    Johnny football does not go first

    It's "Johnny Cleveland" now, so all you Johnny-haters can just get over it. I can't wait for him to SHRED the Steeler secondary like a block of soft, milky-white Brie cheese. He'll do it faster than Michael Sams can give his Italian boyman a tongue-kiss on national t.v. ;) Yep, can't...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Meltdown 10mm compact 1911 build

    Congrats on the build. Hope it comes out exactly the way you want it. That said, in a "Commander"-size 10mm, I'd skip the light rail for several reasons. First, since you're going with gutter sights, the light isn't going to add more precision to your point-of-aim anyway. Second, even if...

    Drank the Geissle Kool-Aid Finally

    I run Geissle's triggers in all my ARs, so I appreciate what they can do, but that story is awesome. Thanks for sharing it! :cool:

    GAP-10 reliability???

    Okay, dude, you're a genius. :rolleyes: Nobody was debating the general performance of such ammo because it isn't an issue in this thread. Factory "match-grade" ammo, for the GAP-10, refers to the known standard for such - Federal GMM .308 ammo and similar precision loads marketed by...

    GAP-10 reliability???

    The "Search" function is your buddy ... Reliability issues with one user's GAP-10 discussed here: http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-semi-auto-rifles/239151-new-gap10-problem.html I have one on order, as do several other Hide members, so threads like this made me nervous...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns new eaa pistol shoots low & left

    Well, even if someone did make an aftermarket .45acp barrel for a K2 it would certainly be more expensive than $20.00, plus shipping ... ... So, if you think that's really the problem, I'd roll the dice and ship the gun back to EAA along w/ a cover letter describing in DETAIL what the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns new eaa pistol shoots low & left

    No experience with actually shooting the .45 K2, but I did have an unhappy experience long ago with EAA's so-called "customer service" regarding warranty work on a Witness pistol. Got the gun back 3 weeks later and it still had the same problem. The 'smith's note attached to the warranty card in...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New 10mm pistol ...?

    ... if they import it. M&P-ish, sort of. Link to the forum where this popped up: GRAND POWER FORUM ? View topic - 10mm Auto Anyone seen, handled and/or shot this pistol in another chambering, e.g., 9mm? :cool:

    Creepy Guy at Work...

    What you've clearly described is a shape-shifting Klingon. He looks like us but acts like, well, what he really is ... Now, either shoot the alien or call the Men in Black and let them do it. :cool:

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20

    That's my hope too. I'd also like to see EAA start importing the 10mm variant of the Turkish-made, all-steel Sarsilmaz K2, a CZ-style double stack DA/SA pistol. The .45 K2 model is already on dealer shelves in my area. The 10mm model supposedly holds 15+1. I've handled, though not shot, the...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 20

    Over the last 25+ years, the G20 is definitely the most versatile autoloader that is chambered for the world's most versatile "service cartridge" extant. The 10mm's huge power curve allows you to choose from among numerous factory loads using JHPs & FMJs of various weights and styles...

    Larue Lt158/Leupold Mk6/Flat Top AR Question

    I went through the same mounting issue but w/ a Leupy Mk6 1-6x 34mm that I got for my LMT LM8 MRP. I wanted QD and very low, so I went with the AD-RECON-SL mount that ORD recommended. Height placement is just as he said, but the other factor to think about is your stock set-up and how high...

    Why Would Anyone Want to Shoot a Vintage Sniper Rifle?

    didithurt: The red stripe signals that this Remington is a unique Lend-Lease 1903 from WW2, a so-called "red stripe Remington," one of many we sent the British in early 1942. The Brits painted all the Rem 1903s they got from us with a red stripe so that during a blitz or Nazi ground invasion...

    Why Would Anyone Want to Shoot a Vintage Sniper Rifle?

    Don't know if this technically qualifies as a vintage "sniper," but this is my low-serial numbered (30268XX) Remington 1903 ... Note the infamous red-stripe. Was told emphatically by a Remington '03 collector, "Do not scrape that paint off!" ;) Great shooter. Took it to the Nat'l...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 29

    Seems like I've read more & more across the boards about a lot of hunters & guides in Alaska, and even those in the lower 48 where bears or mt. lions roam, replacing their heavy big-bore wheelguns for one or the other of the Glock 10mms, mentioning as reasons both weight as well as mag capacity...

    Why Would Anyone Want to Shoot a Vintage Sniper Rifle?

    .... Because they're fun, they're cool, and they're likely to be more effective in a real-deal conflict involving ordinary folk, say, L.A. riots, Katrina aftermath, WWZ, or [insert here your own catastrophy of choice] than most would think. :cool:

    Lightweight SPR style AR-15

    Just a learning question, but I'm considering replacing the A2 FH on the 16" barrel of my 7.62 LM8 MRP with Battlecomp's BABC. The unit is supplied w/ a crush washer. Are you aware of any accuracy-detracting concerns with the 7.62 BABC? I haven't see any negative reports from people who are...
