So many acronyms. so little time.
I set right to work yesterday after getting my approval. I had read about WECSOGing a barrel shortening job by using progressively smaller dies and removing the thread between passes.
I did this once years ago to a Century FAL and it worked perfectly.
I would...
I just lost an auction on GB for a NOS HK buttpad. My max bid was $50.:mad:
To quote secret agent Maxwell Smart I "missed it by that much".
I guess I didn't want it bad enough considering the US made PTRs are $40...if I could find one.
So I'm looking for a VG condition buttpad in black.
Thanks...
So I recently learned of the short, slim handguard HK made a for the 223 rifles.
Evidently it is quite rare. I saw a picture of one (since deleted) over at the FALFiles. It looked pretty cool IMHO.
Do you think there would be a market for a reproduction?
I emailed RTG asking the same question. I...
So I took my C93 bolt apart this morning. It's a buffered bolt. This whole buffered bolt thing is new to me.
Anyway, the buffer looked like it had never been disassembled. It was a crime scene in there.
During reassembly I encountered a little resistance while rotating the locking piece into...
Can someone please visit the HKParts site, click around for a few minutes, and tell me if you get redirected, or whatever it's called, to some funky website.
Something is amiss. Perhaps it's the latest CME reaching earth?
There's a guy on the FALFiles selling what appears to be a very nice looking set of wood G3 furniture.
He's asking $185 shipped, seems a fair price nowadays. Buttstock is complete too.
You have to be registered to get in though.
I ordered an NOS Cetme grip frame and sent it to Jeff while he was building my G3K. I asked him to do the Clip & Pin mod to it while he was doing the same to the good gun.
He refused. I got a little butt-hurt. I begged, Nope, he wouldn't do it. I got even more annoyed when he posted his own...
I'm just pleased as punch to be able to offer this not-so-rare but very new RCM long muzzle brake. Needing absolutely no introduction, this muzzle brake is 4.8 inches long, covered in an incredible black coating, and features the highly desirable 15 x 1 right hand internal thread. Dont miss your...
I've been pining for a 33K but IMHO they just dont look right without an A3 stock.
Unfortunately my Scarab needs new outdrives and the house on Hilton Head needs a new roof so I cant afford spending up to $2k for a single pin stock. :ROFLMAO:
So I made one...
I had been watching GB for used...
So the light bulb came on about 30 minutes after I bought this here last week.
I was sitting on the couch, watching TV...that ad said 53K not 33K. Dumbass!!
I had already committed to buy it, I couldn't very well back out.
This is a new, RCM 53K barrel. It is pure as driven snow. It's also...
Remember that straight magazine I was kvetching about? The one I sold to a guy in Cali?
Well he shipped it back to me when I explained my concerns. How's that for decent?
I do not own an MP5 style "gun". I bought it to try in an AR SBR I built that runs on MP5 mags.
It did not like it at all...
I sold a receiver online recently. Buyer said he is having a hard time finding an FFL who will process a transfer from a non-FFL holder (me).
Anyone know why this situation would cause any heartache with an FFL?
I understand the process behind assembling the receiver/trunion/barrel. That is not to say I could do it. I just have a layman's grasp of what goes on.
How is the front sight attached? I've always assumed that everything gets aligned, a hole is drilled/reamed, and the front sling loop pin is...
Went to the range last week. Discovered that my 9mm AR poodle-shooter, the one fed from MP5 mags, does not like the straight MP5 magazines at all.
No Sir. Not one bit.
Eighty bucks down the tube!! It runs great on curved mags.
Anyone know if followers for straight magazines are available out...
So Yuengling entered into a brewing partnership with a brewery here in Fort Worth. I bought a six-pack yesterday.
It's just not the same. It's close but different. I buy PA Yuengling when I go to Kentucky for work.
Like Newcastle Brown brewed in Chicago or Guinness brewed in Canada...it's just...
I was surfing the net yesterday and stumbled upon some videos of the HK G11. Damn, what a wild machine that was.
I had never heard of it.
Watched Ian's video and some live fire videos. That operating mechanism was insane.
It fired three rounds in about eight one-hundredths (.08) of a second when...
