I used shaving cream to clean my M-60 back in the day, too. Fill that receiver up with foam, let it sit a spell, then flush with scalding hot water. Worked like a charm.

The Army ran out of replacement M-16A1 handguards (the right side, IIRC) and just started using the A2 ones to replace worn and broken triangular ones. I'm with kbob on most of the ID's, except I'm pretty sure from the first pic that it's an '03 Springfield and not a Krag. Also I don't see...

Small Arms Review Sometimes I'll pick up a Shotgun News.....but I never miss an issue of SAR.

You're not going to work as a PMC without military experience, at least no decent PMC firm. If you want to serve your country, join the service. If you want a lot of money, get a cafreer-either a trade (electrician, pipefitter, plumber, etc.) or a useful degree.

At a pin shoot at my club there were a couple of guys who were really in to it. One of them had spent the morning showing off his pin gun, a Para Ord high cap, he was saying he had $1200 into the gun. I was paired with him, shooting an Essex framed GI parts gun with better sights and a spray...

The Chair is Against the Wall, in this case,is from "Red Dawn". It was actually a message braodcast to the French Resistance prior to D-Day, and was quoted in "The Longest Day". Cool pics! That view is unbelievable!

Cheryl Wheeler "Don't Forget the Guns"-even if she meant it as sarcasm, it's describes my families road trips prefectly! Now let's get the kids and pack up the car Take that vacation we've been waiting for Drive across this country leave our worries far behind Singin' four-part harmony...

Starting with Patrick Purdy (and perhaps before) almost all of the mass shooters have been on some kind of mind altering drug-prozac, zoloft, etc. It's a heckuva "coincidence". IMO the Scientology thing isn't germaine to the topic. He's an American and can practice whatever religion he...

Kentucky, you should check out the fishing on property, maybe the ladies will cut you some slack for a day or half day. There are soome decent bass in the lake http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/moreMagic/otherRecDetail?id=OtherRecFishingDetailPage We go every year with our kids and love...

Keep in mind that those dates are adopted dates. Actual dates of issue may have overlap/concurrence with other weapons. To whit, the Army may have type classified the M-16A2 in 1986, the issuance of the weapons takes time. the 2nd ID in Korea got A2's in 1988, the 101st in 1989. My reserve...

That's the "I want to be a Lewis Gun" retro look popular with those whacky Taliban kids these days. ETA-sigfan beat me! that's what I get for not reloading the page when i came back to the computer! lol Maybe it's the AK that doubles as an E-tool (they ARE that tough, you know. the...

A belated but heartfelt Happy Anniversary! We need more Americans such as yourself.

FYI-If it's a Euro side folder it may not fit in a MAK-the East German ones won't fit my MAK-90.

Boston, We most certainly did field more rifles than the Brits. I hope my missive didn't come across as too critical! If so I apologize. I have most of your books and recomend them highly! Hologram of Liberty, in particular, is thought provoking and insightful. The rifle did play an...

Boston says: "The Redcoats used mass fire of smoothbores for target area saturation. The militia used rifled-barrel long guns, i.e., aimed fire. Superior skill at arms and weaponry mattered then, and still does today" BTP, I love you, man, I really do. But that is not exactly correct. The...

Take apart a Bic lighter, there is a long spring under the thumb piece that should fit, or a small spring from a ball point pen, the retracting kind, should fit, too, until you get the correct spring.

Regarding Boston's Gun Bible, I think pretty highly of it, particularly for neophytes. he approaches the firearms from the same perspective as I, or at least one as similar to mine as to remain in my comfort zone. he admits his bias, unlike most gun writers who seem to be more advertising...

Carry. In questionable states hide it deep in your pack. If you are mature enough not to wave it around, show other people, or let other people know you have it you should be OK. Most people who get nabbed will do one of those things. If, OTOH, you are one of those people who gets all excited...

Howard J. Fezell, Attorney 301-846-0241 Frederick, MD He's a great supporter of the Second Amendment and a real fighter. I owe him my freedom.

The production lines are for ammo-they'll use the same machines for .223, then .22-250. They just switch some parts, recalibrate, and run the ammo. So the switch from making .223 to 5.56 NATO is pretty easy. they may not use identical cases, but the cases are made on the same lines, bullets too...
