    Southern Precision Rifles . Any thoughts ?

    I had them do a .308 barrel for my AI/AT. Fast service and excellent communication even during these crazy times. Barrel is proving to be exceptionally accurate. Completely positive experience and I highly recommend them.

    Duplicating AI Trigger Feel?

    Since I acquired my AI/AT, I've discovered that I shoot it better than any other rifle I own. While I know the stock AI trigger isn't a match trigger I love it. I'd like to try duplicating that feel in one of my Remington 700 builds. What's the best aftermarket Remington 700 trigger to use to...

    Installation Question - Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mount and Thumb Rest

    Successfully completed the installation of both the thumb rest and spigot mount. I didn't use heat on the cups at first, but applying heat to the flush cups made all the difference. I borrowed my neighbor's heat gun and hit the cups - didn't take much. AI put a lot of thread locker in there...

    Installation Question - Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mount and Thumb Rest

    I was having problems with both the front and rear cups. I'd heard they could be a little tough, but they were a lot tougher than I expected! I got the rear cups removed last night and installed the thumb rest - at that point i declared victory and called it a night. And you're right, there...

    Installation Question - Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mount and Thumb Rest

    I'll definitely keep trying. I won't be able to leave it alone until I get it to work or break something trying.

    Installation Question - Anarchy Outdoors Spigot Mount and Thumb Rest

    I just bought a thumb rest and a spigot mount for my Accuracy International AT from Anarchy Outdoors. I checked out their installation videos and the job looked easy - until I tried to remove the flush cups. I'm having zero luck removing them so far. I've reached out to their customer...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Anyone use an Atlas Super CAL on an AT? I'm thinking of picking one up for my AT and I'd love to see a picture of what the rifle looks like with the Super CAL mounted. Not for PRS style matches, will be used for prone shooting such as informal mid-range F-Class. I've been through this thread...

    My Rimfire Wheelguns

    Those look great. What mount did you use for the DPP on the 617? I'm thinking about mounting a red dot on a 986 and I like the way that one looks.

    Gunsmith for NFA Firearm Restoration

    To make a long story short, my wife recently inherited two Ithaca Auto Burglar guns that originally belonged to her grandfather. We actually found an old newspaper photo of him carrying one of them in his patrol car back in the 50's when he was a Sheriff in NC. That's the good news, the bad...

    which scope for my Bergara 14R

    I also have the Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 (MRAD) on my Bergara. I've been really impressed with the scope. Optically, I can't really see any difference between it and my PST Gen II 5-25.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns CZ EVO magazine question

    In my experience they are just as reliable as CZ magazines. I've had no issues with mine to date.

    Rifle Scopes Which Spuhr for AI AT?

    I have a new AI AT rifle on the way (Christmas present from my wife!) and I'm shopping for a Spuhr mount to use on this rifle. The rifle is a 6.5 Creedmoor with the 24" barrel and has the AI 20 MOA low action rail installed. I plan to use the rifle primarily out to 1200 yards or so. And I...

    OWB Holster for Concealed Carry?

    I've really tried to like IWB holsters, but I have to confess that I usually default to carrying a Glock 43 or a S&W 442 in a pocket holster. I know carrying a gun is supposed to be comforting versus comfortable, but I just can't come to terms with...
