    So, I did a thing...

    A number of years ago we purchased a savage axis in 223 to do a switch barrel 300 blk. The plan was to put on a 16" 300 blk barrel so we could suppress it for deer hunting. Before swapping the barrel we decided to shoot our normal handloads thru it just for kicks. That rifle ended up shooting...

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    Same. I want at a minimum a very solid locking turret with zero stop, or preferably, just simple capped turrets. Army_eod, I still appreciate your input and recommendation.

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    For a "patrol rifle", TCOLE (Texas Commission on Law Enforcement) changed what was permitted from 3x to 5x. Anything above 5x magnification is considered a "precision rifle" and requires a different course to be taken.

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    Thank you for the clarification. I also edited my earlier post as I was guilty of looking at the posted price before checking to see what my "cart price" was. Thats my fault, so I edited it. However, you sir are faster than my edit! Bravo! 👏

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    I will look at the Accupoint. I dont ever expect that I would have to engage anything at that distance. Is it possible? Sure, but not probable. However, the biggest thing for me is getting better positive ID. Who knows, its quite possible that a situation may arise where the only thing...

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    I understand the thought process of not wanting someone to try and run their typical hunting optic of a 3-9 or even more so, not wanting someone to run something like a 5-25x etc. on a patrol rifle. It makes more sense that you will need 1x for 95% of your situations. I still prefer to have that...

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    Sadly I was not familiar with this optic. Thank you for the recommendation! Im looking more into it now. I will continue to do my research on this optic. Thank you for the heads up. Any one else have other recommendations, or support of this one?

    Rifle Scopes Best 1-4 or 1-5x optic for $2k or less?

    I am currently in the market for a new patrol rifle optic. I have been using a Razor 1-6 and had planned on actually switching to a Razor 1-10. However... I just found out that TCOLE will only allow us to run up to a 5x LPVO on our patrol rifle. So, I am now in the market for something that I...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns EDC Loadout

    This is my first OTF knife. I wouldnt have purchased it at full price. I got the MIL/LEO pricing which is pretty nice. If I ever decided to sell it, I cant imagine that I would lose much $. So I figured it was worth a shot. I do not use it for anything other than work. That way if I ever...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns EDC Loadout

    It is. I really like it. I wish it had a different blade profile as I think m that would lend itself to more daily use. But overall, I like it alot.

    Apparently Investigations Sgt. Brian Shelton. I wish I was paid like that.... although I don't think I want to know what had to be done to be paid in that manner.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Shame on you! CTD

    As the OP, please let me clarify. I havent done any type of business with these dirt bags in over 10 years. Like I stated from the beginning, this was brought to my attention. I had to seek out the information myself to verify it was correct. I wasn’t all that surprised to find that it...

    Shame on you! CTD

    Not sure where else to put this, but it is pistol ammo, so this seemed appropriate. I hated cheaper than dirt when they jacked up the prices of Pmags to $99 when there was a rush around 2012. I already didnt shop with them, but when they pulled that...

    Rifle Scopes Not happy with Leupold VX5HD, now what?

    I cant answer for anyone else, but I absolutely do. And I pound it into my kids head to do that as well. My kids are always hunting with me, in fact I haven't been on a hunt in the last 14 years where at least 1 of my kids wasnt in the stand with me. You best believe that we follow the rules to...
