    Question on changing out charging handle on a XG3S

    Yeah, the alignment between the top and bottom holes is horrendous, making removal of the pin all the more difficult. So you're saying the bottom of the pin is supposed to be mushroomed a little?

    Question on changing out charging handle on a XG3S

    Gads. My anxiety level certainly is increasing here as thoughts of mucking up something enters my head. :uhoh:

    Question on changing out charging handle on a XG3S

    I'm looking to replace the charging handle on my XG3S, and from instructions I've found I should be knocking the pin up to remove it. Looking at both sides of the pin, it sure looks like the underside of the pin is larger than the top. Before I go pounding on it (and perhaps make things...

    What's this Intrac AK-74 worth?

    Looking to shed a few guns, and I can't find anything on this one to figure out a reasonable price. I picked up this Romanian AK-74 imported by Intrac Arms during the 90's AW ban, so it's got a POS thumbhole stock, no muzzle brake, and no bayonet. C.U.R.2 is stamped on the receiver. I've...

    very light armor?

    I don't know who made it anymore, or if it's even still available, but years ago a body armor manufacturer made a fanny pack with a Level 1(?) vest tucked inside. In times of trouble, you opened the top of the pack, pulled out the top of the vest, and pulled a top loop over your head to hold...

    No gun sign FAILS!

    Given that you can carry in Ohio, but it's illegal to carry inside the bar, the sign may well have been put up to remind CCW folks they can't bring their guns inside.

    anyone here downsize their collection out of choice?

    Yup. Over the past year I've sold 6. Don't fire 'em, so why keep 'em? If it wasn't for the CA AW ban, I'd sell more.

    Breaking into a gun safe - UL testing

    I think your best bet for keeping someone from wandering off with it would be to bolt it to the floor/wall.

    Anyone else watch 48 hours?

    There was a .50 Desert Eagle used as a murder weapon in the early seasons. Thought that was kinda neat.

    Movie blooper

    At the beginning of SWAT, you can see one of the officer's pistols stovepipe on a crimped blank cartridge when they're on the firing range. In the opening credits to the remake of The Getaway, there's a close-up of a gun firing in slow motion in the opening credits. It stovepipes on a...

    CCW and Road Cycling

    I've always wondered if this might work for bicycling. I think you could even work out a way to put a ballistic panel in there for at least a small amount of protection.

    Do you push from the front of the barrel out the back, or from the back out the front?

    Concealed Carry in SF?

    I carry in SF, but I've never had cause to let anyone know so I have no idea what the police would do if they found out.

    Practical Bullet Testing

    The reason why using clay is not advised as a testing medium is your expansion and penetration will not reflect actual performance. Clay tends to overexaggerate expansion, and is not recommended. 1/2 gallon juice/milk cartons are a very quick and easy way to capture bullets. If you have a...

    How would you explain to somebody why semi-autos aren't evil?

    Can she then agree to eliminate police ownership of semi-auto weapons? Or do patrol officers have the need to kill or maim large groups of people?

    "Never tell a soul about your CCW"

    If you side carry, when you hug keep that arm low. It forces the other person to put their arm high, and they will miss your gun as your arm will cover it. Unless you're hugging my dad, who goes low on that side of me like his life depends on it. If it gets felt up in a hug and queried I...

    "Never tell a soul about your CCW"

    It's all up to you, really. Two people know I carry - my brother and a close friend. I suspect others in my shooting group know, but it's not really brought up unless we talk about how to get one. I don't tell anyone for the following reason. Person A knows you carry a gun. Person A...
