Maggie’s Funny & awesome pics, vids and memes thread (work safe, no nudity)

It was posted before, somewhere is a more in context video that includes the training aspect.

The size of the crowd is one thing that makes it sus but if you clock the video frame by frame the head snap doesn't match the pop. But, video can still do sketchy things because of frame rate so I searched.

Doesn't make it any less entertaining to watch.
Reminds me of those crazy Spetsnaz videos

Is it possible to re-thread a 5/8-24 carbon barrel?

Thanks All. Lesson learned for me, going to do standard 5/8-24 from now on.
Just to complete your understanding here, threads are divided into classes. In the case of muzzle threads, the classes we see in gun work are 3A and 2A(A is for male threads, B for female threads). These two classes overlap, but 3A can be slightly larger than 2A, but has a smaller tolerance window. Everyone likes to see small tolerances, but there isnt a large distinction here in the case of muzzle threads. A 2A thread would fit more stuff(like a slightly smaller than proper spec muzzle device) and will function just fine. See the chart below for the 3A and 2A pitch diameters for a 5/8-24 thread. The thread is verified using thread ring gauges(Go and no-go). If the Go gauge wont thread on, the thread is too large in pitch diameter, if the No-go will thread on, the thread is too small. Don’t go buy gauges, they're stupidly expensive, just verify the shop is going to adhere to one of these classes and move on.

Some shops call out the class they're adhering to up front, such as Patriot valley arms. See the pic of their muzzle thread drop-down below. Other shops can answer the question if you ask.

Muzzle device manufactures should also be adhering to a class(3B or 2B). Shit happens though, and parts get shipped that are out of spec.

Can anybody identify this Thomas Manner rifle stock

Possibly a TF3? That one you posted isn't a TF3A as it doesn't appear to have an adjustable cheek rest, but the overall stock shape looks like it might be a TF3.


If you have the serial number in the barrel channel you could call manners and they can look it up.

M40 front sling swivel question

Nice work, not sure if you saw this thread.
Because my M40 is not a true clone, I elected to incorporate a few modifications of my own design. I was never satisfied with the original swivel arrangement, so I fabricated swivels patterned after those found on the Winchester Model 70 Super Grade, utilizing two points of attachment. These swivels are inletted into the stock, preventing any possibility of twisting, and are dimensioned to accept 1¼" slings. If this project had been intended as a fully authentic clone, my approach may have been different; however, given its nature, I chose to proceed in a manner that suited my preferences.
