      Flintlock Research

      So I've been wanting to get a flintlock rifle for a while. Preferably a Pennsylvania or Kentucky style. I know the process of loading and firing. But before I buy anything, what I would like to research/study is the in depth details: which powder is best, the right charge amount for the type I'm...

      Pinned & Welded Muzzle Removable

      I currently have an AR with a pinned and welded muzzle birdcage and am considering getting it removed to put a different device on. Any gunsmith recommendations in the SOMD area? I usually enjoy doing this type of stuff myself but don't want to ruin the barrel or current birdcage.

      .30-06 Mystery Ammo

      Anyone know what type of .30-06 this is? Was in my grandfathers collection so I don't know how old they could be. Think it's probably some sort of match ammo but couldn't find any real information on it. End of Cartridge says REM .30-06 UMC SPRG. So what kind is it and is it safe to shoot given...

      AR 80 Lower Problems

      I've done a previous 80% build a couple years ago and it turned out fine. This current one however is giving me some trouble. Two questions for y'all: 1) After completing the drilling and milling for the FCG and attempting install, the hammer does not make contact or engage with the sear. I...

      Milling out Rem. 700 stock for Magpul Kit

      Hello Everyone. I want to upgrade my rem 700 synthetic ADL stock to accept the Magpul magwell kit. I'd rather not have to purchase an additional stock that would already be "kit ready", but at the same time don't want to screw up the one I have. Has anyone had success in this process or know...

      Out of State Handgun Registration?

      Hello All, I'm interested in purchasing a handgun from a friend in another state. However, he purchased it via private sale from another individual who possibly got it from another private sale. Needless to say there's a rabbit trail of "unknown" owners. Anyone know of a way to have it...

      Conceal with 80%???

      Don't know if this is the "proper" forum for this but here ya go. I'm currently in a profession that will (hopefully) make it easier for me to obtain a conceal permit. I built an 80% kit a while ago and want to get my conceal. I know that having an 80% is legal as long as it is for "personal...

      P320 80%

      Hey All. So I'm building a P320 Kit and have put the trigger inside the modular insert (fire control unit) inside the grip. With everything assembled it appears that the--I'm going to call them "ears"-- are too tall so that when the slide is pulled back the striker doesn't make contact with the...
