    Cracked Sphur Mount

    Sometimes its like you've hacked my cameras. I'm guessing a Weaver is also a garbage torque device :geek: I have a Fat Wrench at my place in TX so I don't have to tote my "good" one back and forth in the event we're making changes in the field. Here I was thinking I was ahead of the pack...

    Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!

    Part of the package from what I recall, it isn't in front of me at the moment. You have to have a smooth surface to clamp to.

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    I keep hearing about it but I haven't seen many real world consequences - but - I do wonder how much of that is because the general public is spending less on "luxury" items.

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Ahhh fuck. Live and learn. The 100 gr stuff seems great thus far.

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Fuck the old AAC, the new AAC, or ? I had mixed experiences with them and their products but they did come through on customer service when there were problems. Currently on the wait list to uppgrayydd my SDN6's and M42K to the Ranger series, so this is the crux of my questions about how when...

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    Way less than $2/rd. https://palmettostatearmory.com/aac-sabre-blade-black-tip-6-5-grendel-ammo-123-grain-20rd-box.html Supposedly loaded by Hornady, I don't know to what specification or variability - I did pick some up and will shoot it side by side with my other stuff, hopefully Friday. I...

    Would you get into 6.5 Grendel in 2024?

    My 12.5" Noveske's run 2300-2350 with the Hornady - concur that there is some variability.

    I've got 4 coming, two .750's and two .625's that Craddock is doing the assembly on. Will post results. Week of the 26-30th I should have them and range time with any luck. ETA - Who built yours/other components?

    Sons of Liberty Armorers Class - AAR

    I've had great luck with switchblocks. I've gotten away from other adjustables - I had a Superlative that was bad from the factory with a piece of metal shaving in the adjustment, and that made it a single shot when first built. Slowly but surely switching everything else out to the SB or...

    Sons of Liberty Armorers Class - AAR

    I'm not trying to debate that the amount of pressure you signed up for is the amount of gas you want. RE: there are bleed off gas blocks - exactly - and they are trying to deliver the amount of gas you want. You could well want more or less based on ammo, cans, specific set up. That is the...

    Sons of Liberty Armorers Class - AAR

    Maybe both. Less gas is like less horsepower. There is no benefit to a bad seal that leaks a bit out either. While it isn't a requirement per se, there is no benefit to anything other than 100% of the gas you're supposed to have.

    This site is an amazing technical resource, just have a thick skin, ducks back, and soak in the good parts

    Mike illustrated a good fit as one where he taps it on - not beats it - tap tap tap. Not finger loose slide, not warm up your shoulder.

    Battle Arms Development

    I can say the guy who told me BA was still "accurizing" gave me the impression that in his short tenure there, he's seen some shit.

    Battle Arms Development

    Don't know. I made my monthly "can I please have my guns" call and the new guy said - We're still waiting on BA to accurize the barrels. That's when I started laughing. I didn't know much about them other than my impression they were budget build barrels. The time between that call and them...

    Knights Armament parts availability

    Counterpoint - I'm less concerned with innovation that launching metal reliably and accurately. My experience is they're still doing that the right way. I'm trying to get a bullet out of a barrel. I'm fine with a 30 or 70 or 100+ year old system (I'm thinking of HK USP, AR, 1911 and various...
