    Atlas vs Harris bipods

    I use a Harris on my AR and an Atlas on my AI. I find the Atlas is sturdier and loads easier and is more stable. Takes a few moments more to adjust the leg lengths but is a better built bipod I think.

    Night Vision wanting to add night vision and thermal to multiple rifles

    You make an excellent point regarding rails and space. I already assumed and noted that I have no rail space in front of my mounts for all my rifles. My short barrel carbine I figured I will have to change my round for end to a rail type. I have a small flat top with a built in rail on the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns adding Leupold RMR to 1911 and Sig P226

    I have a custom Volkmann 1911 with High Heine sights that are fitted into a dovetail. I have a Sig P226 Tactical that is identical. Both gins have high sights to clear the suppressors. I am considering adding a Leupold RMR (RM07) dual illuminated adjustable dot to both. It is more common to...

    Drag Bag Eberlestock or Tac-Op

    Re: Drag Bag Eberlestock or Tac-Op I have several top quality drag bags and I think Tac Ops is the best one out there. If you are thinking of loading the tac ops bag with all your gear and then placing it in a hard case I doubt it will fit inside. it will be too fat. The Tac Ops bag will...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Holster options for HK USP 45 tactical?

    Re: Holster options for HK USP 45 tactical? Thanks RGraff. The SRB is what I had in mind and being able to adjust the cant and the belt thickness seems good. How is it to carry a USP tactical and try to conceal it? How it is to holster with its high sights? Thanks

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Holster options for HK USP 45 tactical?

    What holsters (belt preferably) will work well with a new HK USP45 tactical that I have coming I only have used Milt Sparks with my pistols up to a full 1911 size. I am not sure how well this is going to carry on a belt as it is a lot bigger. What are you guys using?

    Suppressors Anyone using Gemtec Blackside or AAC Tyrant for 45

    Re: Anyone using Gemtec Blackside or AAC Tyrant for 45 I decided on the Tyrant. Now all I have to decide is whether to get the 8 3/4 inch or the slightly louder but shorter 6 1/2 inch. I am thinking the shorter one, the 45S.

    Suppressors Best 9mm or 45 acp pistol to suppress?

    Re: Best 9mm or 45 acp pistol to suppress? I am looking hard at the HK USP Tactical as I think the MK23 is just too big for me and getting the gun in 45 ACP. Since I have a Volkman on order that he has not even started yet I thought I could set the Volkman up with an extended threaded...

    Suppressors Anyone using Gemtec Blackside or AAC Tyrant for 45

    Looking for input from anyone using these suppressors for a 45 ACP. Which do you like better in construction and sound and do you see much point of impact change with them? I have narrowed down my search to these two cans for a H&K USP tactical and possibly for a Volkman I am having built.

    Suppressors Best 9mm or 45 acp pistol to suppress?

    Re: Best 9mm or 45 acp pistol to suppress? I have also been looking at the HK tactical which comes with an extended threaded barrel and am thinking either the USP Tactical with a gemtech or the larger MK23 with a gemtec. Both guns come with raised sights so I won't have the problem of the...

    Suppressors Best 9mm or 45 acp pistol to suppress?

    I am looking to set up a new 9mm or 45 pistol with suppressor. Which caliber and which pistol and which suppressor will work best? I am looking at a Glock generation 4 Model 19 but then will have to buy a longer barrel and have it threaded and decide on the suppressor. Is there a way to order...

    Rifle Scopes adding night vision to my rifle

    Re: adding night vision to my rifle Thanks for the help. I see ATN night scopes are about what a S&B costs with the latest generation in a 6 to 8 power but I have to be changing scopes. The PVS27 seems like the perfect setup but man 10K is steep for what little I will use it. I am not...

    Rifle Scopes adding night vision to my rifle

    Can you guys give me some advice on adding night vision capability to my rifle. I shoot and AIAW 308 suppressed with a S&B 5x25x56. I would like to add night vision to it but don't want to give up my S&B. I love the scope. Is there any way I can add some kind of NV optics in front of my...

    Ballistic Info for .308 175gr SMK

    Re: Ballistic Info for .308 175gr SMK Wow. That is some shooting. I shoot an AIAW 308 with a 20" barrel with a S&B 5x25 with black hills 175 grain and at 500 yds can get 3/4 moa. That's the best I can do after one shot after verifying my wind calculations and making adjustments from one...
