    can I use the same bolt for 2 uppers???

    So I'm looking to buy or build another upper for my lr308, because I need a lightweight in the brush gun also. If I build an upper and use the bolt that I already have, I'll save a significant amount of money. Is it ok to just switch the bolt back and forth between the two uppers? Thanks

    how do you revive an old leather holster??

    So I found an old leather holster for my 1911, but it is very dry. The gun fits perfect, but sounds like rubbing against cardboard when putting it in. It is very rough on the inside. The belt loops and every part of the holster are just very dry and almost brittle, but not cracked. I was just...

    Help make up my mind... Commander or Gov't 1911

    After playing with my buddie's TLE II, I'm dead set on getting a 1911. I'm either going to get a Springfield loaded alloy frame 5'' or the Springfield champion 4" alloy frame. I've shot a Gov model, and really enjoy the recoil, the weight with the alloy frame doesn't bother me at all, and...

    do you crimp for a 308 semi auto?

    I've been hearing people say it's a must put some type of crimp on all rounds going through a semi-308 b/c when the bolt picks up a cartridge from the mag and slams it into the chamber, it can set the bullet back far enough to cause extreme pressure and possible chamber rupture. Others say don't...

    Holster Help! for Taurus revolvers

    Hey guys, I have a Taurus 627 4" and a 617 2". Both are .357 7-shot. I really enjoy shooting them, but don't very often since I can't find a quick convenient holster. I'd really like to get a fobus, or fobus type paddle holster, but to my knowledge, nobody makes one. Will these guns fit in a...

    am I measuring wrong?

    I just went to reload some .38spl and measured the bullets (jacked bullet with lead HP) that I am going to use, and every one of them measures .355. I've loaded these in the past, and they've shot fine, it's just that this is the first time i've bothered to measure them. I've got 5 100rd baggies...

    any Taurus OSS experiences out there?

    I've really been looking at this gun in 9mm since it's came out, buy can't seem to find anybody who has first, or even second hand experience with it. I will just be using it for some fun tactical backyard drills, and maybe even some local IDPA shoots. All reviews I've read prove that it's very...

    alternative site for gun classifieds

    Don't know if y'all have heard about this yet, but there is a website called swapgiant.com where you can sell firearms. The site is exactly like craigslist. You can search by state, and even by county. I believe it's fairly new, and hope it really takes off. Just thought I'd share the info

    MOA used for sighting in

    Ok, my question, (and first post) is.... When zeroing your scope at 100yd, approximately how many MOA up from the bottom of your elevation turret are you? I checked my Monarch on my 243, which has 36 MOA total adjustment. On a 0 MOA base, and Med rings, I am 15 moa from bottoming out, leaving...
