    my gun just went in for surgery......

    Re: my gun just went in for surgery...... If you have never tried taking out the factory sako screws for the bipod mount then you don't know how tough that can be. Screw too hard, screws too soft, loctite, shallow slots. Also you didn't need to take the rifle out of the chassis, just take...

    Suppressors Tired of waiting to wait...

    Re: Tired of waiting to wait... I asked the exact same question to the ATF and their response was basically if you move to a different state while a form 4 is processing you have to cancel the app, transfer the suppressor to your new dealer in the state you moved to and then start over.

    Facebook IPO goes live Friday. Who's in?

    Gunsmithing talk about bad luck....

    Re: talk about bad luck.... You should be able to put some heat on the jp screw to get them out rather than trashing things. Are you sure the flash hides aren't pinned? If they aren't pinned then heat them too.
