      Check out Sadlak's web site as well as Brownell's and MidwayUSA. Brownell's should make a tool kit with all the relevant tools for the M-14 / M1A but so far no luck. Just do a search in rifle tools and choose M1A and you'll be flooded with options. Good luck and happy hunting.

      I am no longer putting up my newest videos here on UselessTube. Here is a link to the mud test video. Knowing how the rifle operates and using grease, it will run when covered in mud.

    Do you replace your extractors with GI ones? People swear that the factory one is MIM and is unreliable. Mine has north if 500 rds without issue, but I'm considering replacing it with a GI.

    • @mackdaddy1911a1
      @mackdaddy1911a1  4 роки тому +2

      I have heard the same thing. A GI or drop Forged replacement in your range bag is a good idea. And is on the list of essential parts I am going to cover in another video. I would purchase one and intend to before all is said and done.

    • @mackdaddy1911a1
      @mackdaddy1911a1  2 роки тому

      Do you have a dial caliper? I did a video on getting a battle zero but I didn't preset and lock my caliper before I started. So I flubbed it a bit. I think the suggested amount is .008ths increments to center the front sight before adjusting elevation. I would measure the front sight base and center it exactly before starting.
      Follow the directs for the rear sight to zero it for you. The adjust the elevation knob and tighten it.

    Question Buddy I picked up a flip up butt plate for my scout.Will it use the same hardware as the rubber one,or are the screws shorter? Haven`t pulled the factory one off yet.Thanks!

    • @mackdaddy1911a1
      @mackdaddy1911a1  4 роки тому +1

      I think I remember seeing different length screws for rubber butt pads. But I used the same screws that came with the polymer stock when I installed the steel butt plate on the G.I. fiberglass stock.

    I would also include a broken case extractor in your kit. They are inexpensive and it's the only thing that is going to get a broken case out of your chamber. Here is a link to one on Amazon: www.amazon.com/UTG-7-62x51mm-Broken-Shell-Extractor/dp/B00NJFVACA

    • @mackdaddy1911a1

    That's why you shouldn't waste your money on that stupid multi-tool (NOT ESSENTIAL).
    It's too small to get leverage on the gas plug. Just use a ratchet with 3/8th socket.
    Your not in the middle of a battle. You always have a chance to do all your work at home OR just have a small tool box in your truck (as you should).

    • @mackdaddy1911a1
      @mackdaddy1911a1  2 роки тому

      You are not thinking about field use. In the field having one tool to do the job is better than several. One too in the Rifle VS in your gear. They cost less and were designed for the job.
