Unrelated: Can you do a post that demonstrates the proper use of stacking swivels? Friend of mine and I want to do a New Years post with the arms stacked properly.

Navig8r - I like your thinking, but that would be a hellabig M14 if that was the rear sight ratchet... which, of course, it's not.
Og - if I can remember, I can probably provide.
