    Rifle Scopes Ring Marks/ Rings

    Re: Ring Marks/ Rings The ARC rings are a sweet design: But at $60-70 less for Seekins, I'll probably continue to tighten down the extra screws...kinda relaxing, in a Zen sorta way as you contemplate your sweet, new scope. :-)

    Rifle Scopes Ring Marks/ Rings

    Re: Ring Marks/ Rings Mostly it's because of some misalignment. Really good rings like Seekins or Badger won't leave marks or at least they'll be slight. Still no guarantee if the action or rail isn't also straight or if the rings aren't tightened to spec. You can bed a rail if the action...

    Magpul announces new pmags

    Re: Magpul announces new pmags I've been in touch with Midwest PX a couple times and there's little hope the Stubbies will be back in stock. Not surprising since the 20 rd is the parent magazine. The new 10 rd doesn't look more than 3/4" longer so I'll be keeping an eye out for those.

    AR .308 JP bolts **IN STOCK**

    Re: AR .308 JP bolts **IN STOCK** I ordered one last night while it showed in stock, then even went back to that item and refreshed it after my order was placed. It still showed as being in stock, but then I got the "reform" email later telling me it was backordered. Not a big deal, but...

    Palmetto State Armory lower build kits in stock

    Re: Palmetto State Armory lower build kits in stock I was impressed with the quality of their kit with the Geissele SSA-E trigger...even had an allen-head bolt for the grip.

    AR10 guidance

    Re: AR10 guidance I couldn't even find a DPMS other than the SASS anywhere before December. I'm glad I went with a custom build off a MATEN now, but wouldn't hold out much hope for going either route now. Mega is backed up through November and not taking new orders from dealers either, for...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! I'd most like to see a 3-12/15 version of the SS 5-20. It would be nice to have a bomber alternative to S&B, etc. for under $1400.

    Rings recommendation for MATEN

    Re: Rings recommendation for MATEN Emmerdeur, that's very generous of you to offer them like that. I just got off the phone with SWFA and placed an order for a set of the Seekins X-Highs (1.26") and an SS 3-9 (I'm so far down the SS 1-6 list the metal ore for the mine hasn't even been dug out...

    Rings recommendation for MATEN

    Re: Rings recommendation for MATEN Thanks. All very good recommendations. Light weight is a big factor for me. But I'm also wondering...being new to ARs...whether a cantilevered mount might be needed regardless. Wish I could try out several with a couple of the scopes I mentioned.

    Rings recommendation for MATEN

    Re: Rings recommendation for MATEN That's true. I used to have one of their DirectMounts on a Rem. 700. I might consider the Uni and that makes me wonder too whether I can really even get the mounting/sight picture I want with conventional rings. Should I be looking at a cantilevered mount? I...

    Rings recommendation for MATEN

    I'll probably get the Seekins AR 30mm rings but wondered if there are others to look at. Scope will be a SS 1-6 (some day), SS 3-9 or Vortex PST/NF 2.5-10X32. The stock is a Magpul CTR. I want to go light, have no need for a QD mount. Can I go lower than the Seekins AR rings or will I run into...
