Round of up M1-related questions I've thought around this Christmas season.
I'm asking for a couple of M1-related books and other items for Christmas since there's not much else I feel I need that's firearms related. If anyone feels inclined to respond, that's cool. If not, that's OK, too.
1.) What lubricants are you guys using on your M1s? I use ballistol generally and Hoppe's oil on rails and things. Thoughts?
2.) Are any enblocs better than others? To rephrase, are there any manufacturers to avoid, and how can one tell who made the particular clip? The last things I read were that there's not much difference. Since the ones I've seen are inexpensive, I guess you could just toss any that don't run well.
3.) Are there any consensus best choices for providers of the one and two round clips used for the matches?
4.) For those who have Ron Brown slings, do you simply write what you want on a piece of paper and mail it to him? It's not clear to me on his website.
6.) Anyone able to successfully change their password on the e-store? I get the "password successfully changed" message and an email, but the new password doesn't work and old one still does. Not a big deal, but odd.
Last two:
7.) Besides books, a sling, enblocs and lots of ammo, anything else an aspiring M1 owner should acquire?
8.) Why is the estore so evil? I have another HXP can on order.
