Well, I realize this is necro-posting, but this thread crossed my mind and I figured I should leave a cautionary tale behind about doing the job onesself, and a very strange technical question. This really is not a home job sort of deal, While I did solve the last round feed issue with 800 grit...

Magazine checks out, smooth as silk. Shell releases are in place and springy springy. Seems like the shell is getting kicked out of the tube and getting catching on the lifter, and stopping cold. Understood about the tools, and rivets. They are on the way. I'm going to see if I can...

Hi, i'm sorry if this has been covered, my search-fu turned up nothing on this particular problem... I have a hawk 982, the little chinese 870 that fires 2 3/4 and 3 inchers....but I broke my ejector spring cycling dummy rounds somehow...Sooo...which ejector spring? Will this...

I'd mostly concur with the above, however, nothing is perfect, and here are my devil`s advocate points: The factory sling mounts are...how to put it delicately....borderline worthless. (And also NOT included with your rifle!) I have absolutely zero doubts that should a situation become...

As a 6940 owner, the opportunity to have its bigger brother is appealing...enough to skip a LMT .308? Don't know...

Colt 6940 next to the bed, aimpoint and surefire ready to go. I have no children, women don't like me :neener: and anyone other than myself in this room had to have A: break and climb through a window, likely waking me up, or B: Break down several locked doors... Between the wake-up and the...

Had a bushmaster 16 inch A2 carbine, last time I took it out before I sold it I put 500 rounds of PMC through that tube pretty much as fast as I could pull the trigger and reload the one magazine I owned at the time.

Use it in my model 1 sales kitgun (20 inch, 5.56 CL) and my LE6940CK build (16 inch, 5.56 CL) ....M1S rifle had 3 torn off case rims in its first 500 rounds, so far that's the extent of my wolf-related problems.

Whats the expected price range? Is an elcan spectre DR an option? What about an ACOG or an Aimpoint with a magnifier on a flip mount?

I put together a M1S 20 inch A2 rifle kit, I made sure I picked a 5.56mm chamber rather than .223, and a chrome lining for the barrel, they sent me what I ordered fairly quickly and 2500 rounds of wolf later it broke all my expectations for a "cheap" AR15. During initial break in I had some...

I have searched the forum and either I have missed it or it has not been asked yet, but: Can someone under 21 buy either smokeless or black powder, at all? Assume the state is Texas.

Even one notch tighter on the set screw and the lever in the unlocked position I cannot get it seated fully by hand.

Did that in the first place. :) I *DID* read the manual. It's tight when the lever is locked that I cannot move it by hand, but after a few rounds it shakes back about a quarter of an inch.

Just picked up mine. Wierd problem with the scope not staying in place on the rail even though i've tightened the mount down to the point where any tighter requires a hammer to get it in place....Time for locktite I think.

Best: Browning buckmark..I barely have to think about it, and it fires. Worst: IMI Uzi Model A ....Stiff, lots of overtravel, *HEAVY* pull, and the fit of the grip doesn't make things easier.
