    Versa-Pod Series 8

    All steel US manufactured product was announced in January of 2010. Seems like 2 years is plenty of time to get a product into production if the company is committed to it. Its not like building a Joint Strike Fighter. Any G2 on whats really going on?

    Copper colored gas port deposits

    Just back from the aerial gunnery range. Crew chiefs are talking about copper colored deposits on the M240 gas pistons. Barracks lore is that the deposits are some carbon compound formed at high temp. The deposits are a bitch to remove. I've seen the same colored deposits on the adjustable...
