    Gunsmithing 280 AI build

    How come? If I understand right the M-16 extractor allows the case to pop out under less than vigorous bolt racking, right? Don't know about the safety, never handled a Winchester.

    Movie Theater Bradley Cooper's vow to American Sniper

    German, read the book. What happened was a mother and a kid went outside and the mom had a grenade and was about to engage troops on the road before she was stopped.

    Hunting & Fishing Montana Bob Marshall Wilderness Area early season rifle hunt

    That pic makes me miss Wyoming/Montana. Did some work in MT but mostly WY. Beautiful country.

    Hunting & Fishing Montana Bob Marshall Wilderness Area early season rifle hunt

    Uhhh... sorry, come again? No judgement passed here. I'm just saying the contrast of the multi-thousand dollar rifle and a cheap tent is an ironic image. As for the terrain, I am very familiar with the terrain. I was with the Forest Service in Wyoming doing trail work on the Wind River Range...

    Hunting & Fishing Montana Bob Marshall Wilderness Area early season rifle hunt

    The juxtaposition of multi-thousand dollar rifles with cheap-ass Walmart tents made me chuckle. Looks like a good time!

    Gunsmithing Still Own Your First Custom Build?

    Reluctantly here. Own it cause it's my first and only and am unable to afford something else at the moment. Looking to sell it once I acquire my next rifle though.

    Red Jacket. . .

    I'm a little surprised at how quickly you all are dropping the guilty verdict with two news articles (both of whom quote TMZ. TMZ! When did TMZ become a quotable news source?). We all know how biased the media is, and obviously (due to an ongoing investigation/court case) the full details have...

    LH Remington 700 Actions - Where to buy? Also: Custom Receivers?

    Thanks for the replies fellas! I like the idea of a custom action. Just to make sure I understand: Custom actions wouldn't need to be blueprinted and trued? Just install lug, trigger, barrel? They're also a copy of the Remington 700 and therefore compatible with Rem 700 parts...

    LH Remington 700 Actions - Where to buy? Also: Custom Receivers?

    I'm looking to buy some Remington actions in the near future, ideally before 2014 (CA long gun registration deadline). Brownells has a bunch, but all right handed :( Is there an online retailer who sells left handed Remington receivers? Or do I have to trawl Gunbroker, et. al. for cheap...
