Thank you.
I don’t have any guns (freak boating accident, of course). My friend... is planning to buy an AR and would like to be able to shoot it without taking out a loan. Since steel case ammo is 5.27 at Walmart, it’s great that you figured out how to make it work. AR owners are forever in your debt.
You’re the only one I’ve seen figure this out.
Yeah. I’ve wondered why this isn’t more common knowledge. I heard it from my friend, who’s ex Army and a collector of vintage combat firearms (has several old 1911’s, Lugers, Mausers, and a sweet Colt AR-15 Sporter with a slab-side lower and full A1 style furniture).
He’s the one who turned me on to this method, although the first time he told me, I had the same reaction as many, that is, common knowledge says never to mix brass and steel case.
If I hadn’t done it myself for a while now, I’d not believe it myself.
