    Larue Or KAC..

    My EMC is a bit more accurate than my bud's OBR in both our hands with same ammo. His EMC is even with his OBR. A small sampling of 3 fwiw. Shane edited to add by a bit I'm talking roughly = or < .2 moa.

    Is the POF P308 G4 worth the extra thousand over Ruger SR-762?

    I think there should be some clarity between recoil and muzzle rise. A lot of people count them as the same thing. I see a distinct difference between them. My personal opinion on my rifles. SCAR Least recoil, most muzzle rise of the 3. SR25 EMC very close to recoil of the SCAR if not...

    St Louis riot

    I think a lot of altercations may not start out as racial but degrade into it after the fact. But this one clearly was..... Articles: Beaten to Death at McDonald's

    Looking to re-retire. Need suggestions

    Greg, I'm with you brother. Its no longer just living in restrictive states. They are indeed out to get us at this point. Jersey has been doing a great job manufacturing felons instead of catching the real ones!

    Gun Laws In Tennessee

    Just an observation. Part of the dog issue as described to me in the NC/GA/TN area, especially in the mountain regions, is the view on cats and dogs is so dim, no one gets their animals fixed and feral animals run rampant. It sounds like a lot of these interactions described are these types and...

    Gun Laws In Tennessee

    Guys, thanks for the replies. In the situations described, it sounds like repeated lack of responsibility. And as much as I might hate the animal is paying the price for the stupid owner, I understand. Giving out my number would probably be a good idea. In 5 years my dog only got out once when a...

    Gun Laws In Tennessee

    Yea I've already been informed what bless your heart really means. :) On the dog topic, I understand about aggression or running dear but accidents happen, as carful as one is, sometimes they get out. Especially with the type of dogs I have. Escape artists! But Id hate to get into a clan war...

    Gun Laws In Tennessee

    TN was heavily on my list of move to states. But I kept hearing from former TN residents that its a tough place to move to if "you aint from round here". The jist of it was, seems friendly when passing through until you move here. The other common theme was that people with a soft spot for...

    Where to move to in America?

    Believe me, wherever I go, I will not be bringing any North East tendencies with me! In fact when I travel for biz to states like TX, AZ, KY they all say, "you don't seem like you come from there, you seem like your from here" :) Unfortunately every time I'm in one of these states I usually only...

    Where to move to in America?

    I fought the fight as much as I could here in NJ. Founding board member of the New Jersey Second Amendment Society etc etc. But I have simply reached a point that I have grown tired of a state determined to create convicts out of citizens. I just cant stay in a state where a scumbag beats his...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Understand the reference. You are saying your stock guns have run fine. Just about every well know smith out there says that a stock Colt will need a reliability package of some sort. This dovetails with the bazillion, "my new Colt is having issues" threads. Its not facetious at all. I was...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Fair enough. But keep in mind that the OP also asked what separates the top from the bottom. "Shane45: The letter "I" in reference to yourself was used a whole bunch in your previous post I replied to. So you can put your beliefs based on your experience (and...GASP...emotions) on here, but I...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Asperly Aimless, your starting to sound clueless! My tack has not changed at all. Your just missing the points presented to you. The POINT was the needs of a 2 box a year shooter that only shoots at paper are met by almost anything. The differences between the top and bottom don't mean anything...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    So your sample of a couple pistols trumps the wisdom of those that have had hundreds if not thousands of 1911's through their hands? Im sure there is a Llama 1911 out there that has been a perfect storm of assembly and is dead reliable. Doesn't mean I want to run out and buy one, the odds are...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns 1911 Quality vs. Price

    Asperly, I am a long time student of the 1911. And like Bob have done a few rounds on the 1911 centric forums. So when I hear the rhetoric about "everything else is a copy" it triggers the rhetoric red flag. For being a hard core 1911 fan, I don't own a single Colt. But then again I don't own a...

    I heavily agree with R. Moran and heavily disagree with Asperely Aimless.

    Any other Falconers here?

    "I can tell you Falconry isn't a sport. Its a lifestyle." This was the conclusion I came to when I researched BOP. I love birds! I ended up going a slightly different direction and went down the exotic bird "lifestyle" instead but always think about BOP's. I particularly like owls. I have 2...
