Ok been sick for weeks. Miserable and bored so I'm going to make a few videos. As long as my POS camera works I will post through out the day.
First up Front sight/gas cylinder wobble and cylinder spline peening
peening
rear sight
rear hand guard
lock up
front hand guard
The videos are dark as I'm filming in a basement room and the lighting sucks. Just a lamp and over head florescent.
The camera is a 2004 Kodak easy share with like 3pixel or some shit. If I find some sort of decent tri pod for my cell phone it's a little better than this old POS
REAR SIGHT CALIBRATION
I really don't bother doing this as I cant see the lines and even painting them is short lived if you shoot enough. I just get my zeros and right them down and keep a log book for match/range conditions. plus my zeros change a bit for positions as well.
But this is your standard calibration for what ever ammo you choose to use with your rifle. It will be good enough for hits on targets on the range selected.
On my match rifle I just paint some reference marks on the drum and receiver and also on the windage hash marks behind the receiver so I know Im at my base zero when I start a match.
I also mark the front sight so I can tell quickly if it has been banged around and moved.
little better lighting here. My big problem is I really don't have a functional work bench with room for a tri pod. I do everything in a very restricted space or right on the carpeted basement room. Any particular work I need more than that I bring it to my work
