    Rifle Scopes Am I going to be dissapointed with a bushnell HDMR?

    Bushnell pros After a ton of research I found Bushnell is far better than nightforce and for the money is hard to beat. Instead of spending the 1000 more on a S&B or like scopes I can invest in more projects. I have the 1-8.5 if I remember for my 5.56, the HDMR 3.5-21 with H-59 (it is...

    I heard that the gen 4 had a different recoil spring setup. I will do that so she has more control.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    I think that All that is left to put on the gun is an extended mag well for faster reloads and it's pretty set up. Any other suggestions that would make the gun more badass. Some slides serrations and some CNC cuts in the slide to make it lighter to decrease the mass of the slide therefore...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    Sorry for the error yes slide stop and for the price of 15 bucks I'm going to set it up this way and if she want something to change then I will change it. That is one good thing about glock you can customize it in so many ways and it does not cost that much to do so.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    I agree with the above and reviews I have read comp models are out. I think the problem she has racking the pistol can be solved with about 500 rounds down range, practice practice and I read an article a out getting the slide texturized at home with a dremel. I have all the attachments...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    The problem with the C models is the loss of night vision I have heard about and there is also the restrictions when you have to fire from a close to body situation. Does anyone have any C models that can shine some light on these concerns.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Tricking out a Glock 23

    I am looking for a 22, 23 or 27 for my wife as she finally gets it and can handle the recoil after she listened to me. So now I am looking for I think a 23 for her because it has capacity and plenty or grip for her to control the weapon. I have been looking at different lasers and wanted to...

I am blessed to have a wife who saw that and came home with the following. Keep in mind I have the following guns savage...

    Re: Can I rebarrel a 30.06 Weatherby to 6.5 Creedmoor? I have a savage in 30-06 that I have turned into a project and I have after alot of research gone with the 280AI. It was a toss up with the 284 and the 280AI. From the companies that I called in working with the action and feeding the 6.5...

    Old Model Savage rebuild--Help with a sanity check

    Re: Old Model Savage rebuild--Help with a sanity check I have my gunsmith who is telling me that a 280 Ackley would be better than the 284 but from what I have read on the hide I would think otherwise.

    Gunsmithing New build caliber check and build list check

    Re: New build caliber check and build list check After being schooled about the long action I believe my only and best option for this savage build is a 280 ackley improved. The case capacity is just shy of the 7mm's. Any other ideas as to a better load?

    Gunsmithing New build caliber check and build list check

    Re: New build caliber check and build list check Are there any limitations that Iam going to run into in using a savage long action in a 6.5 creedmoor? This may seem like a dumb question but is there any way to limit the bolt throw? Kinda extreme though
