Methos Edition 6mm ARC FAL-15 Build

 

This is our latest creation for our good friend call-sign Methos. His requirements were to build a custom long-range rifle on our AR-15 platforms. Luckily an unnamed DOD unit had already made the same request and Hornady answered the call with the 6mm ARC (Advanced Rifle Cartridge).


This build features our custom 3.25 lbs trigger job with minimal pre-travel and a crisp clean break out of a stainless still trigger and hammer set. Polished to a mirror finish. We use stainless steel to prevent damage caused by removing the hardening coating on normal Mil-spec trigger and hammer sets.


Another unique feature is the stainless-steel tanker-style muzzle brake that looks similar to the Barret .50 cal rifles. This matches the barrel perfectly.

M1 Garand upgrades

  Another piece of history came through the shop: the semiautomatic rifle that won the war for US Gi’s during WWII. The Famous Springfield M1 Garand, which saw service from 1936 to 1957, was replaced by its big brother, the M14 (M1A). The M1 Garand is a .30 Cal (.30-06 Springfield, gas-operated, eight-round “clip” feed rifle, where the shooter places the clip into the internal “magazine”. Yes, it used a clip. Today, we have the luxury of using box feed magazines, which were one of the differences between its big brother, the M14(M1A) rifle. They changed the furniture, re-chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO, and added a 20-round box feed magazine. Interesting fact, the M1 Garand was also re-chambered to 7.62x51 and saw action early in the Korean conflict before being retired from service. A common injury from the M1 Garand is called “Garand-thumb”. This is where the shooter’s thumb gets smashed by the bolt slamming home during the loading process.  Thumb trapped by bolt. The painful ...

The Sig Sauer P320: A Crisis of Confidence?

****Updated****  Recent forensic developments regarding the July 2024 fatal shooting at F.E. Warren Air Force Base further substantiate my findings. While the incident was initially reported as an uncommanded discharge of an M18 (P320 variant), prompting a service-wide safety pause, investigations later revealed the narrative was falsified. Two airmen, Sarbjot Badesha and Matthew Rodriguez , have since pleaded guilty to making false official statements to cover up a case of gross negligence. Their testimony confirmed that the primary suspect intentionally pointed and fired the weapon in a 'joking manner,' rather than the firearm malfunctioning as initially claimed by 'Guntube' commentators. As a certified gunsmith, I have been unable to mechanically replicate the P320 failure points often cited online. ************** In light of the tragic death of an Airman at F.E. Warren Air Force Base and a growing list of accidental discharges involving the Sig Sauer P320 and its...
