I bought a Savage Axis a few years back for a project I just got started on. I pulled off the 30-06 barrel today in preparation to have the action trued and install a light Palma 8x57 barrel. When I broke the barrel nut loose, I noticed a bunch of tiny little round objects come out of the...

I need help possibly identifying this random detachable bottom metal I acquired years ago through some trades and what not. I do know its for a R700 footprint, the bolt centers line up with some factory bottom metals I have. Im looking to ID this thing because I want to send it off with a...

Scored a Sten MKII parts kit and uncut receiver tube with template. Oh, and 11 magazines and some old paperwork that apparently shipped with the kit.

I’ve got a pair of sordins incoming with the 6 pin downlead. I’m looking for an adapter that isn’t $100, but the ones I’m running into are for the u174 not the u94 (https://hobbsflyer.com/collections/cables-and-adapters/products/bose-a20-6-pin-lemo-to-u174-helicopter-plug-adapter). I know the...

I’m wondering what options are out there for a PTT that will wire into my Yaesu FT2D, and connect to my Bluetooth in ear protection buds? I’m thinking of going with the 3M TEP-100s or the Ottos. My real issue is finding a PTT button that will wire into the Yaesu and Bluetooth to my buds...

I'm looking at travelling with the family this August down to the Disneyland area. My father owns a timeshare for Lawaii Beach Resort that he can trade time around for us, but his RCI membership expired and I dont really want to fork over the $400 or so just to check to see that there is no...

I decided I wanted a different look for my $100 out the door Walmart special shotgun. Its a Stevens 320, 12gauge that is an exact and direct Chinese clone of the Winchester 1300/SXP. Its not nearly the same quality as the Winchesters but its also not bad for a Chinesium clone though either...

I'm adding a poll to determine whether or not my idea is crazy. Cabela's is running a sale on the Savage Axis XP, now normally I would turn my nose up at a rifle like this, but I have a bit of a hair up my ass lately to build an 8mm Mauser chambered pseudo budget precision hunting rifle. I...

Since it seems like there are so many threads lately just trying to bash the shit out of manufacturers lately, I figured I would have a go.. Just one problem. Timney's customer service was excellent. Specifically Megan Downey at Timney. I have an older Timney Elite that I bought circa 2008...

I've been wanting to blue the high-polished bolt on my 7mm Rem Mag VZ.24 Mauser project. I know that the bolts were typically surface hardened, and I don't want to mess with the temper, so I'm hesitant. I've seen examples of people hot-salt bluing M96 bolts and M98 bolts alike, but want to ask...

I have an Arduino project I'm working on for a steel target hit indicator. I know I can just buy a MagnetoSpeed T1000, but then I wouldn't have to stress and think, and I kinda hate myself, so here we are. I bought a SparkFun MicroPro, piezo vibration sensor, LED bulb, some 100ohm resistors...

Just finished the latest build. Big time budget build. Trued up Bergara B14 action, Factory Bergara Ridge 6.5 Creedmoor barrel, new precision ground .25” recoil lug, custom radial port brake, HMR stock, HMR bottom metal, Magpul bipod and Bushnell ET scope. Only thing I’m still waiting on is...

I'm wondering what the most common charge weight is around here for a 140gr class bullet (139, 140, 143) with H4350.. From my perusal and compilation over 40 previous posts that had good data, I'm seeing an average charge weight of 42.0gr. I'm now just trying to verify my data. Thanks. And...

Parler was scraped before it was removed.. Im guessing they will pass this data on to the authorities that are investigating so they can prove corroboration and pre-planning so they can add to the list of charges they are bringing against the people that went inside the Capital Building...

First time lapping lugs myself. Just wanted to check to make sure it looks like I have full engagement on both lugs and also ask if I should switch up to a jewelers rouge to polish the engagement surfaces a bit or just leave it be and let it self "polish"? Thanks for looking.

I’m leaning toward the dark grey/green, but I’m not 100% sure. going the cheap Krylon route for now. I will likely cerakote in the future. This is mostly a beat around hunting rifle.

I need to replace a recoil lug on my Bergara. The factory recoil lug is .220” thick. The only lugs I can find that are close are .228” thick. Will 8 thousandths fuck with my headspace enough for me to worry about it? I will be checking everything with go-no-go gauges. should I just go with...

Selling my RTS Varmint chassis (R700 footprint), all screws, rails, etc are included, as well as the recoil disk and the Magpul MIAD pistol grip (not shown in the photo). Gary sells these for $1050, I'm asking $800 OBO.. Chassis is in good condition with minor wear and tear from general use...

Wanting to build another rifle.. Help me out, am I forgetting anything?

I have a G4G19 and I recently put a Leupold DPP on along with some suppressor sights. I have a threaded barrel and may put a comp on at some point, and I run a Streamlight TLR1HL on the bottom of it. The holster I was using up until I put the DPP and sights on was a Safariland 6377, but the...
