    Scope Suggestions for .22LR

    Check out Primary Arms web site they make a rimfire scope with a ranging reticle calibrated for cans, bottles, squirrels and crows I think. Plus it has windage for 5 mph marked. Good reviews. I think I will buy one the next .22 scope I get.

    Magnifier and red dot placement

    Not being a huge fan of Red Dots I prefer my Lucid HD-7's, PA makes an awesome prismatic for the money, I'm also getting one of their 4-14X44's. My 5X Prismatic is great, and all the research I can find says they make quality products at an excellent price. Personally I prefer etched glass that...

    Brother in Massachusetts wants AR

    So if I've got it right, I can use a new upper and lower, free float four rail, pinned and welded muzzle brake, fixed butt? I wish I hadn't beat my head on the wall now. I can't believe what has been done to our once great nation! Thank you all for your input.

    I've got some spare parts that I can use to configure an AR-15 for my bro if we can figure out what is legal or if it is at all? He lives in Springfield, and has his carry liscense. I can do a carbine or pistol. Can any of you folks please help. I am trying to get him to move to Utah where we're...

    Utah Constitutional Carry Passed Senate Then Stalled.

    There were plenty of votes to pass it, if you count the number that voted for it there were enough to override. I guess there's some stigma to overriding a veto of a Govenor of your own party. I guess that could be politically unhealthy. I have been asked to dig in to and help out with NAGR and...

    Utah Constitutional Carry Passed Senate Then Stalled.

    For the third year Constitutional Carry Failed to make it. This year it made it through the senate and probably had enough to override the Govenor if he chose to veto. Two years ago it was first introduced by rep. Oda, in the house. It passed both houses by 2/3's then the Gov. Vetoed it. Dudley...

    I found something interesting

    Maybe that book is where discovery channel got the idea for the show "Alaskan bush People" from it's about the Brown family 4 or 5 adult boys, sort of, and 2 girls. Mom and Dad. The most bizzare family that supposedly has lived in the wilds of Alaska for 30 years, so strange my wife and I can't...

    Replacing the LEOPA; Something for Everyone

    I have no problem with measures to protect the law enforcement members from the idiots out there. None of us will trust politicians after what the meaning of the word "is" is. Maybe some sort of panel made up of law enforcement, lawmakers, citizens, active Military, NRA. Better yet keep it out...

    Replacing the LEOPA; Something for Everyone

    In some respects I agree, except that right now POTUS is jabbing Congress and every Freedom loving Intelligent American Citizen in the eye with a sharp stick, and he keeps finding creative ways to do it. Now he's going to the great UN to prevent the Senate from ratifying a secretive Treaty with...

    Sporting use of 5.56 Green Tip

    I don't want to get in the middle of private thing but I've got to tell you the instant I saw the sig brace I wondered how BATFE let this get by. What an easy way to have that SBR. Surely the BATFE aren't smart enough to think of this as an actual plan. Great consiracy theory though, maybe I'll...

    Sporting use of 5.56 Green Tip

    I, like Dr T have followed a lot of this, I have other loads and guns for bad guys, hunting and shooting tiny little groups of holes. However as far as the 2A goes my wife and I and our 3 veteran sons, all have some M855's and would like to continue to buy surplus Heavy Ball which by the way...

    Now is the time to push Congress

    I think this would be the time to keep the pressure up to get at minimum Ball ammo recognized for what it is, Ball, not AP. Wouldn't it be nice too if they were to repeal 1934, 1968 and more. After all the 2A only has it's original teeth with at minimum those two groups of laws gone, as unlikely...

    BATFE proposes to ban SS109 & M855 ammunition for civilian sales.

    I can't remember why they wanted to develop the M855A1 other than to be lead free, it does seem to fit into the BATFE incorrect classification of Armor piercing easier, is it still being issued? I recently ordered M855 that had a 2013 date, is it still being produced or is 855A1 replacing it...

    BATFE proposes to ban SS109 & M855 ammunition for civilian sales.

    In my letters to BATFE and everyone else, I point out how M855/SS109 was missclassified as AP, included the AP definition. The NATO and U.S. 5.56 classifications which all clearly spelled out each version of M855 Green Tip, 856,855A1,etc. they all said Heavy Ball, for use in the M16A2 and SAW...

    BATFE proposes to ban SS109 & M855 ammunition for civilian sales.

    A few years back I was taking an upper level technical writing class and was talking with the instructor about writing to congressmen, nothing to do with the class, he said that I should print the letter on high quality paper with a laser printer and to sign the letter myself. Even though email...

    ATF proposes to reclassify M855/SS109 green tip as armor-piercing ammo

    I've read through all of these, and recall friends and even relatives looking at me like I had a problem for having an AR. "What do you need one of those for you can't hunt with them". I wonder now if any of them understand what the real purpose of the 2nd is. " to insure the government is...

    ATF proposes to reclassify M855/SS109 green tip as armor-piercing ammo

    Yes this is an infringement on our 2nd amendment rights. Yes BATFE has already decided to ban M-855. Yes congress has written a letter objecting. Congress should repeal the gun control act of 1968 and every other unconstitutional law it has passed that has eroded our 2nd amendment. M-855 Green...
