I just need to put a stronger recoil spring in. And stronger mag spring.

The light stiffens the frame and causes the slide to cycle too fast for the mags.

So for now she sits on the AK. Might use it to go hog hunting.

I was thinkin the other way around. The shotgun with an assault rifle on top. You might be able to fit the M203 under there too. And a flashlight.

Default Re: First Firearm Thread.

my current set up is my lee turret bolted down to an old night stand . Just got into 5.56 reloading though and need some new tools to reload rifle cases... stupid milspec primers. So far though the cases haven't expanded to the point where I need to trim them except a few. Need to play with the auto discs too to get the right powder drop as well as get powder and primers. Any suggestions for pimers? I've heard CCI #41 and I've heard #40's work as well but then i've heard NOT to use #40's.

Funny you used a nightstand!!.... The light brown 3 drawer stand under my bench to the right once was a night stand with legs....I had my Rock Chucker and powder dispenser mounted to it!

In .223 I use CCI 450's for both bolt and the AR platform
