These are finally available again. Let us know if you are interested!! If you own an older model Glock, you are limited in the area of weapons mounted lights. While you may be down, you are certainly not out. If your Glock doesn’t have a light rail, now you can get one added. This is a great option, and it is so much better than having a light attached to your magazine which is definitely not going to win you any style points. The rail...
MCC Glock Carry Package
This week I finished a Glock 19 with the MCC Carry Package plus the MCC Extended Kit. Through the years this has been our most popular work for the Glock. We still find after all these years that the Glock 19 is our favorite model. The size is just perfect for about anything that you might get into. For CCW, it offers the best compromise of any of the Glocks, and the 9mm has improved in defensive loads so that it really doesn’t give...
Cost vs Value
I was talking with a customer the other day about cost vs. value in gunsmithing. We were trying to determine whether or not he should add a sight to a S&W 442. This particular gun did not have a pinned front sight. The sight ramp was integral to the barrel. Normally installing the Big Dot sights is $100 including the sights. However, if you have to mill them, the cost goes to $150. Because it was a 442 (blued gun) we now have to...
Squib Loads
I was testing a Taurus Judge recently when I had my first ever squib load. The range I was using is an indoor range so it made me second guess myself whether it was a squib or not. It was so loud in the range I wasn’t sure if I had a light primer strike (failure to fire) or if it was a squib load. Luckily I followed training protocol and held the gun on target for about 30 seconds to ensure I didn’t have a hangfire. I then opened...
Ruger 10/22 Takedown Project
We recently had the opportunity to do something that we normally don’t get to do in the shop with a Ruger 10/22 Takedown. For those of you who are not familiar with this gun, you really need to check it out. The gun breaks down quickly with the throw of a lever in the forend. The uses of this gun are virtually limitless. LEO applications are countless for those wanting something very quiet. Civilians will...
Sevigny Competition Sights
Just finished up a Glock 34 for that will be a competition gun for IDPA. The customer and I decided to add a set of Dave Sevigny Competition Sights to the gun. These sights are made by Warren Tactical and feature a plain black rear sight with a fiber optic front sight. The sight comes with a red and a green tube for you to choose. We settled on the red tube, and I think this suits my eyes better. Internally we did a competition trigger job...
