    Gunsmithing Ruger M77 stock inletting

    I model and program code for new stuff as it comes in. I've always played the long game with this kind of work, so if you send it in, it'll be done at the normal rate we charge. That's the easy part. The other half of this is that the tempo around here has pushed our lead times out quite a...

    Gunsmithing Ruger M77 stock inletting

    Ever since bigger stock companies have "trimmed the fat" for stock inlets, the tempo here has gone bezerk. This is our "bedding ready" inlet for the M77 action from Ruger. It's now a std service. The receiver surfaces are offset by +.05" so that the resin casting isn't paper-thin in some...

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    Adapting the receiver is $125.00 The DBM is $299.00 Fitting it to a stock is $200.00 It does not fit the OEM inlet. This one is a bit more conventional-looking vs the Platypus billed thing the original came with.

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    F/N SPR we recently wrapped up. This one has our new AICS magazine-compatible DBM as well. -(note that the receiver must be machined to make this work)

    Gunsmithing Rem 700 extractor install and ejector modification (.223 bolt face)

    I've not been on here much as the tempo here at work keeps me busy.

    HoOdRaT 3.0..... Blown 421 LSX.

    That's a Jesel external belt drive. Converting the block to this requires machine work to fit the cover along with converting to a dry sump oiling system. Shown is the block in one of my mills as I was fitting the cover.

    "Booger Sugar" comes in various forms. . . "Rice night" has consequences. Lol.

    HoOdRaT 3.0..... Blown 421 LSX.

    Some additional progress over the last few weeks. Headers... A very big thanks to my friend Tom. He was in charge and I was happy to be the "hold this for me" bitch. 2-1/4" primaries to a 4-1/2" collector. Fender dumps. I'm working on the teardrop tips now.

    Something a friend has been working on and he tolerates me to sticking my nose in it here n there... A Ford/GM marriage of sorts. "Ebony aaannnd Ivory. . ." Lol. Windsor block with a pair of GM LT heads that I whittled on to fit. An earlier attempt with conventional LS heads slapped...

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    I would save the effort of doing this with CMM. This was a pass or fail exercise for your buddy, and it's pretty clear where your at. Experience is never cheap.

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    Judging by this photo, my guess is the pin hole was drilled in the wrong location. It looks to me as though the projection of the extractor paw above the bolt nose is dern near equal to the gap between the back of it and the bolt inlet.

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    Yes. I started making my own over a decade ago in an effort to streamline the installation process. Our tempo (75-100 a month) made this pretty clear. We make our own ejector pins too. Most of the M700 bolts we do are converted to use dual ejector pins, so our burn rate on those is 2x...

    Gunsmithing M16 extractor conversion to BAT Machine bolts.

    This week we converted some Bat Machine-made bolts to M16 style. I am so grateful to have the machining resources I do here. This would have been nearly impossible to do otherwise. These began life as a T slot type extractor with a .545" diameter magnum bolt face. We converted them to .480"...

    Gunsmithing Help- broken case stuck in chamber

    Once upon a 3rd world country ago... In Iraq I always had my share of M4s and (mostly) Peshmerga (Kurdish) issue bang sticks to fix. Often, the ammo was dug out of a hole in the ground and it resulted in more than one case "sneezing" and becoming stuck in the chamber. The fix that I found to...
