    KAC won a military contract

    In addition to the above, the buffer tubes are threaded 16 tpi, so every full rotation of the tube is 0.0625" of linear movement, that'd one U.S. quarter thickness per full rotation of the tube. IF there is available space between the buffer tube edge and its retaining pin for one more spin...

    Armorer's tools for AR-15

    Recently modified that above mentioned TechCo reaction block as it had no flexibility to adjust the width of various AR lower grip tang widths. This new Arizona Ranger M4 lower was cerakoted, undoubtedly the root cause for being a few thousandths out of spec., but surprised the tool jig...

    KAC won a military contract

    A few considerations: Measure your carrier length......should be >6.66". IF it is, the buffer retainer pin location could be out of specification, i.e. drilled too far rearward. Make sure that rifle-carbine receiver tubes have correct rifle-carbine buffer lengths. Gas Key-Lower Receiver...

    Browning BAR MK 2 Safari

    It's hard to tell from the photo, but I think I would try to remove the cam pin (firing pin will need to be removed if you can get to the retaining pin) and separate the Bolt from the Bolt Sleeve and see what's going on thereafter. I authored a a technical Manual on the BAR types 1&2 so I might...

    KAC won a military contract

    I have not done so yet. I have scoured the internet and have yet to find target examples beyond 200 meter for 14.5" ACC. I have Applied Ballistics hit-probability given the all the relevant data input, but it is still just a computer model output. My muzzle velocities are at 2400 fps and AB...

    KAC won a military contract

    First, thank you for your expertise contributing to the Hide. It seems almost impossible to find relevant longer down range target information on the KAC SBR's to judge whether the rifle-operator is getting the factory expectations from the platform. I have this SR-25 ACC 14.5" with minor...

    Best KelTec P32 pocket holster?

    The Elite Survival styles work really well; Safariland has some options as well that I use. Good trigger guard protection.

    Armorer's tools for AR-15

    Forward Controls has a nice jig to hold the gas block while inserting the roll pin with proper size punch.

    Armorer's tools for AR-15

    For trigger guard installations you can use small hardware store brass plumbing fittings or Delrin drilled with a few relief holes which essentially are small bench blocks, Grade 8 bolt / nut being adjustable in height ; tape protect the brass before using. Need a proper sized roll pin holder...

    Armorer's tools for AR-15

    I favor the design of MWI as well. Surprised KAC and Geissele did not incorporate the sail profile. Geissele's and TechCo's receiver extension blocks are pretty handy as well. The extension on the TechCo allows the lower to remain perfectly square with the receiver extension while tightening /...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PM II throw lever

    5 year old thread......statute of limitations. The shark profiles don't scratch anything. I like both the Switch Throw folders and the S&B's.

    Precision Rifle Gear Support Bag Seam Reinforcement

    Rather than use a simple over-and-over baseball styled stitching, for delicate tissues a vertical / or horizontal styled suture pattern is employed that distributes the suture (thread) tension over several holes and a greater surface area thus creating a stronger seam. Going much wider from the...

    .....and never the courtesy offered to acknowledge the thread is being hijacked down a different rabbit hole. Skip a post or two and you are lost forever. Folks start throwing personal F-bombs about others responses with no relevance to OP. That can be the Hide some days.

    Cleaning / Wife Out

    I was hoping for the OP to publicly air some saucey related Wife-out-the-door story of sort; guess it was "wipe-out" intended for the thread title.
