    Open carry ...at the Post Office?

    While standing in line today to pick up some packages and I noticed the guy in front of me was open carrying a Glock in a Serpa-style holster. He was not in any kind of uniform. If he was some form of LEO, he was either off duty or under cover. Have I been misinformed about the law regarding...

    Shot timers

    Been thinking it is about time to add a shot timer to the range bag and was wondering what y'all use. This would just be for myself and wife to use, no matches or club shoots. What features do you like about yours? Where did you get it? Is it sensitive enough for dry-fire practice? All of...

    Scope clearance on AR rifles

    I have several AR-10 and AR-15 rifles with scopes mounted on a flattop receiver. My problem is lack of finger clearance to get a good purchase on the charging handle. By the time I get the scope positioned for eye relief, the scope is sitting right on top of the charging handle. Do I need...

    Need help finding a magazine

    The wife wants to shoot her Smith and Wesson Model 4526 in an upcoming defensive pistol class. The class requires a minimum of 3 mags, and recommends having 4 mags for your pistol. Our problem is we only have 2 mags for this pistol. Does anyone have a source for mags that would work? It is a...

    How windy is too windy to zero a scope?

    I was planning on going out this afternoon to zero my new scope on my new rifle, but we are getting a bit of breeze today. Wind is 10 -15 mph. If it is blowing the same direction at the range as it is here at the house, it will be a full value cross wind. Rifle is a Bushmaster LR 308...

    Why is a SCAR so expensive?

    I'm getting the urge for another AR style .308 rifle. Stopped in the local gun shop the other day, and the first thing Matt showed me was the SCAR. He said "I know you like the .308 platform and this is great!" I admit it is a nice looking rifle. Feels good and I could definitely enjoy...

    At what distance do you sight in your scopes?

    All my scopes are zeroed at 100 yards because right now, that is the farthest I can shoot on the local range. My two principle calibers are .223/5.56 and .308/7.62x51. I would like the .308s to be zeroed a bit further than the .223, but not sure what is practical. I would also like to zero...

    Removing lacquer from a chamber

    Went out today to burn up about 150 rounds of old Wolf .223 ammo just to get rid of it. I was shooting it through my DPMS AR 15. First 30 round mag went like a clock. No problems. Then I let the rifle cool while I shot the pistol. Went back to the AR and the 3rd round of the second mag jammed...

    Question for Remington rifle experts

    With all the hoopla regarding the Remington 700 trigger nowadays, I got to wondering about my Rem 788. Does the 788 use the same trigger assembly as the 700? I've read about the 700 and 720, but have not seen anything about the 788. I really like the way mine shoots (sub MOA if I do my part)...
