Wat's Guns-N-Stuff Thread

There's an ATF convenience store joke there right below the surface.

 

[Rightguide]

Been there done that. I love #9, but it hasn't touched it really.


Maybe they're . . . wait for it . . . the untouchables . . . .

Can you see the rifling?

Oh yeah, they all have rifling.

Maybe you could try a few strokes of a very fine lapping compound.

There's another thought.


We'll add this to the other 1,481 projects that seem to pile up around Rancho Wat.

You know, the fun never stops. But there's no boredom on the horizon, so it has its benefits.

I would disagree that the "Kentucky guy" was being "responsible".

Compared to the other two, he is very responsible. I shoot some old weapons, and I am very aware that at anytime something could break. That doesn't make me irresponsible, I take that risk in as safe as possible method and I'm the only one who would be injured.

The target's irreverent, unless the backstop or ricochet area's can endanger someone.

Same here. A list of do's to stay ahead of and every once in a while the Finger of Fate sneers and offers an edit or two.

Yes, some targets are notorious for skipping church services.

Or something reeeeally interesting pops up and says, "hi, look at me!" And then I do. Rarely do I regret it. A I said, never bored, thanks be to Allah.

Granted, the Kentucky guy was marginally more responsible than the other dolt, but pushing an older weapon to its limits and firing “hot” rounds of unknown origin and specifications / condition at a fire hydrant doesn’t win Kentucky guy any prizes for responsibility in my book.

I suspect you are quite responsible when firing your old weapons, and you know exactly what the condition of the ammunition that you’re firing is. - If you’re firing at anything other than game or targets, well,…

000 Steel wool works well too.

They can magnaflux engine blocks. I wonder about barrels. It looks to be easy enough to do.

It can be done but the question is what will it pick up? Barrels are a LOT more robust than some folks think, unless it's totally blocked the most likely point of failure is going to be the bolt.

Which was my thought based on general observation and what led to the original question. So If I happen to ruin something along the way, I do have a couple of sacrificial lambs.

And yet my ability to exercise my right to keep and bear arms changes from State to State...

As I mentioned before, Naval Jelly is a semi-parkerizing process, meaning that it seals the steel including any micro fractures. Firing the rifle will, of course, start to remove the coating from the surfaces that the bullet contacts but not the micro fractures, they will remain sealed for quite some time.

I strongly suspect that the associate justice would find that anywhere from absurd to unenforceable. I like him because he knew thing or two about tyranny, totalitarianism and Nazis.

I'll have to read up on it a bit.

Wat is "triggered".

Quite appropriate for the ammosexual incel that started this pathetic thread.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yep, firearms have triggers. Who knew?????
