    No Hillary Hole. Might just have to think about this revolver....

    Which of these 3 S&W .44's to keep? (updated pics)

    Edit - I'd keep 'em all. Beautiful.

    Not a good day for the 15-22

    You can bend the legs of the springs to fine-tune the force. I had some light primer strikes so I bent the spring legs to push the hammer harder and fixed the problem. Many, many rounds and it's still reliable and I know it's as light of a pull as I can have.

    Removing XTM rail panels

    don't dig or pry very much. Work on the same plane as the XTM panel-and it's counter-clockwise.

    How many 500 Mag shooters still out there

    Can't wait to start reloading this lil bastid so I can enjoy it more often. It goes on many a hike

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    52 is old to a 25 year old. I think if we didn't have a little extra cash for toys they'd float us off on an iceberg or something :D The A2 flash hider will not admit a barrel nut tool so the take-down procedure is: 1] stash lower receiver 2] grind away weld 3] invert to allow pin to...

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    Yes I'm old. 52 years but far from disabled still. My .308 AR is 12 lbs. I hike with a 4" .500 Mag that I'm thinking weighs near this rifle. My motivation was a unique piece.

    A Highpoint? Trolling?

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    The barrel arrived at the ADCO shop Friday, after our splendid Alaska 6-day priority mail. Can't wait. The MBUS sights arrived today though. 2.7 oz for the set not bad. 1st generation. The stock 15/22 sights are not bad either at 7.3 oz Lots of effort and expense for a few ounces? Yeah...

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    What a coincidence...I had an extra rear and so I just ordered a front MBUS. I liked the carry handle for hiking but a sling will do. Besides doing weird stuff like aluminum take-down pins, I might be done. Pictures and weight in two weeks.

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    Not everything people do is logical :D This is the gun I shoot oftenest, so I thought I'd buy it a present. I was wanting a flash hider so the bbl is coming off anyway. It costs zero extra when threading to shorten the bbl, so rather than make the unit 1.3 inches longer than it is, I...

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    I can go 14.7 with a pinned and welded flash hider to make 16"

    Barrel to ADCO--it's done, pix and range report

    For threading, shortening to 14.7" and reprofiling to .485. Trying for a lightweight AR.... Edit: Barrel came in the mail today, 14 days with Alaska Priority Mail. I pinned on the flash hider making a 16.3" bbl, picked up my stashed lower receiver (I didn't want to go to the PMITA...
