    AR Meltdown

    Will the Gas Tube actually go first while Rapid Firing your Carbine on F/A to prevent it from being totally Destroyed ?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    I can tell you from personal experience Frank, the gas tube doesn't give out. They're stainless steel for a reason. Even Blank ammo will turn them red hot in a few rounds and then they glow for w bit after. They're protected in there and as long as you don't fiddle with them while they glow, they'll return to correct after. Just like a self cleaning oven. That's how they work anyway, they get good and hot and blow all the carbon out, for the most part.
    Regards, Jim

    Jim, Now why would you think I would do something like that, hahaha. I would need you here to operate the Camera. But your right about one thing, if I have to drive almost 2 hrs to the Ranch i'm going to take about 5 to 6 hundred Rounds of ammo with me and have some fun and come home empty. Its not worth it to go way out there and shoot 3 mags. I would have to wait too for a drizzly day or after real heavy rain the Brush is so dry I'm scared I'll burn my place up with all those flames. Hahaha.
