Fedex just delivered my Colt Wiley Clapp from Alchemy, and I'm blown away at how nice it is! Rob did a fantastic job; I can't say enough good things about him and his shop. Now, I just have to figure out which grips to run with! Flush cut and chamfer slide stop pin and hole Flush cut and...

I'm putting together my outline and speech for my Oral Communications class, arguing against handgun bans. I'm trying to point out cities other than Chicago, D.C., and New York that have outright bans, or defacto bans. Any help would be appreciated, as I'm overloaded researching Heller as well.

This poll is to conduct research on changing the NFA rules. While I would support a complete removal of the law, I don't believe that it will happen anytime soon. So what I'm trying to do is appeal to a politicians base emotion; greed. I plan to write to a willing congressional delegate to...

Well, the Mk 12 Mod 1 is shooter ready, with it's own lower now. Working on developing a Mk262'ish 77grn OTM load for it. Now all that's left is the suppressor, and BUIS. With it's cousin, and the Zombie Response Vehicle.

Trying to reload .223 for my AR. I'm using a Dillon 550, Dillon dies, and a Wilson case gage. Checking the brass prior to sizing, the rim is just ever so slightly over the top "lip". I can't size the brass to get it between the two limits. If I go too far down with the die, the rim sticks out...

Fedex came by this morning, and I finally have my upper. Boy it looks great. Thanks again to Kevin at High Caliber Sales. It's gonna have to ride on my BCM carbine lower until I get a new one for it. Next step is bipod and adapter, lower, sights, and finally the suppressor. And the...

Okay, had to come to those far more knowledgable than me. A gentleman in another state is wanting to have me finish some pistols for him. I told him that I'd be glad to do it, but that the transfer fees and shipping costs might be prohibitive. He said that he had talked to the ATF, and they...

I had to reset my seating die, and I would up seating it a little too deep for crimping. It has wound up knocking the shoulder back, so that when the cartridge is placed in my headspace gage, it sticks above the top about .001. Thankfully, I figured out that something was wrong after 5...

Got a really good deal on what was advertised as .308/30-06 147grn bullets. Has two cannelures. I set up my dummy/die set up round, and noticed that the brass case does not catch either of the cannelures. I'm assuming that everything will be fine, since the OAL is set right.

My new Inland Carbine. Manufactured between Sept. '43 and Jan. '44 from what I've found. Interestingly, it has a Rock Ola barrel. I wish these pictures did the stock justice; it is just beautiful!

Customer brought me a DPMS Panther in .308. It had previously been done in what I was told was a Brownells product. I'd never seen such a poorly done job before. This is the result of my work. This rifle was done in Krylon, as the owner was planning to sell it anyway.

Stopped by the gunplumbers today, to check on a part. Well, in the sale rack, he had some of the prettiest wood on a carbine that I'd ever seen. So, he said he'd make me a deal on the carbine. It's an Inland, at this time date unknown. I know that it'll function well; he knows US service weapons...

Okay, I've got some M80 ball that are 1.160, and they load just fine. I purchased 1K of 145grn .308/30-06 former tracers, and they measure 1.310; quite a bit longer. I haven't loaded these before in .308, and want to make sure that there isn't any issue. It looks like it will be a definate case...

Went to a local range today, and scored greatly. The owner let me sift through a few buckets of brass, and let me have the .308 and 30-06 that I found, close to 200 pieces in all. But, the best find was when he said he'd sell me 4 M14 mags for a total of $30. Turns out, they're 3 genuine BRW...

Just brought him home yesterday. We're torn between several names. So, tell us what you think in the poll. Sadly, Mrs. Birddog says no gun names.:(

How I Refinished My Stocks-Now w/More Pics Here are a few pics of the Garand, Old Man, and My M1A, Kelly. Because I suck I forgot to take before pictures. Old Man's stock was beat up pretty good, with a lot of dings and dents and 50 years of cosmoline. Kelly's stock is a new Boyd's oversized...

Just sent in my payment for my first CMP Garand. Went with the SA service grade. OOh, I can't wait! Don't know why I didn't do it years ago.

Thought I would take the time to show some of my handiwork. All of the rifles are done by me. These 3 were painted with Krylon Fusion, and the customers rifle done in Mission Specific paint. Here soon in the future, I'm going to start using Duracoat. Now the full job: And...

Guy is going to buy a rifle and a boat load of ammo from me, and he lives in Ill. I know they have alot of bad laws there; is there anything, as the seller, that I should be concerned with?

I'm looking for a private sale form that someone had made up before. I can't recall if it was here, but this is the best site for legal questions.
