Re: RUAG Primers coming to the firing line
The bass pro shop by me (illinois) has federal large rifle primers in stock. They are $110.00 per thou. If you have a bass pro or cablamos near you it might be worth a look. While you are there you can pick up a $15.00 no.7 rapala shad rap and a $9.00 bag of beef jerky the size of a tea bag, such a ...

Re: Bogus Hatter
Those fake silver dollars have been around for a long time. I was told they originally came out of latvia. Leave it to the chinese to copy something. They are usually in a plastic case that is hard to open and not easy to weigh. Of coarse if you accidentally drop one on a hard surface it will not &q...

Re: Something is Fishy
Is there anyway to keep these "bots" out of the forum? They make me wonder if they are just mining for info on the forum members. Another theory is that jeff bizos has his minions looking at this sight to get info on Krag rifles to start making them again! Thats probably a stretch. I do li...

interesting article
This article was posted on another collectors forum. I thought it was pretty interesting. If there are any Krag Phillipine constabulary rifles to be found they would probably be in one of the stacks of weapons in the article.
