    Suppressors Anyone have a can on a FN FNC?

    If so, I have a few questions. How are you mating the can to the barrel? Are you using a metric/SAE adapter? If so, can you recommend a product? What do you use?

    Fieldcraft Taped muzzle

    For those that use or have used a precision rifle professionally, a question for the forum. A colleague of mine keeps his muzzle taped in storage to keep it debris free. Just to clarify, not just during stalks, in storage in his vehicle, when not using it. I am much more comfortable with...

    4 months to get in shape for Rangers?

    Re: 4 months to get in shape for Rangers? I went to Ranger school in the late 80s. Generally, run, ruck, do a lot of push ups, sit ups, pull ups and know how to climb rope. A little weight lifting can't hurt. Also, as other have pointed out, you have to be mentally tough and that is a whole...

    FNC Owners?

    Re: FNC Owners? Bought one in the 80s for 700 bucks. Well made, heavy duty, terrible trigger, bolt does not lock back after the last round is fired, safety placement is not ergonomic. Very reliable and accurate.
