    Gun-owning family needs help keeping their kids

    Your welcome. Let me get this right. You think 'Islam' is a race? Funny, I always thought it was a religion. Oh, -and- cris is a drunk... Really. How do you know? I'll answer that. You -dont-. You feel that because Cris did something that upset -you-, Melody and the kids should...

    Gun-owning family needs help keeping their kids

    I am -such- a junkie. I told myself I was going to walk away...but this just -begs- for a Fisking. translation - "I have no idea what's going on, but you offended me a couple of -YEARS- ago, so I'm going to say and imply bad things about you, and wish that bad things happen to you."...

    Gun-owning family needs help keeping their kids

    I've been lurking on this forum for a about a year and change now. This tears it. I have no idea how long this post will remain standing, but at least I'll have the satifaction of saying it. This place claims to "The High Road' with the implication of being a place where people can gather...

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    .2mm is about half the thickness of a automatic pencil lead. I -still- dont know what caused the problem, but it works fine now.

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    well a new mainspring and shaving .2mm off of the sear catch on the side of the firing pin, and all is well. the luger passed it's range test with flying colors.

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    well the finish is is -horrible- shape. so it may be that the letter portion is simply obliterated.

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    BigG- I found that out last night while reading, thank you for confirming it. this puzzles me, I cant find -any- letters in the serial number of the top end it's all 7,number,number,number, no letter. same with the bottom 2, number, number, no letter. As to your second question, the...

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    Big G - While the mainspring has to be replaced, it doesnt seem to help. Regardless of springs or no springs, the breechblock fails to go completely into battery unless you pull the trigger, -or- you remove the firing pin assembly. Keyboard- Because I wasnt looking in the right places. the...

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    I'm still trying to puzzle out the mystery of the extra .8mm I mean any idiot can just throw new parts at it till it works. I want to know what went wrong, and why. oh and the story gets better. this gun is a parts gun. some idiot gutted a sub 300 serial number, pre 1913, civilian...

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    I'm tempted to just swap out the whole firing pin assembly, it's only 40 bucks.

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    the firing pin assembly ( parts 22-23-24 ) are clear, and when removed, 22 and 24 can be pressed flush with each other. It's as if #22 just -grew- .8mm for some odd reason.

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    Using this link as a reference. http://www.e-gunparts.com/productschem.asp?chrMasterModel=3230zP-08 > Could be a trigger linkage problem in the side-plate. The trigger linkage matches the parts discription and pictures, and nothing appears bent or worn. Is there something else I...

    pesky luger P-08 problem.

    a friend of mine brought a luger to me for service. headstamped 1917 WWI/WWII bringback, artillery model, serial 7XXX all matching. It wont go into battery. User claims failure was sudden, not gradual ( "it fetched up right in the middle of shooting, no warning at all! " says the owner...

    building a rifle from scratch

    hmmm. not a bad idea. not sure if it would pay off or not, parts kits have gotten pricy. and as far as reinventing the wheel, I'm going to cheat. I'm using the AK gas piston design, the AK trigger group, and a modifed AR style bolt. So it's more of a case of taking ideas from...

    building a rifle from scratch

    Brian 923- "is this your first build?" This is my first -firearm- build, but I've built a number of tools and parts out of metal " or have you built semi autos from scratch before?" No I have not. "does it have to be 7.62x54R?" Ideally, yes. even on brand new ammo, I can buy 5...

    building a rifle from scratch

    Big Az Al - More like an SVT-40 that's been simplfied. If I'm going to be building this thing from scratch, it's going to be as simple as I can make it.
