    Help me build an AWESOME work bench

    I've built two based on these plans. http://www.shotgunsportsmagazine.com/downloads/bench_plans.pdf The first one is still in use after 30 years. I built the second one last year and upsized the plans to nine feet wide and topped it with laminate wood flooring.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Preferred Pistol Sight Picture

    Each have their place. #1: six o' clock hold. Most precise so is often the choice of bullseye shooters but only effective with known distance and consistent target sizes. Gives a white backdrop to the black sights so he front sight is clearer due to contrast. Because of the many...

    Thinking of getting a more accurate barrel for Colt LE6920 M4.

    I doubt that Bushmaster barrel will be any more inherently accurate than your factory Colt barrel. If you're looking for 1/2 moa or better, spending more increases your chances. Think Obermeyer, Noveske, Hart, Shilen, Lilja... Free-float handguard, a stock that allows for a consistent...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Is there an IWB leather holster that wont scratch a stainless 1911?

    Any holster will cause honest wear. Poorly fitting holsters lined with soft leather or suede are worse than kydex because they tend to hold grit. Look for a well boned holster lined inside with top-grain leather. Frequently blow out the inside with compressed air and lightly brush out with an...

    remington 700 aac with aics 1.5 stock

    I have a 700 aac in an aics 1.5 and Jewell trigger. It usually does 1" to 1 1/8" at 100 with 175 FGMM. Every now and again, I get lucky and put 5 in .75". I have higher hopes for this rifle but never got around to handloading for it so I'll make you a smoking deal on it. PM me if you're...

    LC brass sorting

    Case weight doesn't always provide a reliable indication of volume, which is what affects pressure. That is what we're trying to make consistent for consistent velocity. Sorting by casehead is a good place to start. Other than that, if you're shooting past 400 yds AND doing everything else...

    Suppressors ATF Corrections Letter?

    Once, I accidentally transposed numbers in the SN and they sent it back. I used whiteout to make the corrections. I mailed the corrected form back and had it approved and back in hand in two weeks.

    Suppressors Shotgun cans

    I've fired an integral suppressed semi auto shotgun as seen on a popular reality TV show. It made full power buck sound like light target loads but not hearing safe, just took the blast down several levels. Worth it?

    Gunsmithing Coatings, diffs, Duracoat - Ceracote

    Despite it's name, duracoat is not very durable. Cerakote is a pain to mix. I've been using gunkote for over 12 years and have no reason to change.
