    Rifle Scopes Setting up a FFP rifle scope - A simple PSA on Diopters

    So there are some fun things to comment on, hopefully the original commenters inside the copy/paste section come back. 1) The process is the same whether or not you have parallax adjustment, the distance away from your blank background does not matter. All that matters is that there is no...

    Do you believe this target?

    I miss when reading comprehension was more prevalent on forums. I'm assuming those who said they've never seen someone shoot the same target at multiple distances has shot a range with pits. Janky target and overall jankiness leads me to guess that maybe they have a large open space for...

    Gunsmithing AR 15 gas block

    An fsp is going to be much more complex than a simple gas block. Best case is to find someone local to do it for you. Where are you located?

    "CR-MOD 1" A Weapon Review 300 blackout suppressed.

    Favorite part about this is that when I went to Chad to barrel my 40XB RF he sent me to Greg who in turn got me a MullerWorks barrel for that project. Cool to see another rifle with a similar unusual pedigree.

    Daniel Defense Mk12, worth it?

    My guess would be trigger control issues hidden by the SSA.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock OD green frame problems?

    This is very true, but some are affected more than others, and some polymers are (near) completely UV resistant. They have been getting better each year (on an industry scale, not talking about Glock specifically), so significantly older polymer guns may be more likely to have issues, but the...

    AR triggers

    The CMC triggers will feel a lot more like a bolt gun trigger than Geissele's (still great triggers), as the CMC's are single stage, light, and super smooth. They come in curved and flat bows from 3-7lbs in 1 or .5 lb increments, can't remember which. But, they are so smooth that the 3lb doesn't...

    Round 5 100 yard challenge - suggestions needed.

    How about the 10 rounds/10 dots, but you wager the size dot. I.e. 1 moa dots, 1/2 moa dots, etc. Know your poi limits.

    SPR Build, help

    You can get the contract barrels from Centurion Arms or High Caliber Sales, they shoot lights out. Douglass blanks turned by CLE if I'm not mistaken. And adjustable gas block may be a good idea.

    USMC XM-3 Rifle

    While it was a good joke, it was made earlier. Still deserved that one though.

    Building my 1st AR15. SPR-ish gun. Update.. Looking for a trigger now?

    The CMC triggers are gtg. They'll replace my Geissele's at some point when I'm not an indentured researcher.
