    Hi, just a simple question. Why are bolt action receivers and bolts so expensive? Why do they cost more than a barrel, and as much as a high end stock/chassis? From Impact, to Defiance, to BigHorn, Curtis Custom, and Lone Peak Arms. They are $1000 plus. Is it that it takes more complex...

    Noveske N4 Receiver Question

    I have an opportunity to possibly buy a Noveske N4 lower receiver for an AR15. The seller says this is a "B" series serial numbered unit, which is supposedly more rare, or valuable than the "E" series. Can anyone speak to that. I like Noveske lowers, but am not going to pay extra for the "B"...

    Rifle Scopes Flat top receiver & A2 stock ring height?

    Other than what's required to keep the objective clear of the rail, are there any other considerations I should be aware of when determining the proper ring height for a DPMS LR-308 with a flat top & A2 stock?

    Rifle Scopes Best method for aligning a base and receiver?

    After mounting my Stiller 20 MOA base to my Stiller TAC30 action, I added a pair of 34mm Seekins rings and a Premier 3-15x. The damn thing took almost 6 mils of windage to obtain a 100 meter zero! This is the most windage I've ever had to use, especially on a semi-custom receiver. I tried...

    Gunsmithing Rem 700 Who does a Side Receiver Bolt release?

    Just like the subject says. I want a Huber trigger, but I have a stock Rem 700 action. I'd like to know of any smiths that perform this modification. If I assume GAP, and APA (Jered) do this would I be correct?
