    5/8x24 threads for 22

    I assume there is a liability issue. I've seen custom brakes that give you the option, but not suppressor mount ones.

    5/8x24 threads for 22

    Just picked up a Tikka Super Varmint (great gun!) in.223, and I see that it's threaded for 5/8x24 muzzle devices. That's great in theory, but the practical reality is that I'd prefer a muzzle brake with a 22 cal bore. The kicker is that I also want it to be a KeyMo brake for my suppressor...

    Dead Air Mask vs TBAC Takedown?

    I know this isn't a fresh post, but just thought I'd add one detail. I have both and really like them both. Can't tell a difference in function or accuracy. HOWEVER, I bought the Mask first to use with both rifle and pistol, but it turns out that the outer diameter is 1.07, which means that it...

    Reticle psychology

    Can anyone explain the psychology behind how people perceive reticle thickness? I can understand that some people have a hard time seeing a fine FFP reticle at low magnification, but I frequently see complaints that the crosshairs or center dot are too thick, and I just don't get it. Whenever I...

    Primary Arms Customer Service

    As I expected, it was a simple error, and marsh1 took care of it immediately. I'd say that's GREAT customer service. To be fair, in my original email to them, I said I was not in a hurry! Definitely gonna wear my PA hat this week (it's my favorite!)

    Primary Arms Customer Service

    Anybody have any experience with PA warranty returns? I've heard they have good CS, but I sent in a scope that wouldn't focus (one of their Japanese glass scopes), and I'm not thrilled with their communication. Are they just swamped right now? I never got a confirmation notice after they...

    Help with scope mount

    That's 1.4". Too tall for a good cheek weld.

    Help with scope mount

    I think I need the offset. It's for a Primary Arms PLX 1-8 scope, and every picture I can find (including on your website) shows it mounted forward of the receiver with a cantilever mount. Correct me if I'm wrong...

    Help with scope mount

    A little too tall. Beautiful, but I need a cantilever to get proper eye relief.

    Help with scope mount

    Having a hard time finding what I need. Just bought an LPVO with a 34mm tube for an AR and can't seem to find a one piece mount with the specs I'm looking for: 34mm 0 moa Cantilever (moderate, not huge offset) And here's the kicker - no higher than 1.25" center height. I have 2 other ARs with...

    LPVO advice

    I should mention that while I like the "you get what you pay for" mantra, I don't have an unlimited budget! Was hoping to stay in the 1200-1300 range (used or new).

    LPVO advice

    Purpose: coyote/varmint hunting and home defense. Maybe 3 gun occasionally. (I have a similar gun with just a red dot and one with a 2.5-10 scope plus a red dot on a 45° mount, so this is mostly me wanting something different). It's a 5.56 AR. I want something that essentially acts as a red...

    LPVO advice

    Looking for an LPVO and trying to make some decisions. Went to the local shop today and tried out a limited sample and was pretty blown away by the old "you get what you pay for" concept. Tried a couple $400 Riton scopes - could barely see across the store no matter how I adjusted them. Switched...

    Rifle Scopes Us optics TS 12x

    Finally got to shoot mine for the first time last night. For the price, I feel like I stole it. I'm used to higher power optics, but this one is for a lightweight hunting rig. First shot was in the bottom left corner of the target. Dialed 5 mils up and 4.5 mils right according the reticle and...
