Inflammatory title I realize, but let me qualify the question. Having read yet another “I don’t want a Mk IV” thread I felt this sort of discussion was High Road worthy.
What I think I know from reading threads is that the Mk II is the pinnacle of perfection (unless a Mk I owner shows up to...
After nearly 16 months of waiting on Uncle Sam to send my tax return I was finally rewarded this week when my check finally cleared the bank, which afforded me the luxury of purchasing a few more Mark IV Ruger magazines. Hunting said magazines down at reasonable prices has been another matter...
As luck would have it, one of my oldest friends took a fall on Friday when a board on her back landing gave way (some “handiman” used 3/4” trim as decking) and the call went out to me to help repair it. I keep a standing date at the gun club for Saturday mornings and had planned a road trip to...
Thought I’d share my procedure for adjusting magazines, or “tuning” for reliability. The below are a pair of Ruger Mark III 22/45 magazines that were modified to work in a Mark IV which was purchased without factory mags.
Starting at a safe location such as the range, insert a loaded magazine...
A few weeks ago I asked after opinions on the Tandemkross Kraken complete lower from any owners. If you have read that thread you will have seen the unboxing with close-ups which I will include here as well, but much of the following will be review which can be skimmed or skipped over to simply...
Curious if anyone has ordered one complete with upgrades and your thoughts on it. I placed my order last week after holding out a few months so I’ve got a couple weeks for y’all to build the hype up.
Most know Henry offers Special Edition rifles but for those living under rocks or new to the world of firearms I thought I’d share.
I will freely admit that the H004ES is not in any way 2.5x better than the basic H001 .22lr despite that being the price differential between them. I will...
I figured I’d post this as I was recently inside of mine to clean it and thought to snap some pictures. This is the same procedure used for Browning’s SA-22.
Step 1, after removing the action from the barrel is to draw the bolt back. The “C grip” makes this easy to perform step 2 which is...
Some here with eidetic memory may recall my having owned a 10/22 Carbine after decades of shooting them but none to call my own. When the fourth of those Rugers finally made its way to the safe I had no more than checked the box before a friend offered me double to once again go without...
I’m not talking about an imminent invasion, more of a now banned foreign rifle that’s found a permanent home and will soon head to the woods for prolific squirrel gettin.
While perusing tables at a local gun show I ran across this Norinco 22 ATD for a reasonable negotiated sum. The next...
I was working, all I bought this week was gas for the car so regale us all with your amazing firearms related finds! If a sale is still on, post it up to share, pictures always appreciated!
Just an alert that the Vortex Venom is on sale at Palmetto State Armory for $169.99 and free shipping. Both 3 MOA and 6 MOA versions are available, I have no affiliation with the seller, just a repeat customer.
Im thinking of it as an $80 RDS since I ordered a Keltec PMR from PSA at $80...
Having been inspired recently by @Mr.Revolverguy I set out to improve my already great little Browning. Having had a few feed problems due to weak magazine springs, I gave Tandemkross the nod and ordered replacement Green Springs. Not wanting to quit too soon I also ordered the Gearbox sear...
I’ve wanted a Ruger .22 since the Mark II came out and with the Mark IV’s arrival I think I’m ready to take the plunge. What’s giving me cold feet is the decision between the standard aluminum frame and the aluminum or polymer frame 22/45.
I’ve ruled out the SS based on weight, I own 1...
I’ve wanted an Eotech holographic sight from the first time I looked through one nearly a decade ago. I was feeling a bit froggy this morning so on the way is an EXPS2-0 that I’m looking forward to.
Now the part I haven’t yet answered for myself; where it should reside. 16” middy, 10.5”...
Twins might be stretching the description a bit though both are cut from the same cloth. The differences in appearance are compliments of a robust aftermarket giving these rifles more support than any other muzzleloader I can think of.
Having owned multiple T/C rifles I count myself a fan...
I ordered a Model B this week as an anniversary gift for my wife who wants to begin tumbling rocks. My question is, do any of you use the low speed rock tumbler for brass in place of the faster model specific to reloading?
I’m sure it works, just curious if it doubles or triples the time...
Anyone have a primer or some insight? If I understand what I’ve read, coupling a LW BCG and carbine buffer with an AGB should allow for a softer impulse that stays on target thanks to the reduced reciprocating mass.
My question is whether the difference is substantial in a 10.5” carbine...
Yes it’s ho-hum. No, it won’t win any caliber wars. I do hope this new tube will be filling the freezer come Fall. With Youth Season around the corner it is high time to put up the kids’ ARs for a bit and get them familiar with the tools that feed them. I’ll be swapping barrels back to...
