Feasible to rebarrel?

Do you know who that is??

You’re a complete fucking moron.
I do and wasn’t being an ass but when reading that it’s what I saw.
Do tell. I am all ears.

CNC or manual the reality of manufacturing stays the same. When you are cutting to a number.......you have to A. choose a number to encompass 99% of the variation in the action set (ALL prefittable actions have by the way)......or B. run "tighter" fitment numbers and risk encompassing less of the pool of actions out there. It really is a juggling act between producing a part to the best of your ability while also giving the customer a trouble-free purchasing experience.

Some shops take more risk with customer experience. I personally lose sleep when a customer has to send something back for an error on my part..........I do everything in my power to minimize that risk.

Just that people have messed with their actions, bulging chambers, sloppy fit, people changing the action etc. Can they happen? Sure but it’s far from the norm if someone uses a prefit barrel from a good company and a good action.

People on this site are not BR guys but like very accurate rifles. The prefit barrels I have gotten from Josh and used on multiple actions aren’t far off when shooting out at long range. I’d love to give it to a BR guy and let him do his overly anal work on loads and range set up and see what they can do with it but for my uses they are more than accurate enough. Not just accuracy but I measured the headspace on two 6 Creed barrels he made for me about 6 months apart and one for 110s and the other SAAMI and they are the same. The brass is interchangeable between the two. I don’t need anymore than that.

If people want to send their actions off and get a barrel installed then they can have at it. I am sure you will never go out of business with that as people always need good barrel installs when they cant or don’t want to do it. I was a little hesitant at first but after doing it I won’t be sending an action out ever again as long as I have actions that take prefits.

Well dang! I’m getting nervous about the whole thing now…

Don’t be.

Sidearms & Scatterguns Semi drop holster

I’m looking for a retention holster with just enough drop to clear the belt on a backpack. This is for hunting. I don’t really want to go full drop leg with a strap. Pistol is a Glock 17, it will have a red dot.

So far the only thing I’ve found is the G-code XSR holster with the GCA30 RTI Mount. Does anyone have experience with this combination?

I’m also open to other suggestions.

Thanks.

Trump wants Bagram back.

From wheels up or first knees in the breeze
First knees.


We do not need to occupy an air base in a shit hole. We need to stop the endless wars.

I am generally with you. I would make an exception for Bagram. Until you stand on the ground there you don't get it.

Well.....Bye Jimmy Kimmel

The Government (fcc) threatening them, to make this happen, is an affront to free speech.

There, I said it.

The FCC didn't take him off the air or fine them, the network itself is giving him a time out to save some face. The FCC goes after broadcasters all the time, awhile ago they had a huge bunch of fines because of nudity or something, other times it's swear words or advertising during certain hours whatever.

TBH I think the FCC should flex its muscles more often. Too much stupid ugly shit on the air these days.

Accuracy International Picture Thread

You changed your “tuning fork” so to speak. Caused stress to the action that initially wasn’t there. No different that removing a stock on a non bedded factory rifle like a savage or rem 700 which can change not only POI but accuracy as well

I blue loctited my action screws on my ATX when I had it. One screw was loose of the 4 that hold the action to the upper portion of the chassis. There was a few people who had action screws loosening up. I think the ATXC has 5 screws like the AXSR. My ATX had 4 and the chassis was very thin where it mounted together on the action

There is some play in that area. I actually wanted to bond mine but was talked out of it by a very well known guy on here due to the fact the chassis just wasn’t thick enough to bond in that area and could cause issues if you put the spacers in there. He suggested the blue loctite as a fix.

The ATX I think only torqued to 35 inch lbs (may be wrong) but that isn’t much. Not sure what your AXSR is but I think it’s a lot more if memory serves me right

After seeing the design and screws able to loosen up I went back to another AT rifle as I wanted the bonded action. The AXMC is bonded as well and won’t come loose either.

Not saying the AXSR will come loose. But if you broke the rifle down when new and torqued everything right away you likely make it more repeatable in the future when you break down and retorque it.
I will always be an AI luddite.

Bonded action gang.

Lots of assumptions in there.

Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

That doesn't bother me at all! Funny, I am reminded of this Bugs Bunny Cartoon called "Knight-Mare Hare." Here's a clip from it (Not sure if the dialogue at hand is in it but....)...

Login to view embedded media
The critical dialogue being the list of Bugs' friends in this dialogue....

Knight: "I naive, am Sir O of K, Earl of Watercress, 'Sir-O-Sis of the Liver,' Knight of the Garter (points to his leg showing a strap), and Baron of Worstershcistershistershtiershire,,,"

Bugs: Really? Well, look pressure cooker, I bet you know a lot of my friends, like "Duke of Ellington," "Count of Basie," "Earl of Hines," "Cab of Calloway," "Satchmo of Armstrong....

Knight: "Upstarts and Rouges.... never hear of them!"

Bugs: "ROUGES EH? UPSTARTS EH? LOOK, Sir Rubber Figs... Don't go around insulting my friends. Or i shall get me a can opener and open thee up like a can of SOLID---PACKED---TOMAHHTOES!"

Intentional or not, Bugs was making quite the profound civil rights/DEI statement!
Disney was very avante garde in the 50s. very anti gun and very,very anti hunting. Disney films have over time moved into the hard lt very PC world. the narratives are always lies and fabrications.
unfortunately successful in propagandizing several generations before they grew old enough to think critically. of course their public school teachers were feeding into the same things,as we well know. guess you approve?
