  1. Lets see if we can concentrate one one rifle at a time , the rifle just to the left of the row of Magazines , top row , second from the from the AK , which is the one one the left, top row . I don't think its a Saga MK 107 , I'm not don't know that rifle , but looking at a couple of photo's of the MK 107 , it doesn't look like one . AS said the one on the left , top row , as we are looking at the photo is a AK 47 type , for sure . the one to the right of it is a Piston gun , thats for sure , but nothing like any of the photo's I've seen of the MK 107. Those mags may not even go to one of the rifles we are seeing in this photo . The rifle , second from the bottom looks like a LWRC enhanced .
  2. Are you sure yo don't have your right & left mixed up ? I see the top right rifle has a side charger handle , still what caliber ? And how about the Mags at the top , what are they ? Do you have a link ,Mike
  3. You can have all the gun control you want & it won't stop this & my bet it was an AR that was ripped off , from an unmarked LE car. http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/local/gun-ammo-and-equipment-stolen-from-jso-officers-unmarked-car/255314540
  4. The Barrel Extension should not have come off that easy , glad they took care of you . You should still use Barrel Vice Blocks to remove or install any Muzzle Device , I use leather between the Blocks & the Barrel to keep from marring the Barrel or its finish , My Blocks are made of Aluminum .
  5. If you look at the third Mag. down from the top , its a AR 15 Magpul , the ones above it have to be 308 ,is my guess & that would make the Rifle we can't get a good view of a 308AR. These two were ready to stand off LE , but SWAT & their fire power made them just kill themselves is what they are saying . They found this guys Father beat to death at his home & he was trying to get an injunction against him . They didn't try to escape too far , Daytona Beach is only an hour away from here . I'm glad for LE , these two didn't shoot it out , there would be a good chance these two might have got lucky .
  6. I have no problem with what you ride , really never had , just messing with ya, its a Harley thing The thing is most kids buy those type bikes to show how fast they can be or making donuts , had too many I know picked off the road or out of a Cages grille & some were on HD's , but every day you can read about someone locally that lost it on on of those 200 MPH machines & all were young . Hd's, at least street HD's , were never meant to be fast & yes some are not reliable ,but that would be the twenty year +old ones ,that are needing a complete rebuild , not so with the new ones , I have 72K on my Ultra & had the Stator go bad , but made it home , that's it . Every component has a service life . Many Ultra's out there with over 100K on them . I had a F350 Dually,Crew Cab , Turbo Charged 7.3 liter Diesel with a five speed manual & it was a beast , it would pull boats out in first gear @ idle .
  7. When I was younger , my brother used to call me Duckass , because of the back of my hair he said looked like a Ducks A$$ , so Duck would work . Ya them farm tractor motor's just are not speed demons , but since I have a 51 year old one & just sold one that was over 60 & still on the road , match that with any of those Duc eater's & that would impress me . Some old same old with you young'en's speed, speed ,speed , until it bits you on the A$$ .
  8. This is from a couple that committed suicide after LE found them in Daytona Beach , were wanted for murdering his father yesterday. The Daytona SWAT was in another part of the Motel they were at when another LEO ran the plate of their car & saw he was wanted . Since SWAT was there already , the two ( Man & wife ) decided they wouldn't win that one I guess , but what got my attention was the top Mags in the Photo , they look like Magpul LR 308's . The rifle below them , I can't tell if its a 308 or not , the others I can say are not . They can't be AK type like the one rifle , can they ?
  9. Its a shooter too , I was shooting my hand cast 200gr SWC's & was drilling the center of the target with ease . 4.9 gr. of Bullseye . I'm i the process of loading a bunch of my 228 gr. RN to try the next time out . Same charge wt. , should be interesting . That Barrel might be Stainless, not chromed , hard to tell & its been so long I don't remember .
  10. All that rice grinding is making me hungry , I like Chicken with my rice
  11. Not the whole rifle , just the BCG , but as has been said before ,their may be export restrictions , I 'm sure a person can find components over there if one was to look hard enough . Several Countries actually used the AR 10 at some point .
  12. Why not purchase one & you have all the measurements you want .
  13. I read that this morning & just shook my head , what will these bone heads think of next . Now Glocks will fly off the shelves , not that I care .
  14. Some times you have to have fun at work , no matter what the job.
  15. That is some funny stuff , I had to pass it on .
  16. This is interesting for those who have had questions . Long Range Rifles, LLC Cleaning Instructions Cleaning Equipment: Dewey one-piece cleaning rods, jags and brushes are recognized throughout the industry as the very best. I recommend and use them. A properly fitted bore guide is a must and there are many good ones available. Bore Tech Eliminator is a non-ammonia copper solvent that we also use for its fast effective copper removal. Under certain conditions ammonia based cleaners can harm a rifle's bore. So we do not recommend their use. J-B Bore Cleaning Compound is the only abrasive paste we recommend, and it is for the specific occasional use of removing a carbon build-up in your barrel. Like any abrasive, over-use will damage your barrel. So read more about its use in the general cleaning section below. Barrel Break-in: We know that a custom barrel like the Brux Barrels we use at Long Range Rifles break-in faster than factory/production barrels. So what exactly is a broken-in barrel? A barrel is broken-in at the point where it has obtained its maximum accuracy, minimum copper fouling and stabilized velocity readings. The process of break-in is initiated by shooting just 3-5 rounds and then cleaning your rifle's barrel to remove the copper fouling. Normally repeating this step 2-3 more times will complete the process of reducing copper fouling. During this process, you will notice the barrel is cleaning much easier at every step. With 3-4 cleanings after 3-5 rounds each in the first 25 rounds, go ahead and use the rifle normally, as this part of break-in is complete. Do not use any abrasive paste type cleaners during break-in as doing this can damage your rifle’s bore. Regarding the aspect of stabilizing velocities, the use of chronographs and experience will show that the barrels tend to speed up over the first 50 to 100 or so rounds, with the exact same load being used during that time period. What does this mean to the average marksman? First understand that your rifle’s long range trajectories will change slightly at some point during the first 50-100 rounds. Second, if you’re doing load development early on in the barrel’s life, (less than 50 rounds) don’t max out your pressure or velocity. You may be well over pressure when you hit the 100+ rounds fired mark, caused by a possible velocity increase of up to 75 fps. At the 75 to 100 round mark, your barrel will now be ready for its first general cleaning. General Cleaning and Maintenance: Regular cleaning and maintenance will keep your rifle running its best. This outline is by no means the only way to maintain a rifle. But if you are unfamiliar with the process, this is a good outline to guide you in the right direction. Make sure your Firearm is unloaded before cleaning. In general, keep your rifle free of dust and grit build up. Simply wipe off the bolt and swab out the receiver with cloths and q-tips, using a commercial gun cleaner designed for general grime. Similarly, wipe down the outside of your firearm as well. Compressed air also works well for removing dust and debris. Inspect and clean your bolt face with solvent and q-tips, paying particular attention to removing any brass flakes or debris build up around the ejector and extractor. Light oil on a hand towel works great for wiping down your rifle and keeping it looking new. Keep your bolt lugs lubed with a small amount of bolt grease such as TM Ultra and Montana X-Treme. This will help keep the rifle well lubed and prevent bolt lug galling. Rifle bore cleaning is necessary to keep your rifle shooting accurately. Each cartridge designated rifle may require different cleaning intervals depending on such things as: bullet bearing surface length, bullet velocity, over-bore capacity, cleanliness of propellant used, rate of fire, etc. Normally, experience has shown that anywhere from 100 to 300 rounds are within reason for the frequency of cleanings. Cartridges like the 308 Winchester can go as high as 500 under certain circumstances. Always clean from breach to muzzle. For general bore cleanings, remove your rifle's bolt and insert a bore guide through your rifle's receiver. Using a properly sized jag covered with a patch, apply Bore Tech Eliminator to the patch and push it through the bore. Always clean from breach to muzzle. This will soften up the majority of bore fouling. Follow this up by running a properly sized bronze or nylon brush through a wet bore for 5-6 stokes. This will help to loosen up stubborn copper and carbon fouling. (Recently I switched to nylon brushes since bronze brushes can give you false positives on the presence of copper fouling.) Continue with more wet patches of Bore Tech Eliminator once every 5 minutes, until your patches come out clean, or with just a faint tint of blue. Usually only two or three wet patches sessions is needed. Once you are satisfied your bore is free of copper fouling, dry out the bore with some clean patches. If you wish, you can run a wet patch of oil thru the bore, followed by a dry patch to remove the excess oil. This is also a good idea if you plan on storing the gun for a period of time before shooting it again. Make sure you swab out your chamber. I use a bore swab such as the one included in the inexpensive Tipton Action and Chamber Cleaning Kit. It includes a chamber swab and a lug recess cleaning tool. Applying a small dab of quality grease (such as TM Ultra or Montana X-Treme) to your bolt lugs after every cleaning to help to prevent bolt lug galling. Never fire your rifle without first running a dry patch down your bore to insure you have no bore obstructions, or excessive oil in your barrel. I always fire two “fouling shots” before I hunt with a recently cleaned barrel – or rely on a shot for sighting in. You will note that the point of impact may be off as much as ½ inch at 100 yards within the first two shots. Persistent Carbon Fouling At about every 300-500 rounds fired, we recommend cleaning out any carbon build up in your bore. This can be seen with a bore scope, if available. Or this may be needed if you have an unexplained degradation of accuracy. Carbon typically builds up in the first 1-12 inches of your bore. So this is the area that must be cleaned. First, clean your barrel with the above outlined procedure for a general bore cleaning, to remove copper fouling. Now we can begin to remove the carbon build up. J-B Bore Cleaning Compound may be the most effective way available to remove carbon build up. J-B is a mild abrasive paste. Coat a patch with a layer of paste, and using a jag and bore guide, push the jag into the first 6 inches of bore, from the chamber end, and stroke the area 3-4 times back and forth. Then stroke out to 12 inches 2-3 times, working back and forth from chamber to 12 inches out. Lastly, push the patch all the way out the barrel with no back and forth strokes past the 12 inch mark. The patch will be black. This is a reaction with the paste and barrel steel. Don’t assume you need to repeat this procedure. Doing it just once has proven to remove 90% of carbon fouling. Now using bore cleaner and jagged patches, push a multitude of patches wet and dry through the bore to remove any and all remaining paste, and once again swab out the chamber. Over-use of any abrasive in a custom barrel will damage the bore, so follow these instructions carefully and do not overuse. Firing pin and internal bolt cleaning is best accomplished by a certified gunsmith, special tools may be required for the removal of the firing pin assembly from the bolt. All Long Range Rifles are properly lubed at the shop. If you experience problems with your rifle's bolt and firing pin assembly or have exposed your rifles bolt to excessive dirt, grit or water, have your bolt internals cleaned and lubricated immediately. Trigger cleaning is normally accomplished by removing the barreled action and spraying lighter fluid or alcohol into the mechanism and then blowing dry with compressed air. Using oil in a trigger can cause a buildup of dust and sludge leading to a possible malfunction. Keep your triggers clean and dry for best results. Muzzle Brake Cleaning Carbon build up in a muzzle brake can cause a degradation of accuracy when the buildup gets heavy. Clean your brakes at regular intervals. If you feel a muzzle accessory is causing an accuracy issue, remove it and test fire your gun to eliminate it as a possible source. Soaking and brushing seem to be the preferred method of brake cleaning. Be careful not to damage your rifle's crown when cleaning muzzle accessories.

  17. When I pick up my brass after shooting , I seem to pick some up from other shooters , I don't check brand or Primer size , I just pick up 45 brass . if I see new once fired any brass I pick it up ,because I can't tell the difference between my clean brass & new . SS Tumbling , you know . ?
  18. I put this in the Political picture of the day ,but thought it should be here also.
  19. Making this happen for a LAR 8 would not be a big deal , cost , yes , but if one really wanted it , it can be done .
  20. So all the waiting in long lines for a flight was because, they were in training to hand out pamphlets for this operation . The training seminar was probably some place like Reno or Hawaii . This is good training for a national Police force !
  21. They don't show the left side of the BCG on the JP, makes you wonder why , copy cat's ? The side charging handle fits in grooved channels on the side of the Receiver , like a FN FAL
  22. What is the TSA setting up check points for ? Isn't that out of their jurisdiction ? They have no authority on State or City roads . They using them for landing strips ?
  23. There is 20 min. of transcript we have not seen or heard yet , makes you wonder whats on that , that they don't want us to know . It could go something like this " When am I going to get paid ! " Pay him in lead
  24. I heard a story last night about someone that made it on the no fly list just by writing letters to " The Muslim King " in the USA . I will leave names & Gender out of it , because on how I heard the info . This person was out of work & when they were looking for people to work on the ACA exchanges , was told it would bring in a good pay check , so this person started to fill out the application & it got to a question if this person owned a Gun , this person thought that was an odd question & didn't answer it ( as any of us here would ) when looking at the sight to see the progress of the application , showed it was not accepted & of course it didn't take a brain surgeon to know why & was told so in so many terms by the contact with them. So this person started to throw down some scathing letters on how they are this & that , on a regular basis . Well time went by & one of this persons family members worked in a place that had to regularly check the No Fly List for their job ( not going to say who or where ) , calls this person up & said , do you know your on the No Fly List ? " What " was the answer , & his source asked "what the heck did you get into " because the source knew this person well & knew they were not the type to get into trouble . When replying about the Application & scathing letters , the source couldn't believe it . This person laughed & said they don't fly & never will , so no biggie , but getting off the list is a long time in coming , if at all . This is almost a first hand story & I believe this person , because they have no reason to make something up & other reasons I can't get into , to protect those involved . So how many more Political vendetta people are on this secret list ? They want to use it for denying someones Constitutional rights , FUK Them ,All of them ! Now the Commies are having a sit in on Capital hill , they can go to Hell !
