    Another bolt knob

    I think its a great mod, because you can still grind it off and then grind down the handle and thread it. Good job! Will

    Gunsmithing Threaded my bolt

    Thread Hijack: What is starting ballpark for such a machine that you describe? Or is it a business machine? Is there such a thing as a "starter CNC" that is worth a hoot? Curious. ~Will

    Hello, I have an AICS 1.5 with the Victor Skins on it & V2 rear skins. ( Thanks VICTOR CO ! ) I want to use a monopod and all I am seeing is the ACCU-SHOT BT-08. Is there anything else out there? ~Will

    Gunsmithing Threaded my bolt

    Very nice. Perhaps a post in the D.I.Y. section too! I just grossly cut/ground mine down with an angle grinder, then finished grinding with a dremel and threaded with a die. Worked good 'nuff for me for what I have. Not knocking your method AT ALL! I would've used a lathe if I had...

    Level Indicators - Any recommendations?

    I have a USO Anti-Cant I picked up here in the Post Exchange. While mounting & leveling my scope I used a back-up: Cross Check Level Bought that thing for $0.79 popped out both levels, used one on top of the top knob and other silicone into place on the back of the rail. Worked so good I am...

    Another DIY Remington 700 Bolt Knob Install (Pic Heavy)

    You guys are an inspiration for perspiration! I decided to do my own bolt as well! It is a Sendero Rem 700 in Stainless (magnetic stainless though!) and went very well. I used a stainless bolt handle and it turned out rather nice, also with the pride of DIY! I did have a back-up plan...

    Gunsmithing Loaded round stuck in 338

    Just shows more than one way to skin a cat. "Stuck Round Procedures" is an EOD drill for larger caliber HIGH EXPLOSIVE projectiles (all other rounds are the armorers problem!) I have seen a field freezing technique work before on a 155. Generally, its explosively driven water pressure though...

    Please explain .22 hoarding to me????

    CAL ranch here in Utah was running a special on a .22 rifle & .22 ammo combo deal. Buy a Marlin or other rifle (not a Ruger 10/22) and get 1400 rounds of .22 for free. (Its actually included with the price that is bumped up). Some guys went in all around the state & bought up the rifle and...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Recommendation on a HK P30?

    Trigger is poor. A lot of improvements in that to be made - ALSO at a big price! Not a lot of folks out there doing H&K P30 action work, so its expensive (like everything for H&K) ~Will

    Please explain .22 hoarding to me????

    Its called "BOOTY" for the person who comes across their backpack! ;) "Zombies". Zombies like The Walking Dead or Zombies like I Am Legend? .22 is a plinker or small game round. If its all I had, I would still look for a slingshot for some real "knockdown power" :D The buying panic...

    Winter Shell - to ski in

    We had the same gear in 1990/1991 at Cold Weather Instructor Course at Camp Ripley Minnesota. Worked for me down to -30 F, pulling an ahkio sled during the day and sleeping in improvised shelters at night! Some folks cannot wear wool though... I love the stuff. Keeps you warm even when wet...

    Maggie’s Motivational Pic Thread v2.0 - - New Rules - See Post #1

    The supposed back story on this is that the 'slap charge' diversionary device broke through the window and landed inside the bus and counter-charged the 'IED' (Bomb) that was inside the bus for the teams Bomb Tech to disassemble. Never got a report on casualties - but - that HAD to have messed...

    Winter Shell - to ski in

    Some really good comments here in many of these posts. I will add that a powder skirt is more than used for powder, it is a great baffle to keep air from getting in your jacket on a run or on the lift. Also, are you a name brand guy? For ski gear, I never pay retail, and I generally buy used...

    Gunsmithing PTG Bolt Advice

    Woman accidentally shoots herself with 500S&W, REALLY?

    I disagree. I think one of the major fundamentals of firearm safety is KNOW THE HAZARDS and TAKING APPROPRIATE CONTROLS for the HAZARDS. For instance, if a person is handed a weapon they know NOTHING about, it would be fundamental to give them some training on it by a COMPETENT instructor...

    Maggie’s What does a tattoo say about you?

    Whuut? :confused: I don't care about other countries jack holes who call themselves Explosive Ordnance Disposal. As an example the Philipinne Army/Air Force EOD has a whole lot of clowns running around with 5 pieces of EOD "Flair" worn about their person, including the cooks. Not a bit of...
