    Are they worth it? Phoenix Tactical Pod Claws

    Re: Are they worth it? Phoenix Tactical Pod Claws I have a set of Pod Claws, and while they're great on soft soil and grass, they're not very good on concrete or other hard surfaces. For me, the most versatile option is their rubber "MOUT" footing. They have more surface area than the...

    .308 Semi Advice For a Noob

    Re: .308 Semi Advice For a Noob Just out of curiosity, are you planning on getting a muzzle brake? I have a GAP AR-10 (not the GAP 10; I purchased mine before the GAP-10 was out) and originally got it with a 20" barrel and a Badger Thruster brake. I got the muzzle brake because even though...

    Aviation Career

    Re: Aviation Career Before joining the military to fly (any branch), get a few hours on your own. I say this because I knew quite a few guys and gals in flight school that joined to fly then found out they didn't like flying. Some guys didn't like all the work, some guys just weren't...

    Range Report Why are you still using the 168gr Match round?

    Re: Why are you still using the 168gr Match round? I shoot 168 gr FGMM out of my AR-10 (at paper and steel out to 600 yards or less) because I can usually get it cheaper than 175 gr FGMM. I tend to burn through it faster with a semi-auto, so it just makes sense to shoot the cheaper stuff...

    Good Ranges in SoCal

    Re: Good Ranges in SoCal The closest that I know of is Pala, about 25 miles east of Pendleton on Highway 76: NCSA Pala You can also try the West End Gun Club, but it's a bit of a hike (about an hour away, near Corona): West End Gun Club Several years ago I went shooting with some...

    Going Long - proposed 300WM build

    Re: Going Long - proposed 300WM build Why not a Remington 700 5R milspec in .300 WinMag? Better aftermarket stocks and parts availability than the Savage.

    Decent range in northern VA?

    Re: Decent range in northern VA? Check out Quantico Shooting Club. Range 1 goes out to 300 yards, Range 4 out to 1,000 yards. It's hit or miss as to whether or not it's available for what/when you want to shoot, but the folks that run it are nice guys and put on some good F-class, F-T/R...

    Need some recommendations for AR10 build

    Re: Need some recommendations for AR10 build Are you sure you want a 20" barrel? How far do you intend to shoot it? I have an 18" that's good to go to at least 800 yards with FGMM 175 (maybe more, just haven't have the chance to shoot farther). The AR-10 platform can get heavy, so a heavy...

    We got any swimmers here?

    Re: We got any swimmers here? I've never done any competitive swimming, but have always been comfortable in the water. Recently I read through Total Immersion Swimming, and its definitely helped. But, it would probably help even more to attend one of their workshops. Once you get your...

    Gunsmithing Carbon Fiber Stock

    Re: Carbon Fiber Stock Most McMillan stocks can be made with carbon fiber (what they called their EDGE stocks), but must be special-ordered. I have an A1-3 EDGE and love it. The only disadvantages are that you can't have adjustable hardware (such as an adjustable cheekpiece or buttstock)...

    Rifle Scopes About To Drop The Hammer...

    Re: About To Drop The Hammer... I have a 4-16X42 single-turn CCW on my GAP AR-10 and its just about perfect. Once thing to keep in mind is that you'll probably need some sort of angled mount to get the full elevation range. Just for the heck of it, I mounted the scope without one, and with...

    Suppressors Kimber vs Nighthawk Custom

    Re: Kimber vs Nighthawk Custom I have a Nighthawk Custom GRP Recon, and its by far the most accurate pistol I own. And compared to my friend's Kimber (I think its a TLE 2), its far and away a better pistol. The machining is better, the finish is better, the trigger is better, and it just...

    Precision Scoped Rifle 2 **CLASS FULL**

    Re: Precision Scoped Rifle 2 March 19/20 N.C. This is just a quick plug to anyone reading this thread that may be on the fence about signing up for any of Sean's classes: I attended both the PR1 and PR2 classes a few years ago and had a great time. I learned quite a bit, and got to do some...

    bipod help

    Re: bipod help If you end up going with the Harris for some reason, get a KMW PodLock. They're not very expensive (about $25.00) and greatly increase functionality.

    New B&C Stock

    Re: New B&C Stock Interesting. That looks strikingly similar to my McMillan A1-3, including the bolt removal slot.
