    Ah, cool. Link to the barrels I mentioned. MILITARY BARRELS - AK47 Replacement Barrels - Green Mountain Rifle Barrel Co.

    precision Ak???

    Not sure if serious... Especially after that Red Jacket comment. :D Edit: Sorry, I read that "constructive and mature" comment as sarcasm. Re-reading, it occurs to me that you may have been serious. I just don't think I'd put too much stock in anything Red Jacket did, esp. on the show.

    Check Green Mountain Rifle Barrel. Should have a few options for you.

    Winchester Super-X .22lr quality control

    Yikes. Haven't bought much recently, other than some subsonic Lapua that I wasn't real impressed with. Louder than what I recall for subsonic, I'll have to run some over a chronograph, sounded like a sonic crack. Also some kinda black coating that overlapped unevenly onto the brass. The bullets...

    Remington 700 pistol

    That's what I was thinking, at least the last ruling that I'd heard of. Haven't checked for a few minutes, it may have changed.

    Does anyone have expearence with shooting .270 win at long range?

    It's only hoarding until you need it. Then it's "being prepared". :)

    Does anyone have expearence with shooting .270 win at long range?

    Always a possibility, but I'm thinking 308 would fly off the shelf faster. More of a mainstream cartridge, IMO.

    Rifle Scopes Why are so many people selling their razor's?

    That depends, would I be the me working, or going out and having fun? Plus, as another mouth to feed, we'd probably both have to get jobs just to pay the bills. Grrr...no free rides with the law of unintended consequences.

    cut mosin barrel vs full length.

    Chop it to 16" and post action pics in fading light. :D

    Install flash hider - clamp on upper or barrel?

    The index pin. If you shear the index pin while torquing the barrel nut, either you're applying too much torque or the index pin was a flawed part to begin with. Likely both.

    Nosler's new 6.5 mm cartridge

    Gunsmithing Muzzle brake on small dia barrel

    Ought to work if the barrel is concentric around the bore, or close enough to true it up. Thread enough for a jam nut since there won't be much of a shoulder. And make sure he understands that it may not be pretty. Get it in writing.

    California- Judge requires Lowes to go Full Retard

    Wouldn't wanna be selling tires out there, next you'll have to carve "195 millimeter by 70 percent of 195 millimeter, radial construction, 14 inch rim" on the sides of all your 195/70R14s. And those aren't that big of a tire, you'll run out of room! Plus those are nominal sizes to begin with, so...

    California- Judge requires Lowes to go Full Retard

    The board was 2"x4" when it was liberated from the tree. Then it shrank as moisture left the fibers. I suppose they could shove it out the door without curing it, letting the consumer deal with the natural processes. Guess they should have stuck a label on the side, similar to "This coffee is...
