    Badger M5 - AI .223 mag vs Accurate Mag

    The AI .223 mags are functional but loose in my mini chassis DBM. Do the Accurate Mag .223 mags fit better? Worse? No difference?

    Manners Stock Bolt Handle Notch Rubbing

    I just unwrapped my new Manners T5A Mini Chassis. It's awesome, however my 700 bolt handle is rubbing on the back edge of the bolt handle notch on the stock. In fact it's rubbing so much that it's will wear the edge of the stock if I continue to cycle the bolt anymore. I'm not keen on carving...

    Gunsmithing 300 Blackout Magazine Follower

    Can someone confirm for me that a magazine follower from a Rem 700 300 Blackout is the same follower as the .223? I called Remington, but they could not confirm.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig Magazine Cracking

    A neighboring agency alerted us to a problem they discoverd with the lips(that hold the floorplate on)on the bottom of their 226 magazines cracking. As a result, we checked ours and found SEVERAL that were cracked. All of the cracks were on the left rear corner. They are difficult to see at...

    Rifle Scopes ADM Recon Ring Screws?

    I got a new American Defense Mfg. Recon mount yesterday and noticed that the rings have two top screws. Every one of them that I've seen has three top screws. Is this an early version? New version? Just curious.

    Multicam Polaris

    VC Finishes just completed the "Hydro-dipping" on the body panels, on my 2010 Polaris Sportsman 850 XP, in Multicam. They do good work and I recommend them for any camo or other water transfer finishing needs.

    Gunsmithing Sure Cycle Recoil Spring

    Anyone have any expirience with the Sure Cycle stainless steel recoil spring systems? I was looking at one for an older H&K Benelli M1 Super 90.

    Won't read another gun magazine!

    Has anyone ever seen a bad review of a gun in a gun magazine? A recent Gun Digest listed the handgun bayonet as one of the "Must Have" gun accessories for 2010. Wasting my money.

    Gunsmithing Kampfeld Custom

    If anyone is in need of a quality gunsmith in Michigan, I would highly recommend Kampfeld Custom in Clinton. I recently decided on having my bolt fluted and he was the first to pop up on my Google search. I was excited to see he was only a couple hours away and decided that a face to face was in...

    Hunting & Fishing Anyone Using A Vinci?

    Just wondering if anyone out there is using a Benelli Vinci. I was thinking of picking up another SBE II and saw a Vinci sitting next to it. It looks ridiculous, but I have to admit, it feels nicer against my shoulder than the SBE II.

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon ACOG TA648

    Does anyone know what the difference is between the ACOG TA648(.223) and the TA648 Machine Gun Optic, other then the rail on top? What I was wondering was why is it a "Machine Gun Optic"?

    Gunsmithing Cerakote Over Cerakote

    Once something is Cerakoted, can you "Re-Cerakote" it? Can you re-apply a dirrerent color? Can you touch up areas? Do you have to remove it before re-applying?

    Gunsmithing Badger M5 Torque

    I tried multiple searches to find the recommended torque spec for a Badger M5 on a McMillan, but only found one posts that recommended "53 in. pounds" and "60 in. pounds". Can someone assist? It's pillar bedded if that changes anything.

    Range Report 5R Velocity Link?

    Could someone help me with the link that lists muzzle velocities for a Rem 700 5R using Federal 168 GM? I did a search, but can't find it. It had several posts with chrono results. Or, if anyone could throw a few my way.

    Suppressors Who'd a Thought You Couldn't find J-Frames?

    It seems that everytime I decide I want something, I can't find it and if i'm not looking for something, I see them all over. I decided to pick up another J frame recently after selling one years ago. Think I could find one locally? OK...I can somewhat understand the run on black guns, but S&W...

    Gunsmithing Badger M5 Screw Problem

    I purchased a new Badger M5 from another member who never installed it. I noticed when I tried to mount it that the rear torx bolt was way too long (2"). The front one fits fine. I am fairly confident that these were the ones that originally came from Badger. Could it be just a mix up or am I...

    Finally Got A Garand

    For years I have been kicking around the idea of buying a Garand, but kept putting it off. A relative passed away recently who had an extensive gun collection(quite a story in itself...more on that on a later date) I was given an oppourtunity to pick two of the guns for next to nothing. Out of...
