    MK 12 Picture & Discussion Thread

    Been running AAC 77 SMK and their in-house OTM projectile loads lately (with a local store to buy from). Couple of groups from the last outing at 100yds. Snagged an H&R M16A1 lower last year from the first batch to repurpose the Nodak A1 lower it had...love the grey so left it as is and didnt...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Great information, thank you! Based on the barrel proof marking it is an AI factory installed example. Not sure who was supplying them back then, I would assume Border... Sidenote/cool fact, R. Wigger does have an entry on the logbook for this one from 1990.

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    I assumed the S/S was Single Shot...it isn't marked AT like other Coopermatch examples I've seen pictures of. Also assume the US stamp is akin to a US Property mark since it was a USMC gun. Also interesting is the bolt; it doesn't match the SN on the action, is fluted and has 3 lugs. Logbook...

    40XB: Work in Process

    Finally got to the range yesterday. Shot from sitting, 100 yards, 1" dots. 5 rounds per group, using each type of .17HMR I've got on hand. Using a Wiebad bag up front for support. Haven't actually measured them yet. The wind wasn't quite a factor here as it was on some other groups I shot...

    40XB: Work in Process

    I checked their website before I picked the gun up and noticed the same. I never heard back from the original owner (who put it on consignment) to find out who plumbed it all together. ETA: maybe it was an offering made previously and discontinued or special request/order?? I'm not as familiar...

    40XB: Work in Process

    Was on the hunt for an SWFA mil 16x, but none were to be had, so this has taken a couple extra weeks to get online. Did luck out and managed to find 500 additional rounds at about .40 cents per round last week (which is about the going rate for .17HMR locally). I was on the fence about getting...

    40XB: Work in Process

    Will definitely keep the original trigger. This is a 40XB then; it has that 700 style bolt handle. That's actually part of how I IDd it initially. I would assume that the considerations for .17 HMR were made for the bolt face/extraction when it was rebarreled. It has definitely been shot since...

    40XB: Work in Process

    Updated: Just picked up this rebarreled 40XB yesterday. It: -Is US marked (not USMC or US PROPERTY) -Has the original stock -Has a Benchmark Barrels .17HMR 24" barrel installed (unsure of contour, didn't measure when I had it out of the stock) The action is in fairly good shape; light wear is...

    The Fix from Q

    I'm waiting to see a Mini Fix in .224 Valkyrie. That, would be pretty cool.

    Rifle Scopes ACOG mount for Docter Red Dot...am I missing a piece?

    I have not checked Docter yet as the last time (when I purchased this used) I went looking for info on repairs (if needed later), their website did not seem to have been updated in quite a while. Seems it has now...much appreciated.

    Rifle Scopes ACOG mount for Docter Red Dot...am I missing a piece?

    Disclaimer, this is not a sales pitch or ad...I have this from a previous purchase, I did not need it, I am trying to figure out what to do with it and my google-fu is weak. I know it is a mount via which a Docter Red Dot can be piggybacked on an ACOG. Everything I can find is of a mount with...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Concealed Carry: What is your setup?

    M&P 9 riding in an HSP/G-Code INCOG Holster. For typical daily carry, I use the Mag Caddy and carry both appendix. During Winter (when I can actually wear a hoodie/Columbia) I use a pair of HSGI Pistol TACOs on a Raven Concealment ModuLoader frame...not cumbersome or heavy IMO, and its 51 rounds...
