    Two rifle tests in one week!

    Polenar & Garand Thumb both posted rifle mud test videos: Polenar: GT: TLDW version: The results from both pretty much match the InRange content. AKs go down faster & ARs state running longer than people expect. BSW

    Well, had this happen today...

    Yugo M67 with 1976 headstamp, fired from vz58. Got a face full of smoke but no debris. Rifle looks ok and I'll check headspace before I shoot it again. I had another case separation last summer from the same lot, also in the vz58. Needless to say I won't be shooting anymore of that lot. BSW

    some shooting with a vz58

    Did some shooting yesterday and ended the day with the vz58 at 300 yards using Yugo M67 from 1983. I had the Aimpoint on the vz58 when I was shooting (the pic is post cleaning). The tan target (left most) is visible in the background on the 1st picture and is circled in green in the 2nd. The...

    IWI Galil ACE 556 failure to eject

    Last month I started having FTEject problems with the Galil ACE in 556. I hadn't cleaned the rifle in a couple of months (I had just been adding lube) so I filed stripped and cleaned it throughly. Still had FTEject, so I then detail stripped the bolt and tried again. The pics document the...

    Galil ACE dust cover repeatability testing

    I was curious about the repeatability of the optics mounted on the dust cover of the Galil ACE 556 NATO rifle when it's removed for cleaning and replaced, so I decided to shoot some groups after removing and replacing the dust cover. Targets were shot at a known distance 200 yard range, optic...

    more Galil ACE 556 detail pictures

    Took a few more pics of some of the engineering detail work on the Galil ACE 556. BSW Bolt face detail. IWI is using a AK74esque extractor design. You can also see the notch on the front of the right (as the bolt is in the gun, left in this picture) locking lug. That notch is where the BHO...

    Galil ACE 556 NATO

    Shot a Galil ACE in 556 at our local rifle match Saturday and have a few observations: 1) This rifle fits me. It doesn't feel like a 8lb (loaded) rifle when shouldered and shooting. 2) Ergonomics are great. All of the controls are easily reachable, if you're right handed like me. 3) Had 1...

    Review of the Wolf A1 (Taiwan T91) AR upper

    more dusty rifle videos

    Well, we did it again and covered more rifles in rock dust and shot them, just to see what would happen. Here’s some more of the dusty rifle video we shot last month with re-dos of the SCAR and AR and three bullpups. The results were kinda surprising. Links here: SCAR 16 (redo with...

    Just found out there are available: http://shop.shootingsight.com/Beretta-ARX-100-two-stage-trigger-BRX-TRG.htm I've got his SCAR and Tavor triggers, both of which are very nicely designed and well made. Needless to say, I ordered my ARX trigger last night. BSW

    Dirty rifles.

    Took some rifles and rock dust out to the range a couple weeks ago. We dusted a Mini-14, a AR15, Beretta ARX, FN SCAR, and a Arsenal SKR-107FR (AK47). Things did not turn out as you might expect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=synlZgnTnXg BSW

    Beretta ARX 100 accuracy with different ammo.

    I took the ARX-100 out Wednesday to try some different ammo and see if pulling the barrel resulted in group size shifting. Some things to consider: 1) Range was 100 yards. 2) I was using a Aimpoint 2MOA optic. 3) I have astigmatism. 4) It was a cloudy day. 5) Combining 2,3,4 means I...

    Beretta ARX 100 in 556 NATO design and wear at 500 rounds.

    I’ve had this rifle for about 6 weeks and have about 500 rounds through it without any real stoppages, except during a rifle match, when a round popped out of the top of a magazine on a bolt open reload. Some things that might not be apparent from the pictures: There is very little aluminum...

    PTR-32 with Yugo M67: FTEject and solution

    I picked up a PTR-32 as I have several thousand rounds of Yugo M67* ammo and the AKs just aren't cutting it for the rifle match, which frequently has 8" target at 300 yards. My AK is a 4MOA rifle, you can do the math. With the stock locking piece (60 degree from what I gather) I was getting...

    Chipped AUG trunnion?

    Found this bright shiny spot on the trunnion last time I cleaned the AUG (A3 model, serial 6USAxxx). I don't remember the scallop being there... I didn't find any extra metal pieces floating around but I'm probably not going to shoot the rifle until I hear back from Steyr USA...

    Beretta ARX-100 hitting dealers

    I'm starting to see the ARX-100 (the 556 NATO version, not the .22) on gunbroker and other places. Prices are under $2000, which is less than the FN SCAR. Interesting design that emphasizes ambidexterity with selectable ejection and mirrored controls. BSW

    New Mini-14 FTEject

    Like the total says, I got a new Mini-14 (582 series, new in out of the box) that I'm having failures to eject with. Fired 140 rounds today, using Ruger OEM mags, mix of PMC .223 and IMI 556 NATO ammo, and I had 8 FTEj. Bolt is locking back on the empty mag, extraction is fine, each...
