Ok, I get the Pistol Caliber Carbine concept, but they are usually limited to 9mm, .40s&w and .45acp.
As maligned as the .30 carbine is, always being slighted as more of a pistol caliber, why aren't PCC's ever chambered in the anemic .30 carbine. As it's compared to the .357 magnum and .357...
Ok, here's the situation, having sold off my only high power rifle, Rem 700 in .308 I am left with 6.8 AR's and 7.62x39 AK's.
I feel I need to have at least one high power rifle to bridge the obvious gap. Here's the catch, I don't like bolt actions and don't want any magnum calibers.
I would...
I just sold my Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .308 and I'm going to buy a Remington 7600 in .308 to replace it.
I've just never liked bolt actions, I've always just had one because it was the status quo.
Working the action requires removing your hand from the grip and it's awkward. Loading and...
Well, I finally did it. I am down to just three handguns and they are all exactly the same, Gen 3 Glock 21's. All have the 3.5lb disconnector's and Tru-Dot fixed night sights.
In my history I have had numerous types of handguns in various calibers, but being the pragmatic weirdo that I am, I...
I have a Rock River Arms LAR-6 A4 Mid-Length rifle, I love this rifle and it shoots great, but I have only one complaint....it's nose heavy. It came with a heavy contour 16" Chrome Moly 6-groove, 1:10 SPCII barrel on it.
I've been wanting to change the barrel out for some time now and have...
Just curious as to how many of you rifle shooters use low powered scopes on your high powered rifles.
What is considered a high powered rifle is relative so I guess I have to say for this question, high powered would be considered .243 and above.
For those of you that do, why do you do it...
Well, this rifle has certainly piqued my interest. It apparently takes standard AK magazines. Seems expensive for what it is though and upper and lower are both proprietary.
Hmmm, all the problems with 7.62x39 on standard AR lowers appear to be addressed here, this thing is built from the...
I was looking at lightening up my scoped rifles and have scopes that are about 9 1/2" long. I like the LaRue setup and am considering using their single ring LT150 over their two ring LT104.
Would it be ok to use the single ring version over the two ring version for a 9 1/2" scope or do I...
I had "tacticalized" my hunting shotgun by replacing the 26" vent ribbed barrel with an 18" police "riot" barrel and installing a magazine extension. It spent many years configured this way......and I never used it. I finally changed out the worn and scuffed up wooden stock and pump forearm and...
I got to thinking about who makes all metal, non-1911 pistols in .45acp anymore?
I found the Sig 220, but I could not find any all metal, non-1911 pistols by any of the major pistol manufacturers anymore, anywhere......what gives?
The 1911 market is so swollen with everyone's...
I don't just like the .308win, I love it. I also like the reliability of military rifles chambered in that round.
What I have discovered about the .308 is that to get the most out of the cartridge the rifle should be scoped. The .308 is capable of reaching out there and magnification helps...
I stumbled upon Leupold's new line of VX-6 rifle scopes here http://www.opticsplanet.net/leupold-vx-6-riflescopes.html
It isn't listed on Leupolds web site yet, but I think I need the 1-6x24mm illuminated German #4 scope :cool:
Just wondering if any of you have gone to 20-round AK magazines, either exclusively or for certain circumstances.
I bought several Hungarian 20-round magazines and fully intend to use them exclusively with my AK and lose the 30-rounders.
They are shorter and lighter than the typical...
Considering the place of shotguns for various situations, I understand the versatility, but the range is quite limited.
If I had the choice between a shotgun or carbine for defensive situations necessitating the use of a long gun, from either the two-legged or four-legged varieties, I'd...
Just curious to know, you have that rifle and that handgun or shotgun, or whichever combination your first two firearms are, whats that third gun you have to have or keep?
I have the rifle, the handgun, the third one?
As much as I want to say shotgun, I'm thinking my Marlin 60 would...
OK, what do you all think? My LAR-8 is the full-length 20" barrel A4 model. I have deliberated exhaustively with myself over what optic to put on it for weeks now. I was torn between a Leupold VX-R 4-12X50 and the ACOG TA11E.
I would like to find a lighted-reticle fixed 6X scope with good...
I've been looking at carbines in .45acp and got to wondering at what point does barrel length start to inhibit the velocity of the .45acp cartridge. I think the Tommy gun barrel length was 10.5" (?), was that the optimal length before barrel friction started to slow it down? The H&K UMP .45acp...
I had been thinking about a pistol calibered carbine again lately and saw how few and far between they are anymore. If Marlin were to offer their Camp 45 again I'd order one right now.
Then I got to thinking of how neat it'd be if they could just use their model 60 and "upgrade" it to shoot the...
I get on these gun kicks every once in awhile, thinking how cool it'd be to have this gun or that gun. But I'm a pragmatist in the truest sense and find myself slapping myself back into reality shortly afterwards.
For example, I got to thinking how cool it would be to get a .45acp carbine.
