>>64772183(cot'd) that probably made it sound like a super long in depth cleaning, whole thing start to finish was like 15-20 minutes desu of just sitting outside, including trying to find a close enough screw to half thread in and hold it for the dremel. Opposite of the flat faceted part on mine was fairly rough for some reason. I also thinking out loud am also realizing putting pressure on the blade/locking piece back and forth to find rough spots probably puts more direct pressure on parts that you normally wouldn't when opening and I'm basically forcing stuff together until I feel something rough, even if accidentally. I know the Socom Bravo isnt you guys but god damn I can breathe on mine and it'll snap open. Multiple times at work people used to think it was an auto for thumb flicking with the barest motion. >TL;DR just polishing level abrasives or the highest end of shaping grade abrasives and then straight to the polishing stuff.

>>64772317>2.5 MOA on a good day with match ammoLies of a bad shot.
>>64772317>6) Magazines are stupid expensive$40/ea from Checkmate, stop being poor.
>>64772344No, typical accuracy of a standard M1A.Let me google that for you : https://letmegooglethat.com/?q=typical+accuracy+of+a+springfield+armory+m1a+rifleMaybe Anon will get a better M1A than I had. Of course, he might also get one that's _worse_. 2.5 MOA even with match ammo is pretty middle of the road, maybe towards the worse end. But even if it is towards the worse end, it's still entirely possible to get a rifle that shoots 2.5 MOA (or worse) with match ammo that lists for $1800 US. And at that price, it's ridiculous garbage.And just FYI my 1903 is sub 2moa at 100 yards with basic bitch bulk ball ammo. I'm good enough that I know when it's the shooter or when it's the gun/ammo.>>64772388You left out "for what they are", which is a couple pieces of bent sheet metal and a spring.
>>64767735Yeah, most of them...Any AR10, Ruger SFAR is a popular one, PSA PA10, DPMSPTR91RFBM17SThe WLVRN is over that budget but worth it imo.
>>64772540>And just FYI my 1903 is sub 2moa at 100 yardsDude, what? The CMP puts the 1903s in their own category, separating them from other vintage rifles in competitions due to an inherent advantage of using the sub-MOA guns. If you are getting anywhere near 2 MOA, then that gun is either really worn out or you just suck. All you did was confirm that you're a bad shot.

>>64769835No, retard; RE6 was a good game held back from being great by constant QTEs and an insistence on Co-op (though I have some friends that loved the latter.)And RE4 was so fuckin good, a Remake couldn't fuck it up. Everything wrong with Modern RE comes from them looking at the objective masterpiece that is RE4 and steering in literally any other direction, believing they have better ideas about what the franchise can be (mostly the obsession with co-op followed by the sudden inexplicable idea that Resident Evil is "scary" and needed some first person run-and-hide slop to revitalize the franchise.)Just make a spiritual successor to RE4 (Re5 was NOT this ). That's it. That's ALL they have to do. RE's always been about unreasonably handsome/beautiful people in tactical gear fighting monsters with conventional ammo, from the start. Vulnerable player characters like Grace or Ethan need not apply.
Hey fuckers, clean your guns. Grab one and shitpost with me. ATF optional.Starting with my Moist Nugget.
Next up I got my Springfield 1911 A1, built sometime in 2006. Shes my pillow gun, i keep her ready to rock with 2 mags. Said mags are loaded with 5.1gn of win 231, and 230gn hornady xtps. Bigger holes more better, yeah? Also, muh stoppin powah, two world wars, etc.
Empty chamber and mag, ofc.>>6477240386 Firebird T/A, 305 TPI with 2.73 gears behind a 700R4. Also, an 82 Datsun 720. I wanna ditch the shitty hitachi carb and slap one of those TBI kits on, possibly turbo.
Field stripped, ready to clean
And there she is: cleaned, oiled and ready for duty
Next up is one of my favorites in my arsenal: A Remington Sportmaster 512, tube mag, in 22 short, long or lr. She was the first gun my gramps ever bought with his own money, built in december 1940 or january 1941.Gramps had a 3/4 scope mounted to it, but the wires went funky on me somewhere. Got a cheap $20 tasco from walmart on it now.I stripped and refinished the barrel and receiver last year with one of those birchwood casey kits, and im pleased with the look. I wanna redo the stock with a kokopelli on it, havent decided what route to take.

>>64771073I bet you had a lot of failures to fire because you kept forgetting to take the safety off, too.
>>64736234One of the few really nice-looking bullpups. Do you know if anyone makes a 10rnd Norma mag for it, or is it limited to 5rnds in the bigger cartridges?
>>64769782>Do you know if anyone makes a 10rnd Norma mag for it, or is it limited to 5rnds in the bigger cartridges?They have 8 rnd mags for long action not just 5, that's what I'm using with 30cal, you can see the length a little more clearly from the front here. And since the mags are designed to hold 8 rounds of 338lm, it actually is possible to squeeze in an extra round of 300wm too though it's tighter to feed the first and maybe not a good idea to do regularly, but in principle you could have 9+1 and it'll work. Being designed for 338 also means you've got all the coal you could ever want for 30cal. The 8rnd mag is long enough though that you can't rest the gun flat anymore on the handle and need the monopod or a sandbag.It's a first party mag designed just for the srs though and afaik nobody else makes something compatible, just too fucking niche. Be pretty surprised to see anyone do a mag clone for a boltie that has probably sold low to mid 5-figures worldwide in its entire history. And they're expensive. Fortunately it's at least a pretty decent mag.
>>64768383be a little surprised if it takes long. all the years of """oil filters""" being sold for $50 and work gudenuf shows chinese can pump out 50 cents worth of steel tube and baffles cheap given the opportunity.
>>64723918Is that a standard ar15 upper or something bougie?
>>64771392>338 LapuaGood cartridge, but I'm specifically interested in .300 Norma Magnum, or ideally 7-300 Norma Improved (which should feed fine out of any .300 or .338 Norma magazine). On their website, DT lists a 5-round mag for .300 Norma/.338 Norma/7mm Remington, while the 8-round mag is only advertised for .338 Lapua and .300 Win Mag. Is that wrong and the 8-round mag will feed the Norma Magnums just fine? I guess I wouldn't be too surprised if it did but you never know with proprietary magazines.

>>64772237Well, for security purposes, it's arguably one of the best things you can get, since it's light anti-materiel. Security contractor for a nuclear power plant? Pretty nice to have one of those in case you get some technicals rolling up... but ofc those sorts of buyers can afford to spend a few thousand extra on existing products.
>>64772276Yeah, that's true. You're right. Honestly, there are security guards in major cities rolling turkshit magfed shotguns and ARs at gas stations. If Level IV plates continue becoming more and more mainstream you're going to need a .50 cal to punch through heavily armored gangbangers at overwatch distances. Would be one hell of a meta change though to have dudes with fifties on top of gas stations. Maybe more for public speaking events or special response.
