    Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

    Can someone make a guess about the model and magnification range of the scope? It isn’t familiar to me.

    Mossberg 590A front sight change

    Before I unintentionally ruin the standard bead front sight on this rig I thought to ask whether anyone has tried to remove one. If so, how to go about it? My purpose is to install a brighter front sight that would be more visible in dim light at night inside the house. Which leads me to...

    Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

    First of all, thanks for the many thoughtful comments. I hadn't expected so many responses. My original post wasn't intended to look down on anyone. My question really was trying to get at the essence of the shooting problem. Obviously better fundamentals on a more challenging rifle would...

    Why are AR15s so difficult to shoot for the average shooter?

    Ok, I recognize that the answer is better fundamentals, full stop. But this is what I see. Go to any range, see a bunch of AR15s on the line, and for most of the shooters it is all they can do to put their rounds inside a 12" diameter target center at 100 yards. It doesn't seem to matter...

    AR15 magazine recommendations

    I am legally limited to 10 rounds. Had heard of Lancer and Duramag but Surefeed and NHMTG new to me. Appreciate the suggestions, thank you.

    AR15 magazine recommendations

    I am interested in trying some 10 round magazines from manufacturers other than Magpul. They'll be running in Compass Lake lowers, if that makes any difference. Have had some trouble with Pmags recently (irregular feed lips) and would like to see what other options experienced shooters...

    Need some advice, occasional failure to extract JP AR10

    The rim of the cases does look the same, extracted or not. The extractor has 375 rounds life time so far. It looks normal to me, no obvious wear that seems out of the ordinary. The extractor claw looks sharp and normal, no rounded edge on the claw or any missing or dented segments on the...

    Need some advice, occasional failure to extract JP AR10

    Need some diagnostic help on this situation. Took this rig, in 6.5 CM, to the range the other day after it had been sitting in the safe for about a year. Only 350 rounds through it. All JP factory parts including the Silent Captured Spring standard for this rifle. Bobro one piece mount with...

    Scope advice for NRL22 competition rifle

    TBH this was my initial instinct. I am neurotically fussy about reticles -- some too busy, some not enough detail for hold unders yak yak yak -- which led me to thinking he should just get behind several and see whether any of them rings his chimes. The kid has essentially zero experience...

    Scope advice for NRL22 competition rifle

    I totally get the vibe about a kid owning a multi thousand dollar rig. At that age I was still trying to get the best out of my Daisy BB gun. Ok, I am getting the drift here, really appreciate the advice and suggestions. It occurs to me his next step ought to be attending an actual match...

    Scope advice for NRL22 competition rifle

    Thank you all. As to price, I told him a high end scope for PRS might run $6000, but that I couldn't speak to what might be sufficient for NRL22. His goal is to buy once and not worry about upgrading later. He can afford something at that level. My question probably should have been more...

    Scope advice for NRL22 competition rifle

    I don't shoot NRL22 matches, so need some advice for a friend who is building a rifle for his son. He has a Vudoo barreled action, Triggertech Diamond trigger, believe it is mounted in an American Rifle Company Xylo chassis, -- so a nice rig. Plan is for the boy, now 14, to grow into it, and...
