I have started loading up some .223 for my AR-15 based varmint rifle. The results to date have been discouraging- weird almost. On the weekend I took out some loads to the range and did some test firing. Batch #1 Winchester brass Winchester primers BL-C(2) 24.4 gn Hornady Match #2278 BTHP...

I am building a precision AR with a Rock River stainless bull-barreled 20" upper, and with a Magpul Precision adjustable stock. Topping it with a Super Sniper 10x42. That's the known stuff. The unknown is- how high should I make the rings to get a good cheek weld? The Magpul stock is...

Anyone know of any online sellers having any for sale? Failing that, what do we have for stockpiling? Any opinions on the Guatemalan 360 round battlepacks AIM is selling? madkiwi

I was just flicking through the channels, and saw a promo for some new show on Oxygen(!). The thing that made me stop was a bunch of full-auto gunfire and things exploding. I completely missed: a) When the premiere is 2) What the show was called (I thought it was "Shooting Housewives"...

I wanted a Surefire Millenium M500A for my M4gery, until I priced them. As you all may know- msrp is $515, I could get one for $390 from a dealer here on thr. Still too much, IMHO, as I am cheap. Not so cheap that I would just duct tape a 6P light to the handguard though, and I didn't want to...

So I want to replace my M4 handguards, mostly so I can start adding cool doodads (lights and lasers). Right away, I am puzzled by the options. Knight's have their version, the RAS which goes for around $330 Surefire has the M73 for an msrp of $195 Then Fobus markets the First Samco...

Surefire must have their dealers on a very, very short leash. MSRP is $235, and everywhere I look it is $235. Appreciate it if someone can direct me to a deal on it. Thanks madkiwi

I use my office address as a mailing address for almost everything. I was going to fill out the application with my home as the address in section 3 and my office as the Mailing address in section 4. So when I buy something which address do the guns get sent to? The premises address or the...

In California only handguns that pass the Department of Justice safety test can be sold. FFLs can not even import used guns that are not on the list. However, there is a loophole. Private party sales are exempt. New residents are allowed to bring whatever handguns they already own with them...

Hey everyone, I was going to buy an Aimpoint CompML2 and mount it on my AR flat top, but was wondering if I need to mount it higher than a ARMS 22M68 would hold it. I keep seeing pictures of people with Aimpoints and they have lifter/spacers there. Would the front sight post get in the way...

I don't know if this has been linked yet, but there is a very disturbing, foaming-at-the-mouth pile of evil venom posing as an Opinion column on the SFGate.com website. If you have just had something to eat, please don't read this. I feel sick to my stomach. I was going to email the author...

We are going to Yosemite this weekend, driving through the park but staying in a rented home just outside the park boundary. I want to take my Springfield 1911, but am confused by the rules. According to the regulations here The actual law says something quite different Note the...

Well so far I have Mike at Krausewerk (thanks QuarterBoreGunner) but that is down in San Mateo. Looking for someone closer. Got ahold of Leonard Stefanelli in Brisbane, but he wants $75 for the privilege. Don't know if that includes DROS, it had better. Jackson Arms wanted 15% of the value...

This is from the following article on the Christian Science Monitor website: http://www.csmonitor.com/2003/0729/p01s02-uspo.html I was under the belief that very few CCWs are revoked anywhere- but in Utah nearly 2% have? How many of these were for committing violent felonies? The article says...

You guys seen the deal? Buy a Springfield M1A before Sept 30th, and for $250 you also get a 3rd gen mount, rings and a 6x40 government model range finding scope (plus a SA folder). Store near where I am has a sale on the plain-Jane M1A parkerized, fiberglass stock, for $1099. Anyone know...

OK, last week there was an idea floated to organize a shoot at los Altos or Chabot or Sunnyvale. Sven? Anyone? I'm interested. I was planning on working on my Pathfinder this weekend, but guns before cars, I say. madkiwi

I want to find 13 x 19" targets in pdf format for printing at home on my wide format Canon printer. 11 x 17" would be ok too. Anyone have some good ones they know of online that are free? Especially ones scaled for large format paper, not just letter sized stuff. Thanks, Madkiwi
