So I bought a G23 Gen 4. It was $675. I bought it because I've really been wanting one and because with the chance of new legislation it might be the only one I could get. Problem, a G23 Gen 3 just came up for a whole lot less money at a dealer. If I'd waited the week I could have saved $170...

So I found out today that Lone Wolf is making semi-custom Glock frames. For the life of me though I can't figure out if these are heavier or lighter than the original Glock frames. Is there anyone here who has weighed a Glock (any Glock) with it's original frame vs. the Lone Wolf? I can't...

I think this is the right place for this thread, if not, sorry mods! Does anyone know where I can find patent information on firearms? Specifically the Bushmaster M17s?

Oh God please don't take away my primers! I've only 200 or so left!

Gun stores are running out of magazines. I can't even find old-school 20 round AR mags in KC right now. And ammo prices! I never thought I'd see .30 cent WOLF ammo. It isn't worth .30 cents! The whole cartridge itself probably cost the illiterate Russian peasant who made it five cents. I just...

I can't even find AR-15's sans for online ads. And the prices are getting crazy. Not crazy as in "gouging", but crazy as in "$1800 for a Carbon-15".

Hope they start making a C92 w/ a tact rail.

Yes, it was the buffer, no idea what gave me the thought that it's a "retainer". I've never actually fired the rifle yet, as you can guess it's because the bolt never went forward. When it first happened, I just scratched my head, dissembled the rifle, looked it over, reassembled it, and tried...

The buffer, no idea why I called it a retainer. Probably because I was also trying to get a hold of of the guy sold me the stock to see if he still had it somewhere.

For a week I've been trying to figure out why my bolt gets stuck to the rear. I've been going over every AR-15 guide on the web, scouring for that one bit of information I missed. For some reason the bolt was getting stuck in the tube (collapsible stock). Today, after maybe my third or four...

I'm getting really close to finishing my AR. I've got my lower assembled, a no-name flat-top AR upper I bought off armslist with the bolt and charging handle installed. All I'm missing are sights, barrel, gas block, and gas tube or gas piston (I really haven't decided, it may come down to...

From what I can tell they do the same thing only with a different method of attachment. Is there any real difference between a Pin-On Piston and a Clamp-On Piston for an AR-15? These for example: Pin-On Clamp-On Will one hold one longer than the other? Give more reliable functioning?

I've decided to use a bull barrel for my AR build. It's going to be a range rifle anyway. But I can't find an 18 inch bull barrel! On some youtube videos the 16-inch ones seem to have a lot of muzzle flash. I don't really like the awkwardness of the 20 inch barrels, so the 18's were my...

My cousin (who's an AK guy) smiled and told me not twenty minutes after my grandfather gifted me a DPMS lower that "Your going to freak when you see how much ammo costs". I brushed it off at the time, but now I am kind of scared. He showed me a bunch of sites to order .223 from, and he's...

I'm in Missouri, Excelsior Springs to be exact. I can legally own a full-fledged AR-15 here right? Also on something Sam1911 said, if I build with this lower, it can be transferred right? As in, I could let others shoot it when it's done? I don't intend to sell it.
