    Single load mag for AICS

    Rem700 firing pin does not lock back

    I ran into an issue at a match today with my Remington 700 when I cycle the bolt quickly - the next round is fed correctly into the chamber but the firing pin does not lock back - the firing pin is down on a loaded round so I must recock the firing pin to fire. I use an old style factory...

    H&R M12 stock source?

    I'm looking for a spare H&R M12 stock, either in the original profile or in a target/3P configuration. Many years ago I bought an M12 from the CMP for my son but the standard stock is still too long for him to shoot prone and sitting positions. I'd like to get a stock that I can cut without...

    building an M1917 sniper rifle

    this is my first thoughts on building up an M1917 with period glass. it's not quite what i'd consider a cohesive plan, yet, tho, so i'd like to get some input from the hide experts. i know that there were no historical M1917 sniper rifles. there were some prototypes built designated M1918...
