What kind of grip extensions?
I am designing a new cartrige. It is a 7mm based on the 284 but to fit in the AR15.
I did an initial prototype but it needs some changes to give a bit more support at the base.

I'm finishing a build and I have 4 different hand guards and I don't like any of them.

Got a few Pierce extensions off eBay for cheap. I love the depth of skill and knowledge of the members here.

Show us some pics when you can.
I just purchased all the lumber I need to build a shooting table. Have not started it yet though.

Got 2 AR lowers en route. I got some reading to dooo
I've basically always got a number of firearms apart and in many pieces for varied projects, most often action/trigger work. Right now the project that I want most at the top of my list is an 'End Grain' knife throwing target , but I can't really get it done because I don't have a currently functioning table saw (Circular/Miter/table/ whatever) to cut all the blocks , and don't have the money to be buying any major power tools. Frustrating.

Started my AR build, got the lower and parts kit all put together. Once I pay down this card from the trip I'll get back to it again

Ordered two 15 rd mags pinned down to 10 rd for my 6946. Didn't fit, had to return them. Then ordered three MecGar 10 rd steel body with plastic skirt to fit the 6946, did not fit, but instead of sending them back (I figure they are all made the same), I am modifying the plastic skirt with scalpel to properly seat on the bottom of grip, so mag will snap in and click the way it's supposed to. Tried the first one, and it worked just fine! Seats properly and ejects just fine. two more to go. A labor of love for my 6946.

If you think 12" x 12" is big enough for a target, I have a piece of 11/16" x 12" x 6' hardwood from an old armoire. Narrow strips glued together. I could cut pieces so that you wold have strips 3" deep (front to back) x 11/16" wide x 12 " high. You would see the end grains of the strips (11/16" x 12"). You could clamp and glue 16 of these pieces together to give you a 3" thick square target 12" x 12" of end grain surface. You pay $60 for cutting and shipping. Wood is free (was going to dumpster it anyway). Will send pics to your email address. An option is to have someone cut a tree trunk into a slab that you could mount somewhere.

A French, approximately 16ga., fowling gun that I nibble at off and on, lots of wire inlay, very tedious. A .62 cal. German Jaeger with all the accessories. A .50 cal. All American long rifle in the Lehigh Valley tradition. An AR10 in the planning stages. Better to be busy than bored!

Im gonna build one of those soon too. I started building some regular Target stands this weekend, and I recently finished a nice rifle build.
My shooting range is Upstate on my folks property in Greene County. That's where I can shoot all the way out to 800 yards safely. But I'm building some Target stands for my house down here so that I can do more training with my airsoft gun. With all the sports my kids are doing I haven't had a free weekend to go upstate as much, but I really do need to keep active on the trigger even if it's only Airsoft. I'm even considering buying an airsoft AR-15 so I can train with that down here and work on muscle memory drills.

Really nice bench. Throw in a couple of diagonal pieces for stability.
Great idea. I don't really have any plans, was going to build as I go along. I will add your suggestion. Never thought of that.

I'm thinking I might do some rattle can camo on my 870 soon. It needs a little color to it
I'm working on getting the new rifle deer rifle going for the up coming season. Besides that I keep working at smelting the range scrap I collected in an effort to start casting.
I always have a few projects going.
1911
ARs (10and15) bolt actions
Remington 700 in 35 Remington
T/C in5.7x28mm
Other than that not much.

I've got my AR project as well that's scattered in multiple parts in multiple boxes on my work bench. Seems like something always comes up before I can work on it. I'd love to build my own 1911 too. Seems like it's out of my skill level at the moment but It's on My bucket list so il get it done eventually.

I hav a SKS that I recently finished FUACizing and getting the trigger nice along with some 922r parts. Not much luck in selling it so I made go deeper into it. Maybe a barrel swap if Walther Lothar has anything for it.
But most of my effort will be going into what I call my orphan revolver. .357 High Standard.
I am thinking of starting a thread on it just to tease Meketrefe with some gun talk.

I have done 7 1911s, I have had this one for about 6 months I just keep forgetting to order the parts required to finish it.
