I would just get a GI guide rod and plug. Keep is simple and you can press the slide back easier if you get a bad jam.

My neighbor gave me what I assume is a sporterized 91/24 Carcano. Not in that bad of shape. Cleaned it up, got some 6.5x52, and test fired it. 20 rounds at 25 yards and half of them keyholed. Possibly the worst rifle I’ve ever fired.
I’ll probably hang onto it to give to the guy that says he can shoot better than me with any rifle.

Picked up a new Sig 1911 Ultra Compact in 9mm last night at North Shore Firearms in Middleton. ordered Wednesday arrived late yesterdaay afternoon. They even stayed open past closing for me due to the damn traffic last night. Sweet new EDC. New firearm and AL Pennant in one evening.
Also stopped by Bob’s a few days later and did quite well there too. Been on the lookout 1911 WW1 repro for some time now. Patience pays off.

Lucky enough to be able to own this piece of history. Untouched since his discharge from the Navy back in 1945. And has been in the family ever since. He was not a gun guy so it sat unused and unaltered since the war. Colt frame and Remington-Rand slide. Since he didn't use it he buried the mags when he got home from the war. So I had to find period correct mags.
put together my first ar-10. aero upper and lower mostly. nothing special other than I have $845 into it. i will swap out the grip for a black one and add an optic. first thing i noticed when i picked it up was i'm not in 5.56 Kansas anymore. has not been fired...yet

Is this a Pre-May dealer sample or fully transferable Pre-86? If its the latter a truly rare piece indeed, I have never seen one! Nice rifle.

That makes sense, I wasn't positive but I thought these came after CGA 68. Cool gun for sure!
Andrew. I am free to make my purchases where ever I please. No one will convince me otherwise. That being said. I have purchased firearms from almost all shops in the area and have been treated well by all of them including Steve at Northeast Arms. If I ever decide not to make a purchase it will be because I didn’t like the deal. I have been a member here for a very long time. I’ve heard and read every opinion everyone has made about all our local dealers. I will make my own judgements and spend my money where I see fit. “Keyboard Commandos” have absolutely zero influence on any decisions I make.
