    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 42, some will love me...

    I bought one of the 42's for my wife. Since she has little hands it works well for her. First shots through had FTE and the rest of the mag ran fine. The mag has a metal lip that I filed a 45 deg angle on and it ran fine after that. Hopefully they fix it before it becomes a regular problem...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Please Help Me Decide

    I have seen first hand what 8 rounds of a .45 does to a charging bear, it pisses him off if you manage to hit him. Carry bear spray, it saved our asses. Lessor of the evils out here wont stand up to a 10 mm or .45. Or you can go the cheap route and toot your whistle while hiking, sounds like fun.

    Anyone got a Savage 110FCP in 338LM?

    I'd say look back at my older posts but it appears that they have disappeared. I had several failure to fires due to the spring being weak, anywhere from 2" to 12" groups at 100-300 yards.

    Considering purchase of Savage 110 in 338 Lapua

    If you buy one, loctite the rail as it will work its way loose immediately even if you tighten it down.

    Considering purchase of Savage 110 in 338 Lapua

    I had many issues with the 110 FCP .338 Lapua. Horrible groups and failure to fire. Ended up selling it after six months. Others had great luck, some had horrible luck. I had the ATACR mounted up on it so that wasn't the issue. If you purchase one, good luck with it. I'm still a Savage fan but...

    Picking up my new AAC-SD at the FFL soon; is the Hogue iovermold stock complete crap?

    I got the Bell and Carlson Medalist M40 Varmint/Tactical. I think they lied on what it weighs. Came in yesterday. Happy to see there are good hide members helping out others.

    AI = Apathy International? Take a look at these new stocksides.

    Well now you have me reconsidering their chassis. Hopefully this was a fluke. Put a Walmart sticker over it and send it back.

    AW vs TRG - first top tier rifle advice

    Don't drop your cash if you can't get a good scope for it. If you want a good rife, learn how to reload, you will be happier with the results.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce #C307 compatible with B.O.R.S. ??

    Pretty sure your looking at the Barrett 66971 model? It will only fit pre 2011 non high speed turrets as stated. A no go for yours.
