Fishlight anyone?

My brother was complaining about not having a decent scope for his 22 rifle. I bought him a nice Bushnell and told him to bring his rifle to the house. I installed it and got everything zeroed. The following weekend we were going to go hunt and he showed up missing the scope. I asked were it was and he said he sold it a few days after I gave it to him.
That was the last time I gave him anything, including money. In the end he tried to kill my family and I when we cut him off financially. He couldn't afford his drugs anymore so he grabbed an AK, assualted our mother then came to kill us. Luckily the cops scared him into the woods. He had a standoff with the cops and spent a week in a mental institution before being released to continue making threats. He tried to kill our mother about 4 months ago and he was time served after a few weeks.

Some people use E clips on guns hammer or trigger pins.

Not really sure.
Should have been no surprize on the other site if you hang around here much. I posted it here the day before the other site.

Works well enough. I got this one off of Ebay last year for $18 shipped. The seller realized he was under valued and doubled or tripled the prices. For this gun it makes a difference.

Here are some pictures of my recent 300 Blackout build using a Savage Striker. It is a pistol based on a Savage short action that was built for a few years. They are actually really hard to find and after 3 weeks of calling and emailing every person who listed one for sale in the last 18 months I found one.
It is a left hand bolt with a right hand eject. The trigger is actually pretty nice for having a linkage. Hoping to get a chance to get it zeroed and have fun with it this weekend.
The barrel started life as a 416SS Green Mountain blank with 8 twist. It was cut to 16.5" and threaded for a muzzle brake installed for now. As soon as I get my forms back from the ATF for what will be my form 1 can I will be chopping the barrel to 10"-12" and threading it. I also have a 223 barrel and looking for a 308 barrel. Swapping barrels literally takes 15 minutes.

Not titanium, solid carbide.find a shop with a drill press and titanium bits.. ur not gunna drill.out a snapped drill.bit with another standard drill bit. or you can have a welder weld the bullet guide on... good penetration.is key. your last option.. imo would be to drill 2 new holes im the bullet guide and recess them and then drill the trunion with the new hole area
True. Titanium tipped and coated ones i got at lowes worked fine for a snapped drill bit. Carbide would make fast clean work of the snapped bit
Carbide is what is used to cut the taps from blanks. It's not cheap, and if you find a way to chip the edge of the drill bit you'll have hell finding something hard enough to sharpen it... but it will cut through hardened steel like a knife through butter.
Green wheel for a bench grinder. They are pretty cheap and easy to find. I sharpen carbide bits for my lathe all the time.

OP,
In the world, every part of it, there is courtesy and etiquette that must be followed when dealing with others. In the world of buying and selling online the courteous thing is to keep it private until the matter is resolved or until it is obvious it will not be. You did not do this so you are going to have a hard time finding anyone on your side. You blasted the seller immediately on a public forum trying to get some sort of satisfaction rather than trying to find a resolution privately. As you look at that sight let us know how satisfying it was to blast a random, anonymous guy on the internet. You chose satisfaction over a resolution and are now upset that the satisfaction isn't very satisfying. At this point you should probably embrace your decision and drop any hope of a resolution.
I don't care how badly misrepresented the sight was by the seller. Once you publically blast him without making an effort to allow him to make it right you are in the wrong and not him. Doing this puts up a wall to communication and at that point it is not his fault he won't deal with you, it is yours. Had you blasted me publically, even if the problem was 100% my fault, without contacting me in private first I would not try to work with you either. In the end you would not be getting anything from me had you done this to me, not a refund or even an explanation. I suspect Tim will follow the same course of action.
You should probably talk to the doc about your issues. You obviously do not feel good about yourself if you cannot even act like a normal person. And you have some serious rage issues that you need to have addressed either through counselling or medications. I am serious about this. There are a lot of veterans that have issues that need help and it sounds like you might be one.

It doesn't even need to be tig welded, any mig will work. Set the bullet guide where you want it. Center the mig up on the hole then give it a 2-3 second burst. You will not blow a hole in anything and the worst case scenario is you might have to grind a little nipple down. This is the method I use to attach muzzle brakes to the barrel permanently.
ANY welding shop can do it and probably most home hobby guys with a mig. I would walk into, and not just call, a local welding shop and ask a manager if any of his guys could do it. From my experience most welders are also gun guys and would get a kick out of doing it.
Do not fool with trying a arc. Although it is possible I find arc tends to be more for larger pieces and less for precise work.

Like I said in the other thread you are going to be surprized at how well it does.
I would not worry about making a metal threaded insert. I would screw the delrin directly onto the barrel. I use hand taps to thread mine and when using delrin it makes for a very nice, tight fit.

Actually it was not as scathing as I expected. Definitely not as bad as MSNBC would have reported.

You are going to be pleasantly surprized at how well delrin holds up. I have messed with it quite a bit and it always surprizes me how well it works.

I wonder if you could use a 7.62x39 barrel, and adjust the head spacing. Or re-profile the chamber.
No, will not work at all.

I have spent a lot of money with him in recent months. It was several seperate orders over the course of a month or so and every order was the same. He ships super fast and is a great guy to deal with. His prices are great as are his own, in house, products. He has excellent communication if you have a question and I will spend my money with him before going anywhere else.
And if you have a problem he goes way beyond any other retailer I have ever dealt with. I will always come back to CSS because of that.
A cannot imagine a better business or individual to buy from. He is truly an asset to the firearms community.
Thanks for everything Greg, I really appreciate it.

Recently they have been scarce here but still available. I went into Walmart the other day and bought 800 rounds and left 4K-5K for someone else. I went back the next day to get more and they were gone.
My Walmart has been caught holding ammo for dealers before so I suspect it is happening again.

So my wife and I decided to do a little metal detecting. We were in an area that probably hasn't had a lot of people shooting in it for a very long time. During out adventures I got a blip about something small about 6" down. As she dug she found an unfired 22 that was at least 4" in the soil. It was pretty well packed soil so the round had been buried for quite some time. It was on the side of a hill that I frequented as a kid, some 35 years ago. Not saying the round was 35 years old but it was under 4+ inches of soil so it wasn't placed there yesterday.
Here is the picture as found:
I was able to determine it was a Federal. I have no clue why the tip was like that though. The lead did have white corrosion.
So the next thing that pops into my head is I wonder if it will fire? I grab my Taurus PT22 because I could care less if the bore gets scratched. I chamber it, which was hard becuse of the dirt and corrosion, and I pull the trigger.
BANG!!!
Although it didn't extract it did in fact go off which I do find this pretty amazing.

I used to work in LE and when I converted my Saiga I showed some of them. Every single one liked it and liked it a lot.

That's the first thing I thought, sorry, Syndicate.
The internet's a scary place sometimes, and I don't mean little bitches like this guy.
You start going into places off the beaten path, dealing with some of the more illegal
activities, then you can run into people who can back up their bark, figure out your name
and address from your ip, mail you something nasty, crash your bank's websites, ruin your
credit rating, and that's just a start. I've heard of kiddie porn snuck on to people's PCs
and the cops tipped off, all over arguments on forums.
However, that's way down there. Above that, you got the no holds barred trolls, who will go
after you with anything you give them. Race, religion, gender, age, weight, occupation,
and especially sexual preference, even if you aren't gay. Nasty pictures that make Gaddis
look like a priest, and they usually have friends to help them out, most of whom are the moderators.
Then you've got the worst of the normal trolls, which happen at arf.com and the rest. Or, you got thehighroad,
which is like the Southern Baptists of Gun Boards, where the mods do the trolling.
This place is not bad at all, in retrospect.
Hahaha mods doing the trolling at the high road is spot on. I used to like that forum because you didn't have to deal with trolls like SS but after a few months realized some mods (not all of them) are on a complete power trip.
This forum has a good balance IMO. It's not wild like ARF or the campfire but not overly modded like THR.
I just wish we had a self taught sorda 1911 smith here to help me...
PM me the issue(s), I have been known to dabble in a few 1911's over the years.

The McUzi rant is a classic that is still referenced and it has been at least 8 years and probably over 10.

Not sure if you can find it but I have found paint used to make chaulkboards works better than most other spray on paints. It is used to spray on a board or wall to create a chaulkboard. There is something in it to make it durable against chaulk so it is also durable against other stuff.
What is the most expensive single thing you ever bought in whole.

Having my attached garage built. It was $25K cash. Second was $6K for central heat and air to be installed. After that was $5K for a bedroom suite. All of those were for my wife's benefit. I also spend a lot each month on my wife's hobby. She rides horses so she needed a new trailer, a new truck to pull that trailer as well as a place to board her horse. All of that costs well over $1K a month.
For me the most I have ever spent on myself at one time was $1k for a used car. As far as guns it was $619 for my Saiga. All my gun related stuff is bought a piece at a time or built a piece at a time.
In the next 6 months I am spending ~$5k on a brand new Grizzly lathe and tooling.
I enjoy giving my wife what she wants. She has giving more for my benefit than I could ever replace. I was in a helicopter accident in 2008. Since then she takes care of me and helps me with things I used to take for granted. Without her I am not sure where I would be right now but definitely a lot worse.
