Re: FM 3-22.10 A. The download requires DOD certs (cookie), which I do not have. Or B. It's something that's password protected... If you have a link to one that is not A or B, please share it. A couple of chapters only are on scribd and cannot be saved or downloaded by me, maybe...

Anybody know where a civilian can get a copy of FM 3-22.10? Or is it a controlled document?

Re: Teaching children to aim. I would say that it doesn't matter.

I'm looking for a decent laser that will mount on many different firearms and live for a while. Cheap is OK, as it doesn't really have to hold zero well or even adjust well. I want it to mount up to illustrate NPA, breathing, etc and to diagnose anticipating a shot and poor trigger control...

Re: Tried a new DA solver system Both are pretty interesting. I will be curious about the new options available for the FDAC since I just bought one. I have thought about "merging" a Mil-Dot master and something like these by making the Mil reading the range input...

If a person wrapped tape around a muzzle brake to cut down on blast when hunting, did they manufacture a suppressor? How do the brakes that can be closed fare in this? I was just noticing how much some brakes and monolithic cans are similar.

Re: How Many actual SHTF scenarrios in your lifetime? Unless you are so desperate that you have to eat them, why are you shooting stray dogs? A cat may go feral in a couple of weeks. Domestic dogs mostly just die or look for a new home in the amount of time that most SHTF scenarios mentioned...

Re: Remington 700 trigger issues. User SPROUT PMd me an idea that I tried. He mentioned that improper timing of the cocking piece can cause added friction in the trigger group if it is binding things up. About 10min with a dremel stone wheel and my diamond hone took .020" off of the sear...

Re: Remington 700 trigger issues. The safey detent ball can/does touch the trigger through the trigger housing plate. No wonder moving it can make the rifle fire.

Re: Remington 700 trigger issues. I reluctantly polished the engagement surfaces with my dremel and a bob with rouge. That seems to have done the trick, sort-of. The pull Weight is still a little over 4lb with minimum safe trigger return spring pressure, but it is smoother and much more...

Re: Remington 700 trigger issues. I should probably add that this is a 1999 vintage rifle that was very slightly (like 3 boxes) used when I got it. Will Remington sell just a sear safety cam and connector?

I've worked over a few 700 triggers and never had to do anything except scrape the goo off and tweak the screws to get a 2.5 to 3lb trigger that was smooth with little to no creep and broke like the over-used proverbial glass rod. Not this one. It has faught me the whole way. With 1/3rd to 1/2...
