    Has it got a mid-barrel bulge? You'd feel the different resistance to a brush as you push/pull it through. The dark section of the bore is usually caused by pitting, not bulging. Before doing...

    I've heard of some No 4 (T) two-groovers. It was a manufacturing expediency to only cut two grooves, as rifling machines cut one groove at a time, but the two-groove barrels had to be shown to...

    Woody liked post by Cordite On thread : Hunting with a knee injury
    Wear a proper hinged knee brace and your knee is as stable as with an intact ACL, I'd say that's a bare minimum before you set out. You'll need to buy a decent one for post-op ACL reconstruction...

    Yes, if their prophet can reasonably be trusted to be the very oracle of God, then they are not insane.

    Agree. I have reflected on ANZAC day about those who "gave their lives", "sacrificed themselves" for us. More accurate to say they paid the ultimate price, or just, they died. Sane people (other...

    If you need glasses for distance you need to wear those when using a red dot. Not really a problem as you are wise wearing something for eye protection. Optician can also correct for astigmatism...

    Gun is derived from the Old English word, "gonne" which means a military/war contraption. Indeed the earliest handheld firearm was the handgonne. Maybe the only safe place word left is "musket"? (-;

    The top wood shown is the bare minimum, to stop burning your fingers. Not enough to prevent mirage from a hot barrel though. But for hunting neither is an issue. Nice SMLE sporter there. Protect...

    The shroud allowed the gun to fire at 10 rounds per second, or 600 rpm. But would it be sufficient to cope with 1200 rpm like on the MG42? Maybe, as the higher rate of fire would have pulled more...
