    Redding Type S bushing question

    All of my Ti bushings ID measure .004 less than the size indicated on the bushing. I think it would be safe to assume that this is what the neck would measure after running them thru, including the brass spring back.

    The DPMS bolts have a taper on the lugs on the bolts, the barrel extensions have a corresponding taper also. The S&W bolts do not have any taper and are the same thickness from root to land. I don't have any before pics of the S&W bolts lugs. The S&W bolts also have a larger tail where they...

    The M&P can accept a DPMS pattern barrel from the after market if you want to mod the S&W proprietary bolt. The Bolt will need to have the lugs tapered from the root to the lands.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    Forget the extended slide stop, teach her to use the support hand or snag the sights to release slide. A weapon light is a bonus also, just remember a drawback is that the weapon is pointing at something you want to identify. Like ZLB said a 22lr conversion kit is great for low cost practice...

    Dillon 550b primer feeding question

    Re: Dillon 550b primer feeding question Sometimes mine does this and needs cleaning. Take apart the priming system and wipe the primer bar,plate under bar and the inside of the primer tower with a solvent. Giving the rod a little extra bend that actuates the primer bar helps also.
