      Was gifted a Hakko 6x15 scope today.

      A coworker surprised me with this today, can't really find much info on it, the scope itself just says "Hakko 6x15 Japan". Hakko doesn't appear to exist anymore, and I'm hitting dead ends regarding with regards to info for it. does anyone here have experience with these scopes? Furthermore...

      Snagged a stumpy upper

      Had to swing by a Gunshop I frequent this evening, walked out with a (what I'm told) police trade in 10.5 upper. It didn't come with a BCG or charging handle, but for $300, I won't complain. I'm looking for a couple of recommendations, namely, what BCG does everyone seem to be going with these...

      How much clearance is enough re:scope to receiver?

      Never really had to worry about this up to this point, but, I have a Bushmaster BA50 in .50 BMG. Mounted on top of it is a Nightforce Benchrest scope in a Larue Tactical mount. The initial spot on the receiver where the scope was mounted, left a gap between the bell of the scope and the receiver...

      Any Bushermaster BA50 owners here?

      Long story short, had a chance to snag a BA50 a couple of months ago. I'm planning to head out to WV next weekend and was planning to take it with me. However, when chambering any kind of round, the bolt fails to go home once the round is chambered. As best I can tell, the extractor claw won't...

      Ak 74 bolt carrier

      Buddy of mine gifted me an ak 74 receiver the other day. I've ruled out a complete parts kit due to the overly stupid prices I've seen, and have managed to track down a few of the vital parts separate, the only exception being the bolt carrier. It's my understanding that, the "stem" of a '74...

      SBR Fal, still worth doing?

      Hokay, over the last few months, I've been acquiring the parts needed to build an sbr fal. I've got pretty much everything I need at this point, albeit, stored in separate locations for the obvious reason. Problem is, with the election having gone the way it did, is there even a point in...

      Hyman Lebman 1911; IE guidance needed

      Snagged a gi rock island 1911 in the hopes I could build a clone of the ones used by either BabyFace or Dillinger. Would this be considered an SBR or AOW? Furthermore, I'm having to move back to MD, so I wouldn't start the paperwork on it until reestablishing myself as an MD resident. If this...

      Lee Enfield front sight screw tool?

      Put several boxes of 303 through my no4 today, at some point mid way through, I noticed it looked like my front sight had shifted. Chalked it up to my eyes and cried on. Fast forward to this evening, I'm cleaning said rifle and the front sight blade just slid right out of the base. Would anyone...

      Parker Hale M84 help

      Have an opportunity to get a stripped down parker hale M84 receiver. While I want to jump on it, I can't necessarily find the parts needed to make me want to commit. It sounds like the action is based roughly off the mauser, so could I use mauser parts to get this receiver up and going?

      Recommendations for 300 blk optic

      I'm almost done with my blackout build, and now find myself needing a scope to mount on it, I've got a budget of $400-$500. Realistically, I'm looking for something low powered (I've no intention of going past 100-150 yds). Don't know if it helps or not, but the rifle in question has a 16 inch...

      Questions about trench guns

      Trolled the search function for a bit and couldn't find what I needed, so I'll post it here. I've recently acquired a 1938 Model 12 that I'm turning into a trench gun. I've managed to track down all the bit's and pieces I'll need to do so, save for one thing; the rear sling swivel. Anybody here...

      Thoughts on the AR 180

      Was in a gander mountain yesterday and noticed an AR 180 that's been sitting there since before christmas. Initial handling of the rifle showed no signs of anything being broken or out of place, and something about it just seemed right. The price tag is $920 (I can't really outright afford it...

      An egyptian FN49 followed me home today

      ...Or rather, the receiver for one did :innocent0 Saw this on a vendors table this morning and felt the price was right, so home with me it came. Haven't had much chance to figure out a year of manufacture for it; But, I've been able to track down some of the bigger parts for it (barrel, bolt...

      Building an RPD

      Bit of background on this one. The shop I'm working at has it's FFL 07 and SOT, so we decided to get a couple of RPD kits to build as range rental machine guns. We got 2 semi auto receivers from DSA, and polish RPD kits from military gun supply. It looks relatively easy for the most part, the...

      Winchester 1400 Mk2 ejector issues

      Hey guys, I've got a Winchester 1400 mk2 with an ejector that won't stay in place. When I do get it to stay in place and assemble the shotgun, I can't get the action to open. What kinda fix do I need for this thing?

      Recommend a good press

      To those of you who built Aks before the ban, what type of press did you use for removal/installation of barrels? The shop I work for has a couple of '74 kits in that are waiting to be built, but as of now, we have no press. I need suggestions for a suitable press for Ak builds, as well as work...

      Anyone going to be at Delmarva Sporting Clays tomorrow?

      I'll be heading out with a friend to DSC around noon tomorrow if anyone else is going to be there. I'm going to see if I can't get my '03a4 and my 6.5 swede build sighted in. I'll also have a few other toys.:D

      1919a4

      I've been thinking about snagging a 1919a4 parts kit for a while now. Are we still allowed to build semi autos outta these kits in the PRM, or did that go out the window with 281? Also, has anyone here ever built one? If so, how difficult are they to build? I feel like it would be worthwhile to...

      School me on 1903a4s

      As previously mentioned in the PGS thread I started, I won't be able to build a 1911 as my second project in 4th. There was a vendor at a gun show with a couple of stripped down Remington '03a3 receivers, so I decided to pick one up. With regards to the guidelines for our projects in 4th, we...
