    Glock / Barrel / Opinion of

    The barrel hood lugs need to be adjusted with a square file. Mark the lugs with Dykem or red sharpie, insert the barrel in the slide and use your thumb to push the barrel up into the breech until it is flush (if you can) ; remove the barrel and examine where the witness marks are on your Dykem...

    Precision Rifle Gear One Hundred Concepts Large Objective Scope Cap Feedback

    I have a bunch of ARD's and scope covers; favorite designs are Tenebraex and John Aadland's. I would like to see a hybrid of their design concepts wherein one does not need to screw the ARD into the scope threads that usually accommodate sunscreen extensions etc. The camera industry seems to...

    New Sniper Team, what ammo for LMT 308

    The documented average spiper engagement distance for U.S. law enforcement personnel is 50-55 yards. Why is employing extremely low drag (ELD) match grade ammunition even a consideration? Law enforcement studies have concerns of over-penetration with match grade ammunition at these distances...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns VP9 or P30?

    I have thousands of rounds through all of these. No issues of worry for any of them. The HKp30, Vp9, Walther PPQM2 and MP9 2.0 are virtual ergonomic clones, look past the hammer to snag on something and magazine release mechanisms. I prefer the paddle release. Safariland offered a special...

    Best hands on Gunsmithing School that also teaches machining?

    Armorer's tools for AR-15

    Musing on the lathe today. Fabricated a quick-reference guide gauge for AR carbine / rifle buffer spring lengths. I have observed some AR gunsmiths apply an adhesive measuring tape to the work bench, others take a yard stick for reference. Used 3/8" 6061 aluminum round stock to fabricate a 15"...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Springfield Hellcat Pro...Thoughts?

    I like the Hellcat. Installed an Apex trigger and Romeo Zero optic. Use a Safariland GLS holster. Very accurate @ 20 yards with a variety of ammo. The Hellcat profile is quite similar to a number of other small frames, a few to ponder and compare it with including double stack .357 Sig calibers.
