    Re: What large pack do you use for extended missions? As LoneWolf points out, there are differences between missions... I see people hauling around rucks with straps and buckles flying everywhere on "missions" where a regular deployment bag with a shoulder strap would work way better... When...

    Suppressors Anyone use a suppressor for self defense shtf?

    Re: Anyone use a suppressor for self defense shtf? I apologize for not clarifying, From my impression through statistics and people I have talked to though, it seems like most of the self defense cases take place at fairly close range, and if you take out a possible attacker at 50yds+ with a...

    Suppressors Which 80 series 1911?

    Re: Which 80 series 1911? Now, I have personally seen an 80-series Colt with a cracked frame from a combination of internal toolmarks and most likely a flaw in the metal. The slide-to-frame fit, the 4-finger bushing (designed to cut production cost) and less than optimal QC resulted in...

This has been witnessed at the local...

    .223 for newbie

    Re: .223 for newbie I have a Remington VSSF .223. Now, I am kind of biased here since my 1st rifle ever was a Rem 700 ADL (from what I remember) caliber .308, and I have always had an affection for the 700-action. This one came with the HS Precision stock, fluted 26" SS barrel 1-12 twist. The...
