These days I live in Colorado and now we are subjected to a three day waiting period. Does anyone know how private sales are conducted with the three day waiting period and the background check? Can both parties agree to terms via email, them meet at an FFL to complete the sale with background...

Ruger finally released some GP100s in 5½", 22lr. 10 rounds of loving. I wasn't missing out this time. I bought it for plinking and target shooting. Nice fit and finish, not a Korth but very nice for Ruger. Trigger isn't too bad but I'll be doing shims and a trigger job. Here's some pictures...

I have a Palmetto PA-10 in 308 for long distance. I'm going to add a Palmetto 6.5cm upper. Debating getting another lower but I'm thinking it's cheaper to have one nice lower with fancy trigger and stock. The savings (~$750) could go towards a scope on the 6.6cm upper. I think this pretty...

Kinda looking at a PSA AR-10 in 308. Some of the reviews point out it's not DPMS. What does DPMS mean with respect to an AR-10? What are the implications of an AR-10 not being DPMS? Do PSA AR-10s use standard, ubiquitous Magpul PMAGs?

I just underwent a medical procedure with hospitalization. Almost every day I was asked if I was at risk or wanted to die. Several times I was given a paper survey with all sort of intrusive mental health questions. I declined to answer any surveys and replied to the question about wanting die...

I was considering an automatic knife. I've always liked Buck knives. I want under 3.5" for Colorado law. Buck 112 automatic is a candidate. General purpose for home projects and sheath carry while camping. Presently I use a Buck 501 bought in 1978. Open to suggestions for an automatic knife...

What bedding material do you use? Low cost epoxy? JB Weld? Fancy dedicated bedding resin/epoxy? Do you add powered metal such as stainless steel or aluminum? Background: - I'm fixing to pillar and bed a couple 700 actions into Boyd laminated stocks. - I'm also adding Magpul magazine...

This discussion is aimed at office dwellers that occupy a cubical in a large office setting. As was "fired dude". In the now locked thread about the guy that carried at work, fired dude, I didn't see anyone bring up what I thought was important. I'm a cube rat and I've considered bringing a...

I recently purchased a RIA 5" 1911 in 9mm. (Single stack) It came with a single magazine, appears to be ramped. I've learned there are two magazine types for a single stack 9mm 1911, ramped and spacer. Is there a preferred magazine type? The RIA 1911 only came with a single magazine and I...

If a rifle and scope is properly set up for me I can close my eyes, shoulder the rifle and when I open my eyes the scope is setting perfectly in my field of view. (Closed eye position test) I started thinking about this and realized for me there's a common specification that can help me set up...

I want to buy a handgun for a friend in another state. I'd pay for it on GunBroker and have it shipped to his FFL/LGS. I would never see a 4473 for this handgun. He would fill out a 4473 and take possession of the handgun in his home state. I would never take possession of the handgun. Legal or...

Does squaring up (blue printing) a recent manufactured Remington 700 bolt action increase accuracy? I'm not an expert by any stretch. When I think about how a round feeds into the chamber it appears to my unknowlegable mind that the most important component of an accurate rifle is the chamber...

I bought ARA Gen 2 Little Bastard muzzle brakes in 30cal and 6.5mm. I wondering why there's nothing in 223/556. Is it that 223/556 doesn't need a brake? I have a bolt varmit 223 and figured it can't hurt.

I'm working on a project with more money than sense/knowledge. I have a Boyds At-One stock for a Remington 700 action and I've ordered a Criterion Remage barrel. I plan to add pillars, bed the action and recoil lug. I'll upgrade to the NSS tapered precision recoil lug. Once I add pillers...

I'm replacing the Remington factory synthetic stock with adjustable pull and comb so friends and family can enjoy 1000yard shots with 6.5cm. I've always liked Boyds laminate stocks for the price and stiffness. I don't have any trouble bedding a 700 action into a Boyds laminate stock. The Boyds...

I have a Remington 700 SPC 223 24" 1:12 that I added a Timney trigger, bedded Boyd stock and proper pull for me. I consigned it to my LGS a few months ago without any interest. I need a project and converting it to 6.5cm sounds fun. Some questions: - Criterion Remage Barrels cost the same...

I'm setting up an AR with a 4-14x42 scope. I bought medium height rings which set the front scope bell about ⅛" off the picatinny rail. Everything I read says to set up a scope just like I have it. But now I can't get a good view of the eye piece. I have to press my cheek into the stock's...

I have an Stag Varmint 556 AR15 with a 24" barrel, rifle length gas tube and A2 buffer and spring. I ordered a PSA 16.1" upper with BCG and CH. I was hoping I could just swap out uppers but some simple research has alerted me that I also may need to swap out the buffer and spring. What say ye...
