    New Finnish M28-76

    Tagged... Interested to see which chamber and bore you have. Also curious to see how it shoots. These are one of my favorites, they really are a nice rifle. I've never owned one but have had the opportunity to fire a friend's several times. Nice grab, definitely a keeper.

    White oak barrel vs ?

    I have assembled multiple ARs and just ran a go, no/go gauge set and called it good. On a carbine or SBR, I will check headspace and if it checks out, call it good. That being said, I would get the headspace bolt with the barrel if you don't have gauges to check it. I recommend having headspace...

    Why are gas gun more sensitive to firing pin size vs bolt gun?

    I had this problem recently on my 308 AR. I am already running the JP bolt and firing pin. I swapped the trigger out from a PNT to a RRA NM trigger. I also swapped a lighter hammer spring in along with the RRA set up. First time out I fired 3 shots, fourth was a FTF. I dropped the mag and...

    Upper receivers and accuracy?

    If your not really feeling the PSA upper, go ahead and upgrade it. I really like the Aero M4E1 receiver sets, the ones I've built on have had a good fit and finish. They seem to be a little more beefy too without adding too much weight. I would think that squaring the face of whatever upper...

    White oak barrel vs ?

    I own both, a Keystone 20" Service Rifle barrel and a White Oak 18" 6.8 SPC. Both are equally accurate in my opinion. I would say that the Keystone takes an edge on the WOA. But that's probably due more to the cartridges and length difference. I don't think you could go wrong either way. Both...

    Condor chest rigs

    Yea I agree here, Condor is really geared more toward airsoft boys... I've never owned any of it but I did watch one come apart on a guy and dump the ar500 plate onto the ground while he was throwing melons in the air and chopping at them with one of those "survival knives" you can get online or...

    22LR AR Build.

    Lol, yea those are basically my house shoes. But my damn feet get cold, lol. I take my work boots off on the porch and just slip these on til I get to the bathroom. I have heard those Keystone 22lr uppers are really good shooters. I have test fired this one just to function test, it runs...

    Covid Masks & Home invasion: BURGLAR KILLED, trying to rob a family during Quarantine

    Yea I can't imagine just opening my door, ever. I think some people become too comfortable and just open it out of habit. Assuming it will always be a friendly face on the other side. I also can't imagine anyone going through the junk and trash on garbage day here. I'm in the country, if...

    Gunsmithing What's my best course of action here? Howa bedding/DBM job.

    This^^^ Should be able to to trim it down so the mag clears the bolt. If there's not enough meat on the latch to trim then possibly make a new latch. I've never used PTG bottom metal on a Howa so I can't really picture how much room there is to work there. But I've done this on R700 bottom...

    What is the 5.56 M193 price today? Where will it be in one month?

    Right, lol... Nah they are all still factory sealed.

    What is the 5.56 M193 price today? Where will it be in one month?

    I'm with both of you... I have plenty but I could always use more and hate having to go fishing to find it. I've been doing the same as you bigfatcock. I got 9lbs of H4895, 4lbs of H4064 and 3lbs of Titegroup on Armslist today for $250. Amounts to about $16 and change per 1lb can. Couldn't pass...

    Lr-308 build gas and feeding issues

    Have you considered going with a heavier buffer and spring? May help balance it out without getting into the gas block... Heavy Buffers makes a heavy 308 DPMS carbine buffer. You could also switch to an A5 or Rifle length buffer tube to get more of a selection of buffers to choose from. I run...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Holsters!

    Not really anything fancy, but definitely functional. My FNS-40 in an AlienGear IWB holster made for small frame, G17/19 Glock. It's a perfect fit for my FN which literally goes everywhere I go. It rides great in and out of a vehicle. Once broken in it is one of the most comfortable rigs I've...

    Help a platform near virgin.

    Everyone has recommended pretty good offerings for the price range. You will get the best value out of assembling an upper, imo. They are pretty easy to build and nowadays even if you don't have the tools necessary to build one, you can usually find a friend locally who does or could probably...

    LOL @ big city people

    Acreage is nice but it's a lot of work to keep up, depending on the location I guess. My house is on a 4 acre plot. The farm is 4 tracts totalling 832 acres all together. It's basically a wildlife preserve surrounded by an actual state wildlife management area on 3 sides which is around 11,700...

    Is social distancing/quarantine being enforced by PD/sheriff in your AO?

    That's funny I left the Richmond VA area 14 years ago for exactly the same reason. I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

    Is social distancing/quarantine being enforced by PD/sheriff in your AO?

    Same here in WV... I'm driving an hour and a half one way to work every day and back. I haven't seen any sign of LE hassling anyone. The roads aren't nearly as busy as normal but still quite a few out and about. I've seen more DOT pulling semi's than anything else. The semi traffic seems to...

    Techniques for Improving Precision

    I second the dot drills. I had never used them until I found out about them here. It was a real eye opener for me as I had always shot groups also. Groups have their place, but the dot drills are really great practice. Here's one I use a lot: http://stormtactical.com/images/2009/SH_dot_drill.pdf
