T3 TAC with a little tweeking.

I initially purchased a Mk23 when they first came out and tried really hard to like it. It is bolshy, not particularly well balanced and well, 'bolshy' best describes my experience with it. I do have large hands, but even so, I found the pistol somewhat cumbersome, even though it was quite...

WWI 1911's and accoutrements were my specific area of focus. The WW2 stuff was just trading fodder for me. Part of my collection before the great divorce of 2010...

the seam, if there is one, will run vertically down the back of the magazine. I had to go back through another forum, but I think the spot welded ones are post-war commercial. Here's a link to some similiar to yours. Seriously.... WWI 1911 magazines?

Can't tell you what they are, but I can tell you what they aren't. All WW2 contract magazines will be maker marked on the base lip with the exception of Singer and Colt. However, Singer magazines will have deeply swedged pins, not spot welds. Colt Magazines will be pinned. Singer Magazines...

I've only had to use Leupold's customer service once and it was so long ago it went here for warranty repair/upgrade: .... anyone else have one of these stickers on their Leupold Glass?

Thank you all for sharing your knowledge. I've gotten the CDI setup from CDI, went ahead on picked up a new bolt handle & shroud from Sigma Components and a recoil lug from Tikka Performance. When I pulled the gun apart and got looking at what I had to work with the factory Tactical stock...

The current M70 action is made by FNH. Between the excellence of the design and the high quality of the manufacturing, it's a safe bet my next build will be with this action, just as my last was. Timney is making a trigger to replace the M.O.A. trigger and claims have been made the 2 stage...

Over the weekend I acquired a T3 .308 Tactical. Although I'm really pleased with the rifle overall, I'd like a to change out the bottom metal and magazine for something more versatile. Anyone have any experience with CDI? And is this T3 a long or short action? Other recommendations...

I went through this confusion with their Coyote/Varmint. I'd like to be able to tell you with 100% certainty that it's going to be a wssm action, like mine ended up being, and save you the head ache of buying the wrong mount, but I can't. I'd recommend you wait until you get it in and measure...

That has been my experience as well, not only as a lever action, but as a rim fire they are difficult to better. Superb rifles.

Glen Nelson built super match.

I have a penchant for Mod.17, Mod.27 and J frames....

Walther KKJ

...and another vote for HK. The expert and tactical are 2 of my favorite .45's....
