    Ok I have a poll question M1A or AR10 SASS

    Considering my profession I am biased towards the M14 for a few reasons but I appreciate a well built rifle more then any other. I believe, (which is a matter of personal opinion based on experience) that a well built M14 will out perform the M110. Yes, it is more costly and requires a bit more...

    Gunsmithing Stock Bedding?

    My vote is for the 1.5in barrel bed in front of the recoil lug (.308 bull barrel). In a matter of opinion of course, the reason to bed a stock is to create a tight syemtrical in relation to the contour/radius of the action to improve accuracy. Addtionally with that notion you would also use...

    Quantico built M40A1 value

    Gunsmithing 1911's??

    7.62_Reaper, First off I have to say that it is unfortunate that you have been plagued by a factory pistol and over the years the quality produced by factorys is diminishing. Time after time I get a customer with a new 1911 and there are mechanical issues that I need to workout. It is very...
