Anybody know if this combination will work? I've got a Hipertouch Eclipse trigger and I'm curious if the SIRT bolt will work with it since it's a little different. The SIRT description says it works with a standard trigger group but is adjustable for "a variety of AR platforms." I'm inclined...

I'll post this over on HKpro eventually, but I'm waiting on my confirmation e-mail. I'm trying to install the Hybrid LEM trigger on a USP Expert 9mm. Things seem to go according to plan until I get the slide back, at which point the hammer won't release - if I pull the trigger, the hammer...

Brought a p229 Legion home yesterday (nearly getting killed on the roads in the process), and took it downstairs tonight to plink with the laser bullet. Kicker was that on the way to pick it up, I get an e-mail that says "UpperAtmosphere! We've got those P229 Legions you wanted in stock.."...

I picked up an old, very nice Clark Heavy Longslide recently. On inspection at home, I noticed that when releasing the slide, maybe 30% of the time the hammer would drop to half-cock instead of staying all the way back. I black flagged the gun until I can get this fixed, as I don't want a...

I picked up a Navy 1911 that dates to 1918. Most of the markings I have figured out easily enough. JMG on left side of frame = John M. Gilbert United States Property = fairly self explanatory. Font looks kinda like Wedge Gothic. Top of the frame, just north of the magwell has a...

Thinking long and hard on a Brigadier. I have probably another month to consider the purchase before I can go for it. Anybody have one and care to comment?

I'm considering purchasing a Volquartsen .22 pistol. I don't have any experience with their pistols, just parts, and I'm pretty familiar with the Ruger Mark platform. All of the VQ pistols look nice, what's the word from owners?

Anybody have a good source for extractor springs for a Model 41? Ejection on my gun has become fairly anemic at times and it has an unknown round count, so I'm thinking a replacement spring might be in order. Usual suspects are all out of stock.

I bought a Wolff spring set for my Pocketlite, which includes a recoil spring, hammer spring, and extra strength firing pin spring. Recoil spring and hammer spring went into place without issue. The firing pin spring is about three coils too long - If I stick the spring into the channel, the...

My father has a Thompson Auto-Ordnance TM1 that has a totally stuck bolt. He hasn't used the gun in many years, and indicated that he was having some malfunctions before the gun completely froze up. The bolt is currently stuck about halfway through the lower divot on the bolt track (hard to...

I've been shooting in a rimfire league with my father. He and I normally shoot Ruger Mark IIs that have been heavily tricked out. Two weeks ago, my Ruger started giving me monster problems - failure to feed, bullets failing to go where I instruct them to go, the bolt eaaaaasing forward...

I picked up an SP-01 yesterday, set about trying to dismantle it for inspection, and determined that it doesn't have the lineup mark behind the rear slide serrations. There's a mark on the frame but not on the slide. So. How far back is that lineup mark supposed to be?

I've got a Ruger Mark II that I sent to Clark Custom Guns for a full workover, and it has developed a sticky trigger - it doesn't always happen, but when I pull the trigger sometimes I'll have to give it a little extra tug (while up against the trigger stop screw), or it'll take a hair longer...

What's the word on the Majestic Arms Ruger magazines? My factory Ruger magazines suffer from quite a few failures to feed. I took them apart, ran a round file through to take care of any burrs, trimmed the followers, lubed them up, and they still failed me tonight at league orientation...

I'm going to take my son to an NRA First Steps class in a couple of months, so I'm on the hunt for a small .22 that will fit his small hands. Some research has pointed me to a Ruger Bearcat. I've got a Single Six, and I know the Bearcat is smaller than that. The Shopkeeper seems to be about...

I recently purchased a Glock 34, and bought a Vanek Classic trigger (not the Grandmaster version as the Jager strikers are hard to come by). The whole thing came fully assembled, it just drops in. I installed the 4 pound striker spring. I played with that for a bit and didn't like the feel...

What's the word on the Sphinx SDP? I see a lot of stuff indicating that it's a quality firearm, I don't see a lot of practical hands-on description. Anybody have some to share?
