    How did LE set-up thier leverguns for duty in the old days?

    Fair enough question that has mostly been answered above but I shouldve been more clear with what I had in mind when I asked that. What calibers were commonly used? Were slings or sheaths common? Did they use ammo carriers? If so, how were they carried? What modifications were common with...

    Expectations and disappointments

    Nope, I sell the disappointments as quickly as possible. The worst disappointments being an Arsenal 106 and Bushmaster ACR.

    Philosophy of extra magazines

    Eh I use to be pretty stuck on high capacity whenever choosing a firearm but I shoot revolvers best, that means I usually just go with whatever fits my mood. Therevis an advantage to a higher capacity lighter recoiling gun but that hardley changes the fact that you should shoot what you use...

    How did LE set-up thier leverguns for duty in the old days?

    Thank you for that response. Definitely cleared up some questions and misconceptions I had. Considering I am just a hair over 30 years old the era of Bill Jordan,Charles Askins, Skeeter Skelton etc is long gone so I never had very much exposure to this sort of stuff. Even the books from these...

    Question on AR platform, DI vs piston

    I would go with a DI AR. While it does have a gas piston I know what you're asking and LWRC or PWS would be the best bet there, imo. I hear good things about POF too but not first hand really. For the price of a piston you can get a nicer DI. What is your budget? For serious use stuff I like...

    Have you ever had a rifle you didn't like?

    Yep, a few. Last one was an Arsenal 107 that was out of spec. I've had a few though. The Bushmaster was the biggest let down, bought it for around $2200, the barrel kept loosening up and it started jamming a lot.

    Aero Precision vs PSA premium?

    I remember Aero having a much better finish but I am going to rattle can my rifles soon so that is irrelevant, for me. I like PSAs BCG better too , considering I use Toolcraft whenever I buy BCGs by themselves. I dont remember accuracy being bad with either one , Aero uses Ballistic Advantage...

    I have owned both in the past and dont remember much of a difference but I have heard rumors that PSA has been having some QC issues lately. Has anyone here bought any rifles from these two companies lately? I am looking for a beater rifle for carbine courses, plinking ,etc. This rifle will...

    QD end plate vs Stock for sling attachment point?

    Good advice in this thread :thumbup: . I have a proctor paracord sling somewhere in my pile of gear im not using lol. I tried running a single point sling in carbine course and theres a reason its called a ---- banger sling, I did not care for it at all.
