    Mosin barrel shot out?

    Cheap is king at this stage of my life, lol. I'll be sure to check the action screws. I just thought it was odd that it was so all over the place when the last time I shot it was hitting very consistently. The bore does look worn so I thought that might be it.

    Want todays component prices to look REALLY bad? Oct 2000 MidwayUSA sale flyer...

    You guys aren't thinking about inflation. Assuming XX Item costs $34.00 in 2000, at 5% inflation, that same item would cost $61.04 in 2013. It's not as "good ol' day" as it was back then, but it's not so bad as you're thinking. With the exception of availability. Actual inflations...

    brass catcher

    Check out LonewoldUSMC's youtube channel. He did a review for one that he liked (there's also a review of one he didn't like). Iirc, it was around $60 and what I plan on using. Fixes to the top rail on the handguard.

    Mosin barrel shot out?

    I have a 1938 Tula 91/30 and took it to the range on Saturday. I've shot it before with good results, but Saturday, something was pretty off... I was maintaining the same hold at 100 yards shooting at 10" steel gongs. Some shots would hammer it just fine; others would be high right, then...

    I reaspect most LE, but this guy needs to be retired. *graphic warning*

    I'd say it was directed at the guy hoping the cop would "get ass cancer and die."

    New to reloading

    I like the Wilson trimmer with the micrometer. Very consistent as long as you're consistent with your pressure when turning the handle. The RCBS 5-0-5 scale is very good and accurate. Get some check weights to check whatever you do end up with. For case cleaning, look at the reloading...

    I reaspect most LE, but this guy needs to be retired. *graphic warning*

    This is stupid. The cop that shot the dog was not one of the two that provoked the incident. He was protecting himself and the two other LEOs present. What was he supposed to do at that point? He waited until the dog was actively attempting to bite at him. He didn't cause the situation and he...

    Banned Memories Greatest Hits

    Lol. I did tell him to delete it before a mod decided they shouldn't have had to. Unfortunate how bruised our egos can be when we're reprimanded online.

    2 AR15s won't cycle. Need Help please.

    Nevermind... wrong thought.

    2 AR15s won't cycle. Need Help please.

    Sounds like a too-heavy buffer. It's cycling enough to eject the spent cartridge, but not enough to strip the next round from the magazine. Also, you might try closing up your gas block and slowly opening it in the event it is cycling too fast (which I don't think). Just realized there's...

    If you could live any ware in the USA after Military retirement?

    This thread makes me sad. I've got a year left of college before I really start my career (Naval Architect), then 30 years or so in the industry before I can retire. I'm really drawn to the mountains up north, but genius me picked an industry that is predominantly attached to the ocean to...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Looking For A Carry Revolver

    Check out the S&W 340PD. Extremely light. Very-well suited to carry comfortably. These guns are not range toys; you're not going to be shooting hundred of rounds every weekend for the hell of it with it. Practice, certainly, but for this type of gun, comfort of shooting shouldn't really be a...

    Noob reloading - have a serious question about my 338 norma load. Gradious

    When you put the pan on the scale, make that the zero setting (zero it) so that it will weigh only the powder and have already compensated for the weight of the pan. A little confused as to your question. Your addition is accurate if that's what you're asking.

    Movie Theater Actor you hate . . . and that hatred is irrational, unreasonable, pointless.

    Impossible to like him after that role. Which he honestly played perfectly. Paul Walker. Because he is an absolute shit actor. Gene Hackman. I cannot stand watching him in any movie. The kid that plays Joffrey in Game of Thrones (Jack Gleeson... just looked it up). I'll never be able...

    Gunsmithing Cerakote in/around New Orleans, LA

    I appreciate it. Waiting on the SP3R to come in stock somewhere. That's the last piece and then it'll need to get coated. I'll let you know.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns M&Pc Daily Carry/IWB Issues

    Just to throw out another option on holsters: Check out the lowrider by RM holsters. It's currently what I use on my G19. This is after 3 crossbreeds. It's definitely a minimalist kydex holster, but, IMO is more comfortable than the crossbreed. Plus, it's a lot smaller and less cumbersom.

    Scratch one bad actor at point-blank range

    Just watched it. My hat is off to that LEO. Feel very sorry for the mother and the child. Horrifying.

    Mississippi Open Carry

    I'm all for open carry, we have it here in Louisiana. I am completely against the YouTube douchebags that video every encounter with a LEO and scream about their rights. I'd like to see them all get choke slammed. The general public normally only ever encounters firearms in negative...
