    Armorer Training ???

    I know this is gonna be an oddball question, and it's probably not in the right forum either so here goes. I'm looking into a possible career change and becoming an armorer. How would one go about getting training to work for a government position in this field? What I'm looking for is some...

    Can it be done: AR-10 chamber brush cleaning an AR-15

    I live in the Boise area and I had to buy a new chamber brush and a new bore brush this weekend so I stopped by Cabela's and they told me to goto the "tactical rifle store" in Boise, meaning NOT Sportsman's Warehouse. I get there and the gentleman at this store says he doesn't have them in...

    Authentic MG42 / Ruger 10/22 dress up parts

    Okay guys .... I need your collective help on this. I have a good buddy of mine that just bought a Ural motorcycle. It's a 2WD Russian motorbike with a sidecar, and just for kicks he'd like to mount his dressed up MG42 Ruger 10/22 on it using a pintle mount. Has anyone ever even heard...

    Range report: Ambi-Safety/Mags for AR-15 & Used German AK Mags

    Okay so this weekend I went to Deer Lodge, MT with some friends for a little get together and took the toys out with me. I bought the AR-15 ambi-safety selector from CTD and installed it in less than 15 minutes, and it actually took me longer to find the right tools for the job than it did to...

    Training material: AR15

    I'm a leftie and have a right handed Bushmaster that I want to install an ambi safety selector on, similar to the one from Cheaper Than Dirt's website (http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ARR049-3330-2701.html). What tools would I need, and what training aids (DVD's, books, etc.) would I need to...

    Bushmaster Customer Service: Something I had to share

    My wife bought me my first AR back in November during the Thanksgiving break, and I waited until the weather got warm enough to make all my adjustments to the sights. So since I figured this would be a good time to break it in a little and make sure it would feed properly, I did some shooting...

    Halographic sights: Options, models, and prices

    Realizing this might have been asked before, but I still am a bit new here ..... I'm looking at getting something like the EOTech 512 for both my AR's but I really don't want to break the bank. The last time I went to the range someone there had a Bushnell that looked just like the 512, but...

    Bianchi M12 holster and SA-XD 5 inch in .45

    Does anyone know if the Bianchi M12 holster used by the military for the M9/92FS Baretta pistol will work with the Springfield XD .45 with a 5 inch barrel? I'm a leftie and because of that my options are limited I know, but I'd like to buy a shoulder rig I can use with a pistol belt (aka the...

    Thoughts on the full size Springfield XD .45

    A friend of mine took me out to an IDPA pistol match last month and now I'm hooked. I've always been a rifle guy and although I liked his Kimber (had some misfeeds due to reloaded ammo) everyone I know has raved about the full sized Springfield XD in .45. The wife said as long as this is what...

    New AWB in the works

    This might not be the right place for it, but since it affects rifles more than anything I figured I would put this here. A Democrat from New York state, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, has decided to reintroduce the AWB with added weapons and conditions. Here's a link for the legislature she's...

    Ruger 10/22 question - is it worth it ?

    Saw it in Wal-Mart today .... It's a longer barrel 10/22, stainless steel, and the barrel seems to be heavier. They listed it for $219.99 and I'm thinking of bringing it home ..... is this a good deal? Also, where can I find the Weaver style rail for it? Thanks. Kris

    Where do all of you buy ammo from?

    Can anyone tell me where they by their ammo from ? I live in Idaho near the Air Force Base in Mountain Home and I don't have a record, so all the laws for buying ammo and having it shipped to me aren't a problem. I just need some decent plinking ammo for my Bushmaster and Norinco SKS...

    New production M1 Carbine: Are they around ?

    Folks .... My dad had one and it went away when my him and my mom got the big "D" many years ago, and I loved it and have always wanted one for myself. Does anyone still make them? I've seen the rebuilt IAI version buy man they're so sloppy I'd be afraid to fire one. Thanks. Kris
