Charging Handle - Bolt Retraction

Hello all, This site is amazing and has been so helpful. Soooo, another question: When the bolt is fully locked into the barrel extension, and when I try to pull on the charging handle, is the bolt supposed to be able to be retracted backwards, or does it stay locked until you fire it? Seems I have ...

Hi,

Does anyone have any plans or instructions/guidance on how and where exactly to drill through the original MG42/M53 bolt wedge so I can use the BRP firing pin? Thank you in advance!

Re: My second build

I dont think you can use a CCS receiver. After dealing with the one I bought being out of spec and slightly twisted. It would be easier to build one from scratch than use what they send you. Here's a pic from the rear of the receiver. It would make a good display gun receiver and thats about it. I ...

Re: 10 round belt.

Like the idea of keeping the belt length at 50 and doing the grind out so only 10 can be loaded in a row. Nice idea. Ok, question can you receive the belt and then grind it before anyone knows or ???? So happen to live in a state does not have those rules. And I/we don't have those problems. Later ...

Re: 10 round belt.

And a starter tab holds 3 rounds. Do they count that in a possible belt of ten rounds? I would hope not. Are you going to be shooting 8mm or 308? Later 42rocker Yeah that's a good question, but knowing this state they probably do count it so I guess 7 would be fine unless I open the top cover and p...
