    Cratered and blown primers with Black Hills ammo in an AI MKI?

    Sbr engraving please make this a sticky so all the people can be informed

    ATF opinion letters change often are are not legally binding. Federal firearm regulations change much less often and are the law. Play it safe and follow the law. An ATF letter won't get you out of handcuffs or pay your legal fees.

    Rifle Scopes What is the latest on Premier Reticles?

    Lube a bunch of brass for resizing????

    Double Zipper Ziplock and Dillon lube... (I know I'm not the only one who has had the bag come open) :) Been using both for over 15 years without a problem. The only dents I have ever gotten were from stray peices of walnut.

    Up to Jan-Feb, they were taking up to 8 months. With the addition of the document reviewers, they have cut it down to 6 months.

    Suppressors Selling a Suppressor to an Out-Of-State Private Party.

    That's true. As an example, I frequently get departments wanting to trade me old silencers for new weapons. They are not worth paying the $200 tax stamp. I usually suggest they sell them to their officers and assist with the paperwork.

    Suppressors Amending a trust?

    You can amend the trust any time you like (Just not the name of the trust) and you dont need to send a copy of the amended trust to the ATF. The only time they need a copy is when you submit an F4.

    Can't bump the shoulder with Redding FL bushing die on a Dillon?

    FYI in case someone has the same problem. Decided to give the Redding full length Type S bushing die a try for .300wm. I am using a Dillon 650 and the die bottomed out before touching the neck. 5 minutes on a lathe and .004 off the bottom of the die and the problem was solved.

    Gunsmithing Looking for idea how to lift comb for SOPMOD stock

    Found another viable option as well. The Magpul CTR with the Larue RISR. http://www.laruetactical.com/larue-tactical-risr-ctr-combo The surface can still be built up with foam and allows clearance for the charging handle even when collapsed. http://youtu.be/-VVlRLM44LE
