The Austrian StG58 parts kit came with a set of pressed-steel handguards, which were truly awful. I replaced these with a U.S.-made polymer version, which resulted in a grip that was much cooler (both in terms of temperature and looks) and more secure.
The salary range for adjuncts, however, can be considerably higher or lower, depending on the institution, the specialty and the terms of employment. Adjunct professors working as instructors average $45,977, while adjuncts with the title of lecturer earn $52,436. By comparison, adjuncts make almost half the salary of full-time tenured professors, whose salary averages $108,749. Earnings fluctuate by discipline, with education and humanities paying less than medicine, engineering, law and business.
Not surprisingly, at community colleges, adjuncts said they are paid much less. At Houston Community College, adjuncts reported earning between $1,200 and $2,200 for a three-credit English course. In some departments, adjuncts said anecdotally that pay depends on the degree held.One adjunct professor in history, for example, reported that where he or she works, instructors with Ph.D.'s earned about $800 more than those with master's degrees.any adjuncts have also indicated that they are essentially shut out of participating in most forms of governance. The overall average pay reported by adjuncts is $2,987 per three-credit course. Adjuncts at 16 colleges reported earning less than $1,000.
