  1. These all look fantastic! I personally like this method rather than spending a ton of money on some "coating of the moment" enjoyed by some fan bois!
  2. drdirtnap is an oxymoron. Doctors are suppose to do no harm, however I am a proponent of "Sometimes extreme violence is the answer!"
  3. Get your replacement sight issue settled?
  4. Not knowing much about Tennessee, I spent a couple of weeks in Memphis in the early 80s, so I know nothing essentially. I need some land, outside the city, and a nicer smaller house to live in. Throw me some ideas on what areas are best. Thank you!
  5. I grew up in Wisconsin. I don't know how your humidity compares, but I remember it.
  6. So, you have a dimple in the broken Allen wrench piece. Take a fine nail set, spring loaded center punch... Heck, even a finish nail and tap on it with a steel hammer hoping the vibration will unwedge the broken piece. Alternatively, use the dimple to drill through the Allen wrench piece. Use a small drill bit and go slow with little to moderate pressure. Let the drill bit do the work. Push to hard, and it'll snap adding to the bad situation. That set of Allen wrenches you purchased are soft... They shouldn't twist off like that. Then, use the next size larger bit until you can get a screw extractor to bite well. Use little to moderate pressure removing the piece. After the Allen wrench piece is removed, you may want to try tapping in the largest Torx bit you can to remove the set screw. Use a small amount of heat if no plastic is around. I couldn't tell what it is you are working on or the material surrounding it. Take your time. Don't get frustrated.
  7. If you are still looking, there are a few on one of my local forums for $550-700. I just sold a 1959 39a Mountie for $600.
  8. In alliance with the OP, AR lowers with set screws opposed to roll pins... wonderful for those with sausage fingers!
  9. Surely, someone close to this guy can help him out. Super simple replacement!
