A gentleman by the name of Cody Wilson who owns a company named Defense Distributed, that also created the liberator 3D printed pistol, has designed and manufactured a mini-CNC to finish 80% lowers. They sold out quickly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwRtll3jjU4...

Encouragement: Not Always A Pat on the Back I had a great workout today, in fact, it was almost too good and got me too fired up. I try to avoid these workouts a lot because then I want to start to compete again…and I’m happy in my path right now not competing. Around Metroflex, at the gas...

Just watched this flick on Netflix. It's a candid interview of Donald Rumsfeld made into a documentary. Interesting watch and seeing how events unfold through the perception of a senior leader. He came off as a stand up guy although he described himself as "cruel and measured". Putting...

My gunsmith/buddy has some property and wanted to set up some reactive targets in the woods. The idea is as you walk through, you trigger motion sensors or laser sensors, and it releases the targets. I have the sensor system built and we are just using a remote for now. The targets were...

He talks about the future of Afghanistan and lessons learned from Iraq, Pakistan's role in supporting the Mujahideen against the Soviets, current state of US relationship with Pakistan, the future of nuclear profileration in the middle East, including the Saudi's relationship with the...

Right now, I'd say the biggest factor in my hold is how consistent I can be with putting tension on the rear bag. I use one of the pre-manufactured ones with the poly fill which is relatively light. If I do things right, i.e. am patient in getting NPOA and fully relaxed, things go well and...

Impulse got the best of me on the hunch that I could make this work, and I was not disappointed. 20 minutes of dremeling on some $30 air soft trigger from Hong Kong yielded the final product. The flat face lightens the trigger pull dramatically. It also breaks far into the pull, which is a...

This was in the last print edition of FP and they just put it online: The Social Laboratory It is hands down the most interesting article I've read in awhile. The shorty story is that a lot of domestic surveillance technologies are being developed/testbenched in Singapore, a country with a...

Long story short is I used the last bit of an old lot and went into a new lot of 8-1lbers. Powder is Varget. The old lot I was using was probably of a more recent manufacturer date than the lot I switched too. The old lot was averaging 2744 w/ a SD of 6. The new lot was averaging 2714 w/ a...

I just loaded about 150 rounds of .308 on this and thought I'd give a quick review. I only stopped because I switched lots of powder and want to shoot some to make sure everything is consistent before I load the rest. I picked up the Omega Auto Trickler on a whim after selling some old books...

It's probably been asked 100 times over, but I've seen a handful of guys posting original OCW targets and none posting OCW targets playing w/ OAL after choosing a charge weight. I have 2 rifles: .308 and .223 both shooting about 1/2 MOA consistently and the .308 is a little better than the...

I decided to try a brake on my AR but the crush washer that came with it doesn't look like it is going to work. It's a 3 port brake and when I tighten it down until where the brake contacts the washer, it's about a 1/4 turn past where it needs to be. I played with it and it doesn't look like any...

Does anybody have one of these? Is it a useful training aid? What's the trigger feel like? I've been getting more into USPSA and IDPA, and luckily there are a few active clubs within an hour from me, so I can compete at a minimum twice a month which is about all my schedule will...

If I order a base from seekins does it come with screws? I noticed they were selling base screws separately on their website and wondered if I need to order these or not. I've been dallying on getting a new rifle setup and the weather is rapidly improving.

Can someone please confirm this is the correct part: Sear Spring - Common Part (F17518) for the following trigger? I'm pretty sure the trigger is an older X-Mark based on the shape of the top part and that the bottom part has no externally available adjustments. The spring goes in...

I have a stock SD-AAC in .308 that I want to swap over to .223. I picked up another rifle in .308 and want to have this one for friends/girlfriend to play with and I want a .223 bolt action anyway. I'm also considering chopping the factory barrel down to minimum non-NFA length to have a shorty...

Does anybody have information or resources to better understand parallax? I get the principal, i.e. the goal is to set the reticle plane directly on top of the target plane. Considering all my scopes have about a half turn adjustment to account for I'd say focus/target planes from ~0 to...

Well, I was presented with an opportunity to buy a custom rifle at a firesale price and I ended up picking it up. I haven't got a change to shoot it yet and it won't be for another week as duty calls. I'm trying to identify components on it and most of it is straightforward. I hoping someone...

I met a gentleman whose selling an estate gun on behalf of the owner's wife. I'm going to look at the gun tomorrow evening, but I know the barrel is stamped Cactus Weapon Systems. I did some googling on older threads and it seems like the reputation of this shop is mixed. I'm not sure on the...
