    Suppressors Big Kudos to Silencerco I sent in my Osprey and my Specte with problems I likely caused

    Send an new E-mail or even give them a phone call. When I bought my Sparrow it was one that was not shipped with a carry case. I sent and E-mail, and got a reply back the following day. They asked for the Serial# and then a few days later it arrived. Other than the Saker not coming out...

    Anyone shooting a Shilen .260 Remington barrel?

    Bunsen27, nice shooting, but if you ever miss you know that it is you and not your gun.

    Member Link Up Puget Sound Area Shooter's Group

    I do reload and looking at 260 because of the 15 Pmags sitting in my safe. I have several other parts for a build that I wanted to do but then SH happened and everyone knows what happened then. Lapua now makes 260 brass and as you mention others can be necked up or down. Cheap brass is a...

    Night Vision California "Sniperscope" definition

    CA is way messed up, we knew that already but this type of thing can be abused easily. Using this definition of "sniper scope and NV" can come back in a VERY bad way. If a "sniper scope" ban passed at the federal level I would have to guess an anti-gun president could come along and "clarify"...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Picked up a new M&P C.O.R.E.

    Did the RMR come with it? Or did you choose the RMR and if so why that over the others? I am searching for a CORE and on waiting lists and no luck yet.

    Rifle Scopes My Thoughts on getting new optics

    New here but not to guns or life. If anything I usually try to over buy for my 'needs and/or wants' I do not want to buy an item and then sell it two to three years later to do an upgrade. That can be guns, optics, trucks, tractors, weedeaters, chainsaws. Kind of a buy once cry once...

    Rifle Scopes Could someone explain to me what the focal plane (First and Second)?

    New guy here, so this may be a stupid question coming up. Why does a FFP optic cost several hundred more than a SFP, at least when I have surfed NightForce, Vortex, Leupold. US Optics and S&B are FFP, and are high dollar. I am thinking about the 3.2-17x for a rifle, so lots of surfing...

    300 blackout help

    I have the Noveske 8.2" with the 7" NSR rail, an AAC Brakeout, and an SDN-6. Mine is a pistol not SBR, due to a stupid law here, but in five years freedom will be mine. If you plan on adding a DBAL there is not a whole lot of room on the rail system, so choose your optic wisely. Using subs...

    Another New Guy checking in

    I have come here many times over the past few years, mostly looking for optics information, and I am back looking for optics information again and decided I should create an account this time, so I can post questions. I doubt I will have much input, at least not on technical stuff. Politics and...
