    Range Report Question about temperature affecting ballistics ....

    what are your thoughts on boots?

    I have to put a vote towards Hanwag - I got the HanWag Special Forces GTX (Gore-Tex®) Boots and they're something special - walking round in deep mud is a lot easier with the tread that these boots have. They are so well insulated that I've stood in snow up to my ankles for a whole morning, and...

    Suppressors Overbarrel suppressor

    Re: Overbarrel suppressor I know from experience that on a direct thread moderator after it's been fired quite a few times the moderator can become loose and this will affect the accuracy of the rifle - in my case quite substantially. Not sure if it's as much of an issue if indeed an issue...

    Why is Arc' Teryx so damn expensive?

    Re: Why is Arc' Teryx so damn expensive? Out of interest is there any (valid) reason why Arc'Teryx restrict sales of their LEAF product to LE/GOV/MIL ? I can see that it looks to be a well thought out product, but can't see an item of clothing having features which would restrict it in sales...
