Nicholst55, Yes, I've heard many good things about the Stiller. I really like the fact that Remington based parts can be dropped in. I also figure there is a better resale value there compared to a typical 700. Sunray, I know both Weatherby and S & W have 1500 based rifles and I can't...

Savage99, I'm really only interested in hunting rifles. I guess my next project will probably be a .270 Win., followed by a 25-06, then a 338-06, (do you see a pattern?), then a 22-250. I tend to like rifles with weight to them. I like rifles that are strong and balanced and rugged. I...

Thanks a lot rcmodel. Anybody got any other suggestions?

Also, are we talking about Jewell triggers, or maybe Timney?

rcmodel, Can one purchase 700 actions separately from Remington or a distributor, or do you have to buy the whole rifle and discard the stock and barrel? Also can you suggest a couple names of great barrels? Thanks.

I have done a very little custom work and am looking for a little guidance in moving on. I have had tremendous luck building off a Howa 1500 barreled action, but would like to build something a little more upscale. My research seems to indicate Remington 700s are great platforms, but the work...

Thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it. The pictures are a big help. It never ceases to amaze me what a great learning tool this forum is.

Thanks a lot Pete409. I sure appreciate it.

I am trying to change the gas system on my older Remington 1100 (1980s era) and am a little nervous about doing it. In referring to the blow-up diagram in the manual it appears as if you simply slide the piston seal assembly and then the barrel seal over the magazine tube, but no real specifics...

If we indeed are issued the 590, I will post the particulars here. I would think our unit would be one of the first to receive the new weapon.

To the best of my knowledge, your information is incorrect. I am an NYPD officer and we are not issued shotguns, nor have I heard that we will be, and I am assigned to a special disorder control unit. Because New York's poulation density is so high, most of our equipment and tactics are geared...

JohnBT-Thanks for your response. This is not something I knew at all. I thought that since the receiver extension and adjusting sleeve were constant to the receiver, if the barrel fit in them, it would work in the gun. Thanks for your help. Maybe this old Model 12 will just be a home...

CHAS08--Thanks for they reply. My problem lies a little further down the disassembly line. I have the gun broken down beyond that. Now all that I have left is the barrel which is still affixed to the receiver extension. I have to remove the receiver extension and attach it to the new barrel...

I am trying to switch barrels on my Winchester Model 12. I have had no problem breaking the shotgun down, but the barrel appeared to be stuck to the adjusting sleeve and the receiver extension. After an awful lot of oil and elbow grease, I have managed to loosen the adjusting sleeve and...
