Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone here into firearms?

You know what bums me out? I can't go shoot a rifle now because of my torn bicep muscle. I can still shoot a handgun with the other hand tho.

I'd relocate where the light is mounted on the rifle though. Just my opinion.

After many years of talking about it....I'm finally converting my USC into a UMP.

HKparts.net is liking me right now.

Some thing to remember about Taurus revolvers is they have a life time warranty. The rear ball lock for the cylinder broke/wore out on my 608 (large frame 8 shot .357 mag) and they fixed it for free. Only cost me shipping to get it to them.

That's neat. This would be helpful building 300blk cases from 5.56.

From what I've been reading. A lot of long range guys are annealing every 2nd reload to keep the neck tension the same. And are using this to do it.

What I was implying is this annealer would make annealing bulk amounts of brass easier.

My P30L got a make over to day.



HKParts Micro Comp
HKParts Extended Magwell
HKParts 20 Round Magazines
HKParts 5 round Magazine Extensions (for my existing mags)
Dawson Precision Competition Sights
H&K German made P30L Threaded 9mm Barrel (RARE!)



BTW I got the MGW sight pusher a long time ago.
Having many HK pistols, it made sense getting one.
FYI it doesn't work with Dawson Precision Rear Competition sights.

Also I finished my USC to UMP conversion a while back but forgot to post the after pics.






For all the Glock guys out there, my G19 Gen 4 is getting some parts very soon. One part might interest you guys. Stay tuned.

Got one of these today at Cabelas. A Hornady Lock-N-Load Ammo Concentricity Tool. Did a batch of loaded bullets after I got home. Got all of them under .001.

I have one of those. Mod 29-2 with the 6.5" barrel. Bought it in 1977 when I turned 21. The blue velvet in the case fell apart. Which I have to replace.
