http://www.whitehouse.gov/agenda/urban_policy/ Where exactly are those people that were on THR that were saying: "He won't come after guns. He's got too much to worry about with the ecomony." Seriously.... Its the same ole thing that we've seen, but there it is on the...

I can probably do this at some point this week, but I thought I'd seek the knowlege of those who have been there. I'm having my LR-308's fluted stainless steel 24" barrel cut down to somewhere between 18" and 20" and recrowned soon. While I am at it, I am having the barrel threaded...

Just a public service announcement. Please, let's not start discussing zombies here. AR15.com now has a ZOMBIE forum in the General Section: http://www.ar15.com/forums/forum.html?b=1&f=158 Have at it, boys and girls! (Zombiehunters.org is still better if you want actual SHTF...

Hiya.... I saw in another thread a reference suggesting that Burris was coming out with a "Fastfire II" that was sealed and completely waterproof. A number of searches that I've made has turned up nothing. Can anyone point me in the right direction with a link? I liked these as a...

I thought I’d post an incident that occurred with me on Friday of last week. I wanted to hold off writing anything until I was able to speak with the Sheriff’s Office on Monday. I spoke with them on Monday, and I feel comfortable posting now. Let me preface by saying that this wasn’t some...

Hiya. I was in a pawnshop yesterday while waiting for my mother to get out of another store. I saw a 1903 Springfield that I was curious about. Can any of you give me any pertinent information about it? Here's the run-down: Manufacture: Springfield Serial Number: 675,XXX It...

I am sick of it. I realize the whole point of primative weapons season. I do get it. And I still think it is nuts. Some of us simply do NOT enjoy archery/black powder/ other primative weapons. There ARE some people that just don't get a lot of time to hunt. When you DO get some...

This is kinda cool. Today, I was going through some old things that I was going to put in the attic and had an interesting find: I found a Colt 20 round AR-15 magazine that I had for my first EBR that I ever bought-- a cheap Olympic Arms CAR-15. I sold the rifle in 1987. It looks...

This isn't "gun-smithing" per se. It is more "Scopesmithing." Does anyone have a trick to remove stripped out set screws? I have a Leupold Mark 4 with M3 turrents that I got used. The damned set screws are stripped in the turrents. I got Leupold to send me some new ones, but I can't...

I have discovered that my set screws on my M3 knobs are stripped. I got the Leupold Mark 4 3.5-10x40 Ill. TMR on AR15.com EE. Well, I finally got around to sighting in yesterday. I tried to zero the knobs last night and the set screws were wallowed out. I called Leupold. They confirmed...

Posted with deference to "ZipityDoodah" on AR15.com. He said it best in his opening post, so I am quoting him: ZipityDoodah (on AR15.com) wrote: I wanted to get this message over to THR. PLEASE contact the GOP via the link that I have in this post and let them KNOW how we feel...

I've seen a number of threads here highlighting press coverage of gun purchases since the election. And then there is a thread about prices going up and scarcity. I wanted to remind everyone that this is a VERY good thing for us. Everyone remembers the Clinton AWB in 1994. Practically...

Hiya. I was just thinking about my summer vacation back in June. One thing we did was take a day trip out to Biltmoore because Jenn had always wanted to see it. I saw that one of the rooms that we would go to was the "Hunting"/"Sporting" or something like that room. The room was...

I posted this over at ARFCOM, but wanted to get input over here as well. Hiya, Once again, I am seeking the advice of those who've walked this path before. This is a two-part post. Issue one: I just got my Leupold Mark4 3.5-10x40 Illuminated TMR M3 in this week. I've got...

As I mentioned on the thread, I spent a year's project working on an accurate AK with limited success. One thing that I felt that I could have done to improve the project was to rework the trigger better. I did a trigger job on it, but it was manual starting with a Tapco G2 Trigger. I feel that...

We've all heard that axiom. Let's for a moment accept it as a truism. My morning ponderings brought me to this for some reason. OK... The premise of the above statement is that a man with one rifle KNOWS that rifle. He knows its capabilities, its limitations, and its controls to the...

Hiya, I'm starting to do a little research on one of my projects. I am in need of finding a gunsmith service that works on .308 Caliber AR rifles-- specifically the DPMS LR-308. I considered doing some of the work myself, but I did know I'd need a professional for one step, and doing...

Hiya. I am about to replace my A1 upper receiver and Forearm on my LR-308. I am debating whether to do the job myself or send it to DPMS for the work. From what I can see, I believe that I can do the job fairly easily, but I was wondering if there is anything I am not seeing that...

Did some pondering today. One of my projects (among many) is finding the best fit for a 1x4 optic to put on my AR-15. It has occured to me that there is simply NO perfect 1x4 optic out there. So... Perhaps it is just a vent, and perhaps there is an off-chance that some reputable...

Hiya... I wanted to avoid a thread high-jack and would really like to gather some information on the following optics that I am considering for my AR-15. I am really looking for information on durability as well as any other tidbits you may have which may include clarity, customer support...
