Re: HELP Plz... AR15 part needed asap

I run a regular detent and dont worry about it, but wanted to put it out there, that if necessary, it could be ran without one. I know Russell Phagan of KE Arms runs without it and has for awhile with no issues. You can look up his videos as sinistral rifleman. Hes been doing competitions for 20 yea...

Re: HELP Plz... AR15 part needed asap

Tombstone tactical carries small parts as well. Im no expert, but i know some people run their AR's without the buffer detent and spring, because sometimes that little nub breaks off and if it does, it can get wedged into the FCG and cause issues. Those are few and far between, but it has been docum...

Re: CAL Ranch W phoenix

No problem. Found some powder there for reloading I wanted to get and a Hornady shellplate for a good price, figured I'd post what I was seeing. Got lucky with 9mm today, not so lucky on what I was looking for though...hunting .223.

Re: Deactivating Ammo Question

Im new to reloading, but have been told that you can deprime live primers. So if you, or someone you know reloads, you can reuse the primers as they are pretty impossible to find right now.

Re: First Aid

I went today to Tactical Medic out in Mesa and picked up a EDC Trauma kit that the owner made for me. Forgive me for not remembering his name. Spent $129.00 tax included. With a tear away pack. Plus Independence Training gives a free training class every 2nd Saturday of the month. I believe it is D...

Re: Drilling Out a Snapped Allen Key

Is it magnetic? Put a strongish magnet on it and see if it pulls out? Maybe also heat it up a bit?

Do you have a pic of the actual broken piece?

Re: S&W Walther 22

Learn something new everyday! Cool, that's why I wanted to verify as it sounded slightly off, but I didn't know for sure.

Re: S&W Walther 22

I can't really help, but to verify for others who can, are you sure on the brand? M&P is made by smith & wesson, unless walther makes one too? Just want to make sure you get correct advice.

Re: Ammo AZ status (open/closed)?

It doesnt help much, but i was there a couple of weeks ago and they were open.

Maybe closed for inventory or lunch or something? Ive only been there twice, so unsure how they operate.
