    bcm charging handle issues pof

    I made an inexperienced idiot mistake when building my maten. I tested for function without a barrel installed (let the bolt slam home) and it slightly smashed and distorted the Mega handle to produce the same issue you describe. I bought a BCM handle to replace it and it works great. Not...

    Help with .936 Adjustable Gas Block

    I have the same dilemma. I measured my sws e1 opening with a tape measure and compared it to the slr drawing. It looks like it might fit with a tight squeeze. I think it will touch under sling pressure and vibration from firing. Does anyone use the SLR .936 block under a SWS E1?

    Custom 40X stock

    Re: Custom 40X stock Yes I made it for the owner of this rifle. I've been making McMillan styled stocks for 10/22's and MKII's for about a year and a half, but this was a special project. It's 3ply laminated red oak, grain filled with auto primer and painted ultra flat olive. The grip...

    Custom 40X stock

    One brave soul sent me his 40X along with an HS thumbhole stock that didn’t quite fit. My job was to make one that did fit and feel just like his HS. Here’s what I came up with: Thanks Herman! It should be at your door soon.

    "adult" air rifle

    Re: "adult" air rifle The Airforce Talon SS impresses me quite a bit. It'll drive a crossman premier .22 14.9gr pellet at about 850 fps within a nickle at 50yds. It'll take rabbits and squirrels out to about 75yds. The ss has a 18" barrel with a shroud covering about 6" that you can pack...

    Couple new Savage rimfires coming out...

    Re: Couple new Savage rimfires coming out... It definitely looks better in a small pic, but if the stock is the same plastic, it's only a little better. The beaver tail forend looks a little more substantial, but it still looks short and stubby for a real trainer. I'm anxious to hear the...

    wich 22lr to practice?

    Re: wich 22lr to practice? It depends on what you are practicing for. If you have a center fire and you are practicing marksmanship in order to shoot your center fire better, than pick one that resembles your center fire rig the closest. If you are just trying to practice shooting in...

    McMillan makes a ruger 10/22 stock???

    Re: McMillan makes a ruger 10/22 stock??? Pine is great for practice runs. You wouldn't want to use it as a full finished stock, but I use it alot for figuring out dimensions. It's dirt cheap, if not free, and easy on your tools. Once you know what what your doing at the pine's expense...
