    FBI Sniper Rifles

    What were the issues? Not being LE, I would have to assume there were add-ons not adopted and basic items not perfected/cleaned up?

    Found some stuff in my Grandpa’s garbage….

    If it has a slight radius it's for a Savage 1899/99. Flat is for a Marlin I believe.

    Stop everything you’re doing and read this. I have found the evidence to end the internet forever.

    Bender, If you can find this kind of stuff, you are looking way too hard in 'Don'tmatterland'.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns P320 ADs

    Again, I'm not really caring what the accusations are, I'm looking for the mechanical reasons it's happening.

    FBI Sniper Rifles

    Might have been a "B" model. For whatever reason, Colt never figured having a full length grip was necessary until they came out with the Target Model of the Woodsman. High Standard initially copied that in the "B", then figured making the butt more like a 1911 was the thing to do. A huge...

    So, was it the nine shot revolver or one of the ten shot semi-autos?

    What is this Hi Standard of Patty Hearsts that you speak of?

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Educate me on this 1911 - Camp Peary?

    I wouldn't steer clear of it, unless you saw something obvious. As a collector from it's time frame, that's a no-go as too many parts have been changed out. And, the texturing, while maybe helpful is another deduction to the price. As was mentioned above, it appears to be someones custom...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns P320 ADs

    One of Glocks big selling points was that it keeps firing. Unfortunately, it keeps firing when the gun is dirty and rounds aren’t seating in battery.

    I see your self-righteous company basher is working. However, do you know what is mechanically or operationally causing these accidental discharges?

    Sidearms & Scatterguns P320 ADs

    Sure seems to be a lot of room in that chamber side to side. As far as exploding goes, most cartridges will explode with that much of the case sticking out of the chamber. Do you know, or can you show, where normal headspace is supposed to be with that pistol? Bottom line here is I'm looking...

    Lets argue about the M24

    Yep, talked to a few of them on the phone. One prominent name there, told me it was bullshit that people were consistently shooting to a mile. WRONG! Because myself and several shooters did it. It wasn't the brainiacs at Crane who found A191 wasn't remaining stable in cold weather. It was a...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns P320 ADs

    Are the ones going off safetyless? As in a decocker? My CZ has that. The whole thing to me is if you cock it and it has reasonable trigger pull and isn't going off, something has to be tampered with for it to go off. The first lawsuits Sig faced were that it didn't pass the drop test at a...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns P320 ADs

    Probably already late to the game (question), but why am I all of a sudden hearing these are 'out of the blue' just discharging. I don't have a link but the latest was a female detective who bent over and the firearm discharged down her leg and through her foot. Anybody know anything more about...

    Lets argue about the M24

    Here's the problem. You have non-scientific/non shooting people making scientific and shooting decisions in the Army (military for that matter). You get a rifle built around a long action cartridge, then stuff a short cartridge in it. You get a bunch of fails. The short cartridges slide back...

    FN49 question

    I'd agree here. Mine was an 8mm and would fire Turk (hot!) all the way down to American (whimpy) 8mm. Definitely one of those rifles I wish I hadn't sold.

    Making 7mm-08 from 308 Lapua brass

    One of the things I did was NOT lube the necks (expander ball). That helped stretch the necks just a little. Taking you from 2.015" to 2.025". Which is like normally trimming back a case. With the extended distance of the case neck to the throat, you do cause a bit more wear in the throat...
