I started my site because I find a lot of reviews out there lacking. They'd often avoid any constructive criticism and many of the reviews online use very few images. I review bows, rifles and other hunting equipment, I shoot 3 gun, and am a Mapleseed trainer.

I did a complete disassembly, bolt and all to clean thoroughly. Then did this mod; it works. It took two attempts, getting that rounding just right at the top where the spur was. But I have a problem now and can't figure it out! After the gun is back together in the stock, the magazine won't go in. If I had to take a guess, I'd say it has something to do with this mod. That top little pin that holds the ejector...is the problem there? Also the two pins that are normally doing their best to fall out on you are now hard to get in. The bolt just(!) has to be put back together right 'cause the bolt pin won't let the bolt slide back down unless it is sitting in it's recess. I need help.
Ok, got it, but I can't even tell you what was wrong. Just everyone know that if those two pins that hold the trigger mechanism don't want to fall out easily, something is wrong. The ejector was always in correctly if that's what you're thinking. I had previously replaced the stock trigger with a BX and it's a lot better, but I still wish it was butter-smooth....saying that I knew the basics here. Anyway, I will NEVER take that bolt out again! It is a bitch to get that spring and catch back under the bolt because you're pushing it at an angle. The only way I could get it to go back was to make a short square block(by cutting off the end of a cleaning brush) and using it to push all that back evenly, then the bolt will drop. Mine seemed to be a tight fit to begin with as I had to finagle it every which way just to get it out. Some things just aren't worth the trouble.🙉🙈🙊
God Almighty, as if America didn't have enough guns and gun nuts, they also shoot at explosive targets? What a truly sick society...how many more mass shootings will you accept? (more than one per day at present).
Man. I commented on the video itself. Because I was pretty upset. Your video on the 22 disassembly and reassembly. Caused a lot of people to ruin their springs. Me included. If I had just watched the next video in the list he shows how to do it the right way. I wonder how many other peoples 22s got destroyed.
Lucky you, you still have your Remington Nylon 66, the Mohawk model. It was the first firearm I bought in the very late 70s or early 80s. I am sorry I sold it as it was mint. I might try to find one in great shape to add to my CZ 457 MTR.
So a few years later and you get a huge thumbs down because you didn’t go into what direction to put the little buffer block or anything you just let people guess way to go
The 6.5x55 Skan loads have been around for decades. Hornady reloading data will not show the modern version of the cartridge's in their data. I guess I get it because it will outperform the Creed! Even the 6.5 PRC cartridge hangs up slightly in the chamber before it fully seats itself. The straight cases and the steep shoulder make for less than smooth loading! The 270, 30-06 and Swede load effortlessly due to the tapered case and lower shoulder angle, so smoother handling in the bush when hunting, in my opinion. Cheers
Is there anyway to be able to do 3 gun without your black badge? From my understanding you need the "black badge" to have your handgun in a holster and every class for it in my area is way to expensive to allow me to use my own property. -_-
I believe the expensive plasticy you mention is actually a Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer which is a stronger and better plastic. I.e., higher strength-to-weight ratio for reducing weight, corrosion-resistance and maintains shape under stress, low thermal expansion for dimensional stability, and durable and resistant to fatiguing.
I just picked up spitfire gen 1 after already owning primary arms slx 3x prism . For the price and warranty in Canada is what made me go for vortex as my second prism optic. PA warranty in Canada is a gongshow.
The short butt makes them good for using with heavy coats, but you can just buy a pad and it’ll add easily an extra inch or so. Have you done accuracy with it? I’ve heard they’re horrible.
Arms and ammunition companies keep inventing ("developing") new cartridges that are unnecessary so they can sell new firearms and ammunition to gun buffs. The Swede has been around since about 1898, and while not one of my favorites, it does make the Creedmoor redundant. My notion, is, if you can't get it done with a .270 or .30-06 or one of the older magnums, then you aren't going to get it done.
Will the bolt still lock back after the last round? I did this to my 10/22 years ago but can’t remember. I just put an upgraded trigger into another 10/22 and was going to do this again
There's not a lot of difference??? You don't handload do you? Was also wondering how you got that swede to fire with the safety in the "on" position. In 2000, at a gun shown in Houston, I purchased a Carl Gustav M96 with a 1912 receiver date, that had been converted to a custom hunting rifle and when I say "custom", I don't mean bubbarized. Probably one of the most attractive hunting rifles a man could ever hope to own. And the best part of it is that it will consistently shoot 3 shot groups touching with Federal Power Shok 140gr SP (these are the moly-coated bullets, they look greyish in color) and Nosler Trophy Grade 140gr Accubond. This is my go-to rifle here in Texas for whitetails and hawgs. Most people I talk to at gun shows never heard of the Swede. What a shame.
