    Drop Leg Holster

    Re: Drop Leg Holster 6004 on the leg platform set up as mentioned above but I still run both straps as it helps me on the draw to keep the holster from canting. On my regular duty rig I run that long belt drop and the only problem I have had with that is it does tend to grab the pistol on the...

    Re: Tacticool stock for Marlin 880SQ I believe it is I will be giving Marlin a call tomorrow. Did the trigger guard come with screws or will I need to order them as well? I also need a longer front receiver screw wich I believe is the one on the 900 series rifles. Thank you everyone for the...

    Tacticool stock for Marlin 880SQ

    Okay gentlemen here is my problem: due to a brain cramp I did not even think about needing a trigger guard when I ordered my Boyd's tacticool stock for my 880SQ. I have checked a couple parts companies for just a trigger guard and screws with no luck. I also need a longer forward action screw...

    A quick tripod comparison with pictures

    Re: A quick tripod comparison with pictures As Frank stated managing the recoil is the key along with building a solid shooting position (comfort will come with practice and a lot of snapping in) and yes shooting off a tripod is no different than off any other alternate position with a...

    Troy 13.8 forend

    Re: Troy 13.8 forend This originally had the railed gas block and regular hand guards on a 16" barrel. I went with the Troy low profile gas block and it works and looks great. Having the rail run almost to the end of the barrel also makes it nice for mounting NV and a longer sight radius. Let...

    Troy 13.8 forend

    Re: Troy 13.8 forend BM11, Just a quick update here as well. Apparently DPMS and Troy are not doing a very good job of communicating with each other. I got the forened from a member here and it was new in the box. I installed it and much to my displeasure the forened is about 1/8" higher...

    Bushnell Excursion Spotting Scope Video

    Re: Bushnell Excursion Spotting Scope Video Jake, How did the #16 Butler Creek cap work out? With the armor coating on these I would almost rather run caps instead of the neoprene cover supplied with the scope.

    511 tactical watch with ballistic data or ???

    Re: 511 tactical watch with ballistic data or ??? The HRT model is heavy and harder to read than the Field Ops model. The only down side I saw for these watches beside the large size, and price of replacement bands that wear out, is the battery life which, lasted me about 6-8 months. As for...

    .308 twist rate?

    Re: .308 twist rate? 1:10 in both my 16" DPMS and my 22" barreled M40A3 wantabe. My M40A1 has a 1:11.25 and shoots most everything well except the 147gr machine gun stuff and that pattern better resembles a cone of fire than a shot group. I used to have a Rem 1:12 cut to 18" and anything over...

    AI Mag Belt Holster

    Re: AI Mag Belt Holster No multicam or molle? You are getting off the reservation with that thing Pat. There is certainly a cool factor to good old fashion leather. My brother has a hunting rig (in the fashion of an old war belt) with suspenders, 2" wide belt, holster, speed loader pouch and...
