I'm looking for a winchester sx3 shotgun with wood not plastic. 12 gauge.

Wasn't used much. See pics.

Rare colt law enforcement only / military only. NOS. $100 each.

I bought this many years ago and had Joe ramp the bolt. I had this on my M16 and run 400 or so rounds thru it. When I purchased it appeared to be unused or hadn't been shot much. The charging handle may not be the original since the parkerizing doesn't appear to match, Comes with items shown. $2500 looks like what one has sold close to that. I can get you better pics thru my phone & text to you.

Yes, and thanks', I passed on that.

I'm going to add that the seller is asking $300 for each 200 round can, I'm not to sure that that's about right in today's market .

couldn't post on ammunition forum, not sure why, But I've come across some 1993 Portugese surplus belted 308 in sealed cans, I have no idea what a fair price is to pay for this stuff. I'm not selling, I'm buying for my own use. value ??

Yes, That may have been the original spring for that colt made in the 70's. I ordered a Geissele spring kit with H2 buffer for that one. we'll see how that goes. My other carbine has a colt mfg. H2 buffer in it but an aftermarket spring. I'd like to upgrade that spring without having to replace my colt buffer which is what I had to do with the Geissele upgrade. any recommendations appreciated.

UPDATE, cleaning the colt xm177 and decided to measure the recoil spring. It was only 8 inches long. Because it was broke and the other 3 inches was still inside the tube ! It fired fine all day but didn't have the strength to strip that first round from the mag .

Me and another guy ran close to 800 rds thru this pair of shorty 16's today. No overheating since we took plenty of breaks although the hand guards heated up a few times. A fun time shooting down into a creek with steep banks for a good backstop, Throw something in the water and shoot an inch below it and launch it 50 feet in the air, then when it lands we both opened up on it. lot"s of fun ! Both guns on occasion would not strip the first round out of the mag when using the bolt latch, you had to use the charging handle & pull the bolt all the way back and let it fly and even then it wouldn't chamber some time. Using a variety of steel Mil spec 30 round mags with 28 rounds in each one. One gun has the M4 feed ramps , the other doesn't. My guess is that 28 rounds in a 30 round mag is just to tight. wondering what thought's are ??

sounds good, I don't think we'll be overdoing it without taking a few breaks. Thank's guys !

Talking standard gas operated M16, is dumping a 30 round mag non stop hurting anything ?? I'm sure doing it multiple times will overheat something or melt the gas tube, wondering where that line is where you start damaging the gun ???

Hey guys, I've got a ruger 22/45 MKIII suppressed pistol by s&h arms. If any of you own these you know what a pain it is to take the gun apart and reassemble. I'm not talking about the suppressor but rather the ruger pistol itself. I know there are some upgrades available to simplify things. If anyone is a guru on these I'd like to hear from you so I can start shooting this again without dreading the disassembly / assembly. Paul.

GOT IT ! thanks.
