Acetone should not have any real effect on glass filled nylon of the Glock frame, I was thinking the sights are made of the same, but can't be sure. (The stock sights are always the first thing to...

Zn MP= 782 f
Sn MP= 449.5 f
Al MP= 1221 f

my guess is an alloy of tin zinc and aluminum with maybe some small % copper.
the tin could lower the overall melting point, in the same way that the...

Gonna bobtail my 9mm champion lightweight.
I've only got one to do, and hate to buy a jig for a one off.
Does anyone have one they'd be willing to lend out?

Even if not: anyone have some good...

Thanks, a new barrel is definitely going to happen.
A chamber reamer rental and barrel blank are still cheaper than the reboring service.
I'm sure he does great work, but I don't have a donor...

Thanks for your input Texas and Idaho, respectively.
I was thinking of a pun involving states... But, I got nothin'
I lost an auction today, that had every part I needed for the Mauser build on...

That's a new one on me, but I'm gonna take you as a credible source on the matter.

Nope, Redding dies. Have there been issues with the Lee dies in that caliber?

That's correct, there will have to be some minor changes to properly feed, but this action was salvaged from a trainwreck of an Israeli 7.62 capture/conversion, all I'm worried about now is the nose...

Any recommendations for powder selection?
any experience forming from 308 win?
New brass seems difficult to come by, if an exceptionally difficult process, I may just buy from GRUMPA. Seems like...

Thanks!

I'm thinking of setting it up in a "semi-scout" configuration.
keeping the original stripper clip guide for use, aperture rear and "winged" front sight post

I'm considering rebuilding a Mauser action into .358 Winchester.
its velocities seem in the ideal range for cast, with the mass to make a helluva hunting rifle.

Geez me too.
I know it's probably dumb. But I really hope they make a reliable high capacity 10mm magazine in the 25-30 round range also. That's all that is holding me back from building a DI 10mm...

So long as the different magazine is an alternating feed design that magpul can immediately make a better stronger and cheaper version of in 10mm I'd still throw my money at it faster than a...

The problem I have is width and length. The barrel is too short and frame is too thick.
id love to see one about as thick as their 380 offering with a Glock 19 length slide.
I purchased the bersa...

A fast twist rate can be a problem, but outta my 9" 1:7 barrel I use the 155 lee gc'd and moving along at a fairly leisurely 1850 when worked up. accuracy started at about 2 moa and got down to about...

The issue with steel case came with the thick lacquer that wolf used to use, the chamber would accumulate and stick brass cases and some times steel ripping rims off the brass in my experience....

For super use the 7.62x40 wt wins out,
blackout wins the day for sub(much better penetration than a 45 and better external ballistics.) and general parts availability. and is geared in powder...

And I have plans to make one, I've got a couple of extra gas blocks, this in combo with an adjustable weight buffer should allow me to dial it in juuuuuuust right.

If you would mic all outside dimensions and the depth and width of the hole on the slash buffer, that would be great.
you are using the standard length ar 15 tube and spring?
an accurate napkin...

I will second the opinion on Bravo company Rifles (BCM),
You can spend significantly less and have an as good/better rifle.
This is a MUCH lighter, Higher quality upper group from BCM:...

While working as a gunsmith and general gunshop go-to guy, Ive sent several back.
the only repeat offenders were Taurus, mossberg rifles, and Chiappa.
In Taurus' defense they have excellent...

Actually if someone has one and is willing to mic it out for me and send me a couple of pictures that would work just fine too.

I am in need of a dpms style 308 carbine buffer. I need to take some measurements, knock the roll pin out and weigh the assembly.
Will reassmble it and pay shipping both ways.
If it gets dinged...
