    Gunsmithing Manufacturer Useless on Nitriding

    Re: Manufacturer Useless on Nitriding There would be no way in Holy Hades that as a manufacturer of actions/barrels I would go for stuff being nitrided as you wish to do (or have done?). Firstoff, the material moving around during the process is a near certainty so all tight tolerance...

    What's the most reliable AR you've ever owned?

    Re: What's the most reliable AR you've ever owned? I said other. I've had a Colt and frankenguns. All shoot just fine. Even have a 5.45x39 M1Sales upper that went through like 1100 rounds, only issues were mag related. Did have an old Oly back in the day that would jam, but I didn't know...

    Gunsmithing Broke in .308 AR today

    Well, I broke in my DPMS pattern (24" non fluted bull barrel) AR today. Bagged, it shot ok, maybe 1-1.5" group at 100 yds with FGMM 168 gr. I was using an old Ruskii 4x scope though, so maybe some improvement there (it does track well though). It's been a loooooong time since I broke in a non...

    .308 Battle Rifle

    Re: .308 Battle Rifle I love my Garand, but I don't think it's the right answer. FAL all the way. If the fecal matter ever hits the air handling device, I will likely be found ready-to-go, dead with a pensive look on my face trying to figure out just which FAL(s) to bring along.

    Custom FAL

    Re: Custom FAL I've got an FAL I'm playing around to see what it'll do. It has shot wonderful groups, then not... so somewhat frustrating but it's a project so no biggie. For a time it was shooting typewriter groups left to right, think I got to the bottom of that (maybe). There is some...

    Re: Some hate mail for you killers... Teppo-ka, maybe you should introduce your bud to dear Vicki. Sounds like she needs to meet and spend some time with a cunning-linguist so she can relax....

    Gunsmithing AR Reliability type question

    Re: AR Reliability type question I have no issues with my AR's just was a question out of curiosity. I brain-faded the carrier key hitting the charging handle, but there's always piston uppers... The thought was to lighten the BCG assembly, provide more travel (and use it) to keep cycle...

    Gunsmithing AR Reliability type question

    Guys, I was reading a report from the 60's or whatever on the HK G3 a while back and something in the report raised a question. Basically the report said that one of the contributing factors to the HK's reliability was that the bolt group had a lot of available overtravel before the carrier...

    DPMS type 308 AR Question

    Re: DPMS type 308 AR Question I wanted to use the anti-rotation pins just as an added durability measure. Here's a pic (or link)of the lower: http://cmmginc.secure-mall.com/item/CMMG-MK-3-.308-Lower-1307 I've been reading up on the SR Gold trigger and am thinking about it... looks like it...

    SHTF rifle

    Re: SHTF rifle When the SHTF they will probably find me dead near the opened cases of myriad and sundry configurations of FAL because I took too long trying to pick which one to take with me. FAL, and you can build one for maybe a bit over $800

    DPMS type 308 AR Question

    Gents, I have a CMMG 308 AR lower (takes DPMS type mags), I am in the process of picking a trigger, and was going to use the KNS anti-rotation type hammer/trigger pins. Not sure if this will fit due to the proximity of an external radius near the hammer pin location. Do any of you have this...

    AR-10 Stock & Buffer Questions

    Re: AR-10 Stock & Buffer Questions I'd use the A2 stock, and adjust height of comb (I think correct term here, but not sure) and something like this: http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=5559/Product/AR_15_BUTTSTOCK_EXTENDER If longer length of pull needed. I'm pretty much in the same boat...
