    Re: Help me find a rifle with my requrements <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: nly205</div><div class="ubbcode-body">High accuracy and light weight usually only happen with the proper application of money in an AR. You may want to really consider...

    Free Float tube recommendations

    Re: Free Float tube recommendations I am looking for the same thing for my AR build. The best deals I have seen that come from quality manufacturers are the Troy TRX Extreme (and the VTAC Extreme, which is the same thing just with different shaped vent holes), and the Midwest Industries SS...

    Help me find a rifle with my requrements

    Re: Help me find a rifle with my requrements The POF P308 does not have a reciprocating charging handle, and even the 20" barreled version has a carbine-length handguard and gas system, so it does not meet my sight radius and handguard length requirements... aside from just looking silly with...

    Help me find a rifle with my requrements

    I am on an ongoing quest to own the most capable battle rifle available. I am willing to spend the necessary dough to get what I want, within reasonable limits. I have some requirements that I'd like to see in a battle rifle, and I was wanting your input on what the most feasable way to put...

    DPMS 308 barrels on sale, $160

    Re: DPMS 308 barrels on sale, $160 god damn that's a heavy barrel. That's one big reason why I sold my LR-308C and bought an M1A.

    Marksmen issued better M14 rifles in Afghanistan

    Re: Marksmen issued better rifles in Afghanistan For a battle rifle, I like the M-14 over the AR for all the reasons that Boston's Gun Bible rated it higher... it has a reciprocating bolt handle that engages positively in both directions; it has a gas piston system instead of direct...

    NightShroud AK74 FH ... Lighter, Shorter, Better

    Re: NightShroud AK74 FH ... Lighter, Shorter, Better Hmm, during the Clinton gun ban years, I had an AK-74 without a muzzle attachment of any kind, and that thing had almost no muzzle flash to speak of at night. Now with an AKSU, or maybe a 7.62 AK, I can see the point of something like this.

    Gas Gun Trigger Pull Question

    Re: Gas Gun Trigger Pull Question Lock time isn't necessarily different between a gas gun and a blowback or direct impingement gun. Lock time is all about the mass of the object that strikes the primer. Bolt actions have such short lock time because their firing pin is just a little...

    Marksmen issued better M14 rifles in Afghanistan

    Re: Marksmen issued better rifles in Afghanistan Ultimately, any service rifle is going to be a compromise, based on the political realities of the day... it has been known for over 100 years that the optimal caliber for a battle rifle, considering max effective range, trajectory, ballistic...

    M1A Upgrade

    Re: M1A Upgrade What kind of ammo are you shooting? That can make a big difference. Shooting Portugese surplus stuff, I can't seem to do too much better than 2 MOA with my Standard M1A from unsupported field positions. But with British Radway Green surplus, I can do about 1.25 MOA. I...

    Tactical Mini 14 vs AR

    Re: Tactical Mini 14 vs AR The older Mini 14s are notorious jam-o-mattics. They have apparently recently undergone a bit of product improvement, and apparently the ones after a certain serial number actually shoot pretty decently. Still, the AR will tend to be a little more accurate. And I...

    Marksmen issued better M14 rifles in Afghanistan

    Re: Marksmen issued better rifles in Afghanistan I love the M-14, and there is nothing I would rather carry into battle, but I have to question the wisdom of the military using the Sage stocks on the rifles. I get that a telescoping buttstock is helpful, since the troops have to wear bulky...
