DMK - thanks again for the tips.

Thanks to everyone for all the great suggestions. DMK, your tips were exactly what I needed. I think I've done everything right except for over-lubing the bolt assembly and not drying the firing pin, which I'll do as soon as I am home again. Just curious why the firing pin should be dry? Is...

or: (n.): The phenomenon where, when your wife finds out you just bought three guns in two weeks, she "cuts you off" from any nookie for an indefinite period. ;)

Those cops' beat must be some bad ass neighborhoods - LAPD Compton, maybe?

First off, I want to thank everyone here for all your assistance lately. With my handguns, shotguns and .22 rimfire, I just "buy, go, and do". I don't spend a ton of time over-thinking every detail. I never thought twice about disassembing an auto handgun without a manual (just take a couple...

~24k rounds on-hand most of the time? Hope you have a Halon system in that room! ;)

Another question on the same basic topic: I use MilSurp ammo boxes, and toss-in several of those those little silica packets that you find in the box with most new shoes, luggage, and lots of other products that ship here by ocean containers, to absorb moisture. I try to be careful about...

Was that price with or before shipping? If shipping was extra, how much? Thanks. MMcfpd, nevermind - I realized my dialing finger actually still does work [duh]. Shipping to me would have been about $20, so still a good deal. She said to check back Monday. They had 1/2 pallet yesterday...

I have been finding Wolf .223 for $3.99 - $4.25/box of 20, or about 20¢/round at a sporting goods store in the next county, and at a recent gun show. Each time I bought 100 rounds. Based on this thread, that sounds like a reasonable price for someone that doesn't reload. I suppose I might...

Ouch Sounds like I better start thinking more about western AZ or NV, and just biting the bullet (pun intended) and driving to SoCal when I need to be there. Tax system is better in NV anyway. ______________________________________________________________ Speaking of which, ***?.. How...

I moved out of CA about 15 years ago, but family circumstances might require me to return sometime in the coming few years. Since I left CA, I've purchased several guns including an AR-15. Will it matter that I purchased these guns legally if I bring them back to CA? I don't want to get into...

Adjustable cantilever mounts: Midwest Industries vs. Bennie Cooley? Midwest Industries MCTAR-A2C Adjustable Cantilever A2 Carry Handle Optic Mount vs. The Bennie Cooley Co-Witnessing Adjustable Mount (BC-CAM) - anyone able to tell me if there are any important differences besides a small...

Absolutely agree on the .22 being a great gun to bring along for introducing people to shooting, as well as a fun and economical plinker for everyone. That is what I used to introduce my kids to shooting. Quiet and almost no recoil, and with even a cheap scope most anyone can get a warm fuzzy...

Well, even though I am asking a lot of questions, I'm not ready to call having the carry handle a "problem" - at least not yet. The mounting rail I have still permits seeing through the handle to use the iron sights, so I have the option to shoot without a scope. Based on some other posts about...

[Note: Started typing this before the last two posts were on there] The mag is removed and out of the way. The height is just from the bottom of the grip to the top of the scope. Tried angling the gun, etc, but can't get it in the case it came with, with the scope mounted atop the handle...

I have a Bushnell 1/321x 32mm 73-0132P red/green dot scope and a bushmaster M4A2 with mounting rail to mount the scope on the carry handle. I saw a discussion on another site's forum asking the same question, but there was only one reply and it was negative. Would like to hear from anyone on...

Anyone use this scope mounted on carry handle? I have this scope and a bushmaster M4A2 with mounting rail to mount the scope on the carry handle. I saw a discussion on another site's forum asking the same question, but there was only one reply and it was negative. Would like to hear from...

Thanks for the explanations. Obviously I am not experienced at all with scopes. This was the first one I've purchased, and I should have done my research better, or gone to a sporting goods store to look at one before buying online. I will have to see how it works out, but I may end up...

I recently bought a Bushnell Trophy scope and have a probably really dumb question. I purchased it online. The specs say the optics are 1x32mm. When I look through the scope, I do not see any magnification, and I do not see anywhere on the scope to change the magnification, just to change the...
