    Question about Changing AR Uppers

    I agree also,as long as the scope is of decent quality it will not loose zero. I used to switch my Bushmaster AK/break shorty with a 24" fluted target barrel and would loose the zero on the target barrel in the switch. I got rid of the cheap BEC 3x9x40 scope and replaced it with a Nikon Pro...

    most painful rifle you've shot?

    The most painful shooter I own is a Swiss K31. After 10 or so rounds I put it away and try to get blood back into my shoulder.Something about steelbutt plates,what were they thinking? I like it's accuracy,the pain afterwards I can do without. The M1 Garand,SKS,and AR15 are a true joy to shoot...

    xd triggers what the big deal?

    My 2 cents I've put close to $150 extra into each Glock I own in-order to get the trigger I like.A 3.5lb connector,reduced lighter firing pin and slimed down safety plungers were my 3 conversions to the 3 Glocks I prefer to carry and shoot.I also prefer the short resets,eliminates all the...

    Why CCW permits should be allowed at age 18

    Indiana Home Depots' Another thought also,Home Depot is an anti-gun establishment also.If seen with pistol holstered with CCW on person,you will be asked to leave the property.

    Garand serial number/date of manufacture question

    Garand/date That sounds about right for date production. To me $899 sounds kind of steep for a gun show Garand. Theres several gun stores around Indy that sell Garands from various price ranges at $600 to $1k.I don't know where your located but used quality Garands seem almost a dime a dozen...

    Maintenance for a K-31 stock

    I sanded mine down with 3M 100 grit sand paper. I hand sanded it all the way through. It was a real ugly redish finish stained wood,and it looked like every beaver in the Swiss colony got to chew on my rifle.Or the Swiss little league used it as a t-ball bat and everybody hit with it. Well...

    Disgruntled UPS guy?

    The way we see it Another way to look at it is also: Think about how many times your package is handled. From the time it is picked up,off loaded at local station,loaded into a can,to off loaded at local station or hub,loaded into another can,sent off to regional hub,off loaded then...
