Hello blogger. . Can you help me get the CAD drawing of the bond arm? Or 3D printing drawings. I'll buy one from you. Thank you so much. I am in China.
Does anyone have cad drawings?
Hola

How tight should the extractor screw be? How far should the extractor screw be comoressed?
This video is about the Best One on UA-cam on taking the Glock apart! Thanks for posting it !
Лучшее описание, однозначно, и ни чего лишнего.
Great video 👍
Due to last motion of hammer being Inertial reducing the main spring by much at all probably hinders good primer strikes on most brands...federal is softest if I'm not mistaken. Going to experiment with different springs if available. Polishing the plunger and guide on mine currently.
Is it possible to lighten the trigger pull on this weapon?
Very good and though video
Nicely done! Can't wait to get my AGI curriculum on Thursday! What kind of aftermarket sights are those?
For those of us who do not have a gunsmith available to us this is great ! Thank you .
Is there a part 2?
You mention the center to center distance of the bases as 7.200 inches. everything I've read including the instructions says 7.250 inches Did you mis-speak or are the instructions wrong?
🙂 AWESOME !!
Amazing worksmanship. Gut gemacht.
The video long 😔
We like to be detailed and specific!
@41:45 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad you enjoyed it!
Don't you use the metric system? They don't even teach using the imperial system anymore. I graduated 40yrs ago and everything was metric. The company I worked for, designing computer hardware, it was all 3D and metric. Also, you repeat yourself way to much.
I guess Im old school! Im sorry you felt I repeated myself too much, others appreciate the repetition to grasp the key points. To be fair, please bear in mind we're making this content available to you at no charge!
Why didn’t you just scallop the handguard like the originals so it’d be clone correct
On a drill press?????? NO!
Why do you say that?
it can be done
how many shot got edited out because you smacked your thumb?
😂
I have a cz 550 in 375h&h mag. It is extremely accurate 1.3cm group at a hundred yards. However the stock had to be worked upon to achieve a free floating barrel and it had to be fitted to my exact specifications. The hair trigger was deactivated and a 2.5 lbs trigger pull was set by the gun smith. After these slight modifications it shot the tight groups with Barnes 300 grain lead free ammunition and with 270 grain federal power shock. Alaska all steel mounts for the CZ550 are excellent. No problems with the cz type mounts. I use a Steiner Ranger 1-4x24 scope with a truly 1x magnification so as to shoot with both eyes open. I highly recommend fitting the stock length and re-working the bedding of the barrel ; it will make an already very fine weapon into an outstanding one. Isn’t that cheap trigger made of Aluminium? That was the only real weakness I noticed with the CZ .
Thanks so much for sharing!
Great video presentation here. I have a question and it looks like you guys are the best resource here on utube for the answer. It’s a two part question: is this rifle suited for upper conversion to 300 aac blackout? If so, what manufacturers uppers do you recommend? What effect will this have on gas system.? I am assuming it will fire as a DI since Ruger doesn’t mftr a gas piston 300 upper? Thanks for any advice.
Outstanding video. Allowed me to get mine back together and working correctly! Thank you!!! Great video.
Thank you for watching, we appreciate your kind words!
I'm just going to get the DVD for knowledge on hands thank you.
We're working on making the full trainings available online, too.
Is it true that when you lock the magazine and shoot you cant get it of until you shoot the whole magazine empty??????
"nitrogen filled" "to install spring remove eyepiece"
Which website is the right one? One has the whole course in 3 versions. Another one lists your dvds as individually sold.
AmericanGunsmith.com is where you can get this individual course as well as all the other gun or topic specific courses. That's where you would find this course. AmericanGunsmithinginstitute.net is where you can find our Professional Gunsmith training course that teach you gunsmithing at a professional level over all the different types of firearms and catagories.
The Gevarm does have a safety. Pull the charging handle back further than the sear, and push it into the safety notch. This locks the bolt in place so a trigger squeeze won't fire the rifle.
Thanks for sharing this.
I enjoy your show.
Thank you for watching!
The parts I’ve gotten from numrich have work great so far.
Great to hear that
Lube it.
Yes!
Saludos cordiales desde México shalom me gustaría saber de la Jericho
I wonder if there is somewhere you can legally go and use weapons like this in the UK.....YOU YANKS CAN DO ALL SORTS LIKE THIS , WE CANT LOL.....In the right hands it looks fun.
Im not sure about the UK, come and visit us in the States!
You jumped ahead. Should there be a clip on both sides of the trigger pin tube? thanks
Yes, thanks for pointing that out
The Gevarm does have a safety mechanism. Read comments and replies below.
Thanks
I imagine if the sterling had a top mounted pan magazine just like Lewis gun but bullpup just like the sa80
is he not carrying with a round in the chamber because its a browning hi-power
God Bless the IDF!!!
Could you wrap the stock were you cut in masking tape to make sure the finish wont chip?
Any American trainer, or police trainer will tell you to have a loaded chamber. If that gun fails to feed under the stress and surprise of an actual life or death situation, you're toast...pure and simple.
Thanks for sharing
Mr. Bob, I have a Remington 1100 3 in. mag with a 30 in. full choke, I've had the shotgun for about 15-20 years. Would it be safe to shoot steel shot out of it?
good
Thanks for watching this
Great information! and work!
Thank you
THank you for sharing this video. I use a G17 concealed, and not comfortable with it chambered around family. So this offers a reasonable alternative.
Thanks for watching!
