A bucket for anything that does not fit the above forum categories, both longgun and handgun.

CZ, Savage, and Ruger have dropped their offerings so obviously a bolt gun in 7.62x39 is not in demand which is a real shame as this is where this cartridge can shine. I personally see it as an outstanding whitetail cartridge out to 150-yards.

I'm guessing there were a lot of complaints over accuracy issue from people that demanded to get bolt action accuracy from steel case ammo from these rifles. A CZ mini Mauser would be pretty neat though.

That is good news as it had disappeared from their website for a while. So far, I have no disappointments with the Zastava M85.

Wow, hitting an 8" gong with open sights is truly impressive!

Great shooting!
