I have been thinking about trying to convert an sks into 7.62x25 by using a ppsh43 barrel and welding an extention onto it to make it 16 inches. I was thinking about eliminating the gas system since the ppsh43 is just a blowback operated system.
Why does the sks need to be gas operated when the bolt looks so much like the blowback operated bolts? Why couldn't it just be blowback operated?

Have very recently taken up shooting and was quickly enamored with the Glock 17 and S&W 619. Opted for the Ruger GP100 as the S&W was apparently out of production and virtually unfindable. Now an overly armed novice, I need to get to the range, pronto, and enjoy some shooting. My only question is - what is relatively clean, good range ammunition for these firearms? The salesperson also suggested used only 38s for the Ruger as they would "loosen up" the gun (and also said 357 ammo was too expensive) - can anyone chime in on "loosening up" the gun as well?

Hi, can you help me? With a 1842 .69 smoothbore musket, what kind of powder charge should i use? I was thinking 110 grains of FFg, is that to much?
And also, with a .69 roundball how much will this thing kick? I know blackpowders slow burning, but a .69 balls still alota mass to move, would it be like a shotgun slug?
And one more thing, would it be good for taking a deer or something like that with? Hope you can help, and thanks!

I'm a writer and I'm writing a short story. I'm stuck on a scene where the main male character is out in the woods at a deer camp. I've never gone hunting so I need to know what happens at deer camps and such. Specifically, what goes on with the men when the women are at home wishing they'd come out of the woods. Because that's the general gist of the scene. The main character's newlywed wife misses him while he's out hunting with boys...

And if there is one, can anyone show me a place or website that has everything I will need to start, inlcuding all the tools ill need to reload once and twice fired brass
(but minus brass, primers etc)?

I'm looking at two rifles. One in .243 with a 22 inch barrel and the other 7.62 x 39 in a 20 inch. I'm wondering if the second would be significantly better with a 22 inch one also. I'm thinking it might not be worth the extra money.

I'm writing an essay about "blood sports" and wether or not they can be justified, which particular emphasis on Fox Hunting.

I am finding it difficult to find any valid and good "pro hunting" arguements.... Can anyone think of any pro hunting ideas? If not, just what are your views on hunting animals for human sport?

I can't decide between purchasing a Glock 23 vs 30. This is my first handgun and ideally I should try them out but practically this won't be possible due to time constraints on my purchase permit and state laws.

I realize that placement is everything and plan on practicing at least once a week. That said, which would you recommend? **I want what will serve me best for self-defense** and will not be able to afford another gun for many years, however I don't mind paying a bit more for the cost of .40 ammo.

Also, I'm a guitar player and don't want to ruin my wrists shooting, if this would even be an issue. If it is not I'm slightly leaning toward the .45, but would appreciate some input.

Thanks.
