    Help me decide on an AR build direction

    They functioned very well in my 14.5" carbides and M4. They have dual extractor Springs. I think they were designed for the 14.5 and for over gassed carbines. They do clean up nice.

    Pull is at 4poubds I could digitally check mine. They advertise 4 pounds. No I didn't find the enhanced bolt doing any better than all the other bolts I have used. It's didn't do worse They all functioned well for me. Ymmv

    If you get a chance try a Super Dynamic 3 Gun (SD-3G) Trigger Great single stage. Very quick. Very fast reset but quite a bit more money than the $90

    Help me decide on an AR build direction

    I have a LMT enhanced bolt...not overly impressed. I ran a M16A2 with a M4 LMT upper custom made for me by LMT. It ran just fine with both standard and enhanced. My LWRC's are piston's. My PWS Mk 114 has been flawless but not the most accurate.

    Help me decide on an AR build direction

    LaRue accuracy is known world-wide. The accuracy of each LaRue Upper is proven at our 100-yard tunnel using match-grade ammunition. No LaRue Upper can leave the facility unless it obtains accuracy of less-than 1 MOA (1.047”) at 100 Yards. Each ships with a copy of a 3-round group obtained from...

    Help me decide on an AR build direction

    Why not a LaRue Stealth 14.5" upper with pinned muzzle device. It will serve both purposes. Super accurate, door kicker that will be as accurate or more than a spr. Otherwise the LaRue 18" stealth upper for spr. I have both the Noveske 14.5" Afghan and the 14.5" LaRue and they shoot as well or...

    AR-15 fixed mag? FC Hook? Anyone know? AR-pistol?

    My other FFL has no issue selling me a lower with the FC hook installed as a pistol. Just want to make sure it is legal that way. And if not what is everyone else using to fix their mag?

    AR-15 fixed mag? FC Hook? Anyone know? AR-pistol?

    The way around the 50 oz rule for a pistol is a fixed mag.

    AR-15 fixed mag? FC Hook? Anyone know? AR-pistol?

    So I want to do a fixed mag lower. How do you put a fixed mag lower on your permit? I know they FFL has to transfer it as a pistol. How do you get a fixed mag lower that is compliant? I was looking at the FC Hook. The FC hook looked great I just got back from a LGS that said the ATF and state...

    Why .45 ACP “Sucks” for Self Defense

    Corbon DPX 185+P penetrated 13-141/2" very consistently The golden saber 185+P penetrated 16-171/2" The down side to the golden saber is it is a much hotter round in the small .45 Shield compared to the DPX and recoil was much stouter

    Why .45 ACP “Sucks” for Self Defense

    Ballistic gel testing is not the tell all BUT I have done 9mm, .40, .357SIG and .45 The .357SIG clearly had more kinetic energy. Basically it rocked the block! I carry Corbon DPX as they penetrated to 17"-171/2"every time and fully expanded. Underwoods 125gr gold dot loading penetrated to 19...

    Why .45 ACP “Sucks” for Self Defense

    I agree 100%. .357sig is a much better choice. Also 9mm federal HST 124 standard pressure has penetrated to 18" and expanded to .620-.636 25 out of 25 times through all sorts of media. .45 out of a 5" barrel performs better but limited magazine capacity. I carried a Glock 32 for years prior to...

    Modular Sig Sauer and pistol permit

    In Rensselaer county you have to register each caliber that the specific gun can shoot. My G26 is registered in 9mm and .357 sig as I have a conversion to shoot .357 sig out of it So one gun with different calibers. Your county might be different

    Removing restrictions

    I will say we were getting a couple of pistols added to her permit that we coregister. We did that over the Holiday and it took 5 weeks or so when it normally takes a few days

    Removing restrictions

    I am in Rensselaer as well. MY wife took the course to get her restrictions remove about 2-3 months after she got her permit. I think it took about 3 weeks. You will get a letter sent to your mailing address with it either granted or denied.

    Questions from someone new to carrying

    There are some excellent points made about gun belts, training, holsters etc. Now to discuss the Shield with you. I also have the PC shield. It is an excellent carry pistol with a couple of potential issues. The original mag springs especially in their 8 rounders are junk and have been major...

    Xtreme Penetrator VS. Xtreme Defense Ammo

    Sort of. What they do is the flutes prevent them from over penetrating. Kind of like hydraulic brakes. The wound channels were only impressive on the .380. However I don't think it can be quantified in ballistic gel.

    Xtreme Penetrator VS. Xtreme Defense Ammo

    Actually not true at all. FMJ blows through the blocks in every caliber. Goes right past 22" and into my 4X6 block of wood. You get extreme over penetration with FMJ!

    Buying Ammo Online and Having It Shipped to Your House

    I carry Federal HST 124gr in all my 9mm's. I would also not hesitate to carry Corbon DPX 115+P as well In .40 I carry Federal HST 165gr In .357 Sig I carry Corbon DPX 125 gr In my Shield .45 I will most likely settle on Corbon DPX 185+P or Golden Saber 185+P Glock 43 9mm Weather 42*, Humidity...

    Vortex Golden Eagle

    It is an EXCELLENT benchrest scope. I was talking with Bob Barnhart about his and he loves it. He has shot many scores of 2500. I bought his last rifle that he scored a 2500 with. I am also looking at that scope. I have 45x Leupold now I have 5-.22cal rounds in to this with his rifle and 45X at...

    Modding my ruger 10/22

    It's not a picatinny rail, which does allow much more variety of scopes (rings) and red dots. Of course factory rails are perfectly fine for a non modded 10/22. Mine are highly customized. Very highly

    Modding my ruger 10/22

    I am very close to you. I have built quite a few 10/22's. For ease and consistency get a Kidd barrel of your liking, Kidd bolt, Kidd 2 stage trigger group, Kidd guide rod assembly with charging handle. The long magazine under the trigger release is great too. You will have a 50 yard .375 MOA...
