Old Bridge Rifle & Pistol Club
I've been a member for about 6 months now @ OBRPC, the upfront cost is a decent chunk of change, but the facilities are worth the cost... What good is having a bunch of weapons, if you have no place to shoot them. Note: longest lane @ the outdoor range is 100yards, indoor range is 25 yards( i think )

Group buy for AR500 targets!
I agree with Harry, Looks like the circles produce lots of scrap. Offering Squares only will get you at least a few more targets out of the sheet, and lower cost per target.

Butler Creek 1022 .22 loader
factory 10/22 mags, which the product description says will work, as did the cust. service rep said will work. The problem is the bullets wont even fed into the ' red arm ' with the mag in, or out. it gets jammed up right before, and gets stuck. Here is a short video I did with my cell phone, you can see them line up, then the first one doesnt feed in, then when i tilt it back over it gets stuck in that spot, and i have to stick something in to push it out of there. melgamic, I tried preloaded one round, same issue - not working http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9FbbZuGwT0

Butler Creek 1022 .22 loader
I few weeks ago I ordered a Butler creek 1022 loader off amazon, when I got it I could not get the sucker to work, they simply will NOT load into the rotary mags I have, I even went and got on the line with the Customer service rep, he tried walking me through it, after a little bit - they sent me a brand new replacement at no cost.( +1 bushnell cust. service ) But, Today i revived my replacement, and it's doing the same exact thing. It will not load the bullet into the mag, it seems to get jammed up or something, the bullet will not fall in front of the spinning red arm that pushes it in the magazine. I've tried with CCI mini mags, and federal bulk, neither will feed. any tips, tricks, suggestions?

Is a CZ 455 American a good first rifle?
I dont know much about the CZ, But looking at your requirements ( 1-5 ) I personally think a Ruger 1022 would fit your bill, Yeh they are common and popular, but it's for good reason. You could prob. pick up a used ruger 1022 for cheap, use it as is, or put another few hundred bucks in to it ( upgrade stock/ barrel / trigger / scope ) and have a pretty good shooter. Out of all the guns I own, I prob spend the most time at the range sitting at 50-100 yards with my 1022 and have a blast with it. Good luck w/ your choice.

Steel Targets - Who's good?
Good Idea, I just saw John the other day when I picked up my Saiga from him, I'll be sure to send him an email to see what he has to offer. Any opinions on the 3/8 vs 1/2 AR500 debate?

Steel Targets - Who's good?
Im looking to pick up a few AR500 steel targets for the range, My heaviest calibers to date are 7.62x54r, and 7.62x39. Looking for recommendations of where to look into, and who is decently priced. So far, http://www.bigdogsteel.com , they have a AR500 1/2 -6" swinger at 99 bucks shipped that looks pretty fun, but looking for other suggestions as well. Thanks edit: Also, is 1/2 in worth the extra coin , or will 3/8 suffice? Like i said, 762x54r and .39 are my heaviest hitters, and I dont have access to anything past 100 yards. -alec

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
Lol, I knew that was coming , it's on order, but as a temp solution I was able to get the spring in and securely hold the axis pins in nice and solid. Just ran 200 rounds or so through it with zero malfunctions,... Though it does shoot about 2-3" low

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
all wrapped up, thanks for the tips and advice boys, looks much better with the new shoulder stock. Gonna head to the range to shoot her for the first time in the morning,... now, to replace that goofy front hand gaurd.

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
ahh, i see what your getting at here.... ie: this ' spring ' holds in the pin that holds my trigger in place right? ( learned this the hardway when that pin fell out ) edit, and i did not do this conversion... like i said, it was preconverted buy from classicarms.us oh well... live and learn

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
i know where it goes, the problem is with all the new modifcations inside with this ace internal block, i no longer have a point in which to hook it up.
-
Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
what is it that this spring in question actually does, the rifle seems to cycle fine and the trigger pull feels fine with it out, just curious to what this does. and i have even less room now that i put the pistol grip catch bolt back on into the reciver. i also had to grind it down a lil bit in order to fit in place inbetween the new block adapter. see pic:

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
Was able to drill them out with little/no damage. The one spring peice with a long extended straight peice that was connected to one of the rivits obviously fell out, and having a little trouble figuring out how this goes back in, the new internal block adapter is going to be in the way, im not sure how im going to get this to work ideas? internal block adapter in place.... how to get ( whatever this spring is ) to work with?

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
I'll give that a try, damn.. i wish i had a drill press at times like these... If i grind up the finish, normal flat black spray paint should match up no?

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
Meh, I feel grinding will just destroy the finish .

Removing Rivets on face of saiga ak
I picked up my saiga 762 a few hours ago, it was one of the pre - converted 922r ones from classic arms. I had already bought the ace skelestock and adapter, But im having some issues installing I already cut the tang off with my dremel, no problem there. but now I have these damn rivets on the side face of the reciver that need to come out in order for me to get the adapter into place, and put the screws in. next, the little " catch " inside the reciver that the pistol grip connects to is in the way, i figure I would just put it on top of the adapter when slide in, but its to wide to fit into that slot, any issues grinding the sides down on the little catch to squeeze in? next, on one of the rivets, front left side, there is a small spring catch connected to it that runs down the side into the trigger assembly, any advice? pics of what i mean
