    Gunsmithing CG x-treme Mod22 tactical trigger install question

    I just installed a Mod 22 trigger into my Remington 700 action. The issue I am having is when I place the weapon onto safe it stops half way almost as if it is entering a detent. It only does this when it is cocked with the bolt closed. Otherwise the safety operates normally. It does this...

    Gunsmithing PT&G one piece bolt

    I am truing/rebarreling my Remington 700. I was going to upgrade to a pacific tool & gauge one piece bolt while I was at it. There are 2 options as far as the angle on the bolt handle. They sell one with an 11 degree swept back handle. Is that the same angle as the stock Remington bolt? I am...

    Telephone Poll

    I was just polled on the telephone. The first time ever incidentally. The questions started with what is the most important issue facing the country, how do you feel about the general direction country is heading etc. Then the questions on firearms started. Should we ban ammunition which...

    AR 15 Mag Issue

    I just picked up a few 30 round aluminum AR mags. I live in a ban state so these are preban mags. There are no markings so I don't know who manufactured them. I loaded them to 28 rounds, inserted mag, bolt release, removed mag for press check. When I reinsert the mags are very difficult to...

    Gunsmithing Remington 700 SS vs Blued

    I am going to purchase a Remington 700 receiver for a new build. The barreled action will be cerakoted. Is there any real advantage to the stainless steel action over the basic blued action since it is about $200 more? Any recommendations?

    I live in a Assault Weapon Ban state. I saw some 20 round curved aluminum AR mags that were being claimed as being pre ban. There were no dates stamped on the mag bodies. Does anyone know if the curved 20 round mags were made prior to the ban? I don't want to pick them up if they aren't...

    New AR build mag release issues

    I am having issues with a new AR build. It is with the mag release. It is very difficult to seat & release magazines. It only happens when the upper & lower are together. It doesn't matter if the bolt is locked to the rear or forward. I have tried multiple mags & they are all doing the same...
