Picked up 3 things from Cabela's: 5rd box of Fed Premium 12ga 1600fps slugs ($8.99), 10rd box of Hornady Critical Defense 8-pellet 1600fps ($18.99), and a 20rd box of PPU 7.62x54R 150gr ($27.99). That said, military monday promotion (10%) stacked with 24/7 5%off on ammo for veterans, sales tax...

Great information as always. Thank you.

I've seen a lot of people use the Tulammo 7.62x54R on youtube and other sites. I'm not sure if Tulammo has any relation to the Tula factory where this Mosin was manufactured, or not. I'll probably do a pro-con spreadsheet of different ammo before making my purchase. Thank you.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Just didn't want to unknowingly damage it as it's so old, ya know? Thank you!

Pardon my lack of knowledge, and thanks in advance for any advice and knowledge you can provide me. Yesterday, I purchased one of my favorite bolt-actions (it's 89 years old - 1936 Tula factory Mosin) and it dawned on me that I don't know that much about ammo when it relates to older rifles...

That's the key that I feel most people don't understand when talking about firearms...the unofficial 5th safety rule, "Know your target and what lies beyond it". Back in school, one of the first papers I had to do was on the safety rules, and then I had to go through and breakdown and discuss 10...

As my son says "Paperbro is having a real bad day"

Thanks man! 910? J-Vegas?

I shot at two targets, the first target I didn't grab a picture of, but this was shots 51-100 broken down like this: 7m - two handed - head only - 10 rounds 15m - two handed - body only - 10 rounds 7m - one handed left - body only - 10 rounds 7m - one handed right - body only - 10 rounds 7m -...

100% haha. I was 155mm towed artillery, only "infantry" type stuff we did is security/patrols around our own positions, because at the end of the day, "if you can't truck it, f--k it" lol

Also, much appreciated on the "good write up" part. I was bored and as we all are, my mind first goes to my passion of firearms so I figured better late than never. Wanted to post this Sunday or Monday but got busy with life. Hope it helps someone if they're researching something to buy.

Yeah, I can see where it would bug people. Like calling a Marine a soldier....just don't do it man. lol

Hello again, y'all. Just wanted to drop a thread to do a couple of things: 1) Give people information about the Sarsilmaz Sar 9 Socom 2) Give insight on 1st shots Last Wednesday, I added the Sar 9 Socom (full-size) to my collection. Here are the specs and my first thoughts. From the factory...

I'll definitely try that out. Counterclockwise as if you were holding the gun and shooting correct? Surely they (Tokarev) wouldn't mean clockwise from staring down the barrel, right?

I have not. Just to clarify, put the punch in one of the unused setting screw holes?

Yeah, I'm trying to avoid being one of those in the long run, but as it stands right now. It's a wall piece haha.

Hornady is great all-around, I'm heading out of town on business here in a couple hours, but I'll buy a box or two this weekend of a couple different brands and regroup with any updates.

I'm not sure if my local range allows slugs, but I'll check. Much appreciated brother.

Note: I did remove the setting screws, just not for this picture. Tokarev's YouTube page had a disassembly video and claimed there was one setting screw, but there's actually two. Not sure if just a mistake on this purchase or a mistake on their part in their video. Anyways, here's the barrel...

Sweet. I'll check out my options. As far as the 3", I remember reading somewhere that 2-3/4 was recommended because there was some feeding issues with 3"?
