    Amazed by a SCAR 17

    Just chiming in on the 17 which I have owned and shot the last several years. I outfitted mine with an ACOG TA11J, changed out the charging handle, grip and added the Geissele super scar trigger on it.

    Starbucks is requesting customers not carry guns in the store.

    I frequent Starbucks quite often and in my state can open carry. However I prefer my double shot of espresso to be accompanied by 10 shots of 45 via concealed carry. No reason to get the natives restless, express my views to idiot strangers or be distracted over a good cup of coffee. I like...

    Rifle Scopes Badger Ring Height - Studied The Sticky & Followed Forumulas

    Thank for the input OFG.... This gives me an additional data point from the field. I am thinking the medium Badger rings a .885 might be the safe choice. Since I have a McMillan A5 with the adjustable riser I am not overly concerned about going a tad high.

    Rifle Scopes I love Nightforce!!

    Good for you! What NF model/s? For what its worth I would rather read a thread where the OP is is stimulating the economy as opposed to selling his gear due to a job loss! Maybe some details as of the purchase will cause others to develop SSS - Scope Stockholm Syndrome and bond with you -...
