    Rifle Scopes Millett LRS-1

    It too rubbed me the wrong way when I looked at one at a shop. First impression of it in person was that it is much bigger and heavier than it looks in pictures over the internet. Glass was pretty clear though and reviews on them seem good. For what it's worth I ended up going with a Vortex...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Ergonomics and ccw

    I will never again own a Taurus semi auto handgun... I would not trust my life to one, and I suggest you do the same. Last year I was torn between the Xds9 and the Shield 9mm. I don't think you could go wrong with either one, but I went with the Xds9 and have not looked back. The xds9 has been...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Why you DON'T like Glock.

    I am a big fan of Glock's, but they are not the only good reliable pistol on the market. Your defense of them and attack on the choices others have made on a pistol purchase are honestly a bit disturbing. The 3 most common polymer pistols Glock, Springfield XD's, and S&W M&P's, are all fine...

    New from Ohio

    Greetings from another Central Ohio shooter. I live just southeast of Columbus in Canal Winchester. The range I mostly go to and am a member at is Briar Rabbit in Zanesville which is about an hour drive for me. They have a 400 yard rifle range where you have to bring your own targets, and...

    First Upgrade for .308

    I am going to suggest you upgrade your scope before getting a stock. I'm not an experienced long range shooter, but I can tell you from the experience I do have that for long range shooting a scope is everything! Like mentioned above it is important to be able to make adjustments on your scope...

    UFC 175 this Saturday!

    Sucks that Barao withdrew due to passing out during his weight cut. This was already one of the weakest PPV cards that I could remember, and now it has really gone down the crapper. They replaced Barao with a fighter from the undercards so it will be interesting to see how he does against...

    New stock for my r700 sps tactical !

    Looks great. You go a damn good rifle from the factory if it is shooting 1/2-3/4 MOA at 100 yards! I used to own a SPS Tactical 223, I kept it all factory and the best groups I could shoot with it were about 1 MOA with FGMM 69 grain SMK's. The stock on mine would touch the barrel when shooting...

    Gunsmithing Magwell and main spring housing installation on 1911

    I will be using my Kimber 1911 in some upcoming USPSA matches this fall, so I thought it was time to put a magwell on it to aid in reloads. I was limited in options because I use slim line grips on the 1911. With slim line grips a standard magwell does not match up with them and leaves a sort of...

    Cleaning rod and bore guide

    Thank you for all the responses and advice. I have decided on purchasing the Tipton Deluxe Carbon Fiber 1 Piece Cleaning rod in a 44" length. As far as the bore guide, I think I may go with this one: Pro-Shot The Stopper Adjustable Bore Guide 22 Centerfire to 30 Cal Anyone have any...

    Southwest Ammo Group Order taking more than Six Months now and still No SHOW!!!

    I agree with you 100%. The last few days I have been searching for a company to purchase some ammo, and from my small research I have found that a couple different ones seem to behave similar. Unless an expected delay is noted before purchasing, I expect my product to arrive in a timely manner...

    Cleaning rod and bore guide

    I know this has been asked before, so please bare with me. I am in the market for a decent cleaning rod and bore guide for my Savage 10fcp-k 308 with 24" barrel. I am not looking to break the bank on this but don't want junk either. If anyone can lead me in the right direction with some advice...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Smith & Wesson M&P Night Sights?

    I run Meprolight night sights. They will run around $100 with free shipping from Optics Planet. They are quality sights and I personally like them a bit better than Trijicon, but can't go wrong with either one.

    Custom Reloads of Dallas

    I was interested in placing an order today, but had a couple questions so I decided to call first. After a few attempts the results were the same, strait to voicemail message, and the voicemail itself was full. This was an instant red flag for me so I decided to look at some reviews online which...

    UFC 175 this Saturday!

    I read this earlier on mmaweekly and laughed. Silva is a legend, but his antics in the last couple years are really hurting his image.

    I love it at Rayners range. I have not rang the 1000 yard steel YET, but hopefully by the end of the year I can get to it. There really are a lot of friendly and knowledgable long range shooters that go there. It would be great to have a meetup there sometime this fall with some of the members...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Concealed Carry: What is your setup?

    I love the variety of concealed carry setups that are presented on this thread! It really just goes to show how beautiful this craft is, so many good choices out there that everyone can pick their own flavor and size that suits them best.

    I would be happy to meet up sometime and do some shooting. It is a bit of a drive for you, but Rayners Range is a great place, and Briar Rabbit is as well. Know of anyone with private property that you can shoot at to at least 2-300 yards?
