    DS Arms FAL

    Can I ask what a "significant" discount was? How much did you pay for it? I've been looking at possibly getting a FAL.

    Something to Consider

    Wow that would be highly unpleasant. Just hanging out, eating a pop tart, all of a sudden BANG 7mm mag shots through your floor.

    Something to Consider

    Good thoughts but I don't see anywhere where you state how the people in the Youtube have been unsafe with their handling of their firearms. I also don't see your thoughts on why you think people should start with a rifle and then move on to a pistol. Good overall post but I'd like to see more...

    AR-15 Rifle good idea for a minor?

    So someone posts an opinion that is different from what some of you have and you need to jump down that persons throat? Doesn't matter what the definition of an assault rifle is because the what the police think are assault rifles is anything with a pistol grip, a detachable high capacity...

    AR-15 Rifle good idea for a minor?

    An AR-15 IS considered an assault rifle. And I'm not questioning the caliber, but rather the need for a minor at age 16 to have a semi-auto "assault rifle" that outside of CA and other liberal states have 30 round clips. Who hunts with semi-auto rifles? For you to legally hunt with a AR-15, you...

    AR-15 Rifle good idea for a minor?

    Why would you want to give a 16 year an AR-15? IMO get him a nice .22 that he can shoot under supervision. Not sure why a 16 year old needs a tactical assault rifle. Not saying he'll do anything dumb with it, but just think it's overkill for a kid that age.

    Scope too high on my new Rem 700?

    Yea, I definitely think that mediums would have more than enough clearance. I do have a big melon (lol), but we'll see tomorrow if in fact the scope is too high. My gut says go with the mediums.

    Scope too high on my new Rem 700?

    It says right on the scope 50mm. I bought the 44mm version and returned it to get the 50. This definitely is the 50. The more I think about it and shoulder it, lay prone... whatever I can do at home without actually shooting it, I think it may be too high.

    Scope too high on my new Rem 700?

    Taliv... thanks for the quick response. I tried what you suggested and I actually opened up my eye with the scope in just about the right spot. I am 6'6" and probably a head to match. I thought it looked a little hookey up so high, but now with it on the bipod it doesn't look too bad. I guess...

    Scope too high on my new Rem 700?

    Guys, can I get some opinions? I was told by a very reputable source to buy Burris Tactical Xtreme HIGH rings for my Rem 700 with a 50mm scope. I just got my new Vortex Viper 6.5-20 50mm scope with those rings and after installing them I think the scope is too high. What you guys think? There...

    You're saying the company rep takes his time to give their side of the story and are ACTUALLY responding to the customers question and complaint and you find this to be a bad thing??? Unbelievable.

    $680 AR-15 at Crossroads of the West

    MrClean... thanks for the response, but I'm in no hurry to buy an AR. I do know that chrome lined barrels last longer but are a tad bit less accurate. He mentioned aluminium lined barrels. I had never heard of them, but then again I wasn't 100% sure if there were in fact aluminum lined barrels...

    $680 AR-15 at Crossroads of the West

    Sky, thanks for the comment. I guess I was really surprised because I don't normally see AR-15's for that price here in California. All the AR deals you see for $599 on the net don't ship to the US. So the cheapest alternative I've seen is having to buy a Stag for about a $1000. That's the...

    Finally, my M1A is complete.

    I just bought the Viper 6.5-20 44mm. I've only heard top notch compliments about the scopes. It's on a UPS plane as we speak. I decided to go with the 44mm because I never shoot in adverse light conditions since I don't hunt and it's basically the same glass as the 50mm. Can't wait to get it...

    $680 AR-15 at Crossroads of the West

    Hey all, I'm pretty new to AR-15s and I've seen a lot of passionate and knowledgeable people post good feedback on AR questions. I also want to preface this by saying that I believe in spending a bit more and getting something that will last a long time over saving a few bucks and getting a...

    Scope Rings help

    Thanks all. I ended up getting the Warne Medium Scope Rings from Opticsplanet. Rings, mount and scope are in route as I type. Can't wait to get it all mounted. I've read some people's opinions that you should get a nice scope installed by a gunsmith. I was planning on just getting some...

    Scope Rings help

    Hi Joe, thanks for the response. I'm thinking I'm going to go with High as well. I haven't bought the rings yet but will order them today. My Rem 700 Tactical Varmint is chambered 308 and I'm planning on shooting mostly 100 yards because it's hard finding a range with longer than that in the...

    Scope Rings help

    Hey guys, I just got a Rem700 and bought the Vortex Viper 6.5-20 44mm scope. Ring recommendation is get medium for anything up to 44mm and high for anything 45mm or larger. I want to get scope caps and have a bit of clearance. Any recommendation if I should just get High scope rings instead...

    Global warming is a myth?? Tell that to all the receding glaciers and ice in the arctic. Perhaps you just don't believe science. If you don't acknowledge a problem it just doesn't exist right?

    How do you like the Nikon Monarch? I'm debating between the Monarch and a Vortex Viper.
