Hello,

I have a black KAC PVS30 from their refurb program. This unit is complete with the box and all paperwork as it left Knights. The price is $5500. Pictures are available for serious buyers. No trades.

Thanks!

If you were to send a barreled action to have some upgrades done would you direct ship it yourself or would you have an FFL do it? Also what carrier do you trust to do it?

Have work being done on the house through a GC as it is in many areas/different projects. No big deal.

We realize that we need some outdoor flooring re-coated/stained/sealed/whatever in the backyard as well as around the pool where we had new concrete put down after a tree started moving/growing through it. GC calls the contractor he usually uses for floor coatings, they give me a bid and at one point I ask about including my driveway into the bid as well. GC says he's just going to have us deal with each other as its a small and straightforward job and nothing for him to do or put anything into.

Fast forward a few weeks and it still hasn't started due mainly to all the rain we've been getting. In the meantime I tell the flooring guy that we won't do the driveway but to do the pool (most important) and the back patio area.

Get a text from the GC this past Friday that 'sand blasters are coming' Saturday. I'm like...ok, tell them to come in the back and do their thing.

Saturday sandblasting begins on the rear patio floor and after a few hours they're gone. I walk out the side of my house later that afternoon to go somewhere and notice.....the driveway looks to be sandblasted. I look around some more and....the pool area is NOT sand blasted. Right as I am about to call someone this guy that was apparently in charge of the sandblasting hobbles around the corner. I immediately tell him something isn't right and he's like, we did what we were told. Do the back, do NOT touch the pool, do the driveway. Nope...wrong order bud. I KNOW thats wrong because the pool was the A#1 thing that needed to be done and I had mentioned it 30 times.

He immediately starts getting a little tiff'd. I tell him I'll call the guy who called him for sub work on Monday and I guess we'll figure this out. Mind you, I never started with how he's not getting paid, or he fucked up, or any of that. It was - lets just wait and figure it out, it is what it is. He starts talking about 'his invoice' and I'm like...did you not hear what I just said? Plus you're subbed out, I don't want your invoice.

Monday rolls around. I call the main flooring guy and leave a voicemail. An hour later I get a call from....the sandblaster guy again. WTF?

Apparently he went by my house at 130 and I wasn't there. Uhh...for what? He was going to drop his invoice off for me. EL O EL

Who is this stupid?

First of all, I didn't hire you. I don't know you. I didn't schedule you. I haven't signed a single fucking thing.

Second of all, did we not have a conversation Saturday about this and what I was going to fucking do to see about working it out?

Third, who in the fuck in their right mind would pay you off some random ass invoice you drop off?

I'm like, my guy, I left your 'boss' a message. Haven't heard back.

He goes straight into high pressure used car sales pitches like how he needs to be paid for the work he did; yeah, great. It wasnt the work I authorized, so yeah, no.

Again, let me just figure this out in the next day or two with the guy who hired you and we'll get it sorted ok? Jesus. I'm trying to actually work on this with you guys.

He then goes straight to 'it sounds like I'm going to get dicked around on this by you. Im going to come by again with my invoice and if you dont pay it Im adding a 25% late fee and theres going to be problems'.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (breathe) problems? PROBLEMS? what problems you got for me? hahahHAHAHAhaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Ok so....I'm trying to figure this bullshit out and still get you paid and your response is to call and try and strong arm, scam and then threaten me? Bold strategy Cotton.

So I just ask....where in our contract does it state anything about that late fee?

I can hear the wheels in his inbred ass turning when he realizes - we never signed a single thing because I was still waiting for the flooring guy to come by, get a deposit, sign a scope of work and pick out stain colors. But he put it off because he was so far behind and it never happened.

We have absolutely ZERO fucking agreement at all, in any form at this point. And this is the route this tard wants to go with me?

Seriously? I could easily just tell everyone to lick my balls at this point and not pay anyone; there is no agreement to anything. Yet I've been the one wanting to figure this out from the get go.

The fuck?

Looking at the NX8 for a dedicated hunting scope for shots ranginging from 60 yards to 500 yards. Leaning toward the 4-32 since ive read the 2.5-20 can be finicky(eye box, etc..) Also, sfp will be my choice. Anyone using the nx8 as a dedicated hunting scope or wish you would have went a different route? Plan to purchase this week and hope to validate my choice from those already using one.

What do you guys think about the YETI style coolers? I need a new ice chest and am considering this style of cooler. Do they really keep ice for 4 days in 90* temps? Any recommendations?
Also, fuck joe biden

I watched half the YouTube video here on about the rich who are controlling the world...Rothschild, Bush, etc. Can't find it today. What thread was it in. Thanks.

I'm a person with lots of M4 experience but very, very limited experience with shooting anything beyond the 300-yard mark. I've done a little bit of long range shooting years past, though I consider myself only about half a step past starting fresh. I'm also a person who believes in buying good gear from the start and growing into it, rather than buying entry level stuff and then replacing it a year or two down the road (go big or go home). I have a Vortex Viper lying around the house somewhere (I don't know which version of it exactly, but I bought it about ten years ago), but I'm looking at getting something a little better for this.

I have an Accuracy International AT308 ordered that I'll hopefully be able to pick up this week sometime, and now I'm looking for a nice scope that I can both learn with and still be happy with five years from now.

Right now my eye is on a Nightforce ATACR 7-35x56, or possibly a Leupold Mk 5HD/Mk6 of one sort or another. I want something effective at the 1000-yard range or beyond (I realize my AT308 may not be perfectly suited for this distance, but I'm sure I'll at some point get something in .338 LM or .300 WM that can manage it better). Something rugged and durable would be ideal, a scope that can take bumps and shakes and even drops without much risk. Something that can be safely carried while attached to a rifle in a soft case in the back of a vehicle or carried on my own back. As far as conditions, it is frequently humid in the non-winter months here so if certain scopes are better at seeing through mirage, that'll be a big plus for them.

I'm a disabled veteran and so I believe I qualify for Nightforce's discount program, and I don't know what other manufacturers offer one. I'm aiming for something in the $2500-$3000 range after any applicable discounts are applied, though I'm willing to go as high as perhaps $3500 if I really have to.

All that said, what should I be looking at?

Probably know the answer to this, but hate junking a good barrel.

Have been shooting a lot the last few weeks and have really noticed my Bartlein M24 6BR barrel stringing vertically. Gun zeros perfect at 100yds and dope has been trued out to 1000 yds, hitting 600yd waterline for MV then 700, 800, 991yd waterlines for BC. Lapua brass, 29.8gr of Varget, berger 109s. Barrel has about 1500 rounds on it, but more in cooler months.

Shooting the last couple matches, several of which where smoking hot (Oklahoma last weekend was 100F+ with little shade). I am finding my barrel stringing vertically through a 10rd stage. For instance, 500 and 545yd stage with 10ea 10" circles from modified prone. Dead center on first, but shots 2-5 string perfectluly vertical and hit target hanger for final 5 shots.

Confirmed similar results out at 900 yds, approximately 0.4mil elevation change at 900yds. This was exaggerated but can be partly explained by mirage.

Plans this week are to heat test by:

1) confirm 0 at 100yds
2) rip off 10 rds at one paster, reload, 10 more at a second paster, and probably a 3rd mag at a 3rd.

Goal is to see if i get repeatable results and max vertical with a smoking hot barrel. Yes, i know this may be a bit hard on thr barrel but my barrels are consumables.

Im thinking I just got 'one of those barrels' because I have not seen this with any of my other Bartleins (not blaming by any means...sometimes you just get them). Any thoughts?

Thinking about picking up the LMT MWS LM8. Any downsides to this? Minus the slight mod needed for mlock rail sections.
Probably be a just a all round rifle, thinking about a 2.5-10 with a reddot on top

I think that they will keep on until they nail him on something. Sad, because Hillary and Joey should already be there

Looking for 105 hybrids have 500 dtacs I could trade.

They were converting these infernal places to rifle ranges.

While we are at it, ban skiing. The environmental disaster that is ski slopes and Chad and Muffy driving their Tahoe 1200 miles every weekend to ski… oh damn they are the worst planet destroyers of all.

More rifle ranges! Less goofy pants. I am all for it!

So last winter, had a chance to buy this out of England. Sight unseen. But from a 'reputable' dealer. And price was sort of off the charts low. That said, it had a small repaired crack in the stock and sleeved barrels, which both dramatically affect value. I also had no idea of mechanical condition, etc.

After 8 months of paperwork and import fun... Arrived. And while the 'disclosed' items were right on... it was a hodgepodge of 'other' items. Issues with single trigger. Barrels didn't break cleanly. Automatic ejectors not working. And the crack that was 'repaired' was re-cracked. And more extensive internally than first believed. Oh and the buttplate was extended and pinned/glued. And I assumed was owned by either an NBA player or Lurch. Because it was a good 1/2" too long.

But... it is a Thomas Boss & Co. made in 1902. Their new 'Racehorse' style as it was the sleekest, slimmest gun on the English market. And the fit, finish, engraving, etc. is amazing. So, off to the workshops at Schloss Nitrocellulose for the treatment... First time I've really torn down a London Best gun... but there ya go. Might as well dive in.

First issue, it was bone dry. Not sure why it was not lubricated and properly 'tuned' when the barrels were sleeved. But everything inside was dry. Lots of burrs. Things were hanging up. This gun led a hard life, apparently. But lots of careful work and I have the locks and trigger working right. Then got the ejectors working (messed up during the re-sleeving process, probably.)

Just thought you guys would like to see some pictures of the inside of a pretty cool old gun. One of the interesting things about Boss is that since they were founded c. 1820, they have produced just over 10,000 guns. So many details have been saved and recorded that we know just about everyone involved in making it. Joseph Brazier of "The Ashes" (his workshop name) made the locks. It was engraved by John James Sumner III the third engraver in a family of four master engravers dating back to 1809.

Anyway, just some cool pictures. Everything is hand filed, hand-fitted and hand-engraved.



Brazier supplied 'soft' actions for engraving and finishing.


Cleaned up and lubricated. And de-burred.


"The Ashes" was the name of Brazier's workshop in Wolverhampton. Company is still in business and makes barrels still.



And had to remove the old horn buttplate, which was over an inch thick. I sawed through the thick part with a bandsaw and then used a belt sander to thin the nice checkered horn plate to a more... presentable and better-fitting thickness. Then had to heat the 'thin' part of the plate that was glued and pinned to the stock. Yes, glued. So took a blowtorch to the horn (without getting flame on the oil finish!) and the glue let go enough to pry the remains of the plate off.

I have a couple of special screws ordered for the rear plate (just like the last one) and will final fit the checkered horn plate probably next weekend.


I also de-greased, spread and properly glued the stock crack(s) and hopefully they will hold. I think they will once I have the sideplates re-fitted. Re-Stocking this would be spendy... I don't want to go there!



Anyway, more pix to follow, but rather pleased with this gamble as I think the sweat equity is going to be well worth it. Not to mention, it's just a perfect field gun.

Cheers,

Sirhr

PS.... this gun, new cost just over 70 Pounds sterling in 1902. By comparison, a skilled engineer at that time would have been making about 110 pounds... a year. It was nice to be king!
