    Gunsmithing AR10 Forward Assist Uppers

    Gunsmithing Melonite extending barrel life?

    Re: Melonite extending barrel life? Thanks Jeffvn, please post what you find. I agree that $150-200 is worth the extended life especially in something like a 7WSM. I have been told that the melonite treatment is too tough to machine without excessively wearing the tooling and therefore...

    Gunsmithing Melonite extending barrel life?

    Re: Newest .243 Win Build Maybe we can get a range report after the owner gets it. Have 2 6mm barrel blanks in the safe (1:7.5 and 1:8) that are talking to me every time I open it.

    Gunsmithing DD Ross trigger guard to BO M5 DBM

    From this thread: http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthre...0037#Post870037 It looks like a Badger M5 is slightly larger than the M4 and the stock should be inleted for the DBM in order for both to work. Anyone know how the DD Ross Trigger Guard / Floorplate sizes up to a Badger DBM for a Rem...

    Rifle Scopes DM optics needed

    Re: DM optics needed What optic would you be issued if / when you deployed? I'd look at the Trijicon TA-01, it is proven in a DM role and may be what you'd be given by the Army.
