    I used to work at a Nissan wreckers. Do not buy a diesel navara, the 4.0 v6 might be ok as the VQ engine is good. The YD25s we could not get our hands on enough of as the timing chain would strech...

    mudgripz liked post by Ranal On thread : Shortening a Marlin .22 magazine.
    I read years ago about making a 4 shot magazine for the Marlins but the link doesn't seem to work any more so thought would give it a bash. Mine fit both in a 795 and 25N and the bolt action looks a...

    mudgripz liked post by gundoc On thread : JW15 failure to extract
    It is a common problem with .22 rifles and a real easy fix. Take off the spring circlip (carefully, don't stretch it) by prying it from the bottom edge with a fine screwdriver, remove the extractor...

    I have a Nikko Stirling Nighteater fixed power 6x36 on my older 22, it has served me well over the years and always been reliable. Nikon Prostaff Rimfire on the other one is noticeably clearer and...

    We use a lot of Nikko Airking scopes in 2-7x32 or 3-9x40 or 4-12x40 on 22s. These are well made and reliable, they have Adjustable objective and they are around the $200 mark usually. You can go a...

    Ummmm. No it is not ironic. I think you have completely missed the point. Other than putting a lighter trigger return spring in, or maybe an after market spring kit for about $50 then you don't need...

    I'm a fan of the old Brno's. They're beautifully made. My 1950 Model 1 with Eley standard will group into .25" for five shots at 50m. With CCI hunting subs it'll do around .5" at the same range. Of...
