    Gunsmithing Stripped Ruger 10/22 Receiver - Question about tapping.

    I stripped 3 of the mount holes in the top of my 10/22 receiver. One hole is stripped worse than the other two, but I think I stripped the other two to the point where they wont be secure for long. I am going to tap the holes to the next bigger size (from 6-48 to 8-40). I think it will...

    Anyone done business with Botach Tactical?

    I made an order with them yesterday. When I check the order status online, it doesn't show anything has been done. Will I get an email to confirm the order shipped, or will it just show up sometime next week? I see mixed reviews online - anyone have personal experience to share?

    "Smoothening" my bolt

    I have a Remington 700 SPS Tactical. Needless to say, I have not been happy with the durability of the finish. Besides the finish, the bolt is really gritty (has been since I got it two years ago). I was thinking of taking some high grit sand paper and carefully sanding off the grittiness...

    Rebluing 700p bolt???

    My bolt has gotten pretty rough looking over the years. I want to strip what is left of the bluing off and redo the bluing. Here are my questions - As long as I don't touch the lugs, my headspace won't be affected right? Or would it not even matter if I did blue the lugs because I am not...

    Recommend a carbine "discreet" case

    I need a soft case for my AR15. I want it to be as short as possible and at least somewhat discreet. For example, when I am carrying my AR out to my car from my apartment, I don't want someone (that doesn't know that type of case) knowing what I am carrying. Recommend something to me. I...

    How often do you clean your rifles?

    I have gotten in the habit of cleaning after every time I go to the range, but lately I have been reading that leaving some fouling in the bore can help accuracy. So what is the consensus on this? Also, would leaving some fouling in the bore increase chances of corrosion? I would think it...

    HELP!!! I F$#%*& Up big time!!!!

    I just got a new B&C BCS1000 to put on to my 700P. I put the stock on today and over-torqued it badly. I used a regular torque wrench (NOT the wheeler engineering FAT wrench) and I thought I torqued it for 60 in/lbs, but I guess I had a malfunction (whether it was mechanical or mental, I don't...

    Gunsmithing Cerakote on M&P .45 frame

    I am thinking about trying my hand with cerakote on my M&P .45 frame. I know on the slide media blasting is a must, but what about the polymer? Can I just degrease really well and go for it? Or do I need to do a light media blast on the polymer frame?
