Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
Might go shooting again this Sunday, spend the day with the long rifle, but I might have to study instead..
Edit: It's a XM15-A3Z-50mm apparently

Got a question relating to the AR-15 (specifically the M4). What kind of mods would you make to improve it internally, and what are the benefits of doing so?
What do you mean by 'improve'?

Couldn't you replace the working parts with better pieces? Or is it more about tweaking the existing components?JohnG@lt wrote:

What is your major malfunction
Are you having a malfunction you're trying to correct?

And no, each bolt is unique to each weapon. You could replace the spring if you want but the rest of the internals... no.

Research purposes. I've heard a lot of SF guys carry modified weapons, but I wasn't sure if this was just the addition of accessories or different grips/buttstocks/barrels/mags/etc, or if they had somebody gut and essentially rebuild the innards with more reliable or finely tuned parts.
Ah well, thanks for the insightJohnG@lt wrote:

I disagree. Swapping out bolts, bolt carriers and trigger groups is easy and can be done rather quickly, that's one of the advantages of an AR... the compatibility. Piston operated AR's don't really go by a standard though and the bolt/carriers differ in design between manufacturers. You could argue all day which bolts, carriers and trigger groups are best, but if it runs it runs........ don't fix it if it ain't broken. My experience with AR reliability has more to due with the chamber and whether it's able to handle steel cased ammo (like Wolf), which due to their coating can get stuck in tight chambers.JohnG@lt wrote:

Gun bill clears Wyoming Senate
CHEYENNE -- Wyoming residents would be able to carry concealed guns without a permit under a bill that cleared the state Senate on Monday.
The Wyoming Senate voted 20-10 in favor of the bill, sponsored by Sen. Kit Jennings, R-Casper.
If the bill ultimately becomes law, Wyoming would join Alaska, Arizona and Vermont as states that don't require citizens to have permits to carry concealed weapons.
Supporters of the Wyoming bill note that the state and federal constitutions guarantee the people's right to carry guns. They also say criminals are already carrying concealed weapons illegally.
Opponents, however, said they're worried about putting more guns into hands of people who shouldn't have them.
Sen. Cale Case, R-Lander, voted for the bill. "In my heart, it just comes down to responsible people following the law and carrying a gun are not a threat," he said after the Senate hearing.
"It's people not following the law, or who are mentally over the top, they're not going to be deterred by a law that says you can't carry it," Case said. "To me, in the end, it's pretty clear."
Sen. Charles Scott, R-Casper, spoke against the bill on the Senate floor.
"Here we're all for protecting the right to keep and bear arms," Scott said after the vote. "My thought was this bill was dangerous in that respect, in that it removed some of the controls we have on people carrying concealed weapons who are likely to be dangerous."
Scott said the average person could manage a concealed weapon. "It's the people that drink too much, and the people who are just plain literally crazy that you have to worry about," he said.
Wyoming already has issued more than 20,000 permits that allow citizens to carry concealed guns. The state would retain its permit system if Jennings' bill becomes law because the permits allow people to carry concealed in other states that have agreements with Wyoming.
Scott said it's debatable whether the existing permit system gives law enforcement enough discretion to deny permit applications.
"This law goes the exact opposite direction," and justifiably makes law enforcement nervous, Scott said. "I think there's a risk if this passes you're going to have a real tragedy, the left-wing gun control folks are going to use as an excuse for pushing some gun control that really would be dangerous for our rights."
Several law enforcement officials urged a Senate committee last week to consider carefully any change to the state's existing permit system.
Anthony Bouchard, executive of the Wyoming Gun Owners Association, said his group has been lobbying for the bill.
"We certainly want criminals to be punished to the max," Bouchard said. "But we don't want people that are just exercising their right to defend themselves penalized when they have no ill intent."

i saw that nice undercover vid of people buying guns at a arizona gunshow recently with no background check
Yeah those guys are playing a dangerous game. They are private sellers, but could be making enough money and/or moving enough firearms for the ATF to consider them unlicensed dealers. Private sellers don't have a way to conduct background checks unless they go through a dealer or pay for a private service and who knows how good or complete that may be. Either way it's going to cost something and if it was really about stopping guns from getting into the wrong hands it would be provided free by the government. If I'm doing a private transaction and the buyer says that to me I'm going to ask him why he wouldn't pass. Maybe his identity was stolen or who knows what else. I'm sure there are a few reasons one may not pass a background check, yet they're legally able to own, purchase and possess firearms. Not a good idea to go through with the transaction after such a comment is made though.
So put every transaction through a registered dealer or the police, we can do either here.
There is licensing and registration too but they're different matters.
If a small amount of inconvenience means its harder for trash to buy firearms I don't see a problem.
