    Mk13 Mod0 McMillan A2 stock

    Exactly. Otoh, once I have a serviceable CAD model, I can tweak it however the customer wants.

    Mk13 Mod0 McMillan A2 stock

    The scope rail isn't terribly complicated. I could do a fairly faithful repop after I get my new Robodrill up and running. I'd need to check on the Patent expiration depending on how 'Authentic' you want to be. Either way, it won't be cheap. You're looking at 35 minutes to an hour of machine...

    A Few Armalite AR-10 Build Questions:

    Sorry Sean, I'm not being as much help as I'd like to be. *White, Thank you. Another example of what I had no idea of. That being,,, Brownells has a "exportable" section. Now all I have to do is pray that one day they'll have an Armalite style barrel extension. The only AR-10 one that is listed...

    Gunsmithing 300wm or 300wsm

    The only advantage is that of the shorter powder column will lower the spread of your shot-shot velocity. This is the same concept as the 30-06 vs 308. All factors being equal the 30-06 will have a spread of 50-70 fps where the shorter 308 will spread 30-50 fps. That's with a full benchrest...

    Who Jams and who Jumps?

    I did both... You try loading a 110 Gr. halfjackets into the lands of a chamber cut for 190Gr slugs. LOL In the end you'll get better results with a slight .002 (give or take) jump.

    anyone try the archangel rem stock? or review?

    As stated previously: It fills a niche between the factory rubber bands and the top end mil spec stocks. For people who are still learning what works for them, it allows people to try out a verticle pistolgrip and see how they like it. The one problem I can see is a lack of horizontal...

    Home made Covert Case

    Menards - "Tool Shop" and "Master craft" are the easiest - just ask the highschool kid in the "Ask me any question- I won't care" shirts if they have any scratched or empty cases laying in the backroom.

    Getting into Machining and a Desk Top Lathe

    Running a basic mill and lathe is actually pretty easy. Getting all the tooling and assorted crap will run you as much, if not more than the lathe itself... If you want to work on rifles the first thing you'll want to do is look at Youtube and watch the videos from the home shop machinists...

    Adjustable cheek hardware

    I went with Graco pieces for my cheek and butt. Fairly easy to install with my dremel. Once I get my shop setup i'll be using a mill. The reason I went with the Graco butt is that it screws in on a threaded pipe. It won't walk on long shotstrings. The cheek I just screwed into the upper after...

    Gunsmithing Looking for ACU stencils

    Hobby Lobby carries "Frisket" which is a self adhesive thick film plastic that you can transfer the original pattern onto with a razor so you save the original pattern. Wrap the frisket around the contours of your rifle, paint, peel off and throw away. Save or sell original stencils.

    Gunsmithing stiller tac 30, how true are they??

    90 percent of a rifles "Mechanical" accuracy comes from the chamber and the last 4" of the barrel. Now if you're asking if the stiller is worth the money? Yes. Will it make the rifle more accurate? Not unless you measure your groups with a dial caliper. The stiller simplifies scope mounting and...

    Gunsmithing Mossberg mvp

    The 308 isn't out yet so I'll assume your shooting the 223? The action rests in a plastic insert in the laminated stock. It's a safe bet that the insert needs to be bedded before things tighten up properly.
