    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20 brass bulge fix

    "Support" varies w/ the aftermarket maker. You may have to try out one or two barrels before finding one that works in your gun. For my G20 with very hot handloads, I use the LWD stock length (4.6") barrel. Reliability has been excellent - no FTF, FTE, etc. That was after trying and...

    Not Socomxxx, but thanks for clarifying that, George. Again, looking forward to receiving my GAP-10.

    SPR rail length?

    My WOA SPR has an 18" SS barrel. I replaced the 12" DD quad rail that it originally had with a 12" PRI 3rd Gen FF tube. It has the full top rail @ 12 o'clock and the very short rails @ 3, 6, & 9 o'clock. This gives me all the rail I need without making the front end of the rifle feel like a...

    New Gap10...problem

    Is this his personal rifle or was he intending to deploy it on call-outs with his Dept.? Not that it matters, I guess, problems are still problems.

    Just curious, what lube do you use?

    Lightweight SPR style AR-15

    Well, on my WOA SPR, with 18" SS 1/7 twist barrel, it initially came with a 12" DD quad rail and a fixed A1-length stock. I replaced the quad rail with a 12" PRI 3rd Gen tube and ditched the A1 for a Magpul CTR/LT RISR cheekpiece combo. Replacing the quad rail, most of which was never used...

    New Gap10...problem

    That's my concern. I, like several other posters here, have a GAP-10 on order. It's not an inexpensive rifle. Although I'm not intending to run mine suppressed intially, I did order the Noveske switchblock. I had expected it would come with instructions as to the settings. Posts like...

    higher comb height for precision carbine, options please

    Will further the recommendations for choosing the CTR/RISR cheekpiece combo, which eliminates CH interference. It replaced the A1 fixed stock on my WOA 5.56mm SPR. The scope on this one is a Vortex PST 2.5-10x in an low AD mount. I run the CTR/RISR one notch out from fully collapsed, i.e...

    George, will you forgive me? GAP 10 breakin

    Nice groups. Glad to hear it's running w/o a hitch now. I've been following this and your other thread very closely, as I have a GAP-10 on order and was worried about having the reliability issue you described and then having to incur the expense and hassle of returning it to George and Co...

    Hope my WOA 18" upper shoots like this.

    Just a suggestion, but while the Vltor is a nice buttstock, you'll be able to place your eye at a more effective height with that scope, along w/ gaining a more consistent cheekweld, w/ something like the RISR cheekpiece on a CTR if you going to run a collapsible on a precision/varmit rig. On...

    1903A4 clone ...

    It may be some time before I can get back out to the range and provide an update. We've got another snow storm heading in w/ something called a "polar vortex" behind it. Also wanted to thank Kraig & Jim for their input! :cool:

    1903A4 clone ...

    Kraig - thanks for the information & comments. Yeah, the camo tape was just for looks, nothing broken on the front handguard, and the tape isn't wrapped so tight that it's affected accuracy (as far as I can tell anyway @ 100yds). Didn't know the Alaskan scope was now CMP "legal" for the...

    1903A4 clone ...

    Thanks! Will take pics of groups on the next outing, whenever the range thaws enough. In the early 2000s I was out @ Camp Perry just before the Nat'l Matches and picked up 2 cases (2000-rds) of 30.06 ammo. This was CMP fodder made here using L.C. brass, not the later Korean import stuff...

    1903A4 clone ...

    Had it for about a year and have put about 250-rds of ball and match-type 30'06 ammo through it. It has a period-correct 03A3 receiver, Redfield mount, rings and screws trigger guard, etc., (no ChiCom stuff). The local 03A4 guy that built it relates that the stock was one of five...

    Building my 1st AR15. SPR-ish gun. Update.. Looking for a trigger now?

    Thanks, Ben. Just a caution on the MOE. If you're going to run a collapsable stock AND a cheekpiece on it, you'll have to deal with charging handle interference when you retract it to load, or even just to lock the bolt back. LT's RISR is designed to reciprocate back as the CH is pulled...

    Cleaning with Gun Scrubber or brake cleaner. What do you think?

    Similar to what I was thinking ... At what point to do we pass the limits of effective cleaning and start treading into overcleaning our rifle and wasting time and/or the resources? Just askin', not arguin'.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 29

    Love mine - EDC. Love the 10mm cartridge as well. Slide was NP3-ed by Robar. Added fixed Trijicons and put Pierce's pinky-finger grip extensions on the magazines. Love my G20 too, but the G29 packs easier for EDC. In cold weather I'll rotate in the G20, or if I'm out hunting or hiking...

    Building my 1st AR15. SPR-ish gun. Update.. Looking for a trigger now?

    My SPR is a WOA upper receiver (came w/ a BCG) w/ WOA 18" 1/7 twist SS barrel mated w/ a PRI 3d GEN tube. FH is a ACC. Lower has a Geissele DMR trigger. Since this photo was taken @ a Precision Rifle class, I ditched the A2 stock for a collapsable using a CTR w/ LT RISR cheekpiece. Along w/...
