    Hat Tip to SilencerCo CS

    Admitting some boneheadery on my part last weekend, I stuck my SilencerCo Omega on my PRS match rifle for the first time in a while with intention to shoot that Regional match suppressed in preparation for the Pro Series/AG Cup match this coming weekend which is "Suppressor ONLY." Shooting...

    Ruger SFAR Drop

    I had not heard of this one until today - anyone seen and pre-production reporting on these? Looks like Ruger is entering the DPMS Gen2 market: https://ruger.com/products/sfar/models.html

    Direct Keymod weapon light

    I’m looking for a more svelte weapon light for my already-less-than-svelte Maxim 9. The suppressor includes 3 Keymod slots, which allows a pic rail and light attachment, but it’s a bulky eyesore when so mounted. Looking for a direct Keymod mount light. But I’m unwilling to 1) pay $500 for said...

    Undeniable Borescope diagnosis

    Polling the peanut gallery for experiences here... What problems have you undeniably and by no other means identified and been able to solve because of a bore scope? The common context: a rifle which shot well, no longer will. Guys run a borescope and see copper fouling or a washed leade, and...

    JJFitch Request: 20 steps to achieve sub MOA at 300 yards

    Avoiding a derailment in another thread, I’m hoping the due conversation can be delivered here: @JJFitch commented in another thread the following, but when asked to elaborate and extol the “at least 20 steps,” he referenced, he respectfully pointed out discussing further in that thread would...

    Remington dismantlement described

    I haven’t seen this linked here yet, and others may find it as intriguing as I. Here’s the list of Remington brands and their respective successful bidders, and back-up bidders, pending confirmation and acceptance by the courts in the coming week(s): Vista Outdoor, Inc. as the Successful...

    Gun wax testing, and Gold Standard

    A relatively excitable and nearly pushy product inventor/owner is sending me some samples for a gun wax product (effectively a carnauba car wax, best I can tell), asking for review. I’m not a Ren wax fan, as many others are, but I’d like to give a proper test for this product. So what else...

    Seeking: Rem 121 Ejector Plunger Assy

    I’ve rang all of the normal bells, ebay, Numrich, Wisner’s, GB, but these seem to be hen’s teeth. Short of buying a parts rifle (which likely ALSO has a broken plunger assy), I’m taking a long shot here. I may end up reverting it to a 12 style spring rather than the plunger design of the...

    Iver Johnson Thread

    Taking a long shot here, and it’s largely irrelevant now, but would anyone happen to know the thread pitch for an Iver Johnson Champion stock bolt? Is it really 1/4-24? I measured the major diameter at .2450” and 24 tpi with a pitch gauge. But I’m surprised to see 1/4”-24. I also ran it through...

    Bushnell Lil P?

    Anyone using this little Prism sight? I was looking for another Sig Romeo for one of my pistols, but stumbled upon a deal for the Lil P, and considering my astigmatism, for its size and cost, it has my attention. As good or better than Sig Romeo5 or Bushnell TRS-25, is what I’m hoping for, not a...

    Food 4 Thought Friday: Defensive AR’s

    Just a fun thought experiment at close of business on a Friday. I don’t usually indulge this type of silly stuff, but a conversation about business operational risk management versus inventory cost management today - for some reason - hit me squarely upside of my “gun brain,” and I thought it...

    High country shelter silly notion

    A curious notion passed my mind planning an early season mulie trip this fall. I’m a bit of a minimalist hike/pack camper, so in fair weather, I usually sleep in a bivy sack and don’t haul a tent. Hunting, I typically take a 2 man double wall tent to shelter my gear in with me. Kinda thinking...

    6mm AR/243 LBC 105 Hybrid data? 103 ELD?

    Anybody have a pet load for their 243 LBC (or 6mmAR) they like, using the 105 Hybrid or 103 ELD? I’m expecting 8208 to be high on my list, Hornady and Lapua brass.

    Instinctive Laser Security 9?

    Anyone know of an instinctive activation laser for the Ruger Security 9? I don’t see anything out there from normal makers. Any reviews on the pistol in general? From what I have seen, they are accurate and reliable, using the LCP II high positive sear angle but with the terrible LC9 manual...

    Prometheus Arms Company?

    Anyone have any work done by Prometheus Arms Company out of Texas? I’m considering them to install (thread, chamber, muzzle thread) a new barrel for one of my match rifles, checking around for any news, good or bad.

    Disappointing Customer Service

    I picked up a gift certificate at a club level Precision Rifle match this spring for $100 off on a Huber trigger, good through July 31. So I called today to order, John himself answers the phone, and I mentioned I wanted to order the trigger on the certificate - which says to ask for "Diz". He...

    Happy with a Quick Turn!

    Mailbox to mailbox 129 days on another SBR Form 1. Mailed March 6, received July 13. I sent an E form Form 4 the same day, but my Class III is closed until Tuesday. Hoping it’s there too. Very surprised the old form went through faster, or at least as fast, as the E Form 4.

    Super Hero Customer Service - Black Hole Weaponry

    I had a bit of a roller coaster this week on a barrel order for a customer, but because of fantastic customer service from Black Hole Weaponry, it ended up better than I could have imagined - and I want to give credit where credit is due. I bought my first Black Hole Weaponry barrel about 4yrs...

    Laser Training with Revolver: Missing thread?

    I was on an airplane within the last couple weeks and recall reading a thread where the topic included using laser dry fire training aides, but then the conversation took a left turn when someone mentioned it's not possible in a snubby revolver, since you'd have to buy 5 or 6 (or more) laserlyte...
