    MDT LSS Vs XLR Element

    I can only speak on my experience with the MDT LSS and regular XLR chassis. I have used two of the LSS on customers rifles so far and they definitely fit the bill for being light weight and the ergonomics/ability to change the ergonomics with AR15 parts is great. It however is not a "Drop In"...

    drag bag/mat

    Barrett makes a nice drag/shooting pack. It is pricey though but there are many others in the business. BlackHawk makes a few different ones as well.

    Suppressors Thunderbeast Suppressor Blew Up?

    Looks like I struck a cord with someone... I will DEBATE with you. The main point of my post was simply at how "Often" Thunderbeast is having problems with their suppressors whether 338 or other models. I also responded to another member who quoted my post "Just stating the fact that...

    Suppressors Thunderbeast Suppressor Blew Up?

    Not going to derail the thread saying SureFire is the best. Just stating the fact that ThunderBeast has had several Catastrophic Failure incidents this year alone with a little jab at the end I will admit. I don't see any thread like that on here for the SureFire's. Ceasing derailment 3...2...1...

    Suppressors Need a proper precision rifle can...

    I fail to see how the QD mounted suppressors would be "less accurate or even less reliable" then direct thread suppressors. If the QD muzzlebrake/flashider is correctly mounted (whether you use a shim kit or have your smith perfectly time the brake to your barrel for you) there would not be a...

    Suppressors Thunderbeast Suppressor Blew Up?

    This is not even the 4th story like this I have heard over the last year. For how much everyone boasts about the Thunder Beast cans on here I would not assume there would be this kind of problems fairly consistently. Also, makes my SureFire SOCOM choice a lot better.

    EuroOptic has just gotten in there first round or pre-orders for us dealers though I still don't have the one I preordered for a customer 7months ago. The customer since then has changed chassis so it'll be posted in the PX section as soon as I get mine.

    Short Action Customs Alpha 11 action and "LBC" Mod

    Might have to get this LBC Mod done to my Defiance Stryker Ridge Action before I have it sent out for QPQ. Just curious about the trigger I will be using. Have an Adjustable Rifle Basix from 8oz-20oz and def don't want an AD!

    Gunsmithing Sending a .223 barrel out for nitriding - shoot it first? - prep included?

    Spoke to Ritz at H&M Metal (blacknitride.com) literally two days about sending him my Krieger for my custom. Ritz is the manager of their firearm department. He said that customers have sent both brand new and "Broken In" barrels (10-20 rounds shot through for microburs). He said the...

    Muzzle Breaks

    My Surefire SOCOM Muzzle Brake makes my Tkka T3 .308 kick like my AR-15. It is definitely worth the money IMHO.

    .308 build. What Muzzle Brake, Gas Block and Handguard?

    Can't beat a SureFire muzzle brake IMHO. Turned my .308 Tikka T3 in the kick of my Piston AR-15!

    Kestrel Question

    Invest in the 4500. I tell my customers all the time. If it is something you want in the long run, be patient and save the extra couple bucks so you get what you really wanted.

    .22 LR ammo is back to normal

    The larger issue is people hoarding the ammunition. I had 25,000 rounds come in of Winchester M22 in 1K bricks a few weeks ago. It was all gone in six days! Word of mouth is very good at spreading the word. Almost every customer who came in had a "My friend just texted/called me saying you had...

    My .308 PSR Build Journal

    Just got the Sphur mount, Atlas Bipod, and Accu-shot monopod in the mail today. The quality of the Sphur mount is obvious right off the bat and the bubble level is easy to pick up with my non dominate eye. 10 minutes later I got a call from my gunsmith giving me an update on my rifle. I should...
