    How to put a barrel extension on a barrel

    Pictures? Large frame or small frame AR? Assuming an AR, assemblers don't mess with extensions 99.9999% of the time unless they happen to be machinists too and want to do the whole thing themselves. Because if it is indeed the extension you sheered off, unfortunately you're going to want to send...

    Compact Spotter considerations

    Some really great recommendations to consider, I so appreciate it. Now to break the golden rule, and actually ask the wife for the budget. =p

    Compact Spotter considerations

    I'm tired of lugging (and I do mean lugging) my spotter, which is more for bird watching I think. It's huuuge. Ok, so what do I need to be looking for? Cost is a factor. I was looking at the Bushy T series, but is there anything I should really consider around that as well? Thanks!

    Night Vision PSA: stolen tubes

    I'm backing away from this thread now, no sensibility in starting a bash fest.

    Night Vision PSA: stolen tubes

    Just a thought, and not to argue really, it's not the feds in question though. It's the corporation that employed the accused. Understandable for the situation you described, where Pvt Snuffy from the arms room has pocketed them. These weren't "stolen" from the .mil, at least thusfar, and they...

    Night Vision PSA: stolen tubes

    I just posted this over there. But I found the topic here first alerting me to the situation.

I just discovered all...

    Digital earbuds under $200?

    I've been using my trusty Sordins for years now, but it's a bit of a pain. As in headache. So, I've been looking around at the various buds. I was looking at the Axil GhostStryke with bluetooth, but is there anything else I should be looking at or you can recommend?

    Custom tikka vs. tikka t3x tac a1

    If your buying a rifle as a donor action, and going to spend $1800-2k total for a Bravo and a good barrel, then why not consider a PVA John Hancock. With that action you'll be able to change bolt faces out for various rounds, and not to mention having a proper custom barrel on it that you will...

    All this talk about dope cards, here's my solution to holding them!

    I bought a few of the others, they were made of plastic and always broke. MkM's looks much more solid and durable. =)

    Radio recommendations

    I was tired of replacing bubble pack radios every year. That should tell you something about them. The Icom's have actually saved me money despite the upcharge on the initial buy. Buy once cry once applies here. And really, they aren't too bad if you look around.

    Radio recommendations

    Couple of years ago I bought 4 Icom 4011's. Rugged, with excellent range despite trees and terrain. GMRS. Really great unit of high quality that I can't recommend enough.
