I just finished my third run of DUST. I believe I should share some of the knowledge I have gained with the community. The two best perks in DUST are:

1. Jury rigging:

It has a high repair requirement of a 100, but it allows you to repair anything with a roughly similar item. Why is this amazing? First, The spread of a gun is tied to it's condition in DUST. At full condition, most guns perform amazingly well. You can fire as many junk rounds as you want. Second, it makes it easy to repair good rare guns like marksman carbine which is pretty much an endgame gun that you can find in first tribal village north of good springs. Third, Armor. I can't stress this enough. Being able to keep your Vault Security Armor (best light Armor) or Elite riot gear (medium) with any light or medium armor means your Armor is always in the top condition. Most tribals wear light armor, most NCR medium. You never need to make a single weapon repair kit.

1. Roughin' it:

Similar high survival requirement of 100, but there are no owned beds in DUST, this perks allows you to sleep in any bed as if it's an owned bed, essentially giveing you 3 boosts. One, it heals your health by sleeping. (Yes, even in hardcore). Two, it heals crippled limbs for free!! And 3. Well rested bonus. Since there are no doctors in the game, crippled limbs are a major pain. Even splints improve their health by a very tiny amount. Beds are plentiful in FNV, almost every camp has one. You can even carry your own bedroll kit if you so need, but I personally never carried one.
Bonus perks that go well with these two.

1. Irradiated beauty:

Rads are a pain. Micromanaging food and drinks and worry about rads is a pain. Every hour of sleep removes 100 rads with this perks. This goes hand in hand with Roughin it, as sleep brings even more benefits now. Remember to sleep in 1 hour intervals.

1. Hand loader:

You'll be taking repair to max anyway, might as well take this. With marksman carbine as my go-to weapon, I need 5.56 ammo. Every other rifle round i find gets broken down at a workbench. I get plenty of powder and rifle primer that way. The liming factor is 5.56 casings. Hand loader allows me to pretty much recover all casings i fire, allowing me to basically recycle ammo. Bonus Bonus tip, the 5mm and 5.56 mm surplus ammo that the vendertron sells can be broken down, (Unlike normal junk rounds) allowing for close to 1500 bullets of 5.56 after that trip, which is enough for the endgame.
General strategy: level 2, guns 50 rest into repair. Level 6, repair 100, jury rigging. Level 12, survival 100, roughin' it. Use tag, skilled and Max intelligence as needed.

About a month ago I bought my first marker. It is a Tippmann Pro Carbine, I have no idea how old it is, likely late 90s early 2000s. I ended up having to buy several missing pieces for it. A barrel, hopper and HPA cylinder. I also bought a hand pump for the cylinder. (I didn’t get a Hill as someone suggested as I can’t really afford it right now. I got a Vevor instead.) I assembled the pump yesterday and partially filled the tank. (2500 psi about half capacity.) Here’s the problem. When I pulled the trigger it went full automatic and emptied the hopper. Unfortunately, it didn’t stop when I let go of the trigger, only when the tank got below 1000 psi. The seller did say that it would do that but they didn’t have any idea how to fix it. Does anyone know what’s wrong? And if so how can it be fixed?

For some context, a tech-priest has discovered a Genestealer Cult on a Mechanicus world and has decided to use them for his own ends. He tells them that he will wipe them out unless they perform an uprising during the national "Ascension Day" celebrations, where he will use the chaos they create to seize power for himself.
The Magus of the cult Claress is old and decrepit, she feels that they missed the time they were actually meant to rise up decades ago and the cult has atrophied since then. Worse, after a series of failed raids their best fighters were killed or imprisoned. She knows they have no chance against the crack Mechanicus troops who have pressed the world for generations but facing no other option the Cult begins its preparations and sends messages to the uncorrupted workers unions and factories that have pledged their support if an uprising against the Mechanicus happens (not knowing that they're dealing with a cult).
I like this section as while it falls into the modern 40k novel habit of listing a bunch of codex units and describing how they fight, I think that it does a good job of portraying the awkward beginnings of an uprising, where nobody actually knows what will happen that spirals into the Genestealer Cult suddenly realising that if they work together they might have a chance.

‘This is the end of us,’ she hissed. ‘The priest will use us, and then he will destroy us. Or imprison us in his jars and make us his experiments. All our ways, our traditions, our faith. He will melt it out of us. There will be nothing left but his science.’
‘Child…’ Claress repeated.
‘We should flee,’ Davien almost shouted at her. ‘All of us, each to a different hole. We should abandon this city. We should carry our words and our blood to other places. We’re finished here! I’m sorry, magus, I’m sorry.’ And she was simultaneously weeping and incandescent with rage. At herself, at Triskellian, at Claress. ‘I have ruined us! I’m a traitor. Punish me, magus. Destroy me.’
‘You have listened to the lies of the enemy, it is true,’ Claress said softly. Her hand fell on Davien’s shoulder, a husk of a thing, no weight to it. ‘And you may be punished in time, that is also true. But for now, you are one of us, and you must play your part in what is to come.’
‘But it’s a sham!’ Davien exclaimed. ‘It’s some Taskmaster plan, some infighting between them. It isn’t the time!’ Struck by a sudden hope, she searched the old woman’s face. ‘Is it? Is all this… the Emperor’s plan for us? Can it be?’ And before she could hear any empty comforts, she rushed on. ‘Tell me truly, magus. Please tell me.’
The sad calm on Claress’ face was heartbreaking. ‘I don’t know, child. I wish I could give you all the grand certainties in the world. I wish I could give you the words of fire and faith I’d speak in the chapel, of the Many-Handed Emperor and His angels. But that is what faith is for, Davien.’ She sagged, sinking in on herself a little more. ‘Take me to my chamber. I must rest before tomorrow.’
‘You can’t take to the streets, magus. Not you.’
‘I must. We all shall play our part. We shall triumph together, or we shall fall. I do not want to be left alone if my kin are taken from me.’
Davien led her deeper into the maze of cellars. All around, the Congregation were in a frenzy of preparation. The building was haemorrhaging the faithful as they rushed out to carry the magus’ words across all the poor districts of the city. Out there, all Davien’s distant kin would be arming themselves. And the others, all those who weren’t blood but who had suffered beneath the crushing iron boot of the tech-priests, they’d be gathering too. All of them cast against the iron walls of the Hollow Men.
When she had Claress back to the old woman’s bed, she helped her lie down, hearing joints click and crack. The magus lay there, staring at the low ceiling, then shifted her head to look at the painting of the Emperor on the far wall. It was flaking now, half-obscured with grime. A depiction from the time of the Great-Aunts and Uncles, when the blood of the Emperor was stronger in them, so that none of the Congregation could show their faces for fear of being known for what they were. A figure with four arms: two human hands and two with radiant claws like crescent moons. An elliptical head split by a great benevolent smile that was all teeth. The eyes were beatific, murderous, inhuman. Davien had stared at the image often, feeling out its contradictions, letting them speak to the human and the inhuman within her. It frightened her; it inspired her.
‘I hear them singing to me.’ Claress’ dry voice rose to her. ‘The angels. They throng the cold void. And I sing back. I tell them, We are here. We are faithful. We’re waiting for you. And their great wings carry them across the freezing spaces, through the perilous labyrinth of the warp. They are coming, Davien. They tell me, We hear you. We come for you. Only have faith, and you shall become part of us. The Blessed Union, child. Our destiny.’ She laughed softly, coughed, shuddering with each dry convulsion. ‘They came from the stars, our ancestors. The first on Morod to bear our blood was an angel’s child, and so we are children of angels. But weaker, each generation. I lack the strength of the Aunts, the might of the Great-Aunts. I am too human to be truly strong. But I hear them, Davien. They are so beautiful. There is nothing on this ugly world to compare to them. I need to see them with my own eyes, before I grow too old.’
And Davien, one of the diminished survivors of a younger generation still, thought about how thin her own blood was, how little of the angel remained. ‘Do you think the priests’ Ascension Day will be our ascension too? Or will all our blood just end up on the streets and in that priest’s laboratory?’
Claress’ yellow gaze switched to her. ‘Faith is all that we have, when the machinery of this world comes to crush us. I hear the angels. They come to us, but space is vast and the warp is a trickster. All we can do is believe that the Many-Handed Emperor will not abandon His faithful in their time of need. That He is a true divinity, beyond the enthroned corpse the machine-priests worship. Our god lives, Davien. Our god is life, life in all its many forms and guises. Theirs is dust and ancient mechanisms. We must prevail, or we give the universe over to entropy and death. Only by our truths can life eternal survive and spread throughout the cosmos. Do you understand me, child? Do you have faith?’
And Davien thought, We are going to die tomorrow, on the streets and in their arena. This is not the true uprising we were promised, it is some priest’s gambit. But she couldn’t hold to those thoughts against the old woman’s rustle of a voice. It got under her skin. It spoke to all those services in the buried chapel. It spoke to her blood.
Easy to have faith when you were strong, after all. And what was the value of it, then? But they stood under the steel hammer of the tech-priests, and they would rise up nonetheless. Let Triskellian think it was all to his plan. The Congregation would rise because it was their time. Who said that he was using them? And even though, intellectually, she knew the truth, she still felt that fire in her, that burned away all doubt.
‘I believe, magus,’ she said fiercely. ‘Tell me what I must do.’
The next dawn, even as the tech-priests were attending their early Ascension Day devotions, the streets of the South Chasm districts erupted into armed uprising.
Davien saw it from the rooftops, crossing from building to building by the gantries, bridges and ropes that the skitarii periodically brought down but the locals always strung up again. All night the Congregation’s messengers had been running like sparks through the poorer districts of the city, seeing which claves would catch their fires. All of the true faithful rose up without question, of course. Right now she could only see the more inarguably human of them, those marked only by a pallidity of skin, patches of chitinous scales, unblinking yellow eyes perhaps. No unusual traits on as poisonous a world as this. Behind and within the walls of the tenements, though, the older generations of the god-touched would be stirring; would be eager. They had waited all their long lives, after all. They had hidden away as their younger offspring had busied themselves in the world, unable to show their distorted faces. They had known only the burning fire of their faith, and now that faith told them, Rise!
The streets were thronging with people, just ordinary people. And yet, not ordinary, for in many of those bodies a few drops of divine blood ran. But they were not the superhuman figures of Imperial myth. Not the Adeptus Astartes that had been made into little gods; not the tech-priests, elevated by machinery until they had forgotten what it was like to have two living feet on the ground. People, with nothing but their faith, and what tools and weapons they could scavenge or make themselves. And today they would attempt to wrest control of their destiny from those who had ordered and limited their whole lives.
And they would die, she knew. Heavy-hearted she watched them muster, factorum workers clapping each other on the shoulder, hard greetings called across the crowd. There were banners there, and some were of the Many-Handed Emperor Scattering His Angels Upon the Faithful, but there were others, too. Crude standards celebrating this ward or that factorum, this mining crew, even one for the staff of a workers’ refectory. There was an air of festival, just as if they were celebrating the damned Ascension Day after all.
And then the first skitarii came into sight. Davien knew she should be away by now, off on the errand that Claress had given her, but she couldn’t. She had to see if the whole venture would collapse into tragedy.
A wedge of red-clad cybernetic soldiers ordered itself precisely across the street ahead of the gathering mob. Behind them, a pair of dragoons stalked in, towering over the soldiers’ heads. Their riders couched forked lances snapping with sparks, even as the servitor beneath them, merged with the workings of the machine, directed the Ironstrider’s jerky motions. The crowd stilled, seeing all those carbines levelled at them, knowing more would be on the way.
The skitarii alpha called out, voice amplified until it rattled Davien’s skull like thunder. ‘By the order of the Fabricator General, you are required to disperse. There will be no second warning.’
And Claress stepped forwards from the ranks of the crowd, standing ahead of them, raising her staff. Somehow her high, clear voice carried even to Davien. ‘Faith and freedom! Faith for the true Emperor’s blood! Freedom from the yoke!’
The skitarii opened fire.
Davien screamed when they did it, curled away from the blaze and heat of it, knowing this was surely the end even as the uprising began. But in the echo of the shots she dared look, and saw Claress somehow untouched, standing with bodies to her left and right, the faithful who had put themselves in harm’s way. And not so many bodies, even, not compared to the vast mass of humanity that was packing the street. Angry humanity, crammed with grievances.
Claress’ voice called out again, and now she was sounding the charge. Davien saw members of the Congregation break into a run on either side of her, funnelling through the streets in a great rush, wielding hammers and prybars and power-cutters, emptying their shotguns and automatics into the skitarii wedge. The dragoons were in motion instantly, striding over the heads of their human-sized allies, accelerating into a counter-charge with lances lowered. Davien saw the first connect, its huge iron feet sending insurgents flying even as the lance swept an arc through the crowd, charring and burning. Then an eye-rending beam of light seared into it. One of the mining crews had a rock laser set up on the rooftop across from Davien and they drew lines of molten steel across the dragoon’s chassis before striking something vital.
In an instant the walking machine flashed incandescently and exploded, laying waste to the nearest fighters in a horrible toll of shrapnel and shredded flesh. For everyone left standing, though, that was the signal to rush forwards. Moments later the skitarii were giving ground, shooting and falling back. Or just falling, dragged down by the crowd who saw them as nothing more than the tools of their oppressors.
And then Davien was off, roof to roof, eyes open for when the tech-priests’ more subtle instruments decided the higher reaches were their territory. There would be rangers up here sniping down at the crowd soon enough. There would be the murderous rust-stalkers trying to flank the Congregation to bring down its leaders with their blades and claws. She had to be ahead of all of that. She had work to do, a task entrusted to her by the magus herself.
She shadowed the forerunners of the mob until they exploded out before Nilhetum Square, where the rail depot was. More of the Palatium’s troops were disembarking even as everyone arrived, hurriedly evacuating the train and taking up position to defend it. And if the Congregation wished to reach the Palatium, they needed to control the train line, and they needed to take it swiftly before the tech-priests began destroying their own infrastructure to deny it to the rebels.
There were more than just skitarii out there. She saw the low, trundling shapes of Kataphron servitors grinding down ramps from flatbed carriages, armoured human head, torso and arms set into a mechanised assault vehicle that was also their lower body. Davien felt a flare of rage at the tech-priests and their meddling. They took the divine flesh and carved it and pared it down, merged it with their devices. Nothing could be left alone. Nothing had any value until it was incorporated into their machines. And, on a grander scale, no individual lives had worth unless they were components of the wider priestly engine that spanned the human universe and enslaved everything it touched to their cold metal vision.
The Kataphron were terrors, nigh invulnerable to the weapons the foot-soldiers of the Congregation had brought, but by now the rioters had been given the chance to bring in their own big guns. With a choking roar and a belch of smoke one of the big quarry trucks raced out of a side street, already up to its lumbering top speed. It was a heavily armoured Goliath model, its entire front given over to rock-grinding blades that would chew hungrily on skitarii machine-flesh or the armour of the Kataphron. And, in its wake, a flurry of robed figures bearing a banner showing that familiar many-armed figure. The Aunts and the Uncles had come out from their cellars and holes, from their forgotten wall-spaces where they had waited for generations. Even as the Goliath powered forwards, meeting the lead Kataphron head-on and making a jagged mess of its armour, the elders were leaping around and over it, brandishing knives, pistols, or just their own hooked talons. And there was more. Davien felt a voice in her head, then. A singing so pure and beautiful that she thought it must be the angels, come at last. All the Congregation must have heard it, from the way they redoubled their pace and closed joyously with the skitarii and the machines.
A great figure, head and shoulders over the rank and file, had come into the square – a Great-Aunt, one of the true elders, shrouded in streamers and rags of cloth that could not hide the divinity of her form. She sang, and the Congregation echoed her, voices upraised in prayer and praise. In one of her three hands was a banner, not the crude handmade things the crowd had spent last night creating but something ancient, preserved for this day over generations. It showed not the expected Imperial visage, but an emblem with that same long-jawed head and a trailing cog-backed body; a serpentine shape curled in upon itself, one end a hooked claw, the other hungering jaws ready to devour the tech-priests and all their works.
The skitarii turned their weapons on her, blasting away, but the banner had electrified the Congregation so that they were swarming the lines, clambering over the Kataphron, braving the massed fire of their foes. Davien saw explosives go off, mining charges devastating bodies on both sides. She saw brutal knots of knife-work and bayonets and the bludgeoning butts of carbines, no quarter given.

January 2nd. 2024.
It's been about a year since the incident happened. I've been in therapy for as long as I can remember after that horrible night. I got a prosthetic for my left leg, and was able to walk somewhat normally again shortly after. I haven't told anyone about that horrible night, not even my family. My friends, who were there at the start of all of this visited me every day while I was in the hospital, begging me to tell them what happened, but I lied, and told them I didn't remember anything. Little did they know, I not only crystal clearly remember what happend, I also knew what I was going to do as soon as I could walk normally again.
February 27th. 2024.
I could finally walk on my own again, and when I got released from the hospital, I immediately knew what I had to do. I rushed home and started planning. This time, I would plan it out, not just run in there and take my chance. I began planning the following day.
March 9th. 2024.
I've collected all my ideas, and decided that the hunt would be on March 15th. However, I knew I couldn't do this alone, seeing as what happend last time, so I decided to call my uncle, who is an ex-marine, and knows all the camoflauge techniques that a civilian does not. Lucky for my, he belives in all kinds of folklore, mainly native american ones, so he was down to help me. Hes the only person I told this story to, since I know I could trust him with my life. In the following days, he tought me all differnet kinds of techniques like camouflage in "plain sight" and the hand signals used in the marine corps. Only one thing remained, the weapons. Since the police confiscated all of my weapons after the last incident, I had nothing, but my uncle told me not to worry about it.
March 15th. 2024.
The day was here. The meetup was schedueld to 11pm, but I was already at the place where we said we'd meet up, even though it was 10 minutes earlier. When all of a sudden I heard that scream... That same blood curdling scream I heard way back. But I wasn't scared anymore. Shortly after my uncle shows up with full marine corps camouflage uniforms and plate carriers, along with two M4 Carbines loaded up with holographic sights, lasers, flashlights and all the above. He also brought an old winchester Model 1873, which he told me only to use if I'm certain that I'm about to shoot at the entity in question. He said because it was loaded with white ash tree rubbed bullets. He started saying something else too, but was cut off by that same horrible scream, so we quickly dressed up, and made our way into the woods.
March 15th. 2024. 11:10pm
We entered the forest with adrenalyn pumping in our bodies and quickly took position in an abandoned cabin a few hundred feet into the woods. we quickly shut the door behind us and began discussing the next hours.
11:30pm.
We were still discussing when we heard a knocking sound coming from the door. I shouted out "Who the hell is it?! What do you want?!" But it just kept knocking. My uncle knows morse code, and he translated that it said, "Your Blood" over and over again. Then it just stopped. Like the source of the noise just simply dissapeared. And after a few moments of eerie silence, a window broke in the room next to the on we were in, and something was running towards the door. My uncle instantly yelled, "Take cover!", so that's what I did. I ducked and heard his M4 go off on fully automatic. He popped off 20 rounds at the door and very likely hit something, since the anomaly let out a huge scream. My uncle grabbed me by my arm and pulled me up. Then we jumped out the window and took off running.
11:35pm.
We ran for about a mile when we deemed it safe to stop for a drink. When I sudenly noticed that the old Winchester my uncle gave me was missing, so I informed him immediately. He turned to me with a huge smile on his face. Then it hit me... I didn't have an uncle... The damn thing implanted itself in my memory.. A moment of sheer panic later it pulled out the gun and shot my prosthetic and I fell to the ground. I quickly reached for my M4 and let out a burst of fire towards it. I scored a hit to its thigh, and so it ran away.
12:00am.
I collected my thoughts, and somehow managed to get up. I realized I needed to get out of there as soon as possible. Only one problem, I had no idea of where the way out was. So I just started walking in a random direction. I lost track of time after this, since my watch had been ruined. After what felt like forever, I saw a light in the distance. As I got closer to it, I realized it was a huge bonfire, surrounded by a ton of theese entities. They were just standing there, it was almost mesmerizing in a way, how they stood perfectly still around the fire, but I knew I had to focus. I realized that I had a flare gun in my pocket, so I pulled it out and shot it up. This caused all of them to look at me, then dissapear. The fire went out and the flare was the only source of light in the entire forest. Then I heard something running towards me from the back.
12:00am+
I turned and saw one of theese things in all it's "glory" sprinting towards me on all fours. I shot all my bullets at it, which somehow caused it to drop dead. As I went closer to examine it, I was disgusted by the smell of it, it was like rotten flesh. I looked at the carcass and saw a huge pentagram on its back. So I backed off and started praying. I may be crazy, but I heard a voice say to me, "Go 88 steps forward, then 6 left". So I did just that, and saw a white ash tree, and I instantly knew what to do. I grabbed 30 bullets and rubbed every single one of them on the tree. Then something snapped inside me, I yelled up "Come and get me!" at the top of my lungs. And right away, several creatures started rushing towards me. 5 shots, 5 dead entities. But then I saw IT... The thing that started all of this. It wanted me dead. Then suddenly the flare died out. I quickly turned on my laser and flashlight, and the final battle had begun.
About 12:30am.
The entity took the form of my so called "uncle", and quickly ran in a bush. But I wasn't ready to let it slip away again. So I shot about 10 rounds into the bush, and it ran out of it. I took my chance, and with my remaining bullets, I shot it. It dropped and screamed in agony. I went up to it, and realized it had dropped that old Winchester, so I picked it up, and put a bullet in it's skull. And with that it was all over. At least I thought.
March 16th. 2024.
After I got home, I dropped, and fell asleep. When I woke up I decided that the best thing to do was go to church, since those things were most likely demonic. As soon as I entered the church the priest saw me, and fainted. I had to call an abulance for him. I heard he died later that day. The same day, I found out my entire family was killed in a horrible car accident. And so I realzed I had been cursed for life. Anyone who was considered my loved one had died in the following weeks, only I had remained. So in the end, I got revenge for my friend, but was it worth it?

Hey all, looking for a new condition (or very lightly used) Black MOE SL carbine handguard. I believe they normally go for around $35, so I’d be willing to pay either $35 shipped for a new one or a little less if it’s used (depends on its condition).
*By new I mean has been opened but otherwise unused or is just unopened

Hear me out. Sniper would be underpowered in most other games, but this isn't most other games, so I'm going to focus mainly on tf2. Sniper is underpowered because:

1. It isn't his fault the maps are generally open and long. (Turbine is great to counter snipers in this aspect.) he takes advantage of the open maps, but even then, a decent sniper can hardly kill a competent scout at medium range. ( medium range being approx. 2623 hu, or 50 m.)the reason 2fort is so bad about sniper is that there are only 4 exits that are easily covered by snipers, and the 5th is handled by frontline combatants and pyrosharks.
   
2. Players got good. As a person great at sniping with bullet time and drop, not having to calculate where my bullet would land each time was actually harder for me than having to. At the same time, I don't play sniper much and it isn't as fun for me as in games like ghost Recon. For others, not so much. You see players hitting airshots like a standstill training target. You see people hitting Pierce shots with the machina all the time now. People can do much more than they could before and have developed strategies (and the God forsaken bot) to do it even easier. It's just a lot of practice.
   
3. There are counters to sniper on some classes. The FS on heavy counters the damage, 2 of 4 of medics ubers counter him (which can be applied on every class), you can hit a lucky shot with the direct hit and possibly instakill a sniper, the wrangler is just a stationary sniper heavy, and spy and sniper as a whole are just counters to sniper. Scout can catch up to an incompetent sniper, spy has a gun, and everyone can deal chip damage, and as most snipers have a severe case of only seeing the infinitely fine point in the middle of their screen, they won't care about that damage.
   
4. Sniper doesn't get random crits on his rifle. This won't affect good snipers, but a sniper that bodyshots a lot or generally isn't that good (which is quite common, it's like a half and half of good and bad snipers) will be. This is a small point, but one to be made.
   
5. Sniper has only 3 good secondaries and 1 mediocre one. It is true that engineer has only 3 secondaries, but they are all good in their own ways. The backpacks are all bad save for the cozy camper, which IMO is a great secondary. The cleaners carbine is just a worse jarate. There is no point to using literally half of snipers secondaries. Even medic has a wider variety of secondaries, and they're all based on the same heal/boost function.
   

This is all my opinion, and now pick a side. JOIN my side and give me points to strengthen my arguement, or COUNTER with your own points. 1 point per person on either side. 2 points if you join both.

Hi there. As a favor, I have been tasked with repairing a Charleville 1816 carbine stock. It is a beautiful Tulle made one and was carried very little, unused even less. Over all it cleaned up nice, the only down side is a chip broke off just behind the front band, it is a triangular shaped chip roughly 2 1/4 inches long, 3/4 of an inch at it widest points. Normally I would Acra-glas this and be done with it, however the owner wants what he calls a "period correct" repair using period correct adhesives and insists I use hide glue.
For the record, I attempted to explain how acra-glas would make the repair stronger and there are a few other spots where some acra-glas would prevent further problems down the line. The stock is 202 years old and it is showing it age in some spots where it is separating along the grain. Long story short, he wasn't having any of it. To put is kindly, I think this guy is quirky, perhaps more than a little OCD about authenticity that your run of the mill collector. But to each their own. So hide glue it is. Does any one have any experience using Hide Glue or would know of a particular brand or strength of that would fit this application?
Open to any suggestions. Thanks and keep your powder dry.

I was given a JBL Explorer 20 and a JBL Super Carbine. Both guns are around 20 years old and neither have been used in over 10 years. I need to replace the bands online but my search has been to no avail. I cannot seem to find the right measurements. I found some measurements but when I look for bands that size I can’t find any bands. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Time stamp
11.5 LE6933 barrell: ~SOLD $140- f marked Fsb, delta ring, barrel nut and a2 flash hider
12.7 H&R commando upper: $450 or $400 stripped. Specs
14.7 p&w upper: $500- C7 upper, FN 14.7 BB carbine length barrel, colt non F FSB, mid west FSB light mount and leupold pic rail for carry handle(selling all together not splitting)
Any questions just PM me. Open to offers just not trades.

I am looking to SBR my ruger 10/22 charger soon, I want to make it into a handy little carbine for small game hunting (rabbits, Grouse general small game)
Ideally I'd like to put a folding stock on it to make it easier to transport like if I want to keep it in my hunting bag.
I know the assault weapons ban exmempted .22 rimfire guns, but did it exempt the acessories for them as well or will i need to use a fixed stock?

I am new to gun ownership and I am trying to completely swap everything attached the upper receiver on my ar15 and replace it with this https://www.bearcreekarsenal.com/5-56-nato-16-parkerized-m4-1-7-twist-carbine-15-mlok-nrail-dual-charge-upper.html I do understand that the flash hider is not allowed so I'd just keep the tip I have now, but replace everything else. Would it be legal to buy this complete upper online or should I strictly try to find parts in-person and avoid any legal issues?
I originally wanted to have a 10.5" barrel, but I recently found out that would make my firearm into a SBR, so I am settling with keeping the 16" length. I want to get a complete upper because I lack to the skill to change everything individually.
I hope my post does not come across as a price check but I do need some help understanding from what is cheaply made/inexpensive vs what is overpriced.
Sorry in advance if my lack of knowledge makes my post confusing, I am still learning.

Hey everybody! I'm a new collector in 2024. Been trying to grab what I can this year and have been having a great time! I was thinking of adding a Mosin, but there are so many cool variants and I can only grab one for the foreseeable future due to budget reasons. I can't decide between the M44 Carbine, Finnish M39, or a 91/30. The M44 is just so damn cool, the M39 is the finest quality and most accurate, and the 91/30 would be a fun and cheaper gun to accurize myself. Obviously I'd love them all, but if I'm being realistic its gonna have to be one and thought I'd ask around
