  1. some people recommend against this. if you use to much oil, it can plug the gas port when it heats up and holds fouling. i oil mine then wipe as much excess off as possilbe. i only leave a very minor amount. I do earnestly thank you for the tip. But I don't put much stock in "this and this could happen if you do this under these conditions" that one finds on the Internet. People will find hypothetical problems with others' methods and equipment simply because it's not theirs and they want to feel superior. I do swab the port area with a cue-tip to take out excess debris and oil, but I'll
  2. Well when I dig it out of the ground, I take the dust cover off, piss in the action, rack it a few times and go about my business. Lol but really, I take an oiled toothbrush over the chamber, ramp, FCG, all lower internals. Remove and clean gas tube with oiled toothbrush to get most of the residue but it's not gonna sparkle. Oil the piston then wipe clean with a rag, gets about 99% clean. Oiled toothbrush to bolt and bolt carrier and '74 brake, then run oiled patches through the barrel till they come out mostly clean if I'm in a hurry, otherwise I'll clean it spotless which happens most of t
  3. I wanted him to know there's at least some people that'll "have none of it." I won't give any rights for security. Well he said it doesn't give the military the power to arrest US citizens, however I do realize that he wouldn't be the first politician to lie to benefit himself. I think the truth is that we'll have to wait and see.
  4. I hear ya, that's a pretty cool concept. If the price comes down at some point I'm all over it.
  5. This is not meant to be confrontational, but how many times have you seen a dust cover blown off of an AK-pattern rifle during firing? It is one of those things that does happen(regardless of how rarely) and not takeing steps to limit potential damage could land you in the hospital or court if you're selling the kit. If you watch the Youtube vids in slow motion/stop frame, you'll notice that most of the time it's the dustcover being pushed back and the front raiseing up away from the barrel. A simple tab about an ich or so back and over the top of the shroud is usually enough. Wors
  6. The family is always going to say it was uncalled for, but cry me a river, the younger kid was justified. Good for him. And good for the judge upholding his right to defend himself, this goes quite a ways for cases of self-defense.
  7. That's complete bullshit! They can initiate a firefight. Edit: It's called an ambush. Exactly, rules of engagement only make it more difficult for our troops to do their job, let alone protect their own lives.
  8. As for shooting this standing up and recoil, the one of these I saw weighed over 80lbs. That might help a bit with the recoil, lol.
  9. Lol, sorry no tomatoes today. I think something like this is an opinion, and as with everything I say "to each his own." I think it's hard to say what I'd do after being in their shoes, if someone tried to kill me, being innocent, I might be mad too. Either way I'm not judging them.

  11. I wondered the same thing at first, but with my shells ejecting about twenty feet from a standing position it's running just fine.
  12. I haven't had any problems with mine. You get parts count, lightweight, and I think you'll find them to feel surprisingly solid.
  13. Our military can't initiate a firefight, if these men were killed it was because they fired at those soldiers first. Killed and pissed on? They got what they deserved, political correctness be damned.
  14. ok while they are staying if it holds a magnet placed on the tip, you can not shoot it. Most recently imported 7.62x39 ammo since the mid 1990s usually has a steel thin jacket material NOT THE CORE.. The US Federal government does not allow steel core 7.62x39 ammo to be imported and so no distributors would have any. Unless you happen to have bought some old 1990s ammo, there is zero chance your ammo has a steel core. A magnet will stick to the steel jacket which is why many range employees are often not the brightest people. I can't begin to discuss how many range employees tried t
  15. Love the Barrelhead, my parents have been friends with the Davlins for a while so that was a regular place for us. It's a shame about the tornados a few years back but the place looks better than ever now. Have you been recently?
  16. Bravo to this guy for having the stones to jump in the river and help save those kids.
  17. My prayers are with this lady, along with a pat on the back. Guns save (innocent) lives. Edited for spelling.
  18. I used to be very left-leaning when I was in college (only a few years ago). I think it has a lot to due with the fact that a lot of college students haven't yet had to really earn anything in life. Either mommy and daddy paid for it, or they have a loan that they don't have to worry about yet (at least that's what they think). Since they aren't paying taxes anyways what do they care what the tax rate is? On that same token, find the college students working 40 hours a week to pay for their schooling and see if they're on the left. You are correct sir. I'm 21, working full time and
  19. Mine is the same way, the front post is about 2/3 of the way to the left to bring POI to POA. As long as I can hit what I want to though, I don't worry about it. Gun Control- The theory that criminals (by definition, people who break laws) will follow a LAW that says they can't have a gun.
  20. That's what the 5 of us did, 12g birdshot over a cornfield. Never thought I'd be that guy lol. Gun Control- The theory that criminals (by definition, people who break laws) will follow a LAW that says they can't have a gun.
  21. Hey dude good for you, they make many options so that you can choose which one you want. If it fits your needs, not to be cliché but rock on!
  22. That says it beautifully. Thank you to all our under-appreciated heros, and have a merry Christmas.
  23. Lol it's very true, I hadn't seen the video and read your post and said "seriously?"
  24. Don't forget, 'tis also the season for buying firearms. Black Friday there were over 129,000 background checks requested, thats the record for one day. I have bought two since then, anybody breaks in my apartment they'll meet the glock.
