How the Asian Avian Flu May Affect Your Life: ABC News

I mentioned last weekend that I had dropped by the gun show table run by Darryl Holland (of Holland’s of Oregon), and sent him home a Browning A-Bolt bolt action rifle for muzzle threading with 1/2″ x 28 threadsand installation of a Holland’s muzzle brake. I was delighted to see that the barreled action arrived at our mail forwarding station today. Talk about a fast turnaround! He must have had it in his hands less than three days. The work was done flawlessly, as usual. I highly recommend Darryl’s work. IMHO, “tacticalizing” your bolt action rifles (by threading their muzzles) is a must.The same threads can be used for Smith Enterprise Vortex flash hiders. (If it is for a .30 caliber rifle you will of course have to drill out the rear section of the flash hider for bullet clearance.) The folks at Holland’s of Oregon really know their stuff, and they’ve proven once again that they can complete a muzzle threading order very quickly.
