    Gunsmithing Designing a Survival Rifle?

    I have a 10" SBR'd M4, but its way bulkier than say, the sub 2k. Its also way more expensive and tracked with an ATF stamp. I was looking at something like the survival 22 or the sub 2k because i could leave it in my truck and not really worrk about it. If it got stolen, it wouldnt be AS BIG...

    Gunsmithing Designing a Survival Rifle?

    I am wondering if it would be possible to build a survival rifle, like the .22 that fits in its own stock, but in a larger caliber. Looking at .223/5.56. I dont care if it is bolt action or semi. I was also thinking about something like the KetTec sub-2000 in .223/5.56. Does anyone know if...

The longest range around is 300yds. When I was in NM we had a 1k yd free public range ran by parks and recreation that was...

    Manners T4A ammo carrier

    Im thinking of getting an ammo card for the Red Tac Gear Ammo Management Platform and epoxying the velcro backing to the side of my T4A under the ejection port. Anyone tried anything like this? The reason I dont get a stock pack is because I shoot a right handed bolt in my left shoulder. I...

    Thank you. I have another picture of the exit wound after I skinned her, somewhere. I think I need to pull it of the wifes' camera. Once skinned, I could have stuck a baseball through the hole.

    Range Report The Hornady 140 amax ammo. The OLD VS THE NEW

    Consistently less accurate at 200. Several different shooters, different lots of 140's, different days, and clean/dirty doesn't matter either. There was an article I read about gladius rifles owner building a creedmoor and the way the article was written it seemed like his did the same. Opens up...
