    New all over again.

    Its been a long time since I have posted here. I got out of rifles when I discovered USPSA about 8 years ago. That bug bit me hard. Fast-forward to now; I have a couple of USPSA buddies that are into or getting into PRS style club matches in the area. Right now the only gun I have even close to...

    Battlecomp: Best money I've spent in a while!

    Re: Battlecomp: Best money I've spent in a while! Shot my 14.5" BC equipped middy side by side with a 14.5" Surfire braked middy yesterday. Hands down I like the BC better. Less blast, less flash, very close in recoil/flip control.

    Rifle Scopes Flat top AR w/o irons Rings or AR type mount 1-4X?

    Going to building a 300Blk upper for my Ar15 with a 1-4X power scope for hunting. The upper will have no iron sights and I am wondering what you guys would think is best as far a cheek weld with a Magpul CTR. Obviously I dont need to worry about irons getting in the way and all the co-witness...

    Suppressors Quietest 30cal muzzle device thats not a supressor

    Re: Quietest 30cal muzzle device thats not a supressor Thanks for a the replies. The KX3 was high on my list as I have played with one on a 5.56 gun, I just wanted to see if there was anything else out there that I didn't know about. Anyone have any hands on time with a BRT CovertComp?

    Suppressors Quietest 30cal muzzle device thats not a supressor

    Gathering info for 300 Blackout hunting rifle build. Are there any 5/8-24 muzzle devices out there that are not suppressors, but really reduce noise to the shooter? Reduction in noise to the shooter is primary, everything else is secondary although a m.d. that would get a 14.5" barrel to 16+...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New Glock 34

    Re: New Glock 34 Nice! I have one for USPSA Production. First thing I did was ditch the sights for some Warren Tactical Sevigny Comps, then I stippled it. I have also put in a 14lb recoil spring and Glocktriggers.com Chanllenger kit, very nice BTW. I have since put a standard slide release on...

    How many rounds on your Wilson TTU?

    Picked up a Wilson single-stage TTU. Just put it in and I am hoping to get to the range this weekend. So far in dry-fire I like it miles above the RRA 2-stage I had. I am just wondering what other think of it and if its been good to you. Any issues? Has it stayed consistent? What do you do for...

    Best quad railfor m-4

    Re: Best quad railfor m-4 Quad rails are dumb if you are not using all the rail, there are better options. I just built this upper myself. DD receiver, DD barrel, Apex Machining tube. You can put rails only where you need them, less weight and more user friendly.

    Facial Hair Dilemma

    Re: Facial Hair Dilemma When I had a full beard and needed to trim I'd just go shooting. Remember to shoot weak-side for an even trim.

    Maggie’s Most impressive shot?

    Re: Most impressive shot? Was sighting in and getting dope out to 200 with a 10/22 that I had built. A Barn Swallow landed on a small tree at 140 so I took a shot. I swear it took off with the bullet in flight, but it came back to the same spot and was not so lucky the second time. Witnessed...
