I have a JP Eliminator comp on my LR308. Threads were cut perfectly, finger tight, no slop when installed. I put a little of the Brownell Comp Loc on like I use in my 1911 open guns for the comps. Normally a little propane heat and they spin right off. Tried to get the JP comp off with a...

Like I said, I hate to be a tool, but with the crazy prices going and me having a new Colt sitting in the safe, it's a hard decision to make. Now on one hand I fully realize the prices are way overboard, and I for one would never pay $2500 for an AR. But I wouldn't pay 15k for somebody to build...

A buddy of mine went to an estate sale a little while back and bid on some gun parts in a box, assorted loading stuff, old tools, stocks, barrels and the like. When he got home he found two suppressors. One for a .22 and one for a 9mm pistol. While not the suppressor type of guy, mostly just a...

I've been researching the smokeless muzzleloaders and wanted some pros and cons. One of the forums I looked at was talking about loads and such. One comment that was made concerned waiting between shots. One guy wrote that you have to wait 10 or 15 minutes between shots. Can somebody chime in...

I am currently doing some training in NC and there is a unit from Djibouti here getting some US training. When ever they go to the head they go into the stall with a couple of cups of water. I'm a college educated guy and looked on the net for practices concerning taking a smash and found some...

Just looking to hear some ideas from guys on what makes a gas gun really accurate. Do you think it just comes down to a good barrel and bolt fit? A good trigger and glass helps. By accurate I'm talking sub moa. Any thoughts on piston vs. gas?
