Good enough. I was trying to find a pic of the M4 style feedramps, but I guess that style has proliferated all over.

I spent enough time cleaning those things, I'd kick myself if I didn't get that one.

I'll refrain from this one... I found out what it is. You should save the pic to your desktop as something like "part1.jpg" then upload it using the "Attach Image" button. I can follow the image link to the site you pulled it from =\

I knew it was possible and easy to do, but no one seemed to do it yet. I just hoped it continued that way.

headspace and timing gages. Looks like the one's (.50 Cal) I used to have sent to me when I worked in an Army calibration shop.

While I did read the picture eventually, I didn't need to. I knew what it was at first glance. I worked in the VaARNG Calibration Lab in Richmond for several years. Those .50 cal. gages, and other small arms gages, were sent to us at certain intervals to check for wear. There was also a small arms shop in the building I worked in. :thumbsup:

This one should be easy-

Looks like a trigger pull scale but a little different.

Nope, it's used on old firearms and replicas, not on modern firearms.
