IMR40.....Will these work? I can't seem to find any Ruger rings anywhere. And do you think these will go back to zero? I have never even seen Ruger rings to compare. http://www.ebay.com/itm/400487994278?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Duh..I forgot to put the link in.

Ok..I guess no one is home here!!:confused:

I would like to put a compact scope on my mini30, however it appears that if I put a rail on it, I won't be able to get the bolt out. Is this true? Does anyone know what king of high profile scope rings would work, where they would attach directly to the receiver, but yet me use the iron sights...

Thanks for that info. I emailed CMP and the rifle is indeed a collector grade CMP. I just need to send them $25.00 for the certificate. Thanks

Hello everyone. I'm not sure if this goes in this section, but it was the only one that seemed appropriate. I bought a very nice unmolested example of a HRA Garand. All marked parts are HRA. As near as I can tell all the unmarked parts appear to be HRA. Stock is HRA, and is as it came out of...

Thanks for the heads up. I'm not sure why I thought it was just the barrel. My understanding is that the Springfield's #800,000 and up were safe and the Rock Island # 286,506 were safe. Can you or anyone confirm this? Again Thanks John

While I am aware there were barrel temper problems with serial numbers lesss than 286,506 for the Rock Island 1903's. I'm looking at one that has a serial number of 227,105, BUT, it also has Barrel Marked SA Over a Flaming Bomb 2 - 42. Does this mean in your opinion that it was rebarreleld and...

I DID try to sight it in as I explained. Thanks for all your answers. I have the tools and skills to change it. Been doing gunsmithing, on a limited basis for over 37 years. I've never run into a pistol I couldn't sight in, in the field. The laser was just to confirm. Thanks again to all.

I appreciate your comments and am not trying to be argumentative, but when I say "it has worked well for me" I mean on ALL my other handguns I have used the laser bore sighter and the sights have lined up with the laser. When I have gone to the field a couple times I had to fine tune the sights...

RC, I'm using a Site-Lite SL-150 Ultra Mag Laser Boresighter. As per there instructions it works with handguns. I have also used it on a Colt Python, 1911, Beretta auto, and a few others. It has always worked well for me. My sights have always been aligned dead on the POI. I'm sighting in at...

I have a Model 29-2 that I have has for years but never shot. I decided I might take this deer hunting in Iowa instead of my slug gun for a change. When I went to the range to sight in the pistol, I find I am shooting low. Very low. When I try to adjust the the elevator screw up to bring the...

No pics. Before I could ask for any, he had already taken it to the gunsmith. Even though I told him if the ears on the receiver were not broken, I could repair it. All I asked was for him to refund me 20-30 bucks, or help pay part of the shipping.

The gun was put on GunBroker for a 1 day auction as a Buy Now for $650.00 plus shipping. Two hours after him listing it I saw it and purchased it. He called me within a few mins after the auction to touch base, and tell me he really needed the money.I payed him within an hour and sent my FFL by...

Nikdfish Nikdfish, Excuse my ignorance of the M1. I have many military rifles but no US rifles. So if this assembly you speak of is not available, would I most likely to be able to find the parts I need to fix it? Is any of it forged as part of the receiver, and if it isn't, what holds these...

Sorry... Your right. It's the rear site Thanks John
