You may want to try a Chest type freezer and install a rotary or removable shelf system. Alot of people have old freezers in the basement and will give them away to get rid of them. Most of them come equiped with some sort of lock, to keep kids from falling in, that shouldnt be to hard to beef up.

On that thread I meant it "seems like it is the 5 or 6 shot" meaning it may be the 4 or 7. No need in picking someone's words apart to make your self seem smarter. Any way, problem solved, sorry for the wild goose chase. The extractor spring was weak causing a failure to extract. Put a new...

Yes the bolt locks back on both mags. Cartridge looks fine no marring. Unfired bullet after hand ejection is not showing signs of severe crowning. I down graded the mags to 20 rounds no problems. Then i fully loaded the mags and they jammed. Could the follower be riding at the wrong angle when...

I have an AR-15 and I have the Winchester and Marlin versions of a 30-30. If it came down to true survival I would pick my Mossberg 500A. Have 28'' bird barrel for small game and slugster barrel for large game. At 20 yards anyone that can hold the gun up can defend themself with it. Put the...

The mags I am using are P mags it is occuring with both mags. It seems to occur more frequently with more shooting. It is ejecting the spent cartridge but it seems like the bolt is not traveling far enough to catch the next shell. No clue on material of firing pin, I am guessing titanium because...

It has an A2 upper. Haven't had the chance to go back to the range to check the mags. I was just wondering about the optics. Using Wolf ammo, does this ammo have a weak primer? Seems like my firing pin is knocking a hole in the primer instead of just denting it, Could this be part of the problem?

Off the topic of cycling The AR I bought has a 20" heavy barrel with free float. Currently it has two stage peep sights. It has a carry handle. What would be some good optics to go with on a "very limited budget"?

I am new to the AR-15 platform. Bought a new Double Star, Star 15 rifle, It will cycle a full mag, but when you put the second mag in it seems to jam after about 5 or 6 shots. An ideas what would cause this?

We ground the paint off the flash hider but couldnt find a pin. Any other ideas? On how to get it off. We have heated it to cherry red and still couldnt move it.

thanks

it appears to be threaded. but i dont have any pics

I have a Century Arms 91 Sporter. The muzzle flash hider is seized up. I can't get it to move. It is a cross drilled, 12 hole muzzle flash hider. Any ideal how i can get it off.

What is the best magazine to use in a SA ultra compact .45? The factory mags don't seem to feed correctly.

My wife asked me if I wanted a dremel or a gun. This is why I am posting this message I chose the gun :). Any ideal what a used one SA UC brings?

I recently bought a used Springfield Ultra Compact. It is in really good condition but it seems to have trouble feeding hollow point ammo. Any ideal how to remedy this problem. What is the going price on one of these handguns. Stainless steel, novak night sights, hogue wrap-around grips, 3.5...
