    budget AR build barrel question

    Re: budget AR build barrel question BigAndy, i've had some groups with a DPMS barrel that were WAY too tight to be a DPMS barrel! my good buddy has one that i've seen shoot 1/2 - 3/4 moa out to 400 yards. pretty damn impressive from a low buck gun. hell, he was out-shooting guys with custom...

    Stag Arms Model 3G

    Re: Stag Arms Model 3G i think the most attractive parts of the Stag 3G are the Samson forearm, the Stainless & fluted barrel, and the Dueck Defense sights (optional for an extra $250 or so) i just finished building my AR with a Palmetto lower, CMMG kit, MOE stock, Troy Battle Rail Alpha...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns XDm or sig 226 elite, 9mm

    Re: XDm or sig 226 elite, 9mm the reason XDm's are cheaper is because they are made in Croatia. the frames are pumped out in injection molds VERY quickly. SIG's are more expensive because (at least with the higher price ones) the frames are all either Aluminum or Stainless Steel. none of...

    Name That Muzzle Brake

    Re: Name That Muzzle Brake if you liked the other brake, i'd ask Big Green to either find the damn thing or buy one for you. that brake that you have is OBVIOUSLY not the one you wanted (regardless of whether or not you like it after the fact). Remington should make this good

    planning my first build

    Re: planning my first build very true. i guess what i'm actually planning is more of a mod-as-you-go kinda thing. the thought going in my mind is find a USED rifle (and 7mm Rem Mag's are plentiful around here) and re-stock it with a used stock. notice a theme here? also, i work at a gun shop...

    planning my first build

    Re: planning my first build yeah, i'm leaning to the hunting side more. if i like shooting it at the longer ranges, i might lean to a target gun. however, the first one has to be light enough to pack all day long, and powerful enough to drop a bear or moose or something (hopefully). i'd like...

    planning my first build

    Re: planning my first build i like that there's a lot of information on 'em, and for Alaskan bear, i want something that will knock it over. and most of my hunting is done under 100 yards. last year i shot a big doe at about 15-20 yards with my 357 revolver! i'm saying that this rifle won't...

    Thinking about my first Bolt Action rifle.

    Re: Thinking about my first Bolt Action rifle. your first rifle, and you're already talking about a custom gun? i can understand to some people money isn't an object, but really? do you have any experience with a bolt gun? i'm no expert, but i'm pretty decent at shooting whitetail. my first...

    SilencerCo is hiring machinists

    Re: SilencerCo is hiring machinists are you looking for machinists or button pushers? i mean, i've worked a VF3 by both loading the programs and pushing "go", and by hand writing programs to do things like engraving and carving soft-jaws. there's a bit of a difference between a machinist and...

    Re: how ofter should I clean 300 win mag i dunno, i'm old school in cleaning i guess. i clean my firearms (all of 'em) after every shoot. the only exception is hunting. my deer gun gets bore snaked if i shoot it before the season ends. when i clean my rifles, i oil everything. in the case...

    possibly joining marine corps

    Re: possibly joining marine corps ok, as a Marine this hurts to say, but... GO AIRFORCE! they have the highest percentage of women, they have the best food and biggest budget per person. also, they will treat you like a human being. if you wanna be a dumb grunt, the Air Force will gladly put...
