  1. I had a similar problem and it was caused by the mags. They were applying to much spring force at the rear of the follower. I remedied this by bending the end of the top coil of the spring up so that it made contact with the front of the follower (the end the rounds come out). I did it with needle nose pliers and bent about 1/2" back from the end of the coil at about a 30 degree angle. This may not have anything to do with your issue but it may be worth of look. Good luck.

  8. I agree that the M1 would make a good zombie gun. At 100 yards it has about the same energy as the muzzle energy of a 357 Magnum with an equivalent bullet weight. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  9. I'm interested. I'll drop you a PM. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  10. Negative on the knife. I am open to any of the others depending on the type of hunting. If it is a stalk I would prefer to use a rifle or pistol. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  11. Yes I would. Look like fun and I have heard they are good eating. Don't know much about it, or have a place to go. Thought a paid hunt might be a good way of getting some experience. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. When deer season ends I get the hunting withdraws. To ease the withdraw symptoms after deer season this year I want to go on a hog hunt. I have heard of reasonably priced outfitted weekend hunts in Texas, but it is hard to tell what you get for your money. Have you been on any hog hunts that were great experiences? Where did you go? How was the hunting, accommodations, and guides? What was it day or night hunting? What was the cost? And anything else that you care to share. Thanks in advance for your responses.

  13. A couple years ago I saw a Knights Armament M110 sniper rifle and thought that style of rifle would make an awesome deer hunting rifle. I started researching and was heading down the path of doing a ground up build. As others have already mentioned parts are not standardized among manufacturers so you have to buy the upper and lower receivers and associated internals from one manufacturer. For the most part you can buy every thing else from whoever. Since I am a budget minded enthusiast, I learned that I could buy a complete rifle for about $300-$400 less without sacrificing my goals. I ended up buying a PSA PA-10, 20" SS free float barrel, 15" Midwest key-mod handguard, and a NIB BCG. I purchased the complete upper and lower separately when they went on sale. The rifle has functioned flawlessly, but I expected that from PSA. For me the gamble was the barrel, but as it has turned out I can consistently shoot sub-moa groupings with it. I really enjoy shooting the rifle and love the ergonomics for hunting. Good luck and I hope this helps. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
  14. When you have those 30 rounds mags in the gun it shoots better if you hold it sideways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Just one is a pretty abstract thought for me. I prefer to pick the tool based on the job. Based on what is going on today I would pick my PA-10. The .308 is a good all around hunting round. The high capacity semi-automatic capabilities could be handy in other situations. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
