  1. Snug Barrel Nut down & loosen three times & on the third time , torque it down to 35 ft lb. & then tighten till the the Gas Tube Passages line up ( 35-80 ft.lb.'s ). Use a Milspec grease or equivalent on the Receiver threads . Some use a Lapping tool to face off the Barrels Extension seating area on the Upper Receiver .

  3. They might have squeezed by on this one . GUN BUYS IN KATIE COURIC ‘CROCKUMENTARY’ LIKELY NOT ILLEGAL JUNE 9, 2016 MIDSOUTH SHOOTERS 1 COMMENT A legal analysis by attorneys at Texas Law Shield and U.S. Law Shield finds that filmmaker Stephanie Soechtig, members of Soechtig’s staff, and executive producer Katie Couric likely did not violate state and federal firearms-transaction laws during production of a recent anti-gun film — contrary to assertions by some pro-gun groups. Michele Byington, U.S. Law Shield Michele Byington, attorney at the law firm of Walker & Byington and a Texas Law Shield Independent Program Attorney, said, “There’s been a lot of buzz about Katie Couric’s documentary Under the Gun. Some of the buzz is praise by the anti-gun crowd, who are happy to have another biased piece of media to reinforce their pre-existing beliefs.” Byington said, “The rest of the buzzing is the hornet’s nest Katie Couric’s team kicked using editing tricks in a vain attempt to make responsible gun owners look under-informed. That’s being resolved in the court of public opinion.” What interested Byington and her colleagues were allegations that Under the Gun staff members may have conducted illegal purchases of firearms to further their narrative. “The question is, did anyone on that team actually do anything legally wrong?” Byington asked. Byington said the documentary shows one individual purchasing guns from other individuals; they do this to illustrate how easy it is to obtain firearms. But then Under the Gun’s director Soechtig gave an interview to TheLipTV that raised four major issues: That members of her staff may have purchased firearms across state lines; That members of her staff may have purchased a firearm for someone else, at someone else’s direction; What a “conspiracy” is under federal law; And the consequences the producer’s actions could have on the sellers. At about 1:35 into the TheLipTV video interview, Byington said Soechtig’s lack of gun-transaction knowledge adds a whole different dimension to the entire scenario. Byington said, “The interview states that one of the producer’s employees, who resides in Colorado, had to go to Arizona to purchase the firearms. You may be wondering why they had to leave Colorado to buy these guns for the documentary.” Byington added, “That’s because Colorado has a universal background check law in place. What their efforts really show are how if someone is determined, they will break the law to get what they want.” Based on the information that’s available in the media, she went further to break down the possible legal violations: Purchasing a Firearm Across State Lines Byington explained that the law is strict in regards to purchasing handguns or long guns outside of an individual’s state of residence. “Long guns can be purchased from a licensed dealer, as long as both your state of residence and state of purchase have no laws prohibiting your purchase,” she said. Handguns, however, cannot be purchased in another state, either privately or from a licensed dealer, and be brought back into your state of residence. In the TheLipTV interview, Soechtig stated that they purchased a Bushmaster and three handguns from private individuals, Byington said. (Byington also noted that the Soechtig and interviewer both incorrectly referred to the Bushmaster as an “assault weapon.”) Byington said that while the Under the Gun staff seemingly did purchase the firearms out of their resident state, it only becomes a crime if they take the firearms back to their resident state. “As dumb as it sounds, they can buy the gun in one state, so long as they don’t take it home, they haven’t committed a crime,” Byington said. So, the question is, did the Under the Gun staff take the guns to their home state of Colorado? “It would appear not,” Byington said. The producer, in another interview, stated that the firearms were immediately turned over to Arizona law enforcement officers for use or destruction. “So, no crimes were committed so far,” Byington said. Straw Purchase Byington said straw purchases are defined in 18 U.S.C. § 922(a)(6); this applies whenever you purchase a gun for someone else from a licensed dealer. Byington said, “Because they purchased from individuals, this doesn’t apply at all. So no crime here either.” Conspiracy “18 U.S. Code Section 371 defines the crime of conspiracy,” Byington said. Byington added that the elements of the crime of conspiracy are simply, 1) Two people conspire to commit a federal offense; and 2) One or more of the conspirators do something to effect that crime. For allegations of this crime to get traction, the question boils down to, what was their initial plan? Byington explained that, “If the plan was to take the guns back to Colorado, then they were planning to commit a crime, and that would satisfy the elements for conspiracy. But if the plan all along was to turn it over to Arizona law enforcement, they were not planning a crime, and conspiracy wouldn’t stick either.” The Sellers Byington also pointed out that in their dishonest quest to purchase firearms, innocent individuals may have been caught in the producer’s wake. “The worst part is, the producers did not even consider that they had implicated the sellers of the firearms,” Byington said. “Soechtig and members of her staff went out of their way to engineer the perfect situation for the documentary while guaranteeing their own legal safety, but put innocent gun owners at risk.” It is illegal to knowingly sell a firearm to an individual from another state without going through a licensed firearm dealer, even if they don’t take it back to their resident state. “So if the producers said, ‘Hey, we’re from Colorado doing a documentary, can you sell us these guns?’, they tricked the sellers into committing federal offenses. If they didn’t say anything at all, then the sellers are legally safe.” Byington said that, assuming the producer and documentary team — who have continuously lied and misrepresented facts to push their agenda already — are telling the truth about what they did with the guns after their purchase, then they didn’t commit a crime. Byington said, “In making this documentary, which was trying to illustrate why we need more laws that make it harder to buy guns, the team almost broke existing laws that were supposed to regulate gun purchasing. That is too ironic to miss.” Related

  5. Does the Hag have any thing to wear but Tent tops or smocks ? Beside Armani , does Coleman have a production line for her . The fix is in for her one way or the other, kinda makes you wonder two ways , the fix or the Shitgago fix . The Shitgago fix would be since blowhard doesn't like the Cllt-tons , he may know she is up the river & making nice till the FBI is done & toss her to the wolves & put his Court Jester in , in her place .There are those saying she will drop out & give her pledged delegates to The Village Idiot & screw Burnie over at the same time . They do seem to be rallying the troops & I don't see Pokaasses becoming a VP pick , she wants the first Cow for POTUS to be for her alone , Pokaasses would take some of her lime light away being the first Cow POTUS .
  6. I like my shooting stick , makes a good walking stick also . Makes a big difference when still hunting & you can get a good study rest rapidly . Stop it to my Back pak when not in use.. I can tell you there are some crappy ones out there for sure . I can buy a new firearm for what that one costs, damn .
  7. The Brass show signs of the Bolt smashing or trying to crush them because of them not being ejected & the unfired round , looks normal for one that was partly fed ,marks are from the Barrel extension locking lugs . You may have more then one issue , I didn't see the measurement of the inside depth of the Lower Receiver Extension , spring & Buffer look correct ,if using a Carbine Stock assembly -Gas Block correctly lined up with gas port on Barrel. - I agree , try to stay away from the exposed lead on the Bullet tip ,ammo . -You could also need some feed ramp work . -Ejector or Extractor could be restricting the Cartridge base from entering the Bolt face or one or both have issues with weak springs or Burr's , preventing them from working freely .
  8. Hell , the ones with out them are the most interesting to listen too !
  9. Perhaps you should enlighten us to some of them for a preview, before you step away from life on this Planet .
  10. Yes , it should have read slung . I type too fast sometimes , so excuse my miss print .
  11. I use Beachin's slings hunting in Ohio , both with a SlugGun & a 45-70 & the work great . I carrie both slug across the body ( Muzzle up , on my back ) & on the Shoulder & they stay as good as any other sling I have & just as comfortable .

  18. Why not have your chamber Finish Reamed to a 7.62x 51 chamber, no change in Head space , just a slightly different chamber dimensions . You should still check it with the proper Head space Gages. Or polish the Chamber , it may be tight because of it being rough .
  19. That's the way it should be , for all Manufacturers.
