    bghartm was a great seller. I bought an NX8 from him. He had gret communication and worked with me on a price we both could live with.

    Friend died while waiting for suppressors, need help

    It all comes down to who paid for the suppressors. Typically, we pay for our suppressors with personal money and then wait for the purchase to be approved by BATFE before the item goes into the trust. If the check or credit card had the name of the Trust on it, then that is where the refund...

    Thanks. That's what I needed to know.

    Gunsmithing Cerakote: Blasting vs. Sanding

    I want to try my hand at Cerakoting - more for the learning and experience than anything else. Always been a bit of DIY in me. Trying to keep the costs down. Already spent a lot on the paint, sprayer and home-made oven. Is it absolutely necessary to blast the parts, or can I get by with...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron SIII VS. ?

    I own one Sightron SIII and will soon be adding a second one for a new build. Exceeded my expectations. No issues in first two years of use.

    Night Vision $1500 budget for a hog scope

    You won't get much in the way of a dedicated scope. You could go the NV monocular route, but they are very recoil sensitive. You should be OK if you stick with 5.56 or suppressed 300 Blackout. Still, $1,500 won't get you much more than a grade B tube in an older PVS-14 housing. You might be...

    New to rifles in Arizona

    I thought the PRGC only had ranges that went out to 500 yards. Are you shooting somewhere else?

    New to rifles in Arizona

    Welcome, friend. There is a cadre of long range shooters here in AZ - but we are kind of spread out. For one, I would like to see us form some kind of club or organized shoot (maybe on a quarterly basis) to share our passion. I suspect we are all just a little too busy to pick up that ball...

    Stiller Tac 30 group buy??

    The last group buy was well over a year ago. So many got in on it that it swamped Stiller and deadlines were pushed out. It really jammed them up and shipments were delayed - something that Stiller wanted to avoid. I don't think it was something Stiller wants to repeat again any time soon...

    Teludyne Tech StraightJacket

    Just finished up my research on this. I would like to try their system out - but at $700+ they have priced me out of the market. I thought it would be beneficial to do a before and after test on a sporter-barreled rifle I have. I would have been willing to gamble $400 or so on their claims...

    Am I asking too much, or does nobody shoot 338s anymore?

    LRH was the first site that I thought of. The 338 Norma has quite a following there. I know there are currently a couple big 338's for sale over there, but you have a great rig at a reasonable price. Best of luck to you. You might also try Long Range Only It's a newer site with only a small...

    Am I asking too much, or does nobody shoot 338s anymore?

    I also suspect timing has something to do with it. The market in general seems to have slowed down a lot. Hangover from Christmas binge; tax refund not as much as expected; continued uncertainty in the economy/marketplace; future worry about cost & availability of ammo and reloading...
