    Gunsmithing Renting a reamer?

    Re: Renting a reamer? Most all the smiths I know who are good at what they do won't loan out or rent out reamers. I doubt you are going to get a decent reamer on loan or by rental. I certainly would not loan or rent mine. Robert

    Headspacing AR

    Re: Headspacing AR I don't know how with the posting initially made anyone can in good conscience give advice to the poster to not worry about it and just go with what he gets for parts and not check the head space of the build up. Is it likely there will be a problem? No. But what are the...

    Satern Mfg AR Barrels any good?

    Re: Satern Mfg AR Barrels any good? Satern and PacNor are both premium barrel makers and they both make excellent barrels. To try to suggest one is better or worse than the other at this period of time would be more an exercise in subjectivity I think. As far as Novesky vs Lothar, please...

    Re: PMAG's Opinions on Feeding & Function Reading "between the lines" on this thread, it seems some have 100 % success with the 20 round PMAG's and some do not, and the same with the 30 round PMAG's. I am not sure why that is so, but it just means I need to test them out first and make sure...

    PMAG's Opinions on Feeding & Function

    Have not ever used PMAG's and just wanting to hear from people on their feeding and function. Generally "good to go" out of the wrapper or like the old days where some magazines were good and you kept them and some were not and you got rid of them? All experiences on this welcome. Robert

    grendel/lbc gas port?

    Re: grendel/lbc gas port? Just my opinion, but I would not run an 18" barrel with a standard length gas set up as there's too little barrel forward of the gas block in order to make it run with 100% reliability and consistency (i.e. you would need to port it with a big port, meaning too big)...
