    Took my roommate to the range:-)

    It's her first time shooting a rifle and she was really nervous! She was flinching really bad and was using too much finger on the trigger....The noise of others shooting randomly kept spooking her until she got used to it and tuned them out...she finally got the hang of it and she went from...

    Use quality lubricants! Many people use oil but I find that oil doesn't stay put and dries out.... I use grease on high wear components such as the slide rails and the locking lugs on my ar15 etc. Don't listen to the people who say over cleaning is bad "improper cleaning" is bad...get quality...

    Glock did a MAJOR recall on all .40sw cal guns that had the old style barrels and didn't even remotly try to hide the fact that there was a problem! Never heard of m16 barrel failure...but I'd imagine at was rather ar15's chambered in 223 and morons tried to shoot 5.56x45 NATO from them which...

    doesnt matter....remington was warned of the trigger group.... yes the death was the woman's fault but remington knew that the trigger group was flawed in some way! remington has had recalls but they have hid them in such a way the the general public wouldnt know about them unless that...

    As much as I'd love to agree that this is media bullshit I can't:-(. Remington 700 series rifles have had unsafe trigger assemblies sense forever! Remington has known about this and chose to ignore it...the designer of the 700 warned Remington not to produce the trigger units but the ignored...

    An ar10 is more expensive! Ammo is more $$, parts are more $$ etc. As far as part fitment goes....if everything is milspec then yes all parts will fit together just fine. If you plan on building the rifle like I did then you must make sure everything is ar10 specific as all internal parts are...

    I may have heard about them in the past but I had to goggle it. I haven't been paying much attention to other firearm mfg's lately.... Seriously considering trading my ar build for a m1 garand....something about them just screams GET OFF MY LAWN!

    Lol dude considering the 223 round is pretty much useless after 600 yards i'd say that's a tad over kill especially on a carbine setup lol! Also....you may want to bring the scope down lower...don't worry about the front sight as you won't see it threw the scope believe it or not.....consider...

    Wolf is generally good plinking ammo...it's very dirty but it's pretty consistant. Whatever you do just don't shoot non jacketed bullets from a factory glock barrel.[COLOR="Silver"]

    Good choice! Glocks are great guns and super easy to maintain:-)

    Nope...there is an obvious difference between the two;-) "clips" simply hold ammo in a uniform way to be inserted into a firearm that does not have a removable magazine... Such as the glorious M1 garand... "magazine" is a fully enclosed, removable ammo feed device which is responsible for the...

    My spikes trigger and hammer are nickel boron plated:-). I didn't mean that I was going to run the gun dry...simply like is self lubricating properties and extremely hard finish! Yeah I got the magpull sights simply cause they cost me $116 for the set....if I planned on actually using them...

    I actually plan on using a bravo company bolt as it's "m16" and it's the company that supplies the most the military:-) it's a 16" barrel and I'll be using a 13" handguard with quad rail....I have magpul mbus front and rear....you won't be able to see the gas block when finished. Parts: bravo...
