    Tac Ops Drag Bag Question

    Chris, I have a TO and I have a Triad bag. To get the same features in totality - you'll spend the same amount . . . give or take. TacOps - $325-ish, comes with backpack straps, shooting mat, lots of pockets, will last you through two Zombie apocolypse battles. I treated my first...

    Muzzle brake question

    Andrew, I ordered my rifle from Charlie and have his muzzle brake on my 300WM. It shoots WAAAY more mild than my heavy barrel .308 w/out a brake shot. Score High Gunsmithing, Muzzle brakes,Cerakote, Bedding Epoxy and Pillar Bedding kits Nice guy, quality product. My 300WM is a pleasure to...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Preferred Pistol Sight Picture

    I'm a #2 guy in the examples given by OP. For me it's the mental connection of "dot on target - BOOM!" I understand the #1 sight pic for bullseye shooters and all iron(no white dots) in the sights. #3 would be a trip to asylum to get used to it. NOT saying it's bad, in the end, it's how you...

    Sniper School - practical equipment help question

    THANK YOU ALL - for your replies. The class is put on my TFTT. To have a sniper school come my way is not common, especially in a window of time that works for my life and schedule! I will contact the instructor again to alleviate my equipment nervousness. As one of you noted and I tried to...

    Sniper School - practical equipment help question

    I'm attending a sniper school in September, class open to LE/Mil only. I contacted the instructor and let him know I'm not on a SWAT team, I am attending this class to learn for now, hope to get on a team eventually. That said, I don't have all the gear for deploying. He is cool with me...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Kimber 1911's

    One other thing I'll add is that I've seen Kimber's with alleged stainless steel barrel have rust spots within a year. Yeah, I know - warranty. But I shouldn't have to deal with warranty. These are pistols in a rental of a range and they get cleaned/oiled 2x a week. I've never had this...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns my first beaver tail install

    I'm so envious of you all that have the balls to do that on a $1k pistol(replacement value)!! It's truly inspirational! But, Eli Polite - like you said, take the time, don't treat it like it had to be done yesterday. thanks for sharing! -G45

    Accu-Shot Bipod

    I hesitated at buying one. I thought how could a $280 Atlas be THAT much better than a $70 Harris. With my recent GAP10, i figured why cut any corners, and bought one, had it cerakoted to boot. Well, yeah - the thing is a tank! It's smooth, robust, the panning feature is nice. I like the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Suggestion Needed New Sights TRP 1911

    Heinie Ledge or 10-8 sights. I prefer the square rear notch of Heinie sights. I know others like the rounded rear notch of 10-8. Both of them are quite robust, have night sight options. If you wanted to go indestructible "bad-ass" route, always have Jardine rear sight put on. I think you'd...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Smith & Wesson 29-6 question?

    I'd ballpark it at $700-$800. perhaps a smidge more, but like I said - ballpark, not looking in a book from having purchased one 2 years ago and wanting it with box. Fun gun to be sure! -G45

    Average weight of a complete 308AR with scope ?

    I think most people will tell you their rifle is between "damn I wish it were a bit lighter" and "Damn is this a pig!" :) My 18" GAP10, PRS Stock, Vortex PST 4-14, Atlas bipod and rear monopod, empty mag weighs 14# -G45
