    Re: First post. be gentle..AR "Sniper" Build I just (finally) shot my new WOA 18" 1/7 this evening ... after zeroing it shot mk262 gov't reject ammo (5.56 77gr OTM) into a best group of .68" @ 100 yds. It also really liked BH reman .223 69gr OTM. I'm sure the rifle can do better as I'm...

    My new Noveske 6.8

    Hi guys - thought I'd share my newest rifle, an SBR in 6.8. Having filed in August, and after collecting parts during the fall, I received my stamp this month and sent away for the last piece of the puzzle: Noveske's 8.5" stainless barrel. I had her out on Sunday and she's a shooter. Muzzle...

    late-80s Oly CAR-AR

    Hi all; I recently acquired an older (SGW "stop-sign" logo) Olympic Arms 20" HBAR rifle, model CAR-AR. Serial number puts it at 1989 production. I haven't had much time to shoot lately and when I do the Oly isn't on the short list of rifles that need exercise. Consequently I haven't even...

    Re: Pictures from a recent Magpul Dynamics Carbine 1 & Thanks for sharing. Looks like a blast. Does anyone know how the guy in blue (YammyMonkey) has his pistol retained? Is that anything more than paracord with a pull-tab threaded through a grommet hole?

    Re: Anyone from Connecticut? Very cool! Looks like you guys shook off the winter ice in style. I took the little lady for a motorcycle ride and a trip to the indoor range at S&W. Looking forward to meeting up for the next 400 yard shoot!
