Re: ATF changes their minds, Sig Brace.

ATF's open letters site does not list this letter??? Maybe a ruse?

Another story regarding the SIG15. Coming out of Kommifornia where most LEO's probably don't understand all of the BS gun laws out there.

Re: FNH FNG FSN.

I have come over here a few times to find some FSN specific information. Decided it was time to become a member. I just got into 5.7X28 recently and I really enjoy it so far. The ammo prices are a bit steep but for what it is I am not mad. I was thinking about sending my FSN for accurizing services...

Re: FS 2000 Trigger Pull

Has anyone been successful in taking out the trigger bar without splitting the cases? In the FN Manual it states to break down the weapon take the bar out of the trigger, remove the trigger then cross the bars in the rear and pull out. I have tried this numerous times but each time the rod gets stuck.

A low charge of that powder would not have made enough pressure to blow the case even unsupported let alone damage the slide. From testing during development all that happened was a misfeed from the case not expanding and gripping the chamber. Again, I am not an expert with guns but getting more kn...
