    Since I have him sitting here, making the husband answer a 2nd one lol: "For a ULR competition rifle a new shooter can ruin the rifling (assuming they aren't me and have the lathe and tools to fix the rifling afterwards) the first time they clean it.

    So Says The Husband (gunsmith): "Go to Lowe's and go to the Metal By The Piece aisle. Buy a thin, 3' aluminum rod and a basic threading kit (30$ total). Match the threads to your current cleaning rod (just buy the cheap Hobbe's kit at Walmart), and thread the end of the rod to match a female...

    AR Builds -- What Parts Did You Choose and Why??

    Building an AR is... ENTIRELY a personal thing. What some people deem absolutely THE BEST of something... someone else will consider garbage (The Grendel vs SPC arguement is a good example). The only real way to know is to try out various things... but: - Vortex Scope - Spike upper - Spike...

    Hello everyone... Jennifer here. My husband and I own a shop... kinda. He's a gunsmith, and I'm the smile lol.
