Another vote for SWFA 3-9. It is tough, plenty of eye box and the optics are great for the price point. Case in point, I used one to shoot my first deer.

This will give you much better image quality than any of the "tactical" brands, with light transmission that actually beats a lot of the larger scopes because the quality of the lenses is so high. Eye relief and apparent FOV are generous even with the zoom eyepiece, but the fixed 30x eyepiece...

Depends on your budget, but the Steiner 15x56 can be had for well under $1k and are superb. I got mine for $700 and the quality of the optics is really remarkable.

What is this bipod?

If you are looking to dip your toe in, the Steiner HX 15x56 are exceptional at their price point. I bought a very lightly used pair for $700 and they give up very little to the Swaro, Zeiss and Leica. Also, if you are okay with going bigger, the 15x80 Steiners are available with a reticle. They...

I'll take the MP5 handguard and barrel.

That's a tall order for a home build and, as with homemade beer, you are likely to spend more time and money to wind up with something that just isn't as good as what the pros make. If you're in it for the project, go for it. If you're in it for performance, just spend the money in one fell...

I concur. Especially with an NFA item, where most of us don't even have possession of our cans yet, it seems like a bait and switch. My serial number is in the first half of the 'first gen' of production and it will probably be a few more months before I get hands on. It will be pretty...

Re: Dad Accused of Beating Daughter+Point Gun @ 2 Boys Ask yourself this: if you were 17 and a girl wanted to play fingercuffs with your and your best friend, would you say no? Based on the story, they weren't doing anything remotely criminal. As long as it was consensual, I wouldn't call...

Re: Little something came in the mail today I had a glass of that the last time I was in Louisville. Fantastic stuff. Bourbon country is heaven.

Re: First rifle for kids.... I was trying to decide on a rifle for my niece (10) and nephew (7) to shoot and have settled on a CZ Scout. High quality peep sights are available direct from CZ, the triggers are good and, unlike some of the cheaper kids' guns, it is built on a real action. An...
