    Griffin two position adjustable gas block

    I bought my tap and vented set screws from Mcmaster car. Take a grinder and remove the rear threads on the tap so it clears the bottom hole as you thread the top. I also rounded the tap point to allow me to get deeper through the hole. Now the shortest setscrews will thread all the way up and...

    Compact 3-12x

    Discovery Optics, Westhunter and a few others are the same scope so if you don't like the reticle in one, check with the other brands and see if one suits you more.

    Compact 3-12x

    Have one as well that I used on my high end air rifles. Scope works pretty well and glass is decent. I took it off due to weight as I found a few of the old Weaver MidwayUSA tactical 3-10 scopes for cheap. They were the best $200 Japanese made scope with resetable turrets, mildot reticle and...

    Leveling a scope

    Learned it from the Air Rifle crowd. Still have to do some test shots. I have come across some where the scope is not parrallel to the barrel and so close up shots (10 yds) hit to the side of point of aim, zero distance (25 yds) hits point of aim, and behind zero distance (50yds) hits to the...

    Leveling a scope

    I just mount the gun up in a tripod and look through the scope while facing a mirror. Turn the scope body till the reticle falls straight through the center of the muzzle and equally through the turrets and it is good to go.

    Rifle Scopes Is there a market for a good MPVO

    Look forward to hearing your results. Thinking this would be a good match for an old Savage 10FP .308 I have in an XLR stock but looking to make it more of a shorter lighter barrel setup.

    Still contemplating a savage 10fp in 308.

    Pull that stupid accu trigger lever out of it. A buddy bought one and we had several dead trigger shots if you don't pull it just right. Mine is a pre accu trigger 10FP and I dropped an SSS adjustable trigger in. We pulled his accu trigger paddle and it all still works the same, it just goes off...

    Rifle Scopes Is there a market for a good MPVO

    I would have bought one to try but the damn 34mm tube and no weight savings over my Viper 2-10 gen 2 already. Plus the cost of a new mount since I can't use the old one. Have been watching for a 2-10/12 with good field of view, lower profile locking turrets, and decent weight savings for a while...

    LaRue MBT is still an option at $115?

    You can find the Larue triggers at a lower price than that. I have several and use the heavy trigger spring for a faster reset on game guns and lighter trigger spring for precision guns. Hard to beat for the price.

    Primary arms 1x6

    CMMG Radial Delayed 9 mm - First trips

    Keep track of round count. The spring ejector AR bolt style have a life span of about 300-500 rounds before ejection goes down the toilet. The spring tunnel for the ejector will be full of gunk and the spring will be too short to eject the shell. They will send an extra strong spring and it will...

    CMMG Radial Delayed 9 mm - First trips

    New fixed ejector or old style spring ejector on the bolt? Reliability will be effected if it is the old spring ejector.

    Rifle Scopes Lightweight short range hunting optic?

    The Vector is really starting to sway me with all its features. Trying to find a 2-10 or 1.5-9 for a mid range AR to replace my Viper gen 2 2-10 since the turrets are huge and do not lock. Vector has locking turrets and the GPO 1.5-9x44 has capped turrets and the only one in that line with a mil...

    Vortex Razor LHT 2-10?

    Yeah I was looking at the Viper HD 2-10 with capped turrets but only has the crappy BDC reticle also.
