    FN-based rifle build

    Re: FN-based rifle build I recommend GAP in North Kansas City. If GAP's wait time is too long, I have a gunsmith friend in Greensburg, KS that build up a M40A1 copy for me a decade ago that easily handle your request. If you need a stock, I still have a new Manners T3 w/ #7 barrel contour...

    Rifle Scopes New Leupold for hunting scope?

    Re: New Leupold for hunting scope? Thanks guys. I have a NF 5.5x22x50 on my AW in 6.5 CM and LOVE IT. I understand that NF is coming out with a 40mm Objective 2.5x10. That might be the best of both worlds. I see you can get a nice Swarozski for less than the NF I appreciate everyone's...

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting In Germany

    Re: Hunting In Germany About 8 years ago when I lived up in South Dakota, I took a German foreign exchange student out and taught him about deer hunting. He was from Berlin and from a family of bankers. He said there was basically no hunting in Germany. I think the highlight of our day was...

    Rifle Scopes New Leupold for hunting scope?

    My choice is down to a 4.5x14x40 LR Matte 30mm w/Varmint Hunters recticle or a NXS 2.5x10x32. I was planning on getting the Leupold and just noticed that they have changed the part numbers and the price is more than I remember. Please share your thoughts on the quality of current Leupold's...

    Looking for an opinion: Colt vs LMT

    Re: Looking for an opinion: Colt vs LMT I prefer the LMT over the Colt for customer service, milspec trigger and hammer pin hole diameter (.154 vs. .170) and available 10.5 barrels. Darin

    Fieldcraft Lethality of the 22LR- Results!

    Re: Lethality of the 22LR- Results! Some of the stories told here remind me of two individuals I grew up with. They were out shooting .22's one day when one put an old British Pith helmet on and asked the other to shoot him in the head with the .22. The other person said, "Stupid, take off...

    AIAW owners

    Re: AIAW owners Moon at GAP turned a 6.5CM Bartlein barrel for my AW and I LOVE it. It shoots bug holes. I sold my AI barrel change kit to a customer and bought a Brownell's 3" heavy duty barrel vise and a Zak Smith TB action wrench. Works just as good at a third the cost. I hope this...
