    Interest in a more vertical grip for J allen?

    I'm definitely in for a couple depending on how they turn out..... I'm ok with as close to 90* as you can get and prefer the palm shelf as well but it's not a requirement. My preference would be as soft a material as possible to match the OEM. i never chimed in on the linked thread but watched...

    Uncapped windage

    I prefer capped, The best real world scenario that I've encountered with a locking vs capped windage dial is that a couple times I've had the locking turrent disengage and spin randomly... This happened twice to me as I was hauling the rifle in a mobile gun rack on an ATV, must have somehow...

    Question on JAE chassis and Impact Action

    The earlier chassis definitely take some work with any action with a trigger hanger...... they made some running changes that accommodated clearance Later in production but it sounds like you have an early one..... I'm running an impact in a early JAE and I did have to mill out the top of the...

    The previous posts about the custom war grips made me smile..... I inherited a pair from my grandfather who was a B24 tailgunner. The first nude I ever saw as a young boy.... I realize now it was my grandmother!!

    Hog Saddle vs RRS quick release plat

    Direct mounting is the way to go for sure...... I started with a hog saddle and still have an RRS vice..... both are extra weight and slower to deploy than a direct mount..... it doesn't take much, I've made a bunch of my own for super cheap out of 1.5" aluminum, bought a 10' strip and outfitted...

    Scribe a witness mark on the barrel and action, I usually do it 6:00 underneath and onto the recoil lug prior to removal..... upon re-install simply torque it to where the scribed lines line up....it will be surprisingly consistent...... you can check it with the gauges but I'll bet you if it's...

    Extending barrel life?

    Personally I tried running a 6CM at a low node(110's at 2,950) and while accurate it didn't seem extend it much over 3050 but a bit better than 3,190! This was when the mass migration to the 6 BR variants began a couple years ago.... I even built a Dasher but ultimately I switched back to the...

    Gunsmithing Hinged Floor Plate conversion question

    Usually inletting for a DBM is a simple job but I'm guessing the carbon fiber stock is going to be your problem......... I tried opening up a barrel Channel on a carbon shelled stock and had lots of problems with chipping the surface layer. Seems to me that rifles selling point is the light...
