    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine Well since it seems my price range was too limiting, I asked my wife for a 4Sevens Maelstrom MM-X for Christmas. Good choice?

    Rifle Scopes 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each?

    Re: 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each? I don't shoot competitions, but to be honest, it just sounds like a PITA all the way around. However, the instructor seems like an INCREDIBLY knowledgeable guy. I have always felt that the Bushnell Elite 4200 and 6500 scopes were great...

    Rifle Scopes 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each?

    Re: 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each? Thanks for the great input guys. I'm actually feeling pretty conflicted about this. I completely agree with Sentry1 about the Larue mounts. I have owned them in the past, and didn't like them either. I wasn't using it for the...

    Rifle Scopes 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each?

    Re: 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each? Thanks for the sarcasm VJJ - it is obvious that you would write down what the windage and elevation are for the zero on each gun. My question is more pertaining to how people like to keep track of it, and if they prefer to have one...

    Rifle Scopes 1 Sweet scope for all, or 1 decent scope for each?

    Hey guys, I have an interesting question to ask. I have been watching the Magpul Dynamics videos on precision rifle shooting. The instructor suggested that instead of owning one decent scope for each rifle you own, buy one TOP quality scope in a high quality quick detach mount and use it on all...

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine Wow, I am actually EXTREMELY intrigued by that Inforce light. I love the idea of the ergonomics. However, when it says "momentary ONLY" does that mean you have to keep your thumb on the button the entire time? I don't think I would want that, I think I would want...

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine I am very intrigued by the bored out Surefire idea. Rechargeable batteries definitely seem like the way to go to me. Thanks for the excellent info SOCAL! MP15 - Thanks for the links as well. I actually read the article Henry wrote about designing the caving...

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine Wow, those HDS lights sure are intriguing, but unfortunately that is definitely out of my price range. Also, I don't need anything fancy, I just want a good light that will hold up under recoil. Thanks for the additional comments on the surefire's as well. It...

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine I am definitely going to give the Surefire lights a good hard look. Any other brands that have lights in a reasonable price range that are good?

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Re: Weapon Light for Carbine Yes, I am pretty sure that at least the Olight's are made in China. They make weapon mount brackets for those as well as the Fenix lights. I assumed that this meant they would hold up under recoil, but that was actually part of my concern. Will these less...

    Weapon Light for Carbine

    Hey guys, I'm in the market for a decent weapon light. I don't have a lot of money at present, so I'd like to be able to use it as a separate flashlight for camping, etc. as well. There seem to be nearly endless options out there, and I need help narrowing them down. I'd like to spend about...

    Photos The Start of My Bug Out Kit

    Re: The Start of My Bug Out Kit I agree that you have missed what the intended purpose of a BOB is. Check out this video by one of my favorite firearms instructors, James Yeager. He will get you started in the right direction. Incidentally, I use the same pack (an Eberlestock Gunslinger II)...

    Re: Glock 1911!!!!! Yes, I have been seeing this pic floating around for at least a few years. I had not however, seen the fake cheaperthandirt article before. My favorite part: "GLOCK cannot build complete guns quickly enough to meet demand due to the 2012 Lanyard Loop Shortage, of which we...
