The first time I completely disassembled my 1911, I was reading a Guns and Ammo magazine. When i pulled out the sear/disconnector pin and the goodies fell out in my lap without my seeing their relationship, I was worried. As it turns out, they only work one way! My wife at the time came through...

The use of cell phones is the bane of grammar.

Steel cased ammo has been and will continue to be used as a cost reduction method of production. The AK system was designed from the outset (as were other platforms with fluted chambers) to use steel cased ammo. The AR, being an American animal, was designed around brass cased ammo. It has been...

Is that phosphated, matte blue, melanite, or cerakote?

Nice! It looks pretty official to me.

Hummm, I thought we were talking about 308s and having fun?

Smokey means it was working properly.

Looks brand new! Very nice!

Gee, it looks better in the photos! I forgot to post the photo and then struggled with my photo application. This one has a stainless brother that is virtually brand new. I carried this one (Stain Nickle) for about ten years both at work and off. new, higher fixed sights full length recoil...

Ooo! That's a lotta ham! Good clean fun that he'll remember forever.

My father used to say, "Slick as Owl Sh!#", too. Of course that is not supposed to say anything about my age or parentage either!

But, is that a brass door knob?

I read about the roller cam pin and gas key upgrade and thought it would be a worthwhile upgrade. https://www.tacticallink.com/Patriot-Ordnance-Factory-POF-Roller-Cam-Pin-Gas-Key-Upgrade-Kit-for-AR15.html I purchased the other bolt parts from Bear Creek Arsenal. The combination operates much...

Hey, I had two younger brothers. I couldn't wait to finally have a woman of my own! Of course, they didn't give classes on how to choose a good one so I made a poor decision on the first go. Thank God He put me on the right track for the second go and did I get a peach! We have been together for...

Excellent point! Revolvers eliminate most of the issues presented by the semi-automatic. My wife, owner of a Ruger 45, a Walther PPKS, and a Glock 36 wound up with the Colt's King Cobra. Smooth trigger, potent caliber, stainless steel, positive loading/unloading but a tad wider that the semis...

Good grief! When I saw Saving Private Ryan in the theaters (in quad), I actually ducked in my chair...twice. Much like the launch scene in Apollo 13, that opening scene in Ryan was Hollywood's best capturing of a real event ever.

Exactly, particularly when handling a loaded and probably cocked handgun in the "off safe" condition. Juggling a loaded firearm just doesn't seem too smart. Hey, I have plenty of experience being a dolt and I can speak to idiot moves well!

This would apply only if you were left-handed. Good catch!

I always get a flashlight and peer down the muzzle to see if my handgun is loaded. As an aside, it works well for revolvers, rifles and shotguns. All kidding aside, when loading the semi-auto it is always preferable to use the retained spring pressure of the slide to load the chamber. Allowing...

I never tried to edit God from the process. Without that spark of creativity, we would all be comic dust.
