Official T4R "Firearms" thread

Cool thread. I actually customize pistols for a living.

Here some I just did.

Just completed my first ever AR build
16” overall length barrel
Hopefully it shoots as nice as it looks

10mm is awesome. Ive had one for decades....finally it is coming back around. Just a short note...your giving every advantage of the 10mm up with the short barrel your using. Others are much better if your going short...need 5 or more for the 10mm to really shine.
 
Console Vault mod using ammo can!

Been meaning to post this for a while.

I picked up a console vault and my first reaction was !! WTF !!

There is a 'notch' in the vault metal for the storage console accessory panel. This panel had a coin holder, and the audio 'aux' input jack.

So I got me an ammo can and went to work.

I cut down the ammo can and placed it with more than enough notch coverage, then made sure the placement was correct before marking where to drill mounting holes in the bottom. I had to remove the entire center console to accomplish this.

I also needed to trim the existing storage bin 'plastic', but this does not matter because the entire vault just bolts into the storage space anyway. I added extra washers to avoid crushing the bottom of the plastic storage bin.

My 4R had a 'blank' button in the center console, so I just reloaded the blank with the 'Aux' jack. I was able to trim the 'blank' filler to fill in the slight gap due to the aux jack size difference (not pictured). I was surprised it fit so well.

Shot my 1st ever Deer yesterday late afternoon with a Federal 62gr Fusion out of my Windham AR15 Carbine. I guess it was a 50 to 75yd shot. The Deer jumped up in the air and landed DRT.

Tele-checked it, field dressed it, brought it over to one of the CWD testing sites last night. Dropped it off at the processor this morning. I figure putting meat in freezer allows me a buffer to look for a bigger buck.

I still have another Doe Tag and an Any Deer Tag to use.

It's always a good day when the SBR you assembled runs smooth and makes lots of little holes without a single issue on first use. Only had to adjust the sights a little. (Most of the holes outside of 10/head were DA sight acquisition pistol drills at 30ft.)

The latest is my Saint AR Pistol. Got a couple of "Scary" black rifles. And yes ... according to my birth city ... San Francisco (Still won't call it "Frisco"), I am a "Domestic Terrorist". Shit Heads!

I didn't expect much from GSG .22 1911 clone, but the damn thing shoots amazingly well and digests whatever ammo I feed it (contrary to about every other 1911 I've owned). Great practice gun, points like second nature, cheap... love it!

What are the top two carbines about? thanks



Reising Model 60 and Smith & Wesson Light Rifle. The Reising is in 45 ACP and the S&W 9mm. Both WW2 era carbines.

that large S&W magazine thru me. At least I was right on the .45 mag. thanks



The entire assembly is actually a milled magazine well. The actual magazine fits in through the front of the well and the rear half of the well is a chute that shrouds the ejection port so the casings eject below the magazine. It’s a very strange setup and an absolute nightmare to manufacture I would guess. I have no idea what the designers were thinking when they designed this gun, it’s one of the most awkwardly designed firearms I’ve ever run into.

I need suggestions for a 1 piece scope mount. AR height.

the issue im running into, is the scope. its VERY short. Nikon p223 3x. I have to double check the measurement tonight when I get home, but I believe its 3.625" between the bells.

im having a hard time finding a 1 piece mount, that is small enough to fit.

the primary arms basic mount looks close, but its SO heavy. nearly as heavy as my scope. no thanks..


this is the exact scope, for reference.

P-223 3x32 Matte BDC Carbine from Nikon


im a huge fan of the aero precision ultralight mounts. and am seriously considering modifying one to fit my scope. but thought I would ask here first, in case someone knows of a better solution.

One of the reviewers mentions using Nikon P Series mounts.
I'd go with those:

So far I have found that it doesn't like Federal .22 long rifle bird shot (for snakes). It will fire the first round but it will not eject. May need more than one shot. LOL! Other than that it is a really sweet shooter and I love mine, too.
 
CA featureless AR's are donkey shit.

Been training a lot with my 590A1 lately since Governor Hair Gel doesn't want me defending myself with the best weapon available.

More power outages tomorrow. I don't even bother restocking the fridge anymore.
