    Stripped AR lower: where can I NOT send it?

    Re: Stripped AR lower: where can I NOT send it? It's just a boring old Bushmaster stripped lower. I'm still on the fence as to whether to sell it. Not looking to gouge anyone for sure. It's just been sitting around for years gathering dust.

    Stripped AR lower: where can I NOT send it?

    I'm considering auctioning a stripped AR lower that has been sitting around for years. I will of course send it to an FFL, but other than California are there other states or regions where I can not send it? NY, MD, MA, HI, IL, etc? Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Need help finding thread on aligning HDMR marks

    I thought I had this bookmarked. I've tried all kinds of search terms, but can't find it. IIRC, it was on the Hide, so hopefully I'm not going insane. Someone posted about how the factory talked them through aligning the hash marks on an HDMR turret when they don't quite index correctly...

    Couple of questions about new 700 LTR

    Re: Couple of questions about new 700 LTR Just a quick update. The LTR came back from Remington refinished. Not really much explanation on the work order, just a receiver that looks like it should. It took about 2 weeks after delivery to them. I'm happy with the results.

    Re: Couple of questions about new 700 LTR I contacted Remington, and it's going back to the mother ship. I'll post the results when it's back to me.

    Couple of questions about new 700 LTR

    Re: Couple of questions about new 700 LTR Well, I contacted Remington. When I got some oil on it, it was really noticeable. It didn't seem to retain oil as well in the affected areas either. I wonder if the metal was contaminated before the Parkerizing process... More pics in better light...

    Couple of questions about new 700 LTR

    Re: Couple of questions about new 700 LTR OK, one last question. I finished the first clean and lube and noticed some strange 'stains' on the action. I tried using some MPro-7 and a nylon brush, and also some RemOil and a nylon brush, but this stuff wouldn't come out. Has anyone seen...

    Couple of questions about new 700 LTR

    I just picked up a new .223 700 LTR. Remington LE's web site recommends cleaning the cosmoline off, spraying the parkerized parts until wet, and then drying it with a towel a little while later after it has soaked in. I initially just lightly oiled the barrel and action with MPro-7 oil while...

    Re: Scope for CZ 452 Silhouette I'm reviving a bit of an old post, but I was wondering if you ever found a silhouette-suitable scope with mil/mil reticle/turrets?
