      Has anyone used Parkville Knife & Tool Sharpening (just north of Baltimore City)?

      There is a place called Parkville Knife & Tool Sharpening that advertises sharpening services for knives (even serrated), axes, chainsaws, mower blades, etc. It's located in Parkville, Maryland, just north of Baltimore City. Has anyone used them, or have anything good or bad to say about them...

      Pin Punch snapped off in Bolt

      FGT1958, I'm not sure if you know this but there are some AR bolts (such as at least some LMT bolts) where the ejector pin can only go into and out of the hole on one side of the bolt. With those bolts, if you look carefully, you can see the slightly different hole sizes for the ejector...

      Eezox discolored and thicker

      Also, don't buy Eezox in the plastic containers because it breaks down the plastic (not very noticeable) and the Eezox changes (very noticeable). The Eezox gets thicker much more quickly. 7A38

      Piston upper for M16

      I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. But the AK is a "long stroke" piston design. The only long stroke piston design for an AR is made by Primary Weapons Systems. Also, the PWS piston and carrier is essentially one piece, and very much like an AK design. PWS doesn't sell kits...

      Great day at the with my wife.

      I'm pretty sure I know who that employee is. He's probably the same one that many, many people had problems with. He no longer works at Continental. I think the owners finally had enough. 7A38

      Done with cleaning rods & bore snakes?

      I have also used PatchWorm kits for years. The products and service are great. They are also a small Maryland company. So it feels good to support them. 7A38

      Reflex blurry, any fixes?

      You can set up a rear sight which is an aperture (hole) between your eye and sight. So you look through the rear sight to see the red dot and target. One possibility to to use a fold down rear sight and only raise it for long distance shots or shots where you want a lot of accuracy. This may...

      MSP issuing warrants after online purchases of AR parts

      That sounds great. But no one (not even the police) can agree on what keeping your nose clean means. 7A38

      SAF needs immediate help

      swinokur, thank you for letting us know about this need. I donated. By the way, I am an NRA Life Member and opted out of all junk mailings and phone calls years ago. It worked out perfectly. I haven't gotten anything from them since (other than my monthly magazine). 7A38

      Cleaning your rifle

      Have you tried Bore Tech Eliminator? I was shocked at how well it works to clean copper (and carbon) from a bore. It has worked better for me than anything else including Sweet's 7.62. Even though it cleans copper out very well, the weird thing is that there is no ammonia odor (or any...

      Vortex Optics customer service

      I don't know which Vortex PST scope you had. But I have heard of your twisted reticle problem happening a few other times with their Viper 1-4X scopes. The glass with the reticle etched on it starts to rotate because of a problem with the adhesive (too weak or not enough or something like...

      Dust Covers

      When you get a chance, can you post pics of some of your custom take down pins and charging handles? Also, are your charging handles made out of 6061 or 7075 aluminum? 7A38

      Baltimore Area Gunsmith Recommendation

      Abulg1972, your thoughts and comments are appreciated. Also, I believe Rumnhammer, who gave the strong endorsement of the gunsmith at Duffy's, actually owns or works at Duffy's. 7A38

      Glock Basic Armorer's Course

      To anyone who has taken this recently, did this course spend much time discussing the Gen IV guns/parts/differences? I know someone who took this course about a year and a half ago. He said they spent almost no time on Gen IV guns/parts. But that was shortly after the Gen IVs were...
