    My new RPR

    ALL of these caliber swaps are in the barrel only. Everything else remains the same so very easy to hit a market till it dries up and then change the production line to a new caliber for awhile. I just bought a 223, installed a Timney straight trigger set at 1lb from the factory. I have a 6.5...

    22/45 frustration

    Glad it worked out for you Mo, and yes I got the mailed item. Appreciated for sure. My 22/45 has the Majestic system installed and it's as easy as the Mk4 for takedown now. Trigger is crisp at about 10 ozs or so, but I don't care about the 'lightness' as long as it is a crisp let go. I have...

    Ruger Mark III 22/45 with Extras.

    What Red Dot Scope for my Ruger AR556?

    Lots of choices. I'm running a Vortex SPARC with the 3x magnifier by them as well. IF you are a vet or LEO then go to their page and look across the top for the discount program.

    Ruger rings won't close over scope

    RPR Folding stock - NOT

    Is it empty? Probably can't fold closed if there is a round in the chamber and the bolt hasn't closed.

    New Mini 14 Stuck Closed

    Re-boot might simply mean placing the butt down, barrel up and use your boot to kick the slide handle down. I had to do that with a full grown M14 once or twice.

    Power Pistol for .45 ACP ?

    Power Pistol is good powder. BUT Unique measured easier in the powder dispenser. I used 6.9gn of Power Pistol for about 825fps. Unique was a 5.8 or so for 800fps. Speeds determined by Labradar.
