Finding lands with a zermatt action

Okay, I went out and played around with this a bit, and jogged my memory.

Take the wave washer out from behind the bolt head. Take the spacer / baffle out too, otherwise it'll rotate independent of the head, and cause all kinds of grief.

Yes, the toggle pin / cross bolt will then be loose, and prone to falling out now that it's no longer under tension. Not a new problem; Savage shooters dealt with this years ago.

There are a couple of ways to handle it if it were a Savage, but they kinda hinge on some particular quirks of the Savage bolt that do not generally apply here. The one that does is pretty damn simple: put some grease on the toggle pin, and stick it back in the hole.

The more 'sticky' or 'tacky', the better. But even the mil-spec TW-25B stuff will work.

Caveat - if you let the bolt drop too much, or if your grease isn't very tacky, then the toggle *might* try to come part-ways out over the mag well. Just reach up thru the well, push it back into place, and continue pulling the bolt to the rear. By the time you get to the bolt stop, it'll be safe.

U.S. Army/Navy/USMC M14-based sniper and DMR/SDM rifles circa late-1960s to late 201Xs

The Army did its typical bumbling and stumbling and after wasting many years and millions of dollars announced in September 2017 the HK M110A1 would replace the EBR. The HK started fielding in 2020 and has delivered to almost all Army squads and platoons.

There is still no Field Manual or qualification table.

This is the EBR replacement (based off the HK G28 with a SIG telescope) at the 2024 Arizona National Guard's Adjutant General's Match in Florence, Arizona:

When , like that's going to happen :(, they find the people/organizations funding and paying for these people to riot need to be sentenced perhaps to North Korea or Iran where they can protest there (assuming these are not state actors funding this shit). Or, open Alcatraz back or one of those islands off California where swimming with Great Whites would be their passtime.

For me, the real question...what is the end game here? Other than destruction of The Republic. Do all these idiots think they're going to benefit; no, not the rioters, but the ones helping the money-bags funding it. People need to relearn what communists and fascists do. I mean, we could have a debate if we're already there...because all the power is being bought and paid for through Congress - completely subverting what makes the USA a consitutional republic. (GOP/DEM(COM)/Indepenents/etc) are all so easily corrupted it really makes one take pause and ask if everybody is this corrupt.

a good question. we know that once Hitler and Stalin got total control they eliminated their initial supporters. Ho did the same thing. they ones pushing this and bankrolling it will go down hard if the lt succeeds. ignore hist,then watch it repeat.

Can’t remember if it’s Methodist or Congregational church that’s all in on this stuff. Lesbians spreading the word of God. Gays and trannies embraced.

Its a fucked up world and someone will be punished in the end according to the thick book.
This is exactly what I was going to post. Exactly WHAT church is this?? It makes a big difference, because there are some real kook, non-Christian churches out there that are all-in on this crap.

Figured out what us 2020RF Springfield owners need to do to fix them.

So I decided to play with a Springfield 2020 RF to see if they are really as bad as they say they are......Mine sucked bad. Shot almost 5" at 100 yards.

So I tried to see what I could do to make it better. There was a thread here asking about barrel and I decided not to clutter that thread up and just start a separate one.

I did end up getting mine to shoot fairly well.
