The gas block, origonaly a hex screw on, was milled out to accept pins, so the gas block should be spot on. Ive done it a few times before with other rifles, and never had any probems. I checked it again yesterday (Pulled out the pins and checked the allignment, and it seemed perfect. I dont...

Alright guys, I just checked over the gas system again and its in perfect shape, so heres the plan. With the ejection being around the 5 o'clock, I was thinking of taking two of the weights out of my stock rifle buffer and trying again. Does everyone think that will be a good ammount of...

now that you mentioned it... while I didnt pay attention to the pattern, I did notice much more rubbed off brass on my deflector than usual. Id say 5 o'clock.

You hit it right on the head. The Sig 556 Mag rest release hole (or whatever you call it) is SLIGHTLY above the others. ( GI, Pmag, Sig 556) Probly a mm or two. Im still curious as to what this means and why it started. This is a rifle that would function with any clip you put in it...

mc223: You know my first thought was that it was getting too much force from the buffer, but the buffer and buffer spring are both stock from a a2 stock kit. it just seems weird to me that the stock buffer system would be generating that much force. Also remember that it works great with my...

F40: umc .223 brass. Its the only thing this gun has ever seen. And the barrel was not changed. It only has about 2k rounds through

Shot of the ramps, as good as i can get with this iphone camera.

I should have taken some pics when I was just out there, but ill describe it the best I can. This is about where the bolt carrier gets stuck when it happens (Im just manualy holding it back in this pic) Its quite a ways forward, so the round is in the chamber itself. Also, it can take...

A m16 bolt assembly (From a colt ar-15), a magpul prs, and a freefloat tube.

Specs: M&p-15 -carbine length gas system, 16" barrel running with a standard a2 buffer spring and buffer. (magpul PRS) -m16 bolt assembly -Stock everything else. About every 5 or so rounds, when the gun is chambering a new round it will do this. The round is severly bent at the...

Hey guys.... I was switching out a stock on my ar, and I got the tube off just fine, and saved the little spring there. But then I heard something pound into the wall and now my rear take down pin comes totaly out of the reciver. Can someone tell me what I lost and where I could get another...

Hey guys. I've refinished quite a few guns before, but today I had an issue I've never had before and need some advice. I'm redoing an ak finish that is decent, but has quite a few storage scratches in places. So this morning I looked up the UPS tracking and my finish was coming in today. In...

Not hard at all. Just pop off the upper hand guards and there are usually two screws on the butt stock. Expensive can be tricky. You can get synthetic stock sets for pretty darn cheap, but some of the nicer finished wood stock sets can get up there. (300-400 for a nice custom one) But then...

I was in the former soviet union for 18 years of active service with both the 10th Special Forces and the corporations Russian intelligence unit. I can personally say that the Kalashnikov has saved my life numerous times. IMO, there's no better weapon for realistic long term operations. Of...

I think I might try that then just to do something different. Order and on its way. :D Here's a few more to see the condition of the metal beforehand and the stocks cured out. Now comes metal prep!

AK103K: I'm more fond of Durakote. How have you found the Aluma Hyde to hold up? I know quite a few people that love it. Mike U: Agreed! Thats one reason I chose the tung oil treatment. I find it really brings the grain out. Mike the Wolf: Thanks, and yes, they really are comfy!:D

Romanian AK Refurb Project *update 4/16* Well I got yet another ak in need of some refinishing. Thought I would do an ongoing post of the steps involved in making this thing a beauty. A little about myself I guess. I joined the army many moons ago, and graduated to a foreign ops unit, then...

DOUBLE TAP!! I use the 185 Speer Gold Dots at 1225fps - 616 ft./lbs, and they come in below a p+ rating. Never failed to cycle and accurate as all get out. There a damn stout load and its all I use in my carry .45. Price is good too. A box of 50 runs around 40 bucks. Much better than off the...

Thanks for the comments and advice guys! I recognize that its a pretty mute point between the two different choices I gave, but being the nerd I am its more just out of curiosity. So basically what I got from this is: 1. Theoretically, if both bullets were to have the same expansion and...

I gotcha. So the 200 grain would deliver the momentum you want. Does the same hold true for the rest of the calibers? say 180 vs 230 grain .45? If thats the case, why do people pick the lighter weights vs the heavy?
