      current ATF wait time

      I had a form 3 approved in a little bit more than 48 hours. I'll update on the form 4 when I get it back.

      Making Wood barrel vice blocks

      Depending on how much torque you need, pine might be too soft. Hardwoods deform less and can grip the barrel better. Some recommended carpet or leather, but rosin powder works too.

      M1903 vs M1917

      The Garand is better than the original m1903 in every way. The improvements made to the m1903a3 closed the gap for sure. But if I had the choice, the m1903 is pretty low on my list for a combat rifle.

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      My bergara steel barrel can do the same with sk lrm. If you want the weight, go for it, but it isn't going to be more accurate per se.

      Aguila ammo any good? Any problems jamming?

      I've never had an issue. Hand gun or rifle, their rimfire stuff works.

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      I've got a b14r and it's awesome. I saw a significant improvement on my prs scores after using it as a trainer. Rimex and voodoo are more money for the gun, IMO the bergara is a better value. Golf balls at 100 yds are boringly easy prone out with my b14r. An ar500 Kyl rack at 100 yds that's a...

      M1903 vs M1917

      What!! That's awesome. I've got to find a couple of the hoods on the right. Thanks for the info. Edit... never mind. The USMC hood is $80 compared to the standard one which is around $10. I'll just 3d print something before I spend $80 on that piece of metal. But thanks for the info. I didn't...

      M1903 vs M1917

      I have the same hood on mine, but I had to take it off. I really struggled to see the target with the hood on and with the v notch. The front sight post was too fine for being in the shade/dark.

      M1903 vs M1917

      I'd take the m1917 every day, but I picked up my 1903 for $100 a couple years ago. It's a crazy story, but long story short, a family member was showing me this old 30-06 he picked up for $100 from an old guy down the street. Based on the shocked look on my face when he showed it to me, he asked...

      M1903 vs M1917

      I just picked up an Eddystone M1917 to add to the collection and was able to shoot it Friday. I also have an RIA M1903 amongst other classics I was able to compare it to. But to compare same era rifles, I focused on WWI rifles. Both receivers were made in 1918, but the 03 barrel is a 41...

      Anyone use these mags? Any good?

      As already said, promags are great if you want to practice clearing stoppages. Otherwise, not even close to worth the price.
