    One-piece scope mounts for long-range AR.

    Spuhr and Geissele are my go to AR10/15 scope mounts. I've used a couple of LaRue mounts over the years as well (but have generally transitioned away from them). Zero issue with any of those three over many thousands of rounds. NF and Badger also come highly recommended. And there are...

    LPVO and RDS combo

    I'm digging the RMR at 45 degrees on this set up. But no NODs.

    Compass Lake enhanced Ar-10

    Roger that. I put Colt on the list because Colt AR15/M16s have been very reliable in my experience and can take hard use. So, my experience is that they are "duty grade."

    Muzzle Brake options/opinions?

    I don't like comps. I know they have a place with the gamers (and I used to be one...although I stayed "tactical" and never ran a comp) but the blast and concussion is not worth it in my book. I have seen no difference in mechanical accuracy between a comp and a FH. The comp can help you...

    Compass Lake enhanced Ar-10

    As others have stated, I love my CLE barreled SPR. And their service has been absolutely fantastic. But if I needed a duty grade weapon, I'd be looking somewhere else. My priorities would be a manufacturer that has a reputation for duty grade, hard use weapons. Some that come to mind...

    Genuine Swiss Arms

    Thanks. And you raise a valid point re: spare parts. But this more a collectable than a SHTF gun....although I plan on shooting the damn thing....eventually. I got bit by the A4 clone bug and the fever is high.

    Genuine Swiss Arms

    I have a San Swiss 553R. Uber high quality and a very expensive AK. I've yet to do anything with it though. SBR and some sort of optic are on the agenda. I wouldn't mind a 553 in 5.56 but the 7.62x39 round makes a lot more sense to me in an SBR than 5.56. Don't get me wrong though...

    Which of these handguards?

    SLR rails are fantastic. Not sure they are as sturdy as other options but the machining and detail is first rate.

    Help pick first suppressed rifle

    I have slowly acquired a nice little stamp collection. And I love suppressing 556 and 308. However, the most bang for the buck and impressive suppressors are easily the .22 and PCC cans. Running a suppressed .22 is grin inducing. Stupid, stupid quiet. My scorpion 9mm PCC is quieter than a...

    POF and my Incredibly Disappointing Experience......

    I think you are spot on. They were essentially publicly shamed into making this right. I applaud them for doing the right thing in the end. But, frankly, it should not have been this hard for a long time customer to be taken care of. Nor should it have taken the threat of losing new...

    Deciding on a Compass Lake Engineering chamber for a AR-15

    I received my CLE chambered 17.9 Bartlein earlier this year. I've tried roughly 6 different types of 556 and .223 ammo. No issues. Very pleased so far.

    LMT DMR

    Roger that. I like trying different things. So, long as it fits, why not try it given LMT's reputation for quality kit? Quick google search seemed to indicate his asking price is a reasonable deal. I like the PRS on my JP LRP-07 large frame. But it is heavy.

    LMT DMR

    LMT does not make bad kit. But the PRS, albeit heavy, is a very nice stock. Do you really gain anything in the swap? The two look suspiciously similar.

    Rifle Scopes Why I stick with Nightforce and Leupold.....

    Damn. This thread needs to be nuked. The signal to noise ratio has long since deteriorated such that whatever use this thread may have had has long since evaporated.

    Building a 223 precision AR...barrel?

    Real nice parts you got there...gonna be a nice build.. Suggest you call CLE. Theresa has always been the one to answer email. If you call, she will let you speak directly with a Smith who is likely the one to spin your barrel and./or build your upper.

    Rifle Scopes New high power Nightforce NX8?

    Funny. That was my exact first thought. Looking cool is half the battle...... :cool:

    Rifle Scopes Why I stick with Nightforce and Leupold.....

    I'm no Leupy fanboi, although I do own a Mk5 3.6 which I admittedly am really enjoying on my SPR. The Mk5, especially the 3.6, is a damn nice scope with plenty of innovation. Reticles are lacking a bit. But the scope is almost peerless with respect size, weight, price, feature set and...

    Building a 223 precision AR...barrel?

    Great choice with CLE. I think you are going to be happy. I have multiple Geissele triggers. But the HSNM is beyond awesome. Think SSA-E but with the ability to adjust each stage to the weight YOU want it to be. Same feel, same fantastic break. It is superior to my JP factory LRP-07...

    What gas gun to suppress?

    Perhaps my reading skills are lacking, but have you tried multiple magazines by chance?
