Has anyone ever fired a gun with a 3D printed frame? I know people are doing it, but I haven’t heard actual results.
I know people are using 3D printed Glock frames and AR-15 frames (and probably a ton more) but it seems a little crazy to me. If it would work then great that’s a cheap way to...
Hello does anyone know where to get cheap AR-15 stripped lowers? I found a complete one on Classic Firearms for $100, but after tax, shipping, and FFL transfer fee it was practically $200.
What’s the cheapest total cost of a stripped lower that y’all have found? (I am perfectly fine getting a...
Hello, I am attempting to build a G17. Does anyone have any experience as to which complete slides are any good? (I’ve already completed the lower) I have have found a few options, but there are almost zero reviews. Any help?
Hi all. I’m located in the Evansville area. I’m looking to buy a low-mid range AR. Must be 5.56 or .223 Wylde. Looking for 16”-18” barrel.
Looking to spend no more than $1200 (give or take). I know that price range isn’t a true mid range budget, but it’s what I have to spend.
Feel free to...
I finally finished my 2nd 1911 build! I actually started this one before my "first" 1911 build but I did this one pretty slowly over the course of a year so it ended up finished second. I followed along Hilton Yam's Duty Tune DVD and both the video and Hilton himself were greatly helpful...
My first full and complete build, mostly back from refinishing (still some delays but **** happens). This was a very challenging but rewarding process and I'm really happy with how it turned out. I found that the best resource in learning how to do this was Hilton Yam's 10-8 1911 duty tune DVD...
If you were to build a 10mm on the 1911 platform what frame, barrel, and internals would you use? Bar-to 6" Wilson/Nowlin ramp barrel, Les Bear "Match" frame and slide, EGW Ignition Kit, and Wilson rest of the parts, S&A Magwell. bone grips
When I first found this forum and posted a request for advice on buying my first two AR 15s, one of the first and most common comments I got back was that "These guns tend to breed....". Well, I understand that now. I'm looking at building a third gun for various reasons and would like to ask...
So I'm a pretty handy guy, and I'm well-versed with YouTube. But here is my question: is it wise to build my first three ARs myself, or should I just pony up and pay my local shop $85 for each gun to do it for me?
I'm particularly interested in knowing my systems inside and out. And these are...
Basically I need to know what barrels will work in a PA10 upper.
I've had a PA10 lower for quite awhile now, and have been waiting for PSA to release an upper that I like. So far, nothing. I now want to build the upper. I contacted PSA support, and was told the "PA-10 platform is loosely...
It's tax season and profit sharing month. I'm looking at buying a daniel defense and I have my heart set on the m4v11 in tornado grey. Does anyone who owns one have any recommendations for rather I should get the pro or the lw? I held one at cabelas In noblesville awhile back and fell in love...
All, so I'm getting ready to start purchasing parts for my first AR upper. :D Lower is already taken care of (Thanks to BWFrame for a great transaction!) and I've composed the following list of parts for my upper. Take a look, tell me what I've missed, what I screwed up, and what you think I...
I have all my parts for my new upper ready to be assembled. Unfortunately I don't have the tools. Would a fellow INGOer help out? Im located in Indianapolis an will travel. I am more than happy to supply a six pack or two of your favorite beer as a thank you! I wanna get this thing out to the...
I impulsively bought a MAG Tactical stripped lower (the light weight sold me) from Beech Grove Firearms, (+1 for them,) to start my very first AR build and didn't realize the possibilities. Do I want an sbr, a carbine, a 20" barrel? Is it normal for me to want more receivers already for...
Please educate me on the Savage 10. I have a chance to buy a used youth model in 7mm-08. I am looking to buy a hunting/range rifle in this caliber and here are my thoughts:
Accutrigger has good reputation, I have no exp. w/ them.
Aftermarket stock/other accessories readily avail.
Price is...
I'm interested in building a bolt action rifle that I can hopefully, one day, use in competition. I was in the USMC and miss being on the range.
This is new territory for me and I don't really know where to start. I imagine it would be easier buying something like a Remington 700 or Ruger...
I've had a stripped lower and a few parts just sitting around for waaaay too long so I figured it needed to be built up.
Stag lower receiver
Spikes enhanced LPK
Magpul CTR stock
Magpul ASAP
Magpul B.A.D. Lever
With some help from zehn (and his tools ;)), I now have more functioning hardware to...
I have a friend that is curious about building a handgun, I told him about building maybe a 1911 or a Glock because those are the only two i've every really heard of anyone building from the frame up. I was curious if anyone knew of any others that are somewhat popular to build.
