    can i shoot my new ar barrel without any muzzle brake?

    couple wraps of electrical tape around the threads to protect them, but other than the possibility of dinging the threads if you bang them against something, you will not hurth anything by firing it without a muzzle device.

    Armorlube? NP3Plus

    I have an HK P7M8 that was NP3 coated a few years ago. thousands of rounds and it looks like the day it came back from Robar. I also had a sig 239 that was NP3 coated that I sold after a few years that still looked great. If you want a matte silver finish, there is nothing better than NP3 (or...

    Long Term Firearms Storage

    Can someone explain why you would wrap in paper if you are going to seal in a vacuum bag anyway? If its covered in oil, and you seal it, why bother? or is there some advantage I am missing over just a coat of oil and then vacuum bag it?

    Anybody paint a barrel?

    I've used the bake on spray paint from brownells on a couple stainless remingtons. The rifles already had a dull bead blasted finish, so I just sprayed them down with gunscrubber to get any oil and dirt off, then wipped down with denatured alcohol on a lint free cloth. Preheated in the oven to...

    suggestions for electronic ear muffs needed

    Peltors, i like the swat-tacs, expensive though. but the peltor 6 is a good muff that wont break the bank, and can be had with the normal over the head band or a behind the head/neck band. Any of the peltor models will serve your purpose and offer years of use. I had a pair of comtacs I used...

    Help searching for ear protection equipment with detailed NRR info??

    The best investment you can make for serious ear protection is a custom molded set of earplugs. If you use the foam type ear plugs, after a while you will find they irritate the ear canal. A good set of molded ear plugs are comfortable day after day for hours on end. If properly made, they will...

    Two of My Safes Broken Into - Getting a new Good One Now

    make sure you have that cabinet bolted down, and if possible, bolted through the wall behind it. A 300lb box is nothing and a single person with a hand truck and a crow bar will have that thing out of the house in less than 10 minutes. A safe and a steel box are two vastly different things...

    20ga for Duty

    the vast majority of departments are moving away from shotguns and going to carbines. Or at a minimum they are going to all slugs. With buckshot its too hard to account for every pellet when you pull the trigger. With that said, if I couldn't have a carbine, I would rather have a light load...

    Want an accurate rifle! M1a or???

    I have a SA M1A super match bedded into a McMillan stock. It has a Kreiger barrel and will hold 1 MOA if I sand bag it and take my time... I also have a POF 308 that will shoot MOA (5 shot groups at 200 yards) with WWB ammo and drop 168gr FGMM or BH into 3/4 MOA consistently after four or five...

    Does open carrying long guns really help persuade public opinions in a good way?

    The ones in civie's with slung AR's are the military people that are off duty. Israel has pretty restrictive gun laws. Not impossible, but people also don't have a safe full of guns at home. The reason you see so many people with slung rifles is most of the military people are required to have...

    Guns not wanted in "family-friendly" Target

    I am also waiting for the first time a small group of OCers gets held up by a couple of thugs and have their guns stolen... I would bet its already happened, but no one is going to post that up anywhere... 230lb "Mom" and the 18 year old daughter with the ARs across their backs probably aren't...

    Guns not wanted in "family-friendly" Target

    Maybe one of these days the open carry freedom fighters will learn they are never going to win against any corporation big or small by walking into the store with a slung rifle and scaring half of the other customers out the door... Worked out great with starbucks... Well maybe we should try...
