    Accuracy on an AR

    Re: Accuracy on an AR I live about 2 hours north of you in Woodville. If you want to, after the 'Cup is over next week you can bring the rifle up and go shoot it at my range. I have a scope in a quick release that is more suitable to verify accuracy. There is a lot of difference in a 2.5#...

    Eberlestock chassis

    Re: Eberlestock chassis Just watched the video. I will be keeping a very close eye on the ship date and price of these. That is a sexy stock for sure. The only thing I would like to see is the ability to use AIAW mags and a little longer cheek piece would be nice to help accomadate...

    Texas State Bolt Rifle Championship

    Re: Texas State Bolt Rifle Championship Looks like I'll be working weekends in May. Wish I could put in for this one as I've heard that all of Kevin's matches are great. See y'all at the Cup and maybe the fall match.

    Why don't you see more side charging handle setups

    Re: Why don't you see more side charging handle setups Where the hell did the OP mention that he wanted opinions about gas-piston uppers. Read the f'ing title and don't make everyone read through this entire thread picking out info about side charging handles from the damn never ending...

    Remington R-25 with Camo Stripped off.....

    Re: Remington R-25 with Camo Stripped off..... Search JP Enterprises. They will sell you one directly or you can get them at Midway, etc. Really nice handguards and I'm thinking of getting one myself. BTW- the rifle looks great. I like the two tone look and A2 buttstock. Clean.

    Question for those using an Aimpoint 3x/Larue flip

    Re: Question for those using an Aimpoint 3x/Larue flip Larue has great customer service and will take care of anything that is not right. If you haven't heard from them by Monday afternoon I'd give them another call. They are not as big of a company as you would think and probably won't be...

    Gunsmithing call me crazy but i am building it

    Re: call me crazy but i am building it No reason I see that you can't take material off of the "heavy" side and even it up a bit. It would be a pretty quick job with a good belt sander and follow up by hand sanding. Might make the butt a little thin, but it's not likely to break due to recoil.

    Rifle Scopes BARSKA SWAT

    Re: BARSKA SWAT You don't have to have a 16 power scope to reach out a couple of hundred yards. If you want to do benchrest or small paper targets beyond 300yds, then maybe you do need 16 power. I've got a 3-15 Premier that I regularly shoot at 1,000yds and beyond. I'm thinking about...

    Rifle Scopes BARSKA SWAT

    Re: BARSKA SWAT I've looked through this scope at Gander Mountain and was not impressed at all. It had a $1,289 price tag and I nearly dropped it. I told the salesman that it was a misprint and supposed to be $289. It sat there for almost 2 years with the $1,289 price tag. For the...

    Movie Theater Swamp People

    Re: Swamp People We just completed our annual gator hunt today. This morning a guy caught a 9'4" gator that went 180lbs. The gator had 3 gun shots in the head and it was still very much alive. He said, "We shot him 3 times." Yes, but it was in the skull. A nail with a hammer driven in...
