    Gunsmithing Howa Mini not feeding

    Pretty much what Chad said, the bolt will push the round forward until it starts up the feed ramp, and then the case head drops down under the bolt.

    Corona Virus has been here...

    I got the small pox vaccine, but it is really only good for about 20 years. I'd certainly go get another if it was available to me.

    Corona Virus has been here...

    I was just asking because I knew(all of them dead now) some old folks who had caught Polio, it seriously fucked them up for the rest of their lives. Everyone of them wished they had gotten vaccinated, of course hind sight being 20/20. However, for everyone of them the vaccine either did not...

    Corona Virus has been here...

    Soooo, if there was an outbreak of say small pox, or something else that would really fuck you up, or kill you if you got it, you wouldn't get vaccinated? Not criticizing you for your choices, just asking.

    My wife just left me over the coronavirus.

    How much food and water were you wanting to buy? Damn. I haven't bought any more than I usually do, and we're fine.

    Spend my money

    If you're going to build, I'd recommend a Spike's CL barrel in whatever length/profile you prefer, and as already mentioned a ToolCraft bcg as the heart of it. I wouldn't worry too much about billet uppers, and lowers unless you just want one.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 10mm help subsonic

    myronman3, is right it's possible to load 180gr. and up, to subsonic velocities, but finding something that'll work for self-defense in the 10 is going to be non-existent (in a factory load). Plus, you may run into cycling issues as well, don't know for sure as I've never loaded any sub-sonics...

    Gunsmithing Howa Mini not feeding

    Just installed the DIP bottom metal, it helped a tad, but not enough. I'll probably give LRI a call some time, there are couple other things I may have them work on while they have it anyway.

    A little perspective is always a good thing

    India has a huge problem with rabies, not how I'd want to go.

    Suppressors How do you store/transport your cans?

    Guys, I have a lot of adapters (direct thread, 3-lug, fixed barrel spacers, etc), pistons, take down tools, sometimes I run them in a K config, and I need something to keep it all in one place. If you throw yours in the truck floor and let the shit roll around all over the place, get stepped...

    Suppressors How do you store/transport your cans?

    Thanks! Yeah, I'm looking at more of a stand alone option that I can put them all in.

    Suppressors How do you store/transport your cans?

    I was thinking about maybe getting some type of case that I can put them in, along with my adapters and stuff. Looking for ideas/solutins that I haven't thought of yet. You guys on the 'Hide are good thinkers, well most of you anyway. ;)

    S%#ts getting weird in Illinois

    It's Illinois, been weird there for a while now. I think it's a whole lot of politicians posturing for election time. They can point, and say look at all the stuff we did to save you!

    Suppressors Swaged .357 Bullets in 9mm w/Suppressor --Anyone Doing It?

    I don't shoot too many lead bullets. My Dad casts, swages, gas checks, pistol/rifle all that stuff, I'll be honest..........it looks like a huge PIA. He did get some (I think) polymer coated bullets from Missouri Bullet Co. this week that looks interesting.

    Greeting from Bangkok, Thailand

    Cool, not sure when we will go back, especially in light of our current situation with the COVI19. She still has family there, so I'm sure it'll happen, just don't know when.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New kkm barrel guide rod issues

    Keep on hatin', they are everywhere! There is some differences in the guide rods between Gen3-4, but I don't know if there is a difference in the barrels, where the guide rod seats.
