I'm A Master Gunsmith - Ask Me Anything

Rock salt rounds? Possible or not? 20ft will do in most cases, no need for a sniper round.

If you were going to buy an AK and planned to spend $400 or less - which version would you purchase?

Yeah OP's full of shit you haven't figured this out. First off no such thing as a 70 calibre bullet, so what ?.. OP made his own dies for lead?.. Then what? Push a bullet that big and heavy at 500 feet per second lol. You're a tool.......

LOLZ! No such thing, Jesus, ya fucking child..... If you're that poor you should be worried about a new fucking job instead of a fucking new gun.....

Notice how OP shut the fuck up.. Because he doesn't know the first fucking thing about firearms just a liar....

Why?... My .45-70 would kill a fucking elephant, so again.. why? For children who don't know fuck all about ballistics? Knock down is nothing but kinetic energy the smaller and faster the deadlier. No such thing as a 70 caliber bullet by any manufacturer, because there is no such need for anything.

More likely he found better things to when a loud mouthed asshole showed up to his thread

Naw cunt it's because he couldn't answer my real question on the subject because he's a lying cunt....

Fucking tool....

Since when did 'need' ever get involved.
Low power shell would still disable most machines on or off road.

We call that Artillery in the Army when I was in, Christ....

I was arty, those are the big guns.
But, .70 cal could happen simply as a 12 guage with heavy sabot, I saw a 16 guage revolver once. not sure if I want to fire it.
Even saw a wetodd that made a .50 BMG pistol. not sure what the heck he was thinking. If a guy has tools, he can make anything.

Ft. Sill Baby! I was Benning eleven bravo, then Schoefield. I lucked out of Korea

Maybe this thread was bait..

More than likely.

And the thing is, this "armorer" answered him....

What AK can you buy for $400? Don't buy a century arms AK. WASRS are good guns. Romanian made. Romanian made dracos are good. Basically a cut down wasr. They will have an ak looking grip, not the more modern grips. They're imported by century arms. Century arms AKs will not last. The C39 and RAS. They use cheap cast parts and don't heat treat the parts properly. Eastern european AKs use forged trunnions. All stamped AK receivers will crack around the 130,000 shots fired mark. Milled recievers will never crack. This is info from a gun range in Las Vegas. They said the wasrs are good guns. The barrels are great.

WASR's are golden, but Palmetto State is ok. Nothing less than 599 though OP is a tool..... Just caught a couple ruskie bakelites on SG ammo? Haven't been around for 7 fucking years, hope yougot a few... $50 each

Why do some gun barrels seem to need 5-6 rounds through them (heating them of course) to settle back into a happy constant? For instance I was competing at the Nationals many moons ago using a Win. 300 mag. at 1000yds (Winbledon Cup Match)

Unfortunately I ended up losing in a shoot-off with a 97-8X all because my rifle always needed 5 or more rounds down the barrel before settling back on zero.

We were only allowed (if I remember correctly) 2 or 3 rounds to zero and then the match would begin and my biggest fear was that I had to start with a cold barrel.

Praying for a miracle knowing my rifle had always slung out rounds at 2 o'clock when cold. I decided not to change windage and elevation and use only Kentucky windage.

As a result I found that I underestimated a bit with my 1st shot for record an 8 at 2 o'clock, 2nd rnd was a 9 at 2 o'clock (now properly warmed) the remaining 7 shots all X's for a 97-8.

I believe the winning score was a 98-4X. I never knew before hand that I would ever end up having to end up in a high level match that allowed for such a few number of sighter rounds.

I've always looked back and wondered what the outcome would have been if I had used a different rifle than the one I used that had this particular and somewhat peculiar quirk?

Question is,..Why are some gun barrels so sensitive to heat while others not so much?

Since the army uses the failed and ancient gas impingement method of actuating the M-16 A2, and m-4 pos what is your personal recommendation to improve upon this dirty design?

Using a pair of pliers and a coat hanger approx. how long would it take to make an auto sear that will render an AR 15 fully automatic?

OP doesn't even own a fucking gun you stupid fuck, oh, and also, my A2 killed more men at over 300 meters than you ever met in 92.... And yeah, still kept working.

That is easy, you just buy an m-16 lower for your ar15, then once you have that in place, replace it with an m-16 upper.

Ummm BS. You were where in 92? You like every body else??
Done some bad shit?? Can't talk about it.
BS.
Well you know what, I was a cold war trained and never killed anybody.

Then you were lucky. I got college money out of it. Yeah and Navy don't count fairy....

And that does not bother me one bit. I do not have to prove my bona fids to sickos who think bragging a body count means they are a man.

A cold barrel has a bigger cross section, and sounds like the rifling was causing it to spin out in that direction (up and to the right). When it heated up the barrel cross section got reduced enough to control the exit properly. Just a guess.

Over cleaning with a bore brush maybe? Or just shot out?

And what do you do for a living?

Count? Read? Get backhanded by your wife?

D!ck post you pu$$!

Last I checked navy squids dont kill anybody, we did... But yeah, the reason most t=don't talk about it is to make little men like you feel smaller than you already are. you're more than welcome to our next reunion and you;'ll see.
