  1. So what do you do if you pull the trigger then keep the trigger held and recock the hammer and when you slowly release the trigger you don’t hear the disconnector release the hammer getting caught by the seer and when you squeeze the trigger the hammer doesn’t fall but instead gets jammed so you have to treat the rifle like a bolt action almost in order to use it

  2. Can you make a video teaching how to find and order/buy a custum gun from a gunsmith , i want to make a M1 carbine in .22 Magunum and i can't find one to buy so i decid to search for a gunsmith to make one , but there is no information about that online , at least not one that is easy to find !!
    Thanks

  3. Please explain the logic why m4 or ar15 saftey selector switch wont go to the safe while the hammer is not cocked or loaded. Kindly if possible please make a video on it. Your Swift action is highly appreciated. Thanks

  4. MIDWAY USA HAS HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM! THEY REFUSE TO HELP WITH ORDER ISSUES AND BLAME THE CUSTOMER FOR ALL PROBLEMS! DO NOT GIVE LARRY POTTERFELD, MATT FLEMING OR ANY OF THE CON ARTISTS AT MIDWAY USA YOUR BUSINESS! SHOP ELSEWHERE!

  5. Absolutely lousy customer service from MidwayUSA. They take no responsibility at all for ammo containers damaged during shipping with ammo spilled all over the place. No refunds, no returns, period. All because of a lousy packing job that one of their employees did. Done with these guys.

  6. Midway sucks, I'm still waiting on a package that was due 3 days ago. These cheap bastards used ups innovations and charged me top rate. The ups dropped my package off to the USPS in Michigan and I have no updates. Midway is a garbage greedy company. Infact I've learned a valuable lesson online. And that is buy from the manufacturer directly. Never use a vendor they always cut corners at your expense.

  7. Can you please show us how we can fix wood finish (like when it is dented or it has warn of or scrates) the type of finish that i mean you can see cery well on a browning safari

  8. Hello . I have a question . Do muzzle brakes damage the rifle scope ? One of my friends told me that muzzle brakes have a reverse recoil like springer Air rifles and they damage the scope . so is that true ? you are so experienced shooter your thoughts are going to Help me so much for understand this problem .thankyou

  9. I think instead of these short how-to videos, you should really make one big video of how to disassemble, reassemble, and check for functionality of an AR-15. Probably would get alot more views as well. Sad to see the newer videos not get as many views as the older ones 🙁
