    Differences between civilian & military AI AW

    Re: Differences between civilian & military AI AW The only difference between the AW series offered to civilians and those sold to militaries are the markings. Specifically I know the L115 has two white dots marking the two "safe" positions on the safety and a red dot to mark the "fire"...

    CMP M1 Garand?

    Re: CMP M1 Garand? Turn around time is apparently back to a reasonable pace, but it'll still take time, if you want one for Christmas you better order now. Fill out the paperwork with a copy of your ID, get it notarized at the legal office on base and yep, they'll ship the rifles via FedEx...

    I'm so fracked!

    Re: I'm so fracked! I'm not sure how much to blame the wandering POI on the SCAR itself. I remember some time back a member (his name was shawn but I don't remember his exact screen name) was using an AAC on his precision setup and he had the same complaint about wandering zero as the can...

    Suppressors Hanwei Swords...

    Re: Hanwei Swords... First time I ever saw a tactical katana by Phill Hartsfield I thought it looked fairly amateurish. I did a double take when I saw the $9000 price tag. However, I haven't seen enough of his work to fairly criticize and I understand he's been in the business for a long time...

    Suppressors Hanwei Swords...

    Re: Hanwei Swords... Hanwei is the industry leader in the area of functional martial arts swords and lots of folks like their stuff, but there's pleanty of great options out there. Just as it is with gun stuff the first question to ask before i can offer much advice is: what is your budget?

    Rifle Scopes Leupold 1.1-8x24 Mark 8

    Re: Leupold 1.1-8x24 Mark 8 Leupold has a history of getting gov contracts without much effort. Vendors are not allowed to charge the gov more than they charge the public. It seems a reasonable conclusion Leupold is pricing their scopes high because they are expecting or already have a...

    I'm so fracked!

    Re: I'm so fracked! The SCAR-17 is a very impressive rifle and I love the weight (a pound and a half less than the LMT) but I can't get over the stubby little handguard and bolt-on rail extentions aren't going to cut it for me. If FN releases the MK-20 model I'll definately give it a second...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Re: LMT .308 MWS That is a possibility I hadn't considered. I had my trimmer set up to shave off a few thousandths more brass than was necessary. I've actually readjusted the trimmer reciently to address this when I was re-calibrating my gear last load session but the newer brass has not...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Re: LMT .308 MWS I know, and again I'll restate I am getting no other pressure signs. That includes other tell tale signs in the primers. However it's probably safe to reaffirm that even with the same model gun and nearly identical load it's important to start any load off light and work...

    My problem with the AR

    Re: My problem with the AR The Magpul PRS offers a bit of a fix for that but a common complaint is that they are still forced to put the comb pretty far back because of the buffer tube which necessitates mounting the glass rather far back as well and makes charging the rifle a PITA. The EBR...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Re: LMT .308 MWS They show up in both, and I'm getting no other signs other than the dropped primers which is a common problem for .308 ARs. However it could still be telling so I'm treating it as a possibility. Either way I won't use a load that drops primers since it's too much of a...

    LMT .308 MWS

    Re: LMT .308 MWS Took my MWS to the range for the first time today to work up a load using 155 Sierra Palmas (because that's what i have available to me). Thus far the best performance has been using 45.3gr IMR 8208XBR with hornady match brass and 210M primers. Velocity was around 2680fps...

    ---KNIGHTS ARMAMENT SR-15 LOWER QUALITY AND VALUE?

    Re: ---KNIGHTS ARMAMENT SR-15 LOWER QUALITY AND VALUE? I guess that's what they're calling it now (E3 is just what they're calling the bolt). If you're getting a good deal I'd highly recomend it, for my tastes it's a big step up from the old AR reciever.

    ---KNIGHTS ARMAMENT SR-15 LOWER QUALITY AND VALUE?

    Re: ---KNIGHTS ARMAMENT SR-15 LOWER QUALITY AND VALUE? If you're talking about the SR-15 E3 lower I say go for it. The ambidextrous controls are really nice. The only downside to them is that there are a few non-standard parts on them and once you become familiar with them other AR-15 lowers...

    .308 or .300 win mag??????????

    Re: .308 or .300 win mag?????????? The answer to questions like this is always .308 Everyone in the precision game owns one and recommends them for good reason. Components are cheap, recipes are common, data is readily available and it takes a long time to wear a barrel out. I am a fan of...
