    Pistol AR-15 - I'd like some thoughts from y'all

    Man, I have no idea. I did an AR pistol as kind of a range plinker several years back. It was a 10.5" barrel with a flaming pig on it to keep some of the obnoxious noise down. As far as terminal ballistics vs. barrel length, I have no good advice. Suppressors, I don't know much about super...

    Pistol AR-15 - I'd like some thoughts from y'all

    Well, glad to hear you found the right coating. The ol' 80% that I drilled out is still sitting on the shelf. It was more of a weekend project than a lower, I guess. So long as the side walls inside the lower are nice and straight you should be fine. I had problems with my drill bits walking...

    Pistol AR-15 - I'd like some thoughts from y'all

    Ok- I'm guilty of not reading the whole thread (or most of it for that matter, but it's late now)... so with all the other expense in this build, why in the world are you using an 80% lower? For what it's worth, I have an 80% that I did on a drill press- there's a long thread around here...

    Rugged Oculus 22

    For what it's worth, I like my MK III Lite (factory thread)... I would have had a MK II threaded and the front sight moved back, but damn it's expensive (way not VQ expensive, but still cost more than the new MK III Lite). Best upgrade for the MK III Lite is a Volquartsen sear and hammer. Huge...

    Burris FastFire 3 opinions

    Got to check out a Venom at the range a couple weeks ago- nice little sight. Also, Midway had a $75 off (or gift card? something...) on the Venom recently. Not sure if it's still going on or not-

    1911 link size

    Last time I fit a barrel to a 1911, I bought the link kit that had (maybe??) 5 links in it- work through them and see which one locks the barrel to the slide and the frame to the barrel. Or if you have my luck, none of them will work and you have to file the barrel to frame fit. DISCLAIMER: I...

    Purchasing a Broken Firearm

    I'd buy it- but only because I like projects. And the price would have to be right- even if it's a simple fix, I wouldn't go over 50% retail. They have an extremely limited number of buyers for a broken firearm.

    Ruger goes all 10mm!!

    I had a Gen 3 G20 for a little while. Shot great. Accurate. Manageable recoil. But I couldn't justify the round cost for punching holes in paper. If there were black bears in my area, sure. Given the squirrels and chipmunks that frequent this area, I just can't see the need. I sold the...

    Gun concealment project

    I would say that it has little to do with skill level and more to do with tools... Dang near everything on that table just involved pushing wood in a straight line along a tool's fence. Table saw, shaper table, and a few hand tools.

    Gun concealment project

    Nice! I always find it funny that people think it's easy to build a box... they say "it's just a box that's square".... yeah, well you try it.

    Bazooka Green Glock

    I'm not a fan of multi-color guns personally... the colors match each other fine, but don't belong on the gun in my opinion.

    M11/9 Slowfire upper I found today......

    That's awesome! I was seriously looking at the MAC's before going with that recent semi-auto subgun build.
