Are we out-of-love with "underslung" bipods?

Are we out-of-love with "underslung" / apex-over-bore bipods?

Seems like on podcasts circa two years ago, all the recommendations were for having the bipod apex over bore.

Then came the Ckye-pod, taken up by the comp guys, and the TBAC bipod, adopted by the cool guys who didn't want to look like the comp guys. ;)

I get that the Elite Iron is a beast and mostly good for prone.

But there's almost no discussion of the Tier One Evolution bipod, for example.

Have we foresaken the benefits of "underslung" bipods for the two new cool bipods on the block?

Or did apex-over-bore not matter as much as people thought it first did?

Or is everyone who wants apex-over-bore just using Atlas CALs? (I admit I find them ugly and their list of options does my bear-of-little-brain head in ...)

Or am I just missing something entirely here?

Firearms M40A1 with lots of cool extras !BIG AND FINAL PRICE DROP . LAST CHANCE AT 6K

Here is what some consider to be the "holy grail" of sniper rifles! The rifle was built at Texas brigade armory by Mike Lau with all the correct parts to include.....
U.S stamped 6 digit 27xxxx clip slotted action
Parts all stamped with last digits as they should be
Real unertl scope base
Schneider 7.62 marked barrel

Wichita swivels with 2 slings mrt86 and another new armscor leather sling.
Unertl mst100 10x t0268 glass is really nice and scope functions as it should with all manuals and instructions .
I have all the scope tools and a ton of different as well as a brand new buttplate,scope caps, cleaning kit with marbles rod, a tube data book and lots of other hard to find manuals for the optic and rifle.
I absolutely love this rifle ! It is a friggin hammer and a joy to own and shoot once in while ! The rifle is all correct and has been inspected by a a former 2112 as well as a few school trained guys on this rifle system. There have been many offers of some sort but I just like the rifle and always just said "na man".
Well here she is .....
I would like to get $7500 for everything and I believe the some of what is here is well worth that. Round count is 287 and will include the little impact book as well. Feel free to call or text me with any questions as I will probably be able to respond quickly.

Another 20 million barrels from SPR gone

Fucking Bidet.
He's dumping another 20 million barrels from the strategic oil reserve.

That there is some fucked up shit.

Multi-purpose platform - DTA?

Okay, I want some thoughts on this.

I have a .300NM that I love, I just don't get to shoot it much and really stretch it out where I live. I love the cartridge, would love to have a barrel in that cartridge, but with how limited it gets shot I'm unsure if having a dedicated rifle for it makes much sense.

I'm also getting into hunting. Don't currently have the funds to build a dedicated hunting rifle (not to my spoiled standards), so I've compromised and purchased an 18" 3B contour barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor. For hunting, I will place that Mausingfield barreled action into a KRG Bravo to save weight. Not a perfect scenario, but can't build up a dedicated rifle so it will do for now.

This has me thinking - why not consolidate the two rifles that don't get used as much as my other rifles? The only platform that I'm aware of that could do this and still maintain *somewhat* of a reasonable weight for hunting is the DTA. It's been a while since I've handled a DTA, but I didn't mind it (didn't shoot it though). The ergos are quirky with the bullpup, and I know the mags aren't the best. But this solution allows me to turn two rifles into one, which makes sense given my economic situation.

Would love to hear thoughts from the crowd on this. The DTA system seems to have lots of detractors, and a small and very loyal fan base. There's lots of nuances to it, people love it or hate it.

Is my idea a good one, or is it stupid?

Rimfire scopes and specific questions

I'm looking for a scope to stick on my new CZ 22. Area 419 30 moa rail should be here in a couple hours, so I think any low rings I want should clear just fine with a 50-56mm objective. Is that right?

I was primarily looking at the strike eagle but saw that once the zero stop is installed the travel is limited. Anyone have a strike eagle on a 30 moa rail sword at 50 yards? Does it even need a zero stop or will it be in the first revolution anyway?

Also interested in the midas tac 5-25, but can't find anything about limiting up travel once the zero stop is in. Big Jim seemed to think it was a good compromise on everything.

I've got mostly vortex and athlon glass, so I've mostly been looking at those, but I'm open to pretty much anything. Trying to stay in the $6-800 range with the following features.

34mm tube for elevation adjustment
5-25 ish power: 5-30, 4-24, whatever
Don't give a damn about illumination
2/10 mil tree reticle, 5/10 mil in a pinch
Locking/capped windage would be cool
10 mils per rotation
Short parallax minimum, 15-25 yards


Obviously this is not going to be fantastic glass, but its only gonna go to 300 or so seriously. Longer stuff will be just for fuckery

Where's My Working Dog Guys At?

OK, so I know that what I am after is not likely to be available, but I've never been afraid to ask a silly question... I'm fairly sure we have some folks who are in the know about professional working (protection) dogs here on the site. I know that these dogs are the product of years of love, blood, sweat, and tears from their breeders/trainers. This post is not intended to show any disrespect towards nor devalue those efforts.

I am simply not in a place to spend tens of thousands of dollars for a "varsity' canine. So, the question is - are there JV dogs out there that would suffice for me and my family. I understand that many times these dogs retire and their handler assumes ownership, but are there retired dogs that would, perhaps, work for me? I'm looking for a protective companion for my wife and two girls. Someone to go running with them, and accompany them on solo hikes, etc.

Any wisdom from the 'Hide is appreciated.

And in this week's episode of controlled opposition...

I have wondered what this piece of shit is up to, now we know. Seemingly committing political suicide with her off Broadway performance of DJT Syndrome, Part II - Political Theater for the Criminally Retarded. It seems she has bigger plans. I guess the real money in politics is in campaign funds. Maybe she is the new sacrificial lamb, like McStain, the newest media darling. Maybe Kinzinger can be her running mate. She can peg him from coast to coast.

So I was researching sheriffs stations......

I'm in Socal. L.A. County. I was at gunshop over the weekend and was talking to the owner and he said getting a ccw is not that hard anymore in Cali. We are now shall issue supposedly. So I was reading reviews of sheriffs stations cause i did not want to run into a dick. Saw a review bitching about a deputy and supposedly a video of said deputy and why he should be fired. Hmmm so I google the dudes name and what pops up is his salary :eek: So I did a little more digging and this came up.....


Go ahead and click there are much higher salaries.....is this the norm?
