    50 yard zero

    So much going on in this thread. Still trying to understand post #5 by Strikeeagle. Is that really his gun? Did he intentionally set it up this way, and if so does he feel like some Seal Team 6 operator when he shoots it? How about those groups? Are they something he's proud of? Are they...

    Pistol brace SBR free registration?

    IDK - there has to come a point where the ATF has changed direction so many times that no reasonable person could be expected to continue trying to follow their rules. I could have said requiring registration of SBR's is stupid and serves no legitimate purpose, so I'm just going to buy a lower...

    50 yard zero

    OP - Not sure why you'd settle for "good enough" when you can do better. Why not take the time to shoot of a solid rest and try to shrink and center those groups? No matter what kind of shooting you do after that, you've given yourself your best chance of hitting what you're shooting at. As...

    Pistol brace SBR free registration?

    OK - so trying to figure this all out it sounds like if you are registering under the Form 1 amnesty pistol brace rule: 1. No tax stamp because you didn't actually pay the tax. 2. Also don't have to engrave lower. 3. Once your application is approved you can ditch the brace and replace it...

    Form 1, Form 4, SBR's

    Smooth brain?:D Never heard that one. I guess that's the one thing everyone wants to be wrinkly. Seriously, I think this is something we all need to stick together on. Everyone agrees that the ATF's flip flop on this is bullshit. You cannot say that a pistol with a brace is ok, knowing...

    Pistol brace SBR free registration?

    Think I finally figured it out and will be e-filing for a couple of pistols I have with braces. I already have 2 SBR's I did a number of years ago before pistol braces were really a thing. And I already own a couple of suppressors and the paperwork on 2 more was just submitted. So the ATF...

    Pistol brace SBR free registration?

    "If you are not computer savvy, then you will have a problem" should be highlighted and in bold. I am not a complete ignoramus when it comes to computers, but I have been really struggling to do an e-filing. Probably spent 4-5 hours already, without success. First problem is that they want a...

    Looking a Good Heavier Range Hand gun

    Yeah, at $1,000 that Shadow 2 is VERY tempting. You not only get a gun that has the weight you're looking for, but also has a great trigger and, because of the way the slide is fit into the frame, is very fast back on target.

    Looking a Good Heavier Range Hand gun

    First thing I thought of when I read you post was CZ Shadow 2. Apparently I'm not the only one. If you're looking at HK's and you have the budget, I'd look at the USP45 Elite. Pretty heavy, very accurate, fairly soft shooting. And it's an HK so reliability will be excellent. You could...

    Larue Siete available to order

    DvlDog - Getting consistent hits on a 2' plate at 1000 yards is good shooting, particularly in variable wind. I've shot out to 1000 about a dozen times and in my experience, once you get past about 7-800 yards, things can get challenging - particularly in less than ideal conditions. Never gone...

    14.5" Geissele, Compass Lake or ??

    Don't know much about ADM. LMT and PWS both make excellent rifles. LMT comes in DI and piston versions. PWS piston only. There is nothing wrong with a piston system, but they tend to be heavier, use proprietary parts and all things being equal will probably not be as accurate as a DI gun...

    14.5" Geissele, Compass Lake or ??

    Additional info. is helpful. Sounds like you're going to want an AR that you can count on to be accurate. There's a reason the high power guys you know lean towards CLE - they are among the most accurate AR's you can buy. And they are consistently accurate, whereas some of the other guys will...

    14.5" Geissele, Compass Lake or ??

    I have a Compass Lake upper, which I really like. If choosing between these two I would say that the CLE will be more accurate (that's really what they are know for) and the Geissele will probably be more reliable/durable since it has some upgrades over mil spec like an enhance BCG. That's not...

    Favorite Fun Guns

    As others have said a 9mm PCC is a great plinking gun. Light, not much recoil, relatively cheap ammo, and you can plink steel plates at 7-50 yards - which you really can't (or shouldn't) do with an AR. A ton of options, from bargain to Gucci. I've been looking at this...

    Optic for SBR 556?

    I think with optics recommendations you need to be careful not to assume everyone has the same vision. I've seen lot's of people claim that any reasonably competent shooter should be able to get hits on steel out to at least 300 with a red dot. As someone who is 65 years old, has a pretty...

    Suppressors Dead Air Suppressor Quality

    Well, since we're generalizing about the defect rates of DA suppressors based on a couple of complaints, how about we give the same weight to posters who have had zero problems with their DA suppressors. As previously stated I own a Sandman S and a Nomad TI. Both have had no problems and the...

    Suppressors Dead Air Suppressor Quality

    Another big DA fan. Own a Sandman S and a Nomad Ti and have a Sierra in jail. Sandman sees the most use, and is switched between a number of AR15's, most with short barrels. Nomad Ti gets switched between two bolt guns and a 14.5" AR. Must have a couple of thousand rounds through the Sandman...

    Me to. Just got tracking number for the first can I ordered. Hoping the second one isn't far behind.

    Ambi Lowers from ADM vs Falkor vs Seekins vs LMT vs LWRCi

    Gee, I just picked up and LMT MARS-L stripped lower for $281.00 OTD. I'd tell you where, but I just checked and they are OOS.

    Is 14.5 the middle ground that doesn't matter any more?

    Another CO resident (Western Slope). I've kind of given up trying to shoot long distance in the afternoon. Blustery winds between 5-20 mph that somehow manages to come from two different directions at once. :) OTOH my local range goes out to 600 yards and finding places to shoot out to 1000...
