    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    The gas block, origonaly a hex screw on, was milled out to accept pins, so the gas block should be spot on. Ive done it a few times before with other rifles, and never had any probems. I checked it again yesterday (Pulled out the pins and checked the allignment, and it seemed perfect. I dont...

    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    Alright guys, I just checked over the gas system again and its in perfect shape, so heres the plan. With the ejection being around the 5 o'clock, I was thinking of taking two of the weights out of my stock rifle buffer and trying again. Does everyone think that will be a good ammount of...

    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    now that you mentioned it... while I didnt pay attention to the pattern, I did notice much more rubbed off brass on my deflector than usual. Id say 5 o'clock.

    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    You hit it right on the head. The Sig 556 Mag rest release hole (or whatever you call it) is SLIGHTLY above the others. ( GI, Pmag, Sig 556) Probly a mm or two. Im still curious as to what this means and why it started. This is a rifle that would function with any clip you put in it...

    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    mc223: You know my first thought was that it was getting too much force from the buffer, but the buffer and buffer spring are both stock from a a2 stock kit. it just seems weird to me that the stock buffer system would be generating that much force. Also remember that it works great with my...

    Anyone seen this? (ar-15 problem)

    I should have taken some pics when I was just out there, but ill describe it the best I can. This is about where the bolt carrier gets stuck when it happens (Im just manualy holding it back in this pic) Its quite a ways forward, so the round is in the chamber itself. Also, it can take...

    quick refinishing question

    Hey guys. I've refinished quite a few guns before, but today I had an issue I've never had before and need some advice. I'm redoing an ak finish that is decent, but has quite a few storage scratches in places. So this morning I looked up the UPS tracking and my finish was coming in today. In...

    What should i look for in an ak-47

    Not hard at all. Just pop off the upper hand guards and there are usually two screws on the butt stock. Expensive can be tricky. You can get synthetic stock sets for pretty darn cheap, but some of the nicer finished wood stock sets can get up there. (300-400 for a nice custom one) But then...

    Guns and Ammo AK47 Issue

    I was in the former soviet union for 18 years of active service with both the 10th Special Forces and the corporations Russian intelligence unit. I can personally say that the Kalashnikov has saved my life numerous times. IMO, there's no better weapon for realistic long term operations. Of...
