    Gunsmithing What's my best course of action here? Howa bedding/DBM job.

    Hey all, I'm in a bit of a bind here. I have a Howa 1500 purchased a long time ago, and it's been happily sitting in a Manners T2. Several years back, my wife bought me PTG DBM for it, but I never had it installed. I figured it was time to change that. I took the rifle, stock, and DBM to a...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x32 availability

    As tempting as it is to jump to one of the guys who have it in stock. I'm sticking to my commitment to Scott, who has been a champ with email and has always taken care of me before. It's not like the ammo situation around me is getting any better, and I've got other rifles that have been...

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x32 availability

    I ordered the MRAD version, I was far enough down the backorder list when I placed the order that I didn't get one of the shipment Scott got during the summer. I've been waiting on one ever since.

    Rifle Scopes PST 2.5-10x32 availability

    I've had one on backorder with Liberty Optics since April. I'd be curious as to how you got one ahead of me.

    New US Army Camouflage Selection Leaked

    It's a fair point, and one that's been made before by several people. The issue really just comes down to employment of those assets. The Army, Marines, Navy, and Air Force (well...mainly the Air Force) all think very differently on how to best utilize air power. The whole reason that the Army...

    New US Army Camouflage Selection Leaked

    Yeah, the Marines have always gotten the shaft when it comes to funding and equipment. As a USAF guy myself, I'm well aware of the historical problems associated with the services that are considered "spin offs" of another service. Had the USAF stayed the US Army Air Corps, I'm sure we would be...

    New US Army Camouflage Selection Leaked

    The Canadian CADPAT was licensed to the Marine Corps, recolored, and called MARPAT. Had the other services just been allowed to use that pattern, I imagine this whole service specific camo BS would never have happened. But because the Marines decided they were special deserved their own pattern...

    QD mount for an AR. which one works?

    I have Noveske on all of mine, but the Fortis and Daniel Defense would work just as well. Just makes sure you check the fit between the plate and the QD release. There have been a lot of cases I've seen where the release was just a hair too small for the mount and just pulled out with enough...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex 6.5-20x44 for an M1A Loaded? Total Scope Newb Here.

    I ran that scope on my M1A loaded for about a year. It worked just fine. <img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pJtI9OxtFPA/T4n6282W-2I/AAAAAAAAAvE/2DDVQEPLBQs/w975-h653-no/DSC_0036.JPG"> I have both a Sadlak mount and the M14.ca CASM, either works fine. I've since moved the scope to...

    New US Army Camouflage Selection Leaked

    I believe ATACS entered into the competition long ago. But they were eliminated fairly early on. The thing that killed most of the patterns in the contest was how visible they were in the IR and NIR spectrum. Stuff like the 3 color desert works great in the day, but under NODs they looked like...

    Rifle Scopes Optimal power for fixed zoom?

    I was all set to get a fixed 10x for my M1A, but there's something that keeps nagging at me for a fixed 6X. At the ranges you're talking, a 6X would give you enough magnification and a very nice field of view for most any use. But if you're looking to shoot tiny groups, I would think somewhere...

    Rifle Scopes Mount for mark 6 44mm/AR15

    I'm a big fan of ADM mounts, and have always been very happy with their performance on my weapons. I do have a .308 AR project in work, though delayed due to parts availability, and I was planning on checking out the AADLAND Engineering mounts. I don't really need QD for that gun, and these...

    Rifle Scopes Liberty optics

    Scott is definitely easy to work with! He's earned my loyalty repeatedly. I've had a 2.5-10x32 PST backordered since April, and even though I keep getting antsy, Scott is always johnny-on-the spot with responding to emails and letting me know the status of the order. I could have cancelled and...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone else anxiously awaiting a new Vortex?

    Sigh...I didn't make it on this round of back orders with Liberty, either. Scott says 6-8 weeks for next batch of 2.5-10x32 FFP Mrad. Hopefully I'm higher up on that list. Oh well, that's just more time to save for more toys.

    For the Howa owners

    Hey all, I've got a .308 1500 sitting in a MCS 2 right now. I've been weighing the next step to take with it. For you guys that own them, who does good quality work on them? I know the metric threads throw a lot of smiths off and they don't want to deal with it. I'll be looking to have the...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone else anxiously awaiting a new Vortex?

    Same here. I have the 2.5-10x32 on back order with Scott as well. It's going on my recce, replacing a TR24G. But I have a 6.8 SPR in mind that the PST may find its way to in the future.

    Remember the Great .30-06 Debate 10 Years Ago?

    Re: Remember the Great .30-06 Debate 10 Years Ago? The capabilities of the '06 is something I've been trying to learn more and more about these last few months. I've followed a lot of the discussions by the OP and Montana Marine with great interest. I have a Garand now, and two .308s. I've...
