    Rifle Scopes Poll and Feedback on fixed 10x.

    Re: Poll and Feedback on fixed 10x. I've been debating between a new IOR 10x42 and a used USO ST-10 for a little while. I'm about to buy the IOR. I'm used to MOA turrets and it seems like the best way to spend my money.

    Suppressors AK SBR Can

    Re: AK SBR Can I'm satisfied with my Delta P Brevis 7.62x39mm silencer on a 16" AK. It's for 24mm threads though. An AK silences pretty well compared to other semi-autos in my limited experience.

    Night Vision Changing stocks to accomodate new scope...

    Re: Changing stocks to accomodate new scope... What mount are you using with the D740? I just got a Wilson Combat Accu-Rizer D740 Mount and it mounts the scope low enough to get a pretty good cheek-weld with the CAR stock.

    Night Vision Help mounting a D740 on a AIAW?

    Re: Help mounting a D740 on a AIAW? Replacing the the shuttered eye cup with a Butler Creek #30 scope cover will give you several more inches of eye relief. But it does make the green glow around your eye visible to others.

    I want to mount a PVS-14 or D740 on a Ruger 77/44. Is the Warne picatinny rail a good base for this? Is there anything that sits any lower?

    Rifle Scopes SS 10x42 turret knobs working loose

    The set screws holding the turret knobs on my 2-month old SWFA SS 10x42 scope are loosening from recoil. My first thought is to use medium-strength loc-tite on the screws. Is there any problem with that, or does anybody have a better solution (aside from buying a USO 10x ?

    Longest barrel length, but still sub-sonic?

    Re: Longest barrel length, but still sub-sonic? In central Alabama... Out of a 4 3/4" Ruger MK-II, all of the HV .22LR that I tried was supersonic. My 4" Ruger 22/45 MK-III is subsonic with most, but not all HV ammo. I want to suggest that you get your barrel threaded for the 22Sparrow...

    Pact MKIV XP timer & chronograph

    Need Krylon Paint Help Please!

    Re: Need Krylon Paint Help Please! Krylon will work. It will rub off of the corners and sharp edges but it's easy to touch up again. I use WD-40 as a cleaning solvent on my painted guns and it doesn't remove the paint.
