    .300 blk, but bigger....

    yeah, supersonic and sub sonic ranging from 200 to possibly 400 grain offerings. There are plenty of cartridges for the ar-15 platform, .458 socom, .375 socom, .338 spectre and whatnot that offer this but at a reduction in magazine capacity, with a bolt change and you have to pay attention to...

    .300 blk, but bigger....

    Esteemed folks aka "brain trust" I am about to pull the trigger (no pun intended) on getting a wilcat reamer ground for a cartridge. The question I am posing is "would anyone like a 350+ subsonic thumper for the AR-10 platform, 20 rounds in a standard mag, with lighter bullet options exceeding...

    Specs and Info on the Krinkov

    Hello all, looking for specs on the rear gas/hinge/sight block for a krinkov. Working on an idea but I would like to 3D model this particular part and the front gas block. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated!

    Mossberg MVP 7.62x51mm rifle ?

    Actually, there was another bolt gun that fed from M1A mags, however it was a special run of Mauser action bolt guns (Parker-Hale M85 ring a bell?) for the sniper rifle contract for the UK back in the 90s, which was won by Accuracy International. In regards to this rifle however. I pose the...

    Magpul gave up the fight pretty quick...

    +1 to that JoeSchmoe. Being on the low side of potentially deadly threat response, I can tell you first hand that not having the right equipment can mess up your day.

    Ok guys, help a traditional handloader with a question...

    I just recently encountered this myself and given my findings, I too: 1. Deprime/form (station 1) 2. Trim, swage, uniform primer pocket, debur and chamfer 3. Tumble to remove lube 4. Prime (back on station 1) 5. Charge (station 2, modified for individual measure and pour) 6. Seat...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    That would be correct.....if someone else was doing the work. Besides, these are ideas that will be a few years in the making. The barrel extension could be threaded for any thread pattern for any barrel and basing the switch barrel system off of the extension. I know this has been done...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    Yessir, that would be what I am looking for. I am also extremely fond of the 3 position safety found on Win 70's and FN's. So why not just go with a Win 70 action or an FN action? Looking at that too. But I would still like to run the small/large shank Stevens/Savage barrels. Although in...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    After further investigation into the afformentioned subject matters I have determined this project to be a bit of a wash. The depth of the case hardening and the composition of the Turk reciever lends to the original thread pattern choice of the mauser, in this case .980 Dia with 12 Tpi. Even...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    So for safety's sake, I would have to be willing to scrap the action if this didn't work but I would do the initial internal turn before threading and test the hardness of the surface area. Hmmmm...curiouser and curiouser. Getting PTG to re-carb the action and bolt wouldn't be a bad idea either...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    As to the idea of "over threading" a barrel in the normal small ring pattern of .980 @ 12 tpi, I have thought about this, but the steep angle of 12 tpi. does not seem condusive to a barrel nut system to hold on to. But the idea was broached. Being able to order and install pre-made barrels...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    The turk mauser is a large ring receiver with a "small ring" barrel shank to include the one in question. Now saying that this "is a bad idea" is all well and good, but my question is why? Is the receiver too soft to have .1775" of material surrounding the barrel? (overall receiver dia is...

    re-inventing the wheel, re-threading a turk mauser

    looking through the gun safe (becoming more and more full by the month) I came across a turk mauser action that was gifted to me by an old friend. The barrel is pitted, wood was crap, so on and so forth. I came up with and idea, albeit with the addition of a couple shots of Jameson's, to bore...

    Clays newbies

    Recently purchased a 12 ga. Stoeger m2000 combo from Bass Pro. My younger brother (husband and father of 5) needed some man time so the excuse for me to get into shotgunning was great! Paid 500 (540 with tax) for the semi-auto with 5 chokes, 2 barrels (18.5 and 28?) and promptly took it out...

    9mm vs .40 Which is better?

    Man I love this question. 9mm or 40 s&w? Well, modern powder and bullet technology being what it is today, 9mm. Good defense loads and good prices on bulk ammo for training yourself on how to use said ammo. More range time is the goal here! Glock being best pistol of all time? I will...

    Which AR mags?

    +1 on Pmags +1 on Hk Mags (heavier steel construction, double as bludgeoning device in a bind :D) On the subject of GI mags, green followers no, they can kink in adverse conditions, push down on just the front of the follower, it will stay in place. Tan followers yes. The biggest issue I...

    Cleaning the AR15

    I can tell you what not to do. Do not use sharp tools to "scratch" carbon out of or off of your rifle. Being "in" for 16 years now I can tell you the number 1 mistake is overcleaning your ar. Scratching a good finish will provide more edges for the carbon to take purchase and build faster...

    What Do You Want in a Combat Rifle

    Yes, haven't seen a rig yet that packs 65 magazines lol. I was referring the possibility of having to "run and gun" for a couple of days (yes, for some people, this is a stark reality) without the perceived time to completely clean and service the weapon, not 2000 rounds straight, but this is...

    AR Front Sight Removal/Installation help

    front tower replaced with an integral flip up front sight gas block made just for this kind of thing? They are out there, not terribly expensive IIRC

    Hi there!

    Allow me to apologize, I was merely quoting Ted Nugent on the power and effectiveness of the 10mm, I did not mean to offend, but you do bring up a very valid point. Yes, a recoil pad is definately in my future, but in the idea to add that and a couple of lbs to the stock (along with a more...
