    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    Only time JB Weld didn't set for me was when it wasn't thoroughly mixed or mixed in the correct ratio at above 40F and below 120F... But I will admit if you end up using 3 packages of JBWeld you are more than halfway to the cost of the Acraglass kit. Which already has anything for you. I've...

    Dulling a stainless rifle on a budget, options?

    +1 on blasting as that would look the best, it's definitely permanent though. Also... blasting isn't all that difficult it seems harder than it is. I bought a 15 gallon plastic drum off Craigslist and made a blasting tank out of it. I used it this video that I made on how to parkerize a...

    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    Some folks would say that you already ruined it by trimming the stock. Or that it's no longer collectable. They are correct but is that why you purchased the firearm in the first place??? ONly you know. Some will say JBWeld will ruin the gun... but like I said... if it's a cheap gun like a...

    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    Holly Cow! Wow, sounds like an affair. I like what your are saying. Bear in mind the forums are full of people who know everything about what someone else should or should not be doing. That's great but hall monitors don't realize that trying and failing then trying and succeeding is a...

    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    Oh BTW just looked up M44.. I had a mosin once... it was full length though. I put a synthetic stock from ATI on it. Then a scope tapped onto the receiver section (not crapped on the rear sight) and then trimmed and re-crowned the barrel. No matter what I did it NEVER got accurate. NOt sure I'd...

    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    JB Weld Is there a downside to using JB Weld? I'm afraid to answer this question on this forum, LOL. I would bet unless someone saw you do it, or inspected the bedding they'd hardly know the difference. But I'm also gonna bet there's a number of people completely disagree with what I...

    Star B Pistol Grip Screw Thread Size?

    Thank you Ron! Saw the website never found the paragraph where it listed the grip screw size. But looked on your link harder and saw it. Thank you!

    glass bedding: question on releasing agents

    I used shoe polish and JBWeld... depends on the expense of the gun. I did mine on a Savage Axis so if I screwed up it wasn't a super big deal but it worked well. If your gun is "precious" to you then I'd use what brownells sells and then be happy later that you didn't screw something up. IF your...

    Dulling a stainless rifle on a budget, options?

    +1 on black rattle can... I've painted several guns with flat back only to wipe it off later and sell it. lacquer thinner doesn't hurt stainless but will basically wipe that paint right off. I use the high heat stuff from rust o leum. IT won't peal off when your barrel gets hot and is an ultra...

    Glock barrel: Wilson Combat, Bar-Sto, Storm Lake or factory?

    I like my factory original I have a GLock 17L.. the factory original barrel (not ported) can shoot 1" MOA @ 25 yards, I'm not kidding either. I have to lean against something to do it but it will, If I had a vice I'd bet it would be better. Although it would be nice to have a stainless barrel...

    Trail Cameras

    Look for options Moultrie is a common brand so you can fix it or find parts etc.. maybe even a decent warranty. But options should depend on what you are using it for. With trail cameras batteries have always seemed to be the biggest pain in the but... especially when it gets cold. I...

    Star B Pistol Grip Screw Thread Size?

    Have a STAR model B pistol 9x19mm. Need to replace grip screws. Went to hardware store only to find it's not super common screw size. So I measured and assuming it's metric came up with 3.5x0.6mm. Does anyone know if 3.5x0.6mm is for sure the correct size for these pistol grip screws...

    Cleaning guns with Simple Green?

    KISS (Keep it simple simon) I'd try it and see how it works. I had the same question with Thompson bore cleaner on my muzzle loader.. it works good too but it's mostly like water w added rust inhibitor. So you are cleaning with water and a rust inhibitor so the water doesn't rust your...

    Land Management Help Needed!

    Depends on the real issue If the deer aren’t coming out until dark it sounds like they have been conditioned not to do so. As in one way or another they learned that coming out during the day is going to be bad for them… this occurs more often than not in heavily trafficked hunting lands. Best...

    I need a new lube

    Oil or Grease with Teflon (PTFE) Teflon takes well to a Parker zed finish I'd go as far as to say that parkerizing and Teflon (A.K.A. Polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE) are a top notch combo. It soaks into the porous parkerized coating and protects long term, the reason for parkerizing in the...

    Why no affordable competitors to the Hi-Point and Kel-Tec pistol caliber carbines?

    I agree with you... long have I wanted something that's not a Keltec or Hi-point but is super quality, shoots a 9mm out of a 30round Glock magazine and only costs about $250-300! But then I think the answer is in the question. The fact that I don't want a Kel-tec or Hi-point is the reason...
