    Savage MK II FV-SR ammo?

    I have a most-basic Savage Mark II GXP - a (extremely nice-looking, if you ask me...) basic wooden stock and it came with a Bushnell 3-9x40mm scope that was absolutely fine - but a friend dropped it at the range, and it would no longer hold zero, so it was replaced with a Nikon ProStaff...

    Help me decide what to build

    I had a 700 in a MCS T5A and literally and figuratively, best stock on the planet and the Manners people are really good people. One of the reasons I bought a Tikka T3X UPR late last year was because I can't drop $1,500 on a new stock for a rifle like I did in my youth, I wanted an...

    Project for the Daughter

    I love it. I don't have kids - I'm 40 and realize I'm not like to have any, shoot I have enough trouble taking care of myself ... I lost my ~12yr old Australian Cattle Dog this year, he was my son - but this is exactly the type of thing I would look forward to doing if I had kids. Looks sweet...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 22 Pistol?

    Just throwing it out there... I have a S&W M&P 22 Compact ... I was one of the first in the USA to get one, purely by luck, at a Gun Show from some small Mom & Pop & Children FFL. They weren't released for another couple weeks but somehow this family shop got one from the distributors early and...

    Scope choice: Athlon Argos BTR G2 or Arken SH4 G2

    I initially got an Athlon Argos BTR 6-20x50mm for my new Tikka T3X UPR in January. I will say- I think it's worth every dime for the price and can't complain. I should state that I actually got the first-generation, despite it was an ad for Gen2, but I read a few posts saying that they might...

    What’s your coolest firearm?

    I was going to say the dude with the 50-cals won this thread but then I saw this and you totally win. I mean Mortal Kombat-style "Flawless Victory" .... TOASTY!!! And yeah, she's Totally Legit brotherman. And thank you for your service- some people consider that a d-bag type of thing to say...

    What’s your coolest firearm?

    Thank you very very much... pretty familiar with this, although I wasn't always. This particular gun has quite a bit of rounds fired- we both agree I myself fired my first at the age of 6 out of this back in '87... we're both pretty sure we sort of 'tandem-shot' when I was 5, with him standing...

    What’s your coolest firearm?

    Very loaded question. I have a pair of Colts that my Great Grandfather carried on the job for the NYPD back in the early 1900s... came off-the-boat from Ireland, NYC had the Irish Need Not Apply policy, and so he had to sign-up for Irish Welfare ... The New York City Police Department... I am...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Springfield Hi-Power clone?

    I have wanted a pair of Springfield TRPs for awhile now - I won't buy them until I can buy both I want at the same time, and I just don't have the money to waste these days. But that Hi-Power is right bro. I would love one. And it looks to be pretty affordable at $699 MSRP ... What does that...

    Trijicon SRO on a 12 gauge

    I don't have this exact experience but I can say two things - I have an Aimpoint Micro on my Mossberg 930 SPX - have had it for coming up on 11 years now? And I absolutely LOVE IT. Everyone who shoots it loves it. And while I am a big fan of Aimpoint, I might even be a bigger fan of Trijicon...

    Tikka T1x UPR

    Not that this is what you're talking about but just in case anyone has interest - I can *highly* recommend the T3X UPR. I got a T3X UPR .308 after Christmas and it's been *superb*. Amazing. People had a lot of concerns with the stock - as far as I am concerned, I got a nearly $1,200 stock...

    Tape to add Bulk to a Grip?

    Not 100% sure if this is up your alley but I just used some of this on my Glock 27 EDC grip - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07792N8BL/ I originally got it to wrap my scope and have found all sorts of uses for it. It's originally a self-sticking medical bandage tape basically - it...

    Pete Lesbo / I2 BEWARE!!!

    I have 101% no personal business on this topic - I had no idea who this person is or what he sold/built/etc. until reading the thread because it was at the top of the forum. I actually wondered if it was some sort of fancy shotgun because it looked like "12" instead of "i2" and as I collect...

    Vault Door/ Safe room experiences?

    So a few things - I agree with having insurance 1001%. I also have had some life-altering experience with insurance... My house burned to the ground when I was in 1st Grade, what, 35+? years ago. Gone. Open area and black ashes where house used to be. We had insurance, and they paid, but...

    First 308

    I was going to recommend Tikka as well, I myself bought a Tikka T3X UPR recently and have fallen in love with it. But , if you don't drop everything and go get that Sako TRG-22 immediately , you and me and everyone else are going to be regretting it for the rest of our natural lives...

    Vault Door/ Safe room experiences?

    So this is one of the topics, how do I say it properly? I'm never going to have one of the nicest rifles or optics or setups on this forum. (Well, if I hit the lottery, then definitely. Short of that, probably not.) I definitely have a pretty sweet, extremely strong "Safe Room". We built...

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    I have to be 1001% honest with you - I had no idea what you were talking about at first. I guess my settings were set to not display any Signatures on posts - and so I did that, and I'm still thinking, "What is my signature? I have no idea... " - Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies, and...

    Rifle Scopes Brownell's 5-25x56 MPO is finally in stock!

    I feel completely the same and I absolutely love mine. I also got it for $899 - I have *no idea why* - it showed up as $999.99 and I added it to my cart. I also added TPS TSR rings - they weren't quite $135 but $134.XX something or other. When I clicked "my cart", the price changed for both...

    Beretta 1301 Tactical

    One thing about buying another barrel - if Beretta is like Benelli (which I suspect they are, since Beretta owns them...) - their parts are like the most expensive firearms parts in the world. You may find it's cheaper *to buy another shotgun* than a barrel. I did. I got an extremely...

    Getting another Rem 700P- am I just a glutton for pain?

    I really wanted a 700P (like many others I'd suspect, I thought it would be as close to an M24 SWS or M40 I would get...) - but I couldn't find one (this was right before the 2012 re-election of Obama bin Biden and the gun shops were insanity) - and I 'settled' on a 700 AAC-SD .308 20". Let me...
