    Compact .45 Opinions

    in Handguns

    Posted

    I have a Springfield Ultra Compact that I carry daily. I also added the Crimson Trace grips on it. I did change the springs out shortly after purchase to add a heavier pin strike. I have never had a misfire, FTF, FTE, etc... since the change. I sighted in my laser to 15 yards and can hit just about anything with it. I'm a huge fan and highly recommend a ultra compact 1911. It's not for everyone though. It took me awhile to get use to the cock and locked carry.

    Bug Out Location

    in Survival and Preparedness

    Posted

    After reading the "Bug Out Discussion" thread, I have my own question. If something happened, aka SHTF, how far away is your "safe" location? I have been preparing a location but it's fairly close, about 30 mins or so. If it does go bad, I figure my other location would go bad too...so the question is, how far away are you preparing to go?

    Bolt ejection help.

    in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting

    Posted

    I have a remington 700 (bolt action). I went shooting today and after firing a round, I would pull back the bolt and the shell would not eject out. I would manually have to pull it out before loading the next road. It's not a HUGE deal as I practice controlled shooting so I'm shooting one round and shooting it slow. I would like the gun to function properly however. It also seemed that sometimes, the bolt would hold onto the casing, but not every time. The only thing constant is the casing would not eject. Thoughts?

    Flat top AR

    in Long Guns

    Posted

    Yes and no. To have an accurate AR you need to sight in the iron sights first. Once sighted, then you sight in the optic using the front sight. I have an eotech with a flip up back sight and I sighted her in last week. You want the holograph barely floating above the front sight. Almost like a lollipop. But it needs to be sighted in to irons before you do the optic. I'm sure everyone will have different opinions, but this is the way the air force does it. Hope this helps.
