In a thread I started RE my dealing with McMillian stocks, I noticed that there were two lines of thought. 1) making an agreement with a customer is giving your word. Keeping it is important, and affects future dealings with that customer and others. There is no excuse for breaking your...

I posted yesterday on my ordering an 'internet special' stock from McMillian for a Mauser 98 action. Yeah, they took my CC number and said it would ship today. Well, today I get a message to call them. I call, and the lady (Eileen) advised me that they made a mistake....they no longer had that...

Just found (and ordered) an A2 stock on internet special at their site for $300 including shipping. Coolness factor is high. 98 Mauser action, Varmint bbl channel, molded-in woodland camo, adj. cheekpiece, and decelerator recoil pad. Oh, 2 front swivels, 1 rear swivel. Set up and ready to...

A while back, I bought a Parker-Hale M86 target stock from Gibbs Rifle Company. They no longer have that stock. I'm making a copy of the Canadian C3a1/M82 sniper rifle. I re-worked my other stock, so it doesn't have the look. Anyone know where I can get one of these stocks?

I've noticed a lot of people suggesting the single-stage presses over the progressives because of cost. When I started, I knew I wanted to eventually go with a progressive, but I wanted to go as cheap as possible. I also wanted the maximum flexibility and accuracy. My solution (and the one...

Specifically, the fabled black-tip 115gr subgun stuff. I wasn't impressed.....they clock it at 1180fps out of a 4" barrel. Geeezze, the white-box Winchester 115gr clocks 1190fps out of a 4" barrel. The 124gr IMI ball clocked 1100fps. All numbers from manufacturers. I was REALLY expecting...

I need to know who it is that modifies the pistol grip/mag housing to accept the greasegun or Thompson mags. I have an Uzi I'd like to convert to 45acp, but I don't want to experiment on expensive parts, and I want 20 or 30 rnd mags. Any help?????:confused:

Who is it out west that does conversions of Uzi grip/mag housings to accept either greasegun or Thompson magazines (can't remember which)? If you know, shoot me an e-mail asap.

I got my two stock blanks from Cali'co a few weeks ago, so here's the eval...... The first was a utility grade walnut. Very good, straight grain, came out beautifully with a linseed finish. Well worth the money. The second was an 'A Fancy' grade. Fairly pricey. Didn't even get to...

Is it still produced? What is it running? Can the stock be replaced with a speed-feed or pistol grip?

FOX is reporting that LE is responding to a shots fired call at an industrial park in Goshen, Indiana. Up to 35 people shot in a factory there. Mayor confirmed count. More to follow.

and I ain't happy. The stocks are supposed to be shaped and ready for final sanding on the outside, and 96% inletted. Bull. The stock I got was VERY roughly shaped (a lot of it done with a dremel, apparently). The flat bottom of the fore-end is cut at an angle , and would have to be re-cut. The...

Got ignored on the original thread, so..... Given that NATO subgun ammo (high-pressure stuff) is the preferred fodder for uzis, why is there a warning on the Ranger SXT boxes (127gr +P+) to NOT use it in uzis? I'd like to know, 'cause I usually like to try any new loads I come across in my...

I was on-line at the FALfiles, when I got an IM pop-up. What is strange is that it was from a person I have never spoken with, nor did I recognize. The person claimed to be 'bubbles' from AR15.com. I haven't posted at AR15.com in MONTHS. Further, I've never been in a thread with anyone called...

I had been registered over at MIZZMAGAZINE:rolleyes: for quite some time. Always thought that getting both views on issues involving women was a good idea. I just sent their webmistress an e-mail to delete my account. Why? heh.... I kinda got ticked over the general idea that only...

Has anyone used this stuff? Is it any good? How does it compare to Fed Gold Medal Match? How about the IMI 175gr Match ammo? Any good?

I originally posted this in the Smithy, but I guess not too many people noticed it. I've found the perfect cleaner for cosmoline (even dried!). I use a chemical called Formula 2050 produced by a company called CMT to clean my woodworking tools (router bits and stuff). I tried it on some...

I just got some new Uzi mags from DSA today, and they were packed heavilyin cosmoline. I was really dreading the job of cleaning them up, so I did something really unusual. I went out to the garage and got my bottle of CMT Formula 2050 (used for cleaning router bits and saw blades) and sprayed...
