    What is the lightest trigger that you’d put in an AR SBR/pistol?

    I bought a drop in trigger at 4.5lbs still in the packaging. My AR pistol has the worst trigger of my collection, so I’m considering putting this trigger in it. Lightest rifle I’ve ever done is 4.5lbs. I personally wouldn’t go lower. Just curious how light others would go?

    Dumb Question: What makes a Noveske Stripped upper so valuable?

    Not being sarcastic in any way, but I got an advertisement for a Noveske stripped upper and it had a significant price tag on it. I’m genuinely interested in knowing what makes it so valuable. Can someone reasonably expect advantages and better performance from this product. My ARs are...

    What the heck is going on in this story...

    http://koin.com/2017/09/08/police-man-with-rifle-arrested-in-sw-park-blocks/ So much information missing... doesn't seem on the surface that he did much wrong. Some are suggesting they used the new gun grab law in Oregon to arrest him.

    Who has a real A2 butt plate?

    I've ordered two from reputable places that say that they are Mil-spec but they turned out to be completely made of plastic. I remember the door being metal. Not a big deal, but I don't want to guess the next time I want one. Thanks

    Do they still do Squeeze Bores?

    I really don't know much about the subject, but I recalled today a distant memory of a squeeze bore being discussed in a documentary or something. It was pre Internet (at least for me) but I was intensely interested in the subject. Not having any research material available at that moment...

    Should I grind this down? 6.8 magazine.

    Still haven't fired this gun yet, but checking things out. The case is catching on the front of the mag. I'll let the pictures do the talking. I say yes, but I wanted to ask. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is the AR market going to survive under current conditions?

    Now we are past panics, how long can it go at all these low prices. There's combo deals, free magazines with every order. I'm getting premium parts at prices I never imagined. What's the future? Will we see an expanded premium market? Will the milspec and budget suppliers go under. I was...

    What's the most spectacular missed shot you've witnessed?

    Mine is probably minor but it astounded me all the same. A visiting brother in law wanted to go pig hunting and I said "sure". He was alway the cocky deer hunter type, or so he lead on, granted he had never night hunted. So we went out, I had my mini 14 (converted red spotlight that used a...

    Well, that was easier!

    I have long been critical of the Texas CHL process: Over burdensome Over expensive Excessively long process Excessively long wait This was highlighted even more after moving to another state and seeing a much simpler and faster process in Washington state. Well now I just did a renewal for...

    Should I build a 16" 6.8spcII upper?

    I have my wish list filled for different 5.56 ARs. I just made a 300aac pistol and I have a spare 5.56 pistol upper. I was thinking of Rebarreling the 5.56 pistol upper into a 6.8spc carbine to share a lower with my varmint rifle. Eventually I will get into reloading, but with intention only...

    Two laws being proposed in WA

    http://www.king5.com/mb/news/politics/two-proposals-to-tighten-washington-state-gun-laws/395807388 I do agree to securing your guns, but not on an annual semi auto permit, or any permit really.

    I did something y'all might think is odd.

    I always add something unusual to every rifle. I have one with a boar's tooth in a hand woven sling. I have one with leather grips.... some with vintage scopes. As a kid I remember liking nameplates and data plates from old machinery so I decided to add one to an upper. Took me a while to decide...

    Do any of you have a distressed AR? Intentionally or Thru Time

    Hello members, I'm interested in doing some distressed finish on an AR, might sound odd, but I like worn looking guns. I don't have the time to carry them around to do it organically any longer. I know that there's duracoat kits and all but I'm more interest in distressing the original finish...

    Oregon occupiers found not guilty

    http://koin.com/2016/10/27/jury-reaches-verdict-in-malheur-case/ So after a former BLM employee was discovered on the jury and removed, the occupiers were found not guilty on all but one charge. I know we had a heated discussion about this last year.

    My full cool-aid immersion into 300blk is complete

    Ok finally finished I think... found a near pristine weaver vintage k1 scope with dot crosshairs. The finish of the weaver actually matches the nitrided barrel and bolt carrier Found the shockwave brace real cheap, so I gave it a try.... it's a nice way to prop the gun in the safe. That's the...

    Got a challenge for you: Identify Andy Griffith's guns.

    Been trying to guess what guns are in the rack in Mayberry's Sheriffs office/courtroom/jail while Andy is committing acts of official oppression, I can't, the scenes cut away too fast for me to determine what they are. Mostly bolt guns and a shotgun or two.
