    Maggie’s DOG NAMES

    Re: DOG NAMES Here's my Cairn Terrier named "Teddy" after T.R.. Just like President Roosevelt, he's a tough little bastard and he's smart too--when he decided I was paying to much attention to the RAID pack I got for my b-day, he decided to sit in it when I had to leave and answer the phone...

    Knight Rifles .950 JDJ- Holy Sh*t

    Re: Knight Rifles .950 JDJ- Holy Sh*t Who cares "if that thing is necessary"? Those dudes are in America so if they have the cash and time to build a rifle like that, good for them.

    Rifle Scopes Need a Mid-Range Scope

    Re: Need a Mid-Range Scope SWFA SS 3-9 off the SampleList for $499--one hell of a good optic, even w/considering the price. It's a smidge over your mag range on the low end, but I have yet to hear a negative review of it...

    Range time with the new stock!

    Re: Range time with the new stock! Looks good--I'm waiting on that same stock in the same color scheme from those same folks so you've given me an idea what my boltgun will look like when it's done (even though I have NO idea when that will be...).

    X-Mark Pro reassembly?

    Re: X-Mark Pro reassembly? Here's a screen capture off of the Brownells DIY Timney 510 (damn all of you who are making me think that's a better way to go... ) and hopefully it helps other folks who might be in my predicament...

    X-Mark Pro reassembly?

    Re: X-Mark Pro reassembly? Thanks, that should help. I'm going to fiddle with it tonight when I get home (can learn better when I have actual parts-in-hand to manipulate) since this sounds like most any trigger group--with my Ruger SA's, the first time was a mess and took hours but now I can...

    X-Mark Pro reassembly?

    Re: X-Mark Pro reassembly? I did Google for images (maybe just didn't try the right keyword combination) but didn't find an image that is clear about what I have to do with the spring...

    X-Mark Pro reassembly?

    [sheepish expression] Well, I screwed up and got ahead of myself so I'm asking for help here with my Rem. 700 trigger... [/sheepish expression] Basically, I got ahead of myself and punched out the two pins holding the X-Mark Pro trigger onto my Rem.700 before looking really thoroughly at it...

    Rifle Scopes No SHOT Show for Liberty Optics this year

    Re: No SHOT for Liberty Optics this year Yeah, with your new storefront and lack of happiness with the Sands (IIRC that was in your SHOT reports from last year), I can't blame you for not going. Hell, I live in Vegas (Henderson, actually) and can't go since we have a final exam on Friday and...

    Getting there with my SPR build...

    I've had this build going on for YEARS now--buying pieces/parts as I get the dough saved up or sell off unused/unneeded gear and certain ones have come on the market. I've only shot it with irons so far but it's shaping up to be a hellish-accurate piece if I was able to empty a 30 round...

    Douglas Mk12 Mod1 barrel?

    Re: Douglas Mk12 Mod1 barrel? I've got a DMR upper from Monty at Centurion and so far I couldn't be happier with it. I don't have a lot of rounds downrange with it (waited on optics--just installed the scope last week) but if it can make uber-crappy 55 gr. UMC ammo look good, that's one HELL...

    RFI: Asheville, NC area?

    HH6 and I have been talking a bit about where we'd like to live when she retires in 5-ish years and we keep coming back to North Carolina so I'm curious if anyone here who's in the western part of the state around Asheville could offer some thoughts. She told me N.C. doesn't tax military...

    Synthetic stock mod?

    Would I be risking the integrity/strength of a composite stock (Bell and Carlson M40, specifically) by putting two screws into it to attach a rail segment? I'd like to be able to swap a bipod between the bolt gun and my AR but the bolt gun will need to have a bit of rail on the underside of the...

    Rifle Scopes Ring height double-check?

    Remington 700 AAC-SD 20 MOA base (not sure what brand, most likely Seekins or Larue) Weaver Tactical 3-15 If I go with Seekins rings, should I be OK with "medium" ones or could I squeak though with "low" rings? I ran the ring height calculator on Seekins' web site and there wasn't a profile...

    Rail System for AR-15

    Re: Rail System for AR-15 It would be worth a look at a Centurion Arms C4 rail if you're interested in a longer free-float handguard that produces a "continuous" top rail. They're made by an active-duty SEAL as his side job, are light as all get-out, and are flipping rigid/don't twist if...
