). But have only found a few so far. I would have thought many would be available out there. I may eventually invest in FH to Hub adapters to quickly swap but that stuff really adds up at what I feel are pretty ridiculous prices per rifle (for what should be low dollar adapters). Yea I understand adding a KNS piston may be indicated. For M76/M77 there’s a guy that makes finer adjust gas adjust piston-cups. As far as non-concentric issues, well, I’m hoping the 36ti diameter will be generous enough so as not to fear probs on 30cal barrels. HUXWRX is pretty vague about what they “approve”. Any of these GTG? https://www.eccomachine.net/product/direct-thread-mounts/ https://charliescustomclones.com/energetic-armament-direct-thread-mount-for-vox-m14x1-6h-lh/ https://yhm.net/suppressor-accessories/hub-direct-thread-mount-system-yhm-2189/ https://www.opticsplanet.com/rearden-mfg-direct-thread-1-2-28-suppressor-adapter.html?_iv_code=66B-MD1-RDT1SA2-10175 2) I do want to get another traditional baffled can specific for use on my bolt guns (RPR in .308, RAR in x39, possibly looking at a .223 bolt gun as well). None in 8mm. What would be the best out there nowadays? Since backpressure is not a concern is there much difference? How to identify what’s out “there” on the interwebs? 3) I can’t help but wonder, since the Hearing Protection (or SHUSH) Act is basically part of Elon’s (err umm Donald’s) beloved Big Beautiful Bill and has a good chance of maintaining through the Senate, Are we all waiting for it to clear/pass? Of course, if it does there will be a massive run on suppressors and back orders will go through the roof for maybe a year before things settle down, new players hop into the market and, I would assume, prices plummet . IOW are you waiting ?
  5. Y'all are making me second guess selling this thing. I'm actually a 20th century battle rifle / milsurp guy so this really isn't in my wheelhouse as a range plinker.
  6. Actually, last year I could have sworn I found a couple boxes of 35 REM but I looked everywhere last weekend when I posted this for an option to include but can't find it. Might be buried in a unlabeled ammo can. I'll take another look this weekend. I'd offer it at well below Market price if I can find it.
  7. I was asked to provide pictures of buttstock without the leather cheek riser. Virtually spotless with the exception of a tiny white scratch on the left side that could probably be buffed out.
  8. $800 FTF (Sold) · “JM” stamped · VG Condition · Excellent Bore with sharp lands (probably around 50+rds fired by me) · Includes 4x32 Tasco Scope (Japanese made) clear glass (blemish on rear housing bell) · 95%+ Bluing (slight blemishes on bluing at base of barrel on right side) · Light scratches on right of handguard · Light scratch on bottom of pistol grip This is a serious varmint to large game lever action rifle with excellent accuracy. My 1st rifle, I bought this used from a buddy in 1986. He only ever sighted it in an took it hunting one time. We took it to the range once in the late 80s. Ten years ago, I took it out to check zero and fire a couple boxes of ammo. I could reliably hit 100, 200 and 300yd 12” steel plates. In total I’ve probably fired four boxes of ammo out of it. Ruger purchased Marline and recently restarted production initially announcing MSRP @ $1,279 and availability in 30-30 and 35 Rem but it doesn’t look like the 35 Rem is going to be offered after all. 1st "I'll take it" is awarded. PM with any questions. Face To Face, cash transaction at a public location preferred. Willing to meet within 50+ miles of Nashville, TN. If shipping the buyer will send cashiers check or money order that must clear before shipping. Add actual shipping charges to your FFL. Sale is for rifle “as is” and I offer no warranty with regards to operation of rifle or scope.
  9. Unless there were some significant sentimental value or a family heirloom I just can see putting the effort and expense into such a restoration. Wouldn't you rather have a nice (as put into storage in the 60s, since unfired) 1944 Izhevsk PU Sniper ? Ping me if interested.
  10. I think he's made it pretty clear nothing has happened in six years and that it's actually more rusty sitting in its original box than when he 1st got it. Maybe there's learning happening via others stumbling onto this necro-thread but I bear no witness to any skills under development by the OP. Now would be a great time for a "beating a dead horse" emoji.
  11. Well, dude, it's been SIX years now.
  12. The Magwedge is a terrific option. Have one on my SKS-D https://www.magwedge.com/product/magwedge-sks-kwikrail-gen-4/
  13. Wish I could post pictures of it but this forum won't let me upload any more.
  14. Right, per the thread , if you read it. I did not DnT it.
