    Gunsmithing 300BLK misfires on CCI BR4 & Rem 7 1/2

    Have you tried the same loads in a different 300 Blackout rifle? Just to confirm it's the rifle and not the round? I ran into something that sounds similar to what you are experiencing...I worked up a single load to use in a 300 BO SBR AR and SBR T/C Contender and a SBR Rem 700 barreled by...

    Well that was dumb (Check that... I was dumb)

    This one does not. It's just as easy to assemble it in either orientation. Specs are: --AR Performance M-16 Carrier- NiB coated --AR performance NiB 6.8 9310 alloy enhanced bolt When I get back to the house I'm going to have to check out the other ARs to see if this is the exception...

    Well that was dumb (Check that... I was dumb)

    Discovered if you reassemble your AR (after cleaning) with the bold rotated 180 degrees the wrong way in the carrier it no workie so well. Also discovered it's a booger to clear the result of said cluster in the field in the pitch black after squeezing off the first round at a hog while night...

    Suppressors Mystery Suppressor

    What kind of paperwork accompanies it? I'm wading out into an area I know little about, so take what I'm saying with caution, but I believe LE organizations acquire NFA items with a form 5 or form 10. That should list the manufacturer and basic info. There's still a paper trail back to the...

    Suppressors Welding Titanium

    YES! That's the only personality this thread is missing... can we locate, un-ban and or release him from the dungeon that the SH gods hid him in? Separate note: 229 posts in and still spiraling downward... Impressive!

    Suppressors AAC's New Ti-RAID 30??

    User serviceable, all titanium, full auto rated, 30 cal can. Weighs 20+ ounces. $1,100.00. Swaps between direct threads and 90T Taper mount. Am I missing something? Who needs this? When would it be helpful to have a user serviceable 30 cal can? Seems heavy for titanium. Seems like in...

    Suppressors Best attachment for dedicated suppressor for sub gun

    3 lug has my vote. I've used them on several dedicated 9mm ARs. Work well. Solid, proven lockup with ability to quickly remove when needed.

    Suppressors Factory Subsonic .45-70?

    Possibly master of the obvious here, but... the 45-70 Whisper is a 45-70 Gov case with the straight wall neck cut back. I don't own one and don't have the dimensions, but have seen one and it's noticeably shorter than the parent case. I wouldn't think the jump to the lands would be good for...

    Night Vision ATN PS28 on MCM A5

    I did the same on one of my rifles. Just worked out better that way with the combination of optics I was using.

    How is czusa customer service

    I've had good luck/experience with them. I haven't had to send a firearm back for work. I've needed parts on several occasions... Dropped a pistol slide off the cleaning bench and bent the front night sight blade. Then another time I misplaced a set of scope rings for a 452 22 rifle. Both...

    Gunsmithing Open up barrel channel or rebarrel rifle?

    I've had "service" kind of work done by Manners twice. It was a couple weeks each time door-to-door. Call them to confirm, but my experience is they turn this kind of stuff pretty quick.

    Adjustable gas block

    Agreed/True, but my understanding of the SLR is that the design tries to minimize the fouling that gets to the moving parts and theoretically extends the service life before seizing up. The Seekins model that I was speaking of literally has a screw that threads through the block and depending...

    Adjustable gas block

    My first AGB was the Seekins model that has the screw adjustment and the second set screw to hold the first in place. I quickly replaced it as I found it to be a PITA to adjust and couldn't consistently get it back to a known point. Not a big deal if you're going to tune it an forget it, but...

    Gunsmithing Upgrade Extractor?

    Thank you Chad. Great info and insights as usual. I didn't even know dual ejectors were an option. I'll reach out mid-week to talk through and explore options. Thanks again.

    Gunsmithing Upgrade Extractor?

    Started off with a factory Remington 700 action. Bolt was set up (from the factory) for 300 blackout. These bolt faces have the extractor and ejector in slightly different places than a standard Remington .384. Supposedly this was to make ejection of the short stubby 300 Blackout case...

    They are up and running processing form 1s. I had them complete 2 separate form 1s for SBRs yesterday, they had all my information from a prior purchase. The whole process took less than 10 minutes. Docs were signed via electronic signature. My trustees just followed email links to do the...
