    Rifle Scopes Larue Acog RCO Mount

    Re: Larue Acog RCO Mount I have an ACOG TA01 with ARMS 40L flip-up rear sight and standard front post. I really like this setup... scope pops off in about two seconds, but is otherwise mounted very securely. The ARMS 40L's hardware is captive on little cables so it's "impossible" to lose a...

    Rifle Scopes What do you guys think of "binoscopes" for spottin

    LINK Interesting stuff. I've been wanting to build one of these since I was a kid. I've had the means (machine tools, funds) to do it for some time now but for some reason this little project just dawned on me yesterday. (Why buy one for $5k when you can build it yourself for $10k?)

    Suppressors Smallest and rarest of all .45 automatics.

    Re: Smallest and rarest of all .45 automatics. Fascinating. Was this some type of OSS gun? Ignoring the gun's rarity or history, I'd take one of those over a P7M8 any day. It looks really nicely made.

    Gunsmithing Bolt knob for Savage 10FCP

    Re: Bolt knob for Savage 10FCP I bought a knob from Brownell's, I believe they are selling the Sharpshooter Supply handle but it's not specifically stated on their website. Got mine mainly for looks. It works fine. I also machined the stock handle (on the mini mill) and installed a Badger...

    Gunsmithing Bedding jobs

    Re: Bedding jobs One top thing I haven't really seen discussed, is be absolutely sure to allow sufficient curing time before doing much handling of the epoxy bed. I had to do my first bedding job twice due to over-handling the job while the epoxy was still relatively soft, and it peeled away...

    Rifle Scopes eXplore optics

    Re: eXplore optics Same as BSA, Leapers, NCStar, et al. I've been to the factory several years ago. Let me tell you it is one nice factory. They have the equipment but the engineers and assemblers would be considered grade-school here.

    Rifle Scopes Mounting a scope with torque drivers? Lapping???

    Re: Mounting a scope with torque drivers? Lapping??? As mentioned, get the Wheeler Engineering "FAT": http://www.midwayusa.com/Eproductpage.Exe/showproduct?saleitemid=718023 At $52 it's cheaper than just about any 1/4" torque wrench you can buy, and it works. That $52 buys you a lot of...

    Rifle Scopes Gotta axe you guys a quextjeon. Aluminum or steel?

    Re: Gotta axe you guys a quextjeon. Aluminum or steel? I don't see a problem using either, if the rings are decent quality. My rig is a Savage 10FP with a steel Badger 20 MOA base and Nightforce aluminum rings. I bedded the base and the rings required minimal reaming... actually I probably...

    Gunsmithing Gunsmith's Stereo Microscope...

    Re: Gunsmith's Stereo Microscope... I have an American Optical "Stereo Star." The boom is really quite a rigid piece of hardware; if you have access to machine tools you could build one yourself. If no machine tools, you might be able to hassle one together out of a drill press vise with...

    Suppressors SOG Knives

    Re: SOG Knives If you can, check out the sheath before you buy. I had a SOG Desert Dagger with a Kydex sheath a few years ago. The first thing I thought when opening the box was, wow, that sheath looks really poorly made. And it was. Flimsy,l and the blade wouldn't fit all the way in. It...

    Suppressors Mossberg looks like fun

    Re: Mossberg looks like fun Weird. Still, I'd rather see them experiment with something new rather than sit on their same old products for 20 years (which they seem to have been doing).

    Gunsmithing i assembled my first ar lower, ???'s

    Re: i assembled my first ar lower, ???'s I have the same setup (Stag lower/DPMS lower parts kit). If the pids slid right in, that just means you had the trigger and hammer perfectly aligned with the holes in the receiver. No big deal. The hammer spring will hold them firmly in place...

    el cheapo case spinner

    Re: el cheapo case spinner Dude, how ugly can you make a piece of home-brewed gear before you're too scared to share pics of it with others? ;-) LOL j/k... that's an inventive piece of workbench candy. But it's still ugly.

    Suppressors Any Nighthawk owners?

    Re: Any Nighthawk owners? I had a GRP. Real nice piece of gear!! But so expensive that I found myself actually afraid to use it anywhere but the range. After about a year I sold it for almost what I paid for it, then bought a Kimber Gold Combat II. The Kimber is a Corvette versus the GRP...

    Gunsmithing Shop Advice - Floor and weight distribution

    Re: Shop Advice - Floor and weight distribution In terms of pouring footings, I had this done at a shop once. We were working a contract machine job for NASA, and the shop had this weird slab that was about 1.5" thin in some spots. We didn't realize this until the new Swiss lathe was...

    Need help with H&S Stock

    Re: Need help with H&S Stock You can file the base of the stud (where it meets the stock) little by little until it lines up. It's an exacting process, but seriously will only take you about five minutes.
