I tell the dipsticks that mention firing pin filing that you have to take exactly .275" off the tip to get full auto. I figure that sounds more "scientific" and hence believable. I keep hoping to see the results at the range someday
Myths that are like fingernails on a chalkboard to me:
5.56x45 and .223 are the same thing, no difference at all.
Bushmaster and DPMS make M16s for the military.
Parts is parts, you're just paying for the name with Colt.
5.56 ammo was purposely designed to wound, not kill.
You don't need to stake a castle nut or carrier key, Locktite works just as well and is easier to do.
The Russians designed the AK47 so they could use our M16 ammo if they needed to, but we can't use their ammo. Last guy that told me that I told him that was even more impressive than he thinks since the AK47 was in regular production several years before the 5.56 cartridge was invented. He just nodded and agreed that the Russians are smarter than we think
I'll stop now before my blood pressure gets too high.
