    Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy

    I believe dropping the slide on an empty chamber is also frowned upon, but for other reasons on 1911's it's hard on the trigger parts, but it's probably not good for a variety of reasons to have the slide slam home with nothing there. The reason that slamming the slide home on a round in the...

    New 4 oz. AIR BRACE Cantilever Mount, American Rifle Company Black Friday Sale

    Looks awesome for ultralight builds and impressive at 1/3 of the weight of the M-brace. The Seekins MXM and Nightforce Unimount are in the 5-6oz range already and are pretty much bombproof so I'd really have to be building a ultralight weight rig to swap a mount for 1-2oz savings, and if I...

    Red dots with good auto brightness

    They work pretty well most of the time. It's a trade off really, you can run a manual brightness optic really bright to make sure the dot is always there, but in some situations it's going to be too bright, or you can run the auto brightness but I've found they can be too dim in some...

    Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy

    Agree it sounds like an extractor and/or extractor tension, also give the extractor channel a good cleaning, sometimes a lot of crap can build up in here and cause issues. Also you probably already know this, but I see a lot of people drop pistol slides with a round in the chamber, especially...

    Non comp 22

    I'd also echo that while the Bravo is not a bad stock by itself (though I'm not a fan of the 10/22 version), if you leave it alone. However, if you start putting accessories on it, you can quickly double the price.

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mark 4HD

    Not just Leupold, I had a Burris XTR 3 that had enough slop to move half a click either way past a mark. Sent it back to Burris twice and they returned it saying it met spec. both times. The third time they offered to let me trade it on an XTR pro for $1100 extra, meanwhile XTR Pros were...

    fix it sticks recomendations?

    For bit holders I ended up trying some of these recently and have been impressed so far and they come in a few different sizes. Bit's don't fall out of them, they have different colors, and bits don't get stuck in them. Probably because they are a more compliant material. A lot of the...

    Seekins PH3 proprietary rail?

    Yeah the split pic rail was a poor decision IMO.......they added a 1/2lb to the rifle to get the adjustable cheek piece, for the love of god keep the full length pic rail. It's not like the PH3 at ~7.5lbs is setting any ultralight weight records. A beefy full steel pic rail is only about 4oz...

    Rifle Scopes Burris XTR 3 Vs Athlon Cronus

    I've had warranty experiences from both companies and that alone would make me avoid Burris.

    WHICH SPUHR ONE - PIECE MOUNT DESIGN DO YOU PREFER?

    Is there a 4th option for a unicorn version where the clamp bars don't crack? :ROFLMAO: The only one I'm still running is a direct mount on a TRG, recently replaced the one on my AI with ARC, they are both the first gen style. Funny part is the one I really liked that they made was the...

    Elr Bipod arca vs pictanny

    Nice, I have gone down the rabbit hole of trying to get a RRS r-loc clamp on a WB-5 or LP-50. I never really found a solution I liked, as you said you can get away with it on the WB-x if you tilt the tilt the clamp to make enough clearance for the lever. Accutac gets away with it because...

    For the Love of God, GI Joe and John Wayne.... cleaning and abrasive cleaners

    My brain has never liked the idea of the parker hale type jags in that since the patch does not wrap evenly around it that it could over-pressure an area with less patch, but I've heard they are more picky about patch material/size too so that might be part of my experience. Same for the...

    Shot Show 2025 Rumours

    Yep that's Ron Cohen's business plan. He did the same thing when he basically destroyed Kimber, they started making 80 variants of the same gun, amazing marketing, but horrible QC. It worked for awhile until the lack of quality control almost destroyed them. Many won't touch one to this day...

    Burris XTR PRO DI Precision Windage Dials ?

    Burris might be able to send it to you, the black XTR Pro version I got came with the capped version installed, but it had the exposed windage dial included. There is a part that might be it, it's listed several places, but I could not find a picture to verify it. Burris XTR PRO Exposed...

    2A ALERT for COLORADO: CO AWB at Gov's desk. THIRTEEN new antigun bills to be watched. Update on post 106 pg 3..

    First time I visited CO was probably in the early 90's in Co. Springs competing at the olympic training center and shooting out at Ft. Carson. For a decade or more after I'd frequently visit CO to hike, mountain bike, snowboard etc. had friends in Denver/Co. Springs. Always thought it would be...

    Stock Market

    Yep, and now we're going to hear (it's already everywhere on the news etc.) that we need to stock up on staples and make all those big purchases in the next 87 days before the tariffs kick back in. The first article on Yahoo this morning "You have 87 days, what to stock up on now!" Every major...

    ARC or 419 rings-Kidd 10/22

    Can't go wrong either way. I've become an ARC convert myself, it's just simple, esp. to level the scope. I wish they'd make a canti mount though. Lots of great ring options, seekins, NF etc. I suspect that the raw aluminum and it oxidizing is part of the reason the 419 holds so amazingly...

    Straight-Pull? Which is the best?

    Yep, it's sad but after one experience with Beretta trying to warranty a s20 it would be hard to get me to touch another product that they are the service vendor for. It took me months to get them to respond to phone calls or their online service ticket system. When they did, they tried to...

    Non comp 22

    Yeah it seems like there's a lot of posts from users struggling to get close to typical CZ/Tikka accuracy out of them. Most seem to be around 1" at 50yds with ammo they like. A few have posted they got better noticeable accuracy when re-crowning the barrel. I've seen some posts where you can...

    New Sig Spear (6.8x51 Sig Fury) now shipping

    Pretty much, it's about time people started catching on to the overpriced worthlessness that is SIG. They have not released a single new design in the last decade that did not have major issues that never should have got past testing. We're not talking about things that show up 10,000 rounds...
