    Intratec Tec-22 scorpion 10/2 mags

    So i've had an Intratec Tec-22 scorpion for years now. Tried all sorts of Ruger aftermarket 10/22 mags with it and only the RamLine black 25 rounder really feeds flawlessly in this gun. It has a little plastic slider piece on a spring on the back of it, seems like a sort of quick release lever...

    XD-9 Slide Lock Fails on Empty Mag

    So I bought my first XD, an older gen XD-9. Feels great in the hand, shoots to point of aim, no failures to feed or eject. Loved it for the first 300 rounds. Today I went to range, shot 2 mags no issues, and the 3rd failed to lock the slide the back on an empty mag. Thought it could be ammo...

    223 Rem powder H335 vs Varget

    So, i am tired of overpaying for the hazmat shipping fees for my powder, and just started reloading 223 rem (did lots of handgun loads, never rifle). I started loading H335 and some dogtown 55 and 62 grain FMJHPs, and some 40 grain V-max for my Contender pistol load. I had some reasonable luck...

    Lee PPM Leaks a bunch - any fixes?

    So I bought a new Lee powder measure tool (the red plastic with the pull handle. My old one works ok, but I replaced the center screw and it is loosy goosy and just cracked the powder housing, so thought I would replace. I know my original one must have been 10 years old, and when I would load a...

    Anyone try a Kel-Tec PLR-16 compensator/brake on an AR Rifle

    So, the PLR-16 from Kel-Tec has an optional AK-74 shorty style muzzle brake that actually throws gasses only to the sides (no top or bottom holes at all). While, on this AR pistol using rifle loaded ammo (factory 223 rem), it is extremely effective at reduced muzzle jump, it tears the ears out...

    Reloading tricks to fit your chamber

    So, much of what I have read about reloading has a lot to do with the angle and diameter of the throat of the bullet/ and or case as it goes into your chamber and distance from rifle lands. Is it a stupid idea to get a case prepared, skip the powder and hand seat the bullet you are loading...

    Skipping the re-throating step

    Has anyone ever skipped one of the 3 steps using the Lee presses for 9mm luger or 45ACP? I'm talking about primer removal/sizing, then expand throat, then powder and bullet set - removing the throat expansion step? I tried this with a handfull of 45acp and 9mm luger, just doing a chamfer with...

    Welding repair - can anyone recommend a welder

    I have a floating aluminum handguard on a Tec-22 Intratec pistol that fell apart after a few hundred rounds of use due to some apparent poor welds. It is a black anodized two part gaurd, a perforated tube, and an endcap that has a welded threaded insert that screws the entire thing onto the...

    Is there a way to home harden a metal do it yourself style

    I have one of the near evil banned list Intratec Tec-22 Scorpions. The gun itself is one of my most fun plinkers other than my PLR-16 and of course my AKs. It runs 30 round magazines of 22LR in about 15 seconds just in semi auto mode. The problem with the gun is the steel that Intratec used...

    Parts For CZ-75 SP01

    So after the election i'm stocking up on spare parts for my "high capacity" autoloaders (semi-auto) pistols. One that is my favorite that I hope keeps chugging along is my CZ-75B SP01. I have researched the only weaknesses of these seem to be the extractor springs. I shoot a lot of crap ammo...

    Mosin Scope Mount That Stays Tight

    Has anyone found a method of getting those cheap scope mounts to stay tight on their Mosins? you know the kind that mounts with screws through the rear sight pin holes, and then moves around all over the place after 10 shots? I can't see any decent way to get that rotation issue to work with...

    CMP Garand Buyers - Do you really need some

    CMP Garand Buyers - Do you really need some sponsorship proof from some shooting academy or team to buy a Garand from CMP? If so, where do you get one? I searched my state and a bunch of high schools popped up. I'm a bit old to claim teaming with a group of highschool students. I would...

    Picked up a Winchester M1 Carbine

    Took it to the range and it wouldn't light any primers. Light strikes on all ammo types. There was a dent in the primers, but not heavy enought to set them off. On an M1, what is the most common cause of this? Do I need a new firing pin, or hammer? Hammer spring? How far should the firing...

    Baikal MP 153 Awesome!!!! If only it was hole.

    So I get my first Baikal MP 153 home, and start to clean it and put it together to hand cycle it. I'm in my garage and I put the barrel on, and then try to fit the plastic handgard on, and the little black plastic cap that held the mag spring goes off into neverland. I never did find it. I...

    Baikal MP153 Hi Viz or TruGlow Sight Upgrades?

    Anyone know how wide the ventilated rib is on a Baikal MP153? Also, has anyone upgraded their sights on it from the standard front bead? I'm looking at the Hi Viz and the Truglow pipes, but have no clue how to get them to stay on the rib. :)

    M1 Tough Decisions - Old School USGI Or AO/Kahr

    As with all my carbines, I tend to like to shoot them a lot. I'm stuck in a tough spot. The price of the decent shape Inland or other USGI original M1 carbines is high (start at 700 bucks and go way up from there. I noticed now that Kahr / Auto Ordinance offer what appears to be a close...
