anyone into tinkering/modifying their own firearms?

what mods,upgrades have you done to your weapon...real gun work not just bolting on a neato foregrip on your tacticool rifle..

I did a grip safety, hammer, and trigger on my 1911. Took some filing to get the safety to work correctly. That's it other than adding accessories. Not much really.

anyone done any bolt polishing on an autoloading rifle?

I recently polished my feed ramp and it came out great,I'm about to do my entire bolt surface,I'm pretty good at polishing so I figure if I dont take off too much metal all should be good.

Not a lot just modding trigger. polishing sear ect basic stuff. Gotta make a shim for rear sight on 22.

i dunno.. i guess i should not comment till i held and shot one.
maybe the show just doesn't do them justice..lol

theres a reason they are renowned all around the country as some of the best custom firearm builders in the nation..and have been YEARS before any kind of show.

it takes six months to a year to get a gun because of the amount of business they get..

the show does kind of make them come off as idiots,but I can assure you any weapon built or customized by red jacket will be top notch work,with the finest parts and an amazing attention to detail..I have no reason to jock them..I dont own one of their guns but know the work they do is solid.

I do trigger jobs on smith revolvers. More stoning then polishing if u doing it right...
