    Removing case lube after full length resizing

    I owned and shot a benchrest 6mm-.284 for twenty years and always tumbled the cases twice; first after depriming to remove all the powder residue and again after resizing to remove the case lube. Recently someone told me there was no need to remove case lube as it doesn't have any adverse...

    Gunsmithing 1911 slide failure to lock open on an empty magazine - new cause

    Marines. No finesse at all.:) At first many folks don't realize that a 1911 is just a small machine and the parts that go into it don't require a wood rasp to fit.

    Gunsmithing 1911 slide failure to lock open on an empty magazine - new cause

    Gunsmithing 1911 slide failure to lock open on an empty magazine - new cause

    It's known by a number of names. I don't know off the top of my head if the ordnace blue prints actually assign it a name. I call it the disconnector rail because the disconnector contacts it. Without it the disconnector wouldn't be able do its job. Whatever you or I call it I think we both...
