The last year or so I've noticed that I seem to be having trouble aligning my pistol's sights left to right when I shoot with both eyes open. With both eyes open my groups are all to the left. They're consistent, just not where I want them. It doesn't seem to matter which gun it is, everything...

I bought 1000 200 grain SWC .45 ACP bullets from Magnus Bullets a while back and recently tried loading with them. What I found when attempting to adjust the seating die on my Dillon 650 (with Dillon dies) was very inconsistent seating depths from round to round. After cleaning the seating and...

So I picked up an M1 bayonet at the gunshow today. I've determined that the scabbard is Danish manufacture with FKF markings under the Danish crown stamping. The body is fiberglass with fake wood grain. On the blade right above the guard there is a stamping with the number 44 and some sort of...

So I've spent days looking for a scope for my new MKII FVSR. I think I've narrowed it down to these two: http://swfa.com/Vortex-3-9x40-Crossfire-Rifle-Scope-P51734.aspx http://swfa.com/Hawke-3-9x40-Panorama-Riflescope-P50909.aspx Basically I want something lowish power, with an...

So every 6 months or so I go through the collection, run a couple oil patches through the bore and wipe down the metal with breakfree to prevent rusting. When I pulled my Garand out of the safe (and by safe I mean one of those sheet metal lockers) this is what I found: It appears to be rust...

So I've got this wolf that I'd like to store for a while and want to make sure it's preserved properly . . . Er, rather, I've got some wolf 7.62x39 poly coat that I'd like to store for a while and was wondering what other people have done to prevent rust on the cases. I was thinking some...

I'm currently working on a precision AR project and ran across the Ameetec side charging upper. I thought this would be a particularly good idea for an AR that is going to be wearing a scope all the time but I can't find any info about it. Does anyone here have any experience with these uppers...

My paperwork should be back soon for my YHM Phantom suppressor for my AR-15. I'd like to play around with some sub sonic loads but don't want to have to shell out a buck per round or more. I found 3 subsonic loads on Accurate Powder's website but the heaviest weight bullet is a 75 grain BTHP...

Does anyone know where I can get some instructions for detail stripping a Smith & Wesson Model 41? Our university's gun club has a bunch that are in desperate need of some overhaul and replacement parts.

Does anybody know of anybody that makes a MOLLE pouch that holds Garand clips? I seem to remember seeing one on AR15.com but I don't know if it was something somebody custom made or if there is a company out there that makes them. I've seen the ones Comp-Tac makes but I don't know if they're...

I recently purchased three Stag Arms lower receivers and rebuilt my carbine on one of them. After I put on my Magpul M93 I noticed what seemed to be a .25 to .5 degree upward slope to the buffer tube. My suspicions were confirmed when I attached the upper and noticed the charging handle was...

This past Saturday I went to the range to shoot for the second time my new (to me) SIG 226 in 9mm. I kept having a problem with limpwristing the gun. Not enough to make it malfunction but enough so that it wouldn't lock open on an empty mag. My friend I was shooting with had no problems with...

A while back someone posted a link to a company that armored SUVs and installed motorized pop up browning M2s in the back. Does anybody know what the link to the company or thread is? I was talking to a friend about this and wanted to send her the link. I tried searching for various things...

Does anybody have a resource that describes how to detail strip a SIG 226? Until I got the SIG I didn't have a gun that I didn't know how to detail strip, and I'd like to keep it that way. :D

With colder weather approaching in the next couple of months I have been looking around at gloves to replace what I normally use. I'm looking for something thin enough to not affect my grip too much but warm enough that I don't end up with numb fingers. I have a pair of mechanics gloves that I...

A friend of mine was researching various guns to find one that his mom might like to carry. He came accross the Glock 28 and found that it was banned from importation. Does anybody know why??

I've got some money burning a hole in my pocket and those Sig P226s from CDNN are looking mighty tasty. Always wanted a Sig but didn't want to dole out the $800someodd bucks for a new one. I'd love to see pics of people's Sigs. Especially two tone 226's.

I found these two magazines at a gun show today that said they were for the Air Force .22 practice kits. I assumed that they were for the M261 kits (bought one from a member here a while back). When I got home I tried them in my rifle and they didn't work. Does anybody know what these...

I'm looking into getting a new backpack for my last semester of college as I gave my old one to my sister who is starting college. I've narrowed my choices down to two. The Maxpedition Falcon or Condor. I really like the design of the Falcon but I'd like to be able to use this as a pack for...

I recently purchased my first 1911 (RIA Government model). While looking around online for various parts and upgrades (sort of a project gun for me :) ) I saw that some parts are meant for series 70 and some for series 80 etc. What is the difference between the different series? and which...
