    Do you use an iPad in the cockpit? Would you?

    I think the most recent NSAWC journal has a nice piece on it. If you can get your hands on one... you know why.

    Scariest Day/Night Flying

    1st night trap in the fleet. 2 weeks out of the RAG. Overcast @ 700, pitching deck, dutch roll, MOVLAS. "Deck's up don't chase it" "Power back on". No Count 1. Ouch. Some hinges went around a couple of times that night. I got aboard. And after getting a few more pitching deck traps while I...

    COST OF TRAINING Naval Aviators?

    to put in perspective... my squadron burns ~$200k of gas in the FUEL PITS per month. once you get into gray (insert platform here), the costs go up considerably. these are old fleet birds and the cost to maintain is astronomical when compared to new t-45's or very simple things like t-34's and...

    project 2k in el cajon has 100y indoor range. i can shoot at american shooting center so long as I don't use my 100 rds of Wolf ammo. it's cheap but it's got steel and their barriers don't like that.

    Problem with new AR build.

    eerily similar to what I have, Made by the offbrand "Guntec USA". Crosshairs with 200 and 300 elevation markings. Not bad. I figure this will be my plinker rifle and get a nice one for 100+ yard stuff. There's a nice 100 yard indoor place very close by. Cheap too.

    Problem with new AR build.

    you can buy complete rifles @ gunshows.. they just dissassemble them for sale, and you build them up when you take them home. again, to stay legal AND keep the pistol grip/flash suppressor/retractable stock you have to have a "fixed mag" and don't go over a 10 round mag. even the 30 round...

    Problem with new AR build.

    after two failures to extract spent rounds, this was why i had to leave the range. the melting was clearly seen on the two rounds that got "stuck". And I didn't bring the barrel snake with me hence ending an otherwise good day. And the ammonia type smell after every discharge didn't help either.

    Problem with new AR build.

    I used the Prince50 allen key type screw for the release button. At the local range they are more lenient and didn't say a word when I accidentally "dropped" my 10 round mag and started loading 30's. They let me shoot the Wolf too. Now even closer is another indoor place that won't let me use...

    Problem with new AR build.

    Noted. No assumption of common sense. If it's new, it's probably tight. Run some rounds... analyze. Post problem, get probable cause/work through problem. The ammo I got was shit. Plain and simple. But it WAS less than $0.20/round.

    Problem with new AR build.

    I went out and shot a few hundred rounds of some Wolf crap. I would have shot more but alas the ammo was so bad it was gumming up the chamber and wouldn't extract. After a thorough cleaning, the action is smoother, but still not 100%. I guess it just needs to wear. (I'm in Kalifornia, no 30...

    Problem with new AR build.

    I'm thinking it's a function of break in as well. I wanted to run it by the gurus to be on the safe side. Pulling the handle all the way back and letting it go, it moves just fine. Not totally fluid but it gets there with enough energy to chamber a round. Maybe 1 in 10 times that I pull it back...

    Problem with new AR build.

    Finally put the deal together. Stag lower/Stag 3H upper, generic 4 pos stock, knockoff trijicon acog sight. Here's the rub. When pulling the charging handle back, the bolt seems to encounter a decent amount of friction. For instance when I pull the handle back about halfway and let it go the...
