    Odd severe bullet drop yesterday

    Gonna toss this one out as I am trying to figure out what the deal is. Shot a local iron sight service rifle match yesterday and could not hit anything past 400 yards. not near misses, but with three spotters watching my lane, determined my bullets were impacting several feet low. Here are the...

    Down side to going NFA (Supressor/SBR)?

    SO, walk into LGS and they have a realy great deal on a 14x1L threaded AK supressor. I have 3 of the braced pistols currently up in the air with the new ATF nonsense. One of these being a full-size Draco. I currently own no NFA items, yet. I am fence sitting on filling out a form 4 and getting...

    Tradition Nitrofire and Firesticks

    These became legal for ML hunts in TN. I am intrigued as I have never done ML hunting before but do get some nice bucks on my property during ML season but they never seem show up during rifle season. Has anyone been using one? Worth the hype? BS all the way around? Too much money for the...

    I do not like my Garand (fits like a 2x4)

    I went down to Taladega CMP a ways back and came home with one of the $650 rack-grade refurb Garands. New barrel, new stock (walnut with CMP cartouche) , new re-finish on all parts. I love the rifle as I bought to shoot and do the ocassional vintage rifle match. I just hate shouldering the...

    Rem 700 VSSF trigger

    Been out of the presicion game for some time, been doing a bunch carbine stuff. Stumbled on a lightly used Remington VSSF .308, late 90's with the HS Precision stock, stainless/flutted. I picked up for a song so I decided to give it a go. Topped it with a Leupold 4-12x40 Mark AR mil-dot I had...

    pre vs. post ban, AR's

    Can someone explain what the hype is about? I know what pre vs. post ban means as far as 1994 is concerned but why the hype now? My state has no ban, so to me, an AR is an AR is an AR. Date of manufacture doesn't mean anything in a legal sence here. I know there are collector differences for...

    Sears/High Standard mod 75

    After having shoulder surgery this year I decided I needed a light-recoil 20ga auto-loader for upland season (or at least that is the excuse I told the wife ;) ) Hitting pawn shops and used stores I found a nice, clean and functional example of a Sears/Ted Williams/High Standard mod 75...

    good, bad, ugly of Kentucky?

    So, we are seiously considering moving from Idaho to ??? One of the places catching our eye is Kentucky. For politics, we are straight up Libitarian with some leanings to Conservatism. The country side seems beautiful, housing seems decently priced. We are not worried about jobs as we both work...

    Gun buddy and I are on a road trip with our wifes a few towns over. While the wifes are looking thier places of interest, we google FFL dealers in this new town and do out own browsing. We walk into one that has a good supply of mil-surp ammo, reloading stuff and some gear. As we are browsing...

    UZI SBR build, almost done, waiting for form 1

    Say you are in the final stages of a folding-stock IMI Uzi build. You haven't sent off your form 1 yet. Do you; A) Buy a 16-inch barrel to use while you send off and wait for your form 1? B) Leave the 10-inch barrel in, not install the stock and leave it a pistol while waiting for your...

    FHE from Air Force FAC's, MP's, PR's Re: boots

    I could not think of a good place to ask this. But I know I would not get a straight answer out of the "other" big forums. If it needs moved, please, if it needs deleted/locked, so be it. Anyway, I am looking for Surplus boots to add not only to my collection but to stock up on, get a set of...

    Magpul AR10 mags, dust covers...

    Got a new AR10 this year. I have buying Magpull 20-rd mags for it. Each mag comes with a dust cover that snaps over the feed lips. While this may seem cool, they mostly just get in the way and are a pain in rapid re-load drills. While I like most Magpull "innovations" these seem like a...

    Sigtac CP4, FHE opinions please

    I am looking at different scope options. Want, 4x, lit reticle, ranging marks, able to use without batteries if need be, use on M4 and AR10. Since I can't afford a ACOG, I have been looking at others. I really like the Sigtac CP4. It meets everything I want to do. But at the store, I put...

    AR10, QD bases?

    Scoping an AR10. Currently have a Nikon 3x on it and while this works well in brush and most hunting out to 200 yards especially snap shooting, I would like to stretch that out a little. Thinking of a fixed 10x for bench and longer range hunting but would like to be able to swap the scope...

    Random thoughts, NFA registry and NFA deletion

    Random thought just rolled through my head though I am sure I am not the first to have this wish. Say for a moment, just a moment that someone with money, power and influence proposed legislation that would remove C&R weapons from the the NFA. I am talking guns that either have to be...

    AR 22lr sub caliber kit and mag compatibility

    I have a 22lr kit for my 1911 and love training with it. Thinking of getting one for my AR but am not sure about the mags. Most kits only come with one and they are stupid expensive to buy more. Every now and then I stumble on them in pawn shops, secondary market at decent prices. So my...

    ISO busted up Carcano M38 SR stock

    Like the title says, I got a Carcano M38 7.35 Short Rifle in a trade. All matching and in really good condition. Only problem is that someone cut the stock just in front of the rear band. The rest of the stock is in great shape and the numbers match the receiver. I have the hardware sourced. My...

    Advising pawn shop guys?

    So, you walk into your neighborhood pawn shop and you spot a rifle in the flavor you have particular interest and experience in. You ask to see it and upon inspection you notice it is an unregistered SBR and the guy recorded the wrong number as the serial number on the tag not to mention they...

    magazines, pre-ban vs. post-ban questions

    Pardon the silly question please. I live in a no-ban state so some of this seems odd to me. I was at the local gun show yesterday and came across a dude selling old GI (O-Kay Industries) STANAG mags. 30-rounders with black followers and in decent condition, just light use scratches on the...
