The real question is why don't you have one

^^^^

Alright serious question to guys building their own AK’s. what gauges do you use generally? Headspacing Gauge only or do you use no go gauge also?

might as well get all of them if you plan to do more builds

Field gauge too?

sure

I used two methods

go/ no go and the tape method

🤔

Mhmm

basically, if you really had to check headspace, you could use feeler gauge in X thickness

very field expedient method

verify with actual gauges

or tape, provided you verify the thickness of the tape

ehhh

lol

You do recognize that most bottleneck cartridges headspace off the shoulder, right?

Trying to do that with feeler gauged is totally wrong

hey, I'm not the one who came up with it

and I did emphasize field expedient and urge him to get the actual gauges

feeler gauge, tape, shim stock

not as bad as those idiots at CSSpecs who thought thermodynamics in a Century VSKA chamber only work in one direction

in short, can you check headspace with this method? yes

should you set headspace with this method? no

Recommending questionable field expedient methods to check something that could blow someone's hands off is irresponsible.

These are little explosions going on a few inches from our faces. If headspace is a question, this is not something to half-ass

Get off your high horse, Runes, you're blowing this out of proportion.

bad advice is bad advice

Time to go into debt for a 3D printer

Just download the plans like the rest of us

Awesome, now I just need the mythical do/k/ument

I lost my copy RIP

lolgay

I was going to cite the ar/k/ on my research paper for making machineguns

And zip gund

I can probably get a copy off TPB but I need not-shit torrent software

@Sadmin where is your copy?

On a hard drive in a vacuum sealed bag in a box that I've buried.

Nice
