      I am going out to eat tonight in a restaurant in Gaithersburg. Can I carry or not?

      How do you Mount a Dot Scope on a pistol?

      It sits up rather high I have read it is too high to adjust elevation down to the target. It came with two 2mm(ish) rings I think those are supposed to go under the screws to help angle the scope down bit. I will try and see if I can get the elevation to work at 15 yards. It is also kind of big...

      How do you Mount a Dot Scope on a pistol?

      Finally finished! Not too bad this sight extractor works great for removing sights. However, the base for the red dot was way to wide to work with it. I realized this once I removed the stock rear sight which came out like butter. I had to put the new base on with a brass hammer. I covered the...

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      My bud did bring this to the range. He did a quick bore sighting using that Vortex reddot and a cheap bullet laser and his shots at the range were really good. Gun ran flawlessly. I think he did like 100 rounds of 556. The below is from I think he said 25 yards. Just the grouping in the center...

      Does anyone know if you can keep a loaded firearm in a vehicle parked in a MD metro lot (ie: while commuting to DC).

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      No - I got the Hera CQR Gen 1 for my 300BO build and loved it. So I bought this set for my recent 6.5 Grendel build. But I decided on the Magpul precision stock (and foregrip) instead and since I never send anything back, I still had it. So I gave the set to him. I am really liking this on this...

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      I was going to try to file it before I remembered I had a couple "oops" packs. I still have it and may. I will try it in some of my RRA lowers and see if it fits. Drill idea is top shelf! :beer:

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      You can see on the detent where the thin part is wider than the body of the pin. The body fit perfect that end part just stopped without going in.

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      Correct the spring was fine. The safety detent would go in but the end would not. Think of a .22 bullet in a chamber that is what it looked like with just the end being too big.

      Lunchtime AR build and minor issue.... **PIC**

      My friend got his first AR and we built it a couple hours ago over lunch. Went well! Roll pins went in easy because I got those punches with the hollow end to start the roll pins. And I remembered electrical tape to protect the lower this time. Issue we ran into was the safety detent pin would...

      What's it worth? Pair of 36 cal pistols....

      Thanks! Once converted, it uses .38LC (long colt). I had never heard of this before. I assume this can be shot out of a 36 caliber barrel?

      What's it worth? Pair of 36 cal pistols....

      Question: Can these be converted to a cartridge? I want to leave them black powder of course but curious if it is something that can be done. Notwithstanding that it would require registering as pistols and all the legal stuff around that.

      Ah yep makes sense and I actually have some. Thanks! :beer:

      What's it worth? Pair of 36 cal pistols....

      I got the Slixshot nipples in. Should I use any kind of loctite or just crank them down? Also I was a little disappointed with the holes having milling debris not cleaned out. I'll remove it before using.

      No love for Heckler and Koch?

      There are a couple transferrable VP70m's out there but not many. This was my first firearm ever. VP70z 1st polymer pistol (suck it, Glock!). Sidearm of the Colonial Marines (Aliens). Double-action only so it'll wear you out after a few mags.

      Fix Carry Handle A1 Upper - Here is a Better Option

      Why? You can get a carry handle to attach to a flat-top. Maybe it is time to sell my pair of Colts with integrated carry handles?

      Casting my own bullets

      What are you guys using for a pouring station? I was going to mount the smelter on a piece of plywood and support it with a couple saw horses in my backyard. I assume most people are not doing this indoors? What filter cartridges should I get for my mask? Or do I even need one? Also I will...
