    AR Pistol Upper - Build or Buy - Who has experience?

    Making my first AR pistol after completing an 80% lower. :D Thinking about getting a 7.5" Adams Arms 1 in 7 Melonite barrel to build my upper, but I am also open to suggestions for pre-built uppers. What is your experience?

    Most Effective Caliber for a AR Pistol?

    Finishing my first 80% lower here shortly and looking forward to my first AR pistol build. Pondering what to chamber it in. I like the idea of a shorter (~7") rather than a longer (~10.5") barrel, which I know will factor into the decision. I'd also like something I can hang onto for...

    Locking the M2A1 Ammo Can. How?

    I understand that the M2A1 ammo can has a "lever-lock" system, but I have no idea how it works. Using regular Google search, Google image search, etc. yields nothing except homemade locking devices, many of which require drilling into the airtight/watertight can, which I am not willing to do...

    TulAmmo and the Local Range

    Went to the local range yesterday and brought some TulAmmo with some Blazer Brass. About halfway through my session, the range guy says I can't shoot the steel-cased stuff there. I told him that I thought it was only steel-bullet stuff that was off limits, but he said no, it was steel-cased as...

    .357 Sig owners - Ammo Question

    I checked into ammo prices before taking the plunge (admittedly it wasn't that much of a plunge, I simply got a .357 Sig barrel for my .40S&W), so I knew it was going to be expensive. There are a couple of deals right now on factory ammo from ammoman.com: - Federal 125gr. Truncated FMJ...

    9mm & .45 ACP carbines - Buy or build?

    I've settled on 9mm and .45 ACP as standards for the main handguns and carbines in my arsenal. Though I will have one-offs for special purposes (e.g. rifle and handgun in .22LR, an AR15 in 5.56 and a bolt action in .308), the majority will be in 9mm and .45 for ammo interchangeability purposes...

    Source for a 16" 416R/RS SS melonite barrel?

    The balance of the desired specs are (1) mid-length gas, with (2) 1:8 twist. Should I get the steel in one place and have someone else do the work? Or can I go somewhere for a completed piece? Seems what I am looking for is either in short supply, backlogged, or... ???
