The idea is if I had a medium priced bolt gun might have a more natural feel to it and shoot tighter groups, thus allowing me to take longer shots. My MSR-10 shoots about...

    Oiling/greasing the bolt yay or nay?

    So I've owned numerous pump guns over the years, but decided to dip my toes in the auto waters with a Stoeger m3000 freedom series.

    We were shooting the other day and I pulled the bolt back and it broke. Hoping to get some help in finding a replacement part.

    Hey all, So I've been having some trouble with light primer strikes in my AR-15, and it appears to be alleviated when I take my bolt carrier group apart and clean it.
