Euro Optic shipping procedures SUUUUCK!
Wow. I'd say that falls on UPS for releasing the package to someone without an ID matching the recipient on the package, but good luck getting UPS to admit fault and pay up. Having dealt with their insurance before they make it as time consuming as possible hoping you give up, lol Whenever I...- Kiba

Euro Optic shipping procedures SUUUUCK!
I'm guessing it's fraud related, but would appreciate your industry take on the matter. I do know that UPS procedures for firearms parts shipping changed substantially a couple of years ago, to ship anything firearms related other than an optic now requires an FFL shipping agreement with them...- Kiba

Euro Optic shipping procedures SUUUUCK!
The shipper can specify that a package cannot be redirected when generating the label. This applies to both FedEx and UPS. As was mentioned you used to be able to hold non-redirectable packages at the nearest UPS terminal/hub with a customer counter for signature and pickup, but since UPS is...- Kiba

Powder IN-STOCK thread
In my experience stacking it deep can lead to tossing it out later; unfortunately powder doesn't last forever. I've had several containers of vihtavuori N1XX powders change color and develop a very acrid smell around the 10-12 year mark, whereas I've yet to have that issue with the hodgdon and...- Kiba

I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24
Yep. I have 3 lightweight rifles with LHT 4.5-22s on them right now and while they work well, I'd like a wider FOV and better glass without adding too much more weight. More positive turrets would be nice too. The LHT definitely gives up a few things for a very light weight. I have 2 spare S&B...- Kiba

FUBAR times 6!
That's a new feature. You can easily adjust the headspace by changing the amount and thickness of the chips and have all the peace of mind of a shouldered and torqued barrel without having to resort to a barrel nut. You can even compensate for that reverse canted scope mount by putting...- Kiba

Manners LRH Discussion
Honestly, with some people complaining the regular TCS is too butt heavy with anything less than a straight contour barrel, and manners making the TCS Max with a lighter fill in the butt, lighter buttpad hardware, a micro chassis, and more weight up front to shift the balance, your light LRH...- Kiba

Manners LRH Discussion
It won't fit out of the box, but you could add some t nuts in the fore end and make it fit. Not sure if the front most holes will end up in the stock though, you might have to drill and counterbore a new hole an inch or two back. Manners offers a full length rail for the LRH but it's aluminum...- Kiba

Manners LRH Discussion
Maybe buy a 360 precision TCS steel rail or a manners TCS Max steel rail and add it to your LRH. Be a bit weird, but it should work. I think the 360 rail is about 40oz and the manners TCS Max rail is about the same, plus you can add an additional nose weight to the TCS Max rail if you want...- Kiba

Spuhr is over rated. Prove me wrong
This is the firearms industry. Looking cool to justify the high price is far more important than design, FEA, and physical testing to produce a quality, reliable, and durable product. Any failures can easily be blamed on the end user, and the fanboys will continue to run cover for a history of...- Kiba

People who dump kittens and puppies should be strung up….
I also have a reloading helper, although she's more of a process supervisor than a storage inspector. I found her abandoned at only a couple weeks old taped up inside a paper grocery bag and left near the house. Once again, people suck. She's 10 now. Here's how big she was when I found her...- Kiba

People who dump kittens and puppies should be strung up….
I'm just outside of town surrounded by orchards and alfalfa, and being just a couple miles outside city limits we become the dumping ground and frequently get trash left on the roadside and in the orchards for those too lazy to drive 5 more miles and spend a few bucks at the county dump, as well...- Kiba
