Hahaha yeah that would be quite the broomstick of doom 😂😂😂… I really need to get an Air Force soon. For a dedicated slug shooter there’s a lot of appeal for me. But I just love repeaters 😂😂😂
Air Force uses a lot of Lothar barrels right? If you can get a 30cal one from Lothar right now (usually $180) then I’d say pull the trigger and send it. I could machine it and still have it be less than $450… but Lothar is out of the .30 cal barrels it seems.
That condor is an absolute beast!!!!
PM me a part print. My shop hooked me up with a shop that does the kind of machining we don’t do here. So I have access to a lot more stuff than before and I just pay for time in the shop… if I told you how cheap it was for me to machine the Lothar barrel I...
I had to really think about this comment because obviously you’re correct about the current state of slugs, but it made me think of your original proposal.
I’m not sure that a “plug and play” slug barrel/gun ect is really feasible. I say this because it’s not really a thing in the firearm...
… and part of my point is that this is exactly the kind of thing one would do with a brand new firearm too! Lol guys wanna act like it’s such a chore but that’s kinda just how rifles work…my buddy got a new rimfire for 22LR benchrest and this was his text to me yesterday:
I totally understand that. You’re exactly the kind of “successful” slug shooter that I reference in my comment. You understand exactly the work needed for a top level setup.
But also I argue that with the newer guns coming out it’s easy to find that 50-100yard setup. I’m gonna call out...
Slug tuning isn’t that hard y’all. I’ve been doing this for a year know and I’ve successfully slugged 3 different barrels.
I hate to be that guy but for most of y’all you’re not having success with slugs because you’re not doing the work.
I have found that most people get a new gun, run on...
So I wanna wade in on this haha. Having just slug tuned my 3rd barrel in the last year I consider myself a little bit of an expert here haha.
The truth is that you’re all right! I’ve had success with undersized, oversized and matching bore diameters.
Twist rate, barrel length and the base of...
My mom lives in West Point and she sent me some pics…. Haha it’s a hard pass for me. 5 years in the desert and my tolerance for cold and snow is minuscule… stay warm sir.
You can’t use “too much” lube in the reg. Any extra gets shot out of the gun/worked further along the internals of the gun. It’ll actually just help all the orings along the way.
