    Barrett MRAD 308 conversion kit

    Errr, I hope you realize that the AXMC is within about six ounces of the MRAD's weight, depending on the barrel configuration. You're not going to a lighter platform, y'know...

    Lefty in a right handed world - any tips on shooting a gun with the bolt on the wrong side

    Ehhh, I'm a lefty who prefers to just shoot a RH action. I've handled lefty boltguns plenty of times, but they never feel right. And I like the ability to see into the ejection port and visually confirm what's going on with the rifle. Against a very top-level shooter it's going to be a...

    Kaboom at Manatee today!

    Funny thing is, there was an incident out at Manatee last year that could very well have turned into a repeat of this thread. A benchrest shooter was out on the line doing some load development, IIRC, and he turned away from the bench for a minute during a string of fire. While he was turned...

    Law enforcement urban sniper rifle

    It's a tough situation that you're in, and clearly you're trying to do the best you can. It's also fairly clear that the Sheriff has no idea what he's purchasing, and based on descriptions, probably doesn't really understand what they're going to be doing with them, or why. Sadly that's not an...

    Suppressors SilencerCo Harvester

    Wait, so you were shooting .300 Win Mag through a can that consisted of nothing but a core and a fabric mirage cover over it? Is the core of a sealed design, or closer in cross-section to a Sparrow?

    Suppressors news about NFA trust changes

    I wonder if anyone realized that every additional letter written to ATF would result in further delay to pending action. If they had known, I wonder what would have occurred had we gotten 100,000 letters sent in. "ATF decides to spent next ten years responding to each objection, will amend...

    Accuracy International A* and SIG SSG3000 Bolt Action "Speed"

    I've got a wee bit of experience with AEs, AWs, and AXs, in both left and right hand configuration. I've only handled the SSG3000 (both original $3k model, and the new $1.5k US SIG version). Bolt manipulation is very similar between the two platforms, and I consider that to be a significant...

    Anybody ever run an AR with NO a buffer , only the spring?

    Allow me to translate from machinegun jive, good sir. "I've shot my 11.5" NFA registered M16 with three buffer springs, as I don't believe the M231 Port Firing Weapon possesses a buffer in its stock configuration, and most of those weapons run well as long as the bolt carrier group does not...

    Denver 7-11 Hostage (taker) Shot - why the torso?

    Looks like it's hidden by the support column out front in the footage of the shot. So maybe it was a 308 after all? At the height it impacted, it looks like the bullet must have gone through the guy's throat or neck. Someone forgot to take off their 100 yard dope and was aiming for the ear?

    Denver 7-11 Hostage (taker) Shot - why the torso?

    Anyone else wondering if that wasn't a 5.56 round from someone in the stack to the left? There's no visible pass-through into the glass doors behind him, and it appears that you can see the muzzle blast reflected in the window to the left of the hostage, followed by the muzzle lowering down...

    New AI rifles...what do you think...will they set a new trend, follow some others???

    So $3631 plus shipping, tax, etc becomes base pricing for the AT...for all purposes essentially the same as that rumored figure. The 20 MOA rail built in negates the need to buy aftermarket. Interesting indeed... How soon until they ship?

    New AI rifles...what do you think...will they set a new trend, follow some others???

    I'm not holding my breath on this one. At that price, it's got to be zero upgrades...so 24" plain muzzle, fixed stock, no rail segments, no buttspike, nothing. The primary differences would be the action design (and a decade of real-world use of the AE has shown there not to be any loss of...

    New AI rifles...what do you think...will they set a new trend, follow some others???

    It's going to be a serious shame though, if the AI pricing basically begins at $5k now, instead of $3k for a bare-bones AE MkIII.

    New AI rifles...what do you think...will they set a new trend, follow some others???

    Just seeing the one video that works so far, and another one being posted up for the AX308MC. The comment that the AT was replacing the AX leads me to wonder if the entire product line is being reduced down to just AT and AX platforms.

    New AI rifles...what do you think...will they set a new trend, follow some others???

    So what replaces the AE? Am I missing something here?

    Suppressors Differences in the Saker 762 vs the Harvester?

    You're not going to put a direct-thread can onto multiple 7.62 carbine platforms and swap them back and forth, nor could you easily swap it onto a 5.56 AR at will. They're meant for completely different rifle systems that only happen to share a 30 cal bore.

    Suppressors SilencerCo Harvester

    This. It was quiet, and the brake wasn't really an issue. The two guys shooting them said that they perceived noticeably less kick with the brake than the prototypes that didn't have a brake. It might kick up a bit more dust if you're shooting in a very dry and sandy environment, but it's...

    Having seen it in action, it's both quiet and damn lightweight. It'll probably sell on average for $550-600 at most places. I'd definitely pick one up...

    Catastrophic Failure

    I'm amazed that some people can't seem to fully read and comprehend Harvey's comments, specifically to the effect that "Should a complete physical examination of the rifle find no problems, it should be test-fired again in a safe manner to establish whether it was caused by an ammunition...
