sold This is a copy of the 1965 Colt 607 carbine, with Colt optic copy, fore-runner of the CAR-15. It has an early collapsible buttstock that works by a latch on the butt. The upper is an Anchor Harvey forge MILSPEC A1 c7 upper receiver with an Olympic Arms 5.56 HBAR 16.5" barrel with the Colt moderator pinned and welded. The moderator is non-functional making this a non-NFA firearm. The bolt is a black nitrided Brownell's. The gun comes with a Brownell's retro 4x scope which is an outstanding and improved copy of the original Colt optic. The Retro 4x Carry Handle Optic sports a simple, intuitive fine duplex reticle, like the original, and an elevation turret with BDC (ballistic drop compensated) clicks that closely match modern .223/5.56 55gr and 62gr ammo. As its name indicates, the Retro 4x comes with an integral carry handle mount. The Anderson lower has a match trigger that has been upgraded with JP springs and breaks at 5.5 pounds and an original Vietnam era M16a1 grip. Triangular handguards with liner. The gun weighs 7.25 pounds and is 32" overall with the stock in the collapsed position. See pics with stock open and closed. The gun has been finished in a custom "battleworn" Cerakote. The gun comes with a carry strap sling, original Vietnam era Colt 30 round magazine, aluminum 20 round magazine, cleaning kit, and Vietnam era repro copy of PS magazine covering operation and maintenance of the M16. Shipped in a hardcase. $2100

I've got a special gun I'd like to have a 10x max scope on in a small footprint, basically I think the old NXS Compact 2.5-10x24 would be perfect but they are hard to find. Obviously I'm keeping my eye out for them, but considering what my other options are in a similar scope with that size objective and around the 8.8" length.

What options do I have? Anything out there comes close to the Nightforce 2.5-10x24?

Hello all,

I currently have a 16" 5.56 upper that I run an LPVO on. I am looking for something to get me a bit more mid-range capability (SPR). I currently have the 5.56 and a 6.5 Creed for calibers. I'd like to keep the barrel down to 18" if possible and will also eventually be shooting suppressed. No, I'm not expecting a quiet rifle, just tossing that out there if is relevant to cartridge selection. I kind of like the 6.5G because there is SOME bullet overlap with my Creed once I get set up to reload and I have shot one before that was really enjoyable. Beyond that, I've got basically nothing that ties me to that cartridge. My theoretical lineup is as follows:

0-400 AR-15 in 5.56
300-800 AR-15 in 6.5 Grendel (Or other)
600-1000 24" Bolt gun in 6.5 Creed

So, the fundamental question I would like an answer to is, am I on the right track with the Grendel, or should I be looking elsewhere?

Thanks!

This rifle was built for one of my father friends whom after completion never shot it. Blueprinted receiver, Shillen 1.200 straight pipe, Shillen trigger on a custom Walnut stock. The bore is in mint condition only having a box of factory Weatherby ammo through it. Rifle shot around 5/8 but I believe the rifle to be capable of much, much better results with different loads or some hands loads. Chamber is perfectly concentric to the bore, gunsmith’s work is impeccable. I have too many 30’s and just built a PRC so I will never shoot this.

Five people were stabbed with a knife while tubing on the Apple River in Somerset Saturday afternoon, the sheriff said.

A 17-year-old boy from Minnesota was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead, Knudson said.

The four other victims are hospitalized in critical condition, he said. Two victims were transported out of the hard-to-reach area by helicopter.


The suspect is a 52 yr. old engineer and is white, very white, as is pointed out in the report and a far Right wing gun enthusiast.
And boy, do they point that out. He even was pictured with an American flag.

Anyone watched it ? . The Old Man .. with, Jeff bridges and John Lithgow . Did not see it mentioned here ?
On the Season-1 , Was pretty unexpected quality and solid story line and a Good watch .
Only bad thing for me was absolute zero closure and you have to hold-over a year for season 2 for ending . And only one real Hokey scene, with a Mini Windrunner Covert pulled out of the trunk of car and shooting down a drone,...lol , but that why they call it fiction.
.

Wts a pvs 30 in excellent condition , works great, only used a couple times, FOM is 1929 $4500 obo . Not really looking for any trades, selling to fund racecar parts.
I'm listing this as a refurbished unit but I don't know for sure, I've had a few of these And it could possibly have been a new unit when purchased.

Why is there such a gap in the market for a reasonably priced weapon mounted laser range finder?? What’s preventing someone from putting the sig kilo 5k tech in a metal body with a pic mount?? The tech is there I just don’t get it and I want one that doesn’t cost as much as my entire weapon system

Really good read with some good info on advancements in new ball powder that solve the temp sensitivity issues of the past compared to extruded stick powder...its called "Accu Flat" and they say "This family of powders matches Hodgdon’s Varget, H4350, H1000 and Retumbo for charge weight, performance and temperature sensitivity. Initial reports from the industry indicate that this propellant also offers high levels of accuracy."

Looking forward to testing this new ball powder....would be great for Dillons

Aside from tech related chips, does anyone else have a good idea of what shortages we might see if China decides to go hot with Taiwan? They have been making some more direct threats lately.

Just got one this week. Didn't bring my Gen 2 to compare. The power ring is smooth, but parallax is stiff as hell. I wish the locking turrets locked in the up position firmer. Optics look great. The new turrets are easy to zero but there is a difference between the two. The elevation turret has more audible clicks. I was told the turret issue was resolved on these new ones.

I recently purchased 20 pieces of once fired Alpha OCD 6GT brass to supplement the 200 pieces (199 after sacrificing one piece to an AMP annealer) that I had purchased prior for my new 6GT barrel. I decided to load up the 20 pieces with a similar load, although different bullet, to my other pieces and "fire form" them to my chamber prior to annealing and adding to the rotation of my other 199 pieces. Those are all on their third firing after annealing after two firings since new. All was going well, see below, until the last 7-8 rounds fired. As you can see, the last seven rounds began to move down. I had the Magnetospeed attached and there was essentially no change in speed. My initial fear was 1. that there was a baffle strike, 2. Magnetospeed strike, or 3. the reticle in my scope had moved. I decided to take the rifle back to the range and shoot some rounds of known quality to see what I could find after inspecting the baffles on the suppressor and the Magnetospeed wand with no indication of any kind of strike.

Continued below pic.




After shooting the first five rounds, I was relieved to see that my zero had actually not changed and all looked good. Until I shot the second five rounds which seemed to move again. (see below). I continued with another five rounds after making minor adjustments to elevation and windage (after turning the turrets a few rotations and returning them to the 'new' zero) and the group tightened back up but moved to where I had adjusted. Then I returned my turrets to the old "zero" and all was well again for the last two groups of five rounds.

So, what's going on? Is it just me and my POI changing due to slight adjustment for the different target via Chris Way's POA/POI change due to different angle of sight from the shooter? I've always noticed a slight change of POI with the different dots in the past as well. I've 'decided' that it was due to the slight angle of change in POA due to not moving my position, just adjusting the rifle on the bench, again via Chris Way's observations/teachings.

Up for grabs. Excellent condition. Bought here a month ago for a build that ain't happening.
Comes with Larue SPR 1.5 quick detach mount. Put it on my air rifle to get a feel for it then back in the box. (Included also). Vortex bubble, throw lever and Aadmount flip ups.
Asking $1275 shipped f/f or add fees.
Thanks
