Top 18 inexpensive Gun Maintenance – Gun Smithing

Hey youtube nc shootist here did a video. A couple weeks back i think it was on. The Remington 760 game master disassemblies. And reassembly and i had a viewer comment hey why don’t you show us how the bolt of the 760 comes apart and goes. Back together so i figured i would show that process to you today so getting. Started what we’ll need a small hammer you might. Need a big hammer if your vote is stubborn like mine was the first time i. Took it apart a small little computer. Type screwdriver a one-eighth inch punch. It’s good to have a magnetic part straight just make sure nothing gets lost a pair of needle nose pliers and of. Course your bolt so let’s go ahead and. Get started and when we look at the bolt. You can see that there are two small pins there’s a smaller one on this side. And a larger one on the other side that. Hold the actual bolt into the carrier. Alright so if you look there are some. Channels cut into the bolt and we can. See that little pin that sticks through the bolt carrier into the bolt so first. Think we want to do is take our small computer screwdriver okay, and we’ll get. In there and push those pins up first. Okay and then we’ll take our needle nose pliers, and we’ll pull that smaller pin. Out go ahead and set it on our tray well. The pliers won’t let go of it okay now. We’ll move on to the bigger one on the other side you can see it here take out. Screwdriver again push that one up just. Enough to be able to grab it with the. Pliers okay. We’ll take that larger pen and set it aside and now the bolt will come free. From the carrier okay, so we’ll go ahead and set the our bolt aside all right now. I’m not going to take the extractor out because there’s a focus you can see. There’s a small pin in there that holds. The extractor plunger and i don’t have a. Punch that’s that size, so we’ll leave it. In there for now the only part left is. The firing pin okay and you can see focus alright you can. See there’s a small little pin that. Holds the firing pin in so the firing pin has a slot cut in it so what we’ll. Need to do is chuck this up in a vise. And I’ll show you how to drift this pin. Out so it’s its hard to do the first time but once you get the hang of it’s not too bad so let me get the vise. Set up, and then we’ll drift that pin out okay I’ve got our bolt carrier chucked. Into my vise and what I’ll do is use. Some softwood some pine or something. Leave the front lugs of the bolt carrier. Sticking out past the wood blocks. And then chuck where the pin goes. Through make sure that’s in contact with the wood blocks so you get a nice. Solid contact alright and I’ve already. Started this pin a little bit so we’ll just drift it the rest of the way out so. Take your punch. And just drift that pin out okay and it. Just dropped on the floor but no big deal well we’ll get it later all right. So what we’ll do is take the bolt. Carrier back out of the vise okay and. You can see once i take the firing pin. Out there’s that notch that lines up. With the hole in the bolt carrier all. Right so the reassembly process is. Just the reverse and one thing to. Mention before we get back to the reassembly you can see in my bolt. Carrier I’ve got a 760 and it’s the. Model a dl which has the chequered. The checkering cut into the stock and. The four in so the later Remington’s. Have a firing pin spring that sits down. In the bolt carrier okay if you’ve got. One of the earlier 760 s i believe they. Do not have a firing pin spring so. That’s one thing to notice if you open yours up and you’ve got an early model of 760 and it doesn’t have a firing pin. Spring that’s the way it’s supposed to. Be so don’t panic if you’ve got an. Early one and you don’t see a firing pin spring all right so let’s try to get. This guy back down in here okay we’ve. Got the firing pin spring back into. The bolt carrier and I’ve already started the pin that retains the. Firing pin and you’ll notice this is the. The top of the bolt carrier so the pin. When you drift it out you want to drift. It from top to bottom and when you put it back in you want to go bottom to top okay so it’s good to go ahead and get. That pin started you can see it there so. What we want to do is maybe back it out just a little bit. With a punch just enough to get the firing pin lined up okay go ahead and. Put your firing pin in and that notch. Will line up with the hole here let’s. See if we can get some daylight through here see if you can see that okay so you. Can see there’s that notch in the firing pin, so we’ll move it out of the way and. We’ll start our pin from the bottom okay and that will at least line everything. Up so we can get it set back in the bolt. Carrier okay so we’ll go back to our. Vise all right we’ll take our eighth. Inch punch. We’ll just drift that pin back in there. Okay so you can see that pin is now set. Back into the bolt carrier the firing. Pin is secure but it’s also free to. Move around that’s what you want you don’t want the firing pin to be stuck forward because if it is once you go to. Close the action you’re gonna have a slam fire and that’s what you don’t want so make sure you’re firing pins nice and free okay there’s the large hole. That was on the side of the carrier. And you’ll notice the actual bolt. You have two different size channels you’ve got a smaller one and a larger. One okay so obviously the larger one is. Gonna line up with the larger holes okay. So we take our pins that we set aside in. Our tray i will take the larger one. And we’ll get it started into the. Bolt carrier body okay we’ll line up the channel and. Just push it in with your thumb now if. You have trouble just take your punch and kind of give it an extra little push but it should go in pretty freely so if. It’s not going in freely don’t force it and try to figure out what’s causing it to bind up all right, so we take out. Smaller one just push it in with your. Thumb and there you have it there’s your. Disassembled and reassemble bolt for the. 760 game master so i appreciate you. Watching if this video was helpful give it a thumbs up thank you guys for watching god bless we’ll see you next time.

Look what i got in the mail today guys it is the shooting matt from cabala’s. Pretty nifty and take a look at it next. Okay folks so this is the shooting matt. From cabala’s it is waterproof it’s made out of pvc it is very well padded it’s. Very beefy this is exactly how it comes out of the box it has a very nice. Shoulder strap so you can carry it to. The range or to your shooting competition very nice carbines right. There and of course carry handle and. It’s closed up rolled up by velcro. Straps so very beefy very fee. It also has incredibly beefy grommets. Right here so i think that this is a. Very nice tool to have particularly if. You’re going to be shooting long range so it’s actually a must so there it is. Laid out and all of its glory it does have a total of six grommets so you can stake it down if you were in an area that you were going to be for a long time or if it was very windy but as you. Can see it has this really nice grippy rubber right here and then here’s your. Grommets right here. I’ve been beard on the other side you. Also have these very nice little pocket that you can put whatever you want you. Want to put your ballistic calculator in there you could put a box of. Ammo you also have a zippered compartment right here that allows you. To put shooting glasses muffs whatever you want so I’m five nine almost five ten and as. You can see there’s more than enough room for me to. Get behind a gun on this and it’s really. Why so that is one of the biggest. Advantages of this mat and frankly why. It cost so much but it is wide and long. Compared to all the others on the market. So here’s a closer look at this pocket it does have a velcro closure and of course you have places to put pins right there that’s pretty nice up front here. You also have this row of well it’s like. A foot alright it’s sealed on three sides and so it allows you to kind of slide your bipod into that so that you. Don’t slip off the mat same thing at the very edge and of course on this side you. Have a very large zippered pocket so. This guy is really beefy and you know. What holds several boxes of memos mags you know you can put your glasses in there whatever you want okay so to fold. It up it’s really just that simple. And when you get it all rolled up take. The velcro strap cinch it down it’s a. Nice compact package there’s your carry strap and you’re ready to go okay. Pros and cons so the biggest pro for me is the fact that this guy is big its massive it is wide it is long and it is. Thick it’s got about a half inch of cushioning I’m a big boy so i want to be. Comfortable when I’m laying prone and shooting for long training sessions. Or long competitions so that’s the first one the second one has to be that this. Has tons of features you know you can stake it down it has tripod or bipod. Stops it has pockets so it’s just a very. Nice well-thought-out system that carries easily so all those features. Make it very nice and it’s not just a pad right it’s not just a piece of pvc. Or not just a piece of carpet it’s actually functional and it rolls up very. Nicely now on to the negatives. Well the cons well the biggest one has. To be the price this is certainly one of the most expensive ones you’re likely to come across it’s right around 80 bucks. At cabala’s and that’s pretty pricey but. You do get the cabala’s name right and. You get the cabala’s warranty and not so. Fast you don’t actually get the cabala’s warranty anymore because they got bought out by pro shop so bass pro doesn’t honor the cabala’s. Warranty anymore my cabala’s name doesn’t mean that you’re gonna get a lifetime replacement anymore now if that. Changes I’ll let you guys know but as of the filming of this video no such luck. So that’s a bummer you pay all that money and you expect that you’re going. To get the warranty that they’ve had for generations they don’t have it anymore so it’s kind of bad on bass pro shop. It’s not particularly happy with that now it’s still a very good product and i would recommend it but don’t think that. You’re gonna buy this pay your 80 bucks and then in ten years when you know it. Wears out or gets ripped or whatever the case is that you’re gonna get it replaced it’s not gonna happen it looks like so all. Right that’s all I’ve got for you today so if you like these type of videos please do me a favor comment like share and if you haven’t please subscribe as always be. Safe and be good.

Hey guys I’ve grown thews east 88 here again coming you today from the workbench and rightfully so because today we’re reviewing the magpul armorer’s wrench this is a fairly simple. Tool but very useful it’s almost. The multi-tool of armorer’s wrenches you. Can buy for working on an ar build. Whether you’re new to the air market or you’re just now getting into building or maybe even building arrows for years. This is a must-have so have a couple of. Goodies on the table here for you today guys first off we have the stinger 15. Inch hawk free float hand guard just put this on my arrow build not too long ago awesome affordable and very easy to. Install free float hand guard great upgrade to make on your rifle just use. The magpul armorer’s wrench to go ahead and time the sinking machine phantom flash hider down perfectly worked out. Great there and also have my canik tp9. Sf elite rocking the old light pl mini valkyrie awesome little chargeable weapons light as well as my mod that i made to my 30 round beretta magazine to. Allow running in the beretta 92 series as well as the canik tp9 series go ahead and check that review out show you guys how to do that as well and of course i also did a review on the stinger hand guard so let’s go jump in kind of the features talk kind of why i would choose a little bit more premium wrench over maybe like some of the cheaper rods like there’s like $20 one here so you’re looking at about eleven point seven inches long by 0.35 inches thick about. 1.1 pounds not too bad the best price. I’ve seen currently is about 58 bucks so i mean it’s not cheap by any means but it’s also a much higher quality piece. Then you might see out on one of these cheaper standard like $20 armorer’s wrench it’s all of these are made in china it has about half as many tools and a. Lot cheaper like for example this castle not piece right here is only one stud. Verse three studs here so you’re not going to get as good of a torque using this wrench and you’re much more likely to actually potentially scrape something. On your rifle or even worse mess something up running through the features i this thing is chock-full of features i mean it’s really like the leatherman of armours wrenches it’s. Actually really well laid out as well. So I’m just gonna go and talk through it right now you do have a usgi barrel nut. Wrench right there I’m one of those on me I’ve actually since kind of moved to free flow which is good because it has a standard fruit float barrel nut wrench. Right there it also has a 1/2 inch. Torque right there torque slot for. Example here’s a half inch piece right. Here real tight lock up show you. Guys real nice lock up which is. Interesting because you go ahead and. Test this cheap one here where there is a slot here much looser for a half an. Inch much looser you can see it up. There real nice tight tolerances there. Moving on you have two armours hammers. Right here and here which is good for. Pins for punches real light work but. It’s nice to have a flat part there we. Actually can make contact with any kind of pins or punches to help out with your build especially when you work on the lower you also have a rifle buffer tube. Wrench that is actually right here that. Is something that’s on certain rifles i haven’t seen in a long time it’s on the back of the buffer tube and just kind of give you guys an idea when you’re looking for that it’s actually on the back of the buffer tube down here like i said i haven’t worked on those before but that is where that is so that is on there which is good and of course moving. Right along you also have a carbine. Buffer tube castle not wrench which is the three prong thing i mentioned right here and that on the rifle is right in. The back right here you can see there’s a four-point contact on that castle net you would run dry the wrench over the buffer tube and go ahead and torque this off and on depending on what you need to do with it and then when you’re using one like this you can see the wrench only has one point so you really have to kind of drag it in there and it only goes one way whereas the magpul you can. Put on their go either way no matter what you want to do with it alright so. Continue to moving along here you as well. Have a 3/4 inch right here this wrench. Right here is designed for most flash hiders and this is the exact one i used right here on this anki hill machine your head slide it over. Locks in nice and tight the tolerances. On this and of course it’s mack ball you know it’s gonna be awesome quality but the tolerances on this wrench are outstanding i mean this thing fits everything to the tee which is awesome and of course two more things left here. They also have a torque spec on the back here you guys can see that talk about. The torque for the barrel nut castle nut and flash hider your foot pounds right there good know it there magpul mating. Usa so you’ll focus where you guys there. You go and last but not least when. You’re done with your ar build you’re tired you want a nice beverage bottle. Opener right here go ahead use that. Propping your favorite beverage of choice so wrapping this up one thing to. Now is if you are working on your ar makes you go ahead and put the upper in a vise block or your lower in a vise block then make them from both it’s really something that’s better safe than sorry you don’t have to hold your rifle in one hand and try to balance the tool on the other hand like those armorer’s wrench it’s just not worth it put in a block so but kind of talking about the. Wrench here i think it’s very versatile the quality is there i mean if you’re looking to build maybe one ar or if. You’re looking to just work on the one ar you have you might get by with all these $20 gunshow special made in china. All steel armorer’s wrench i mean it’s. Real generic but it’s definitely something you can work with but that being said if you’re looking to do a few ar builds if you own a few a ars if you’re building with your buddies if you’re building a ars for your friends i mean things like that when you get into. Multiple rifle builds you’re going to want to pick up this right here i mean the versatility is there the pure amount of tools on here is incredible i. Mean everything you need everything you need to build an ar is pretty much almost all on here so i think it is an. Excellent value for what it is so well. Hey thanks for watching guys subscribe to the channel head on over Instagram i post a bunch of cool photos from products all the time go ahead and. Follow on their outdoor through this 88 let me. Up any questions below and I’ll see you the next review

Hey folks welcome to burn town. Blackhead what i have here is a magpul. Armorer’s wrench hopefully the shadow isn’t throwing things off but anyways this wrench is. Built specifically around an ar build or. M4 what we have is if I’ll be short and. Quick and sweet any rest barrel nut lock. Down this particular nut bolts the. Barrel on to the upper receiver and this. One here will tighten her down nice and snug this one here allows me to put in a. Breaker bar or a torque wrench bring it. To specific torque these particular lugs. Here are made for a free float hand guard. Nuts so again not for all but for a fair. Number of them i don’t have that type of. A bolt down assembly so i won’t be using those we have hammer pieces for working. On a rs or m force we have a bottle. Opener celebration end to the job or. Just packing the job in for the day good. Drink to go for accomplishments we have. A muzzle device wrench tightening down. The muzzle device loosening off the muzzle device changing out whatever we. Have a castle nut for the buffer tube. Assembly or tightening that on to a game. Actually the lower is what this. Would go into anyways it’s got a nice. Nice solid grip on that I’m that seats into that deep nice so as. Well as with that we have torque specs. On it for the barrel nut torque castle. Not torque flash hider torque this. Particular little piece here i can’t remember what the heck free flow to. Half-inch tourer murders hammer buffer. Carbine buffer to castle not wrench 3/4. Wrench for flash hider bottle opener and. Specs yeah I’m sure it’ll come to me eventually what the heck that little piece was for but hey remember it. Doesn’t matter nice little tool though american-made magnesium phosphate finish. Light just under a pound i believe a. Pound give or take one way or the other. A little more than i would have liked to. Spent for a wrench but giving it. Probably won’t be the only ar i ever build it’ll come to use if not i can’t. See it losing value so I’ll be able to. Sell it or it’s worth so again bear on. That buffer tube muzzle device install. Which i currently don’t have right now but hey well yeah muzzle device hope you. Enjoyed short and sweet to the point. Magpul ar wrench. Armorer’s wrench thank you for watching.
