    Rifle Scopes ACOG TA01B or EOTech?

    Re: ACOG TA01B or EOTech? Just a piece of advice; TRY IT! There are endless solutions for different needs out there, I personally run with an Aimpoint M3 and a 4X ACOG with a 7 moa Docter on top for my 2 different fav setups, but thats because I spent forever to find what works for ME...

    Gear Queer or Well Equiped?

    Re: Gear Queer or Well Equiped? Listen to LW and the others telling you to keep shit off your legs... I have, right beside me, a 6-mag (3+3) drop leg shingle I bought for one single purpose; keep it on a couple of hooks in my safe door so I can grab it, the gun, and run. Keeps the safe...

    Rifle Scopes Aimpoint CompM4 Internal Reflections

    Re: Aimpoint CompM4 Internal Reflections At what power settings? My Comp ML3 does the same, depending on ambient light and power setting. At max its clearly visible in daylight indoors. Never really use the highest power settings, so this is observed during testing only. At lower settings...

    Rifle Scopes HELP!! Leupold Mark 4 CQ/T understanding Reticle

    Re: HELP!! Leupold Mark 4 CQ/T understanding Reticle Zero will be zero no matter what magnification youre set at. The dot size and ring diameter are just laid out so that at full magnification (3X) they can be used to estimate the range from your scope to your target. The reason why you have...

    Fieldcraft Snow Ghillie

    Re: Snow Ghillie's hunting camo fabrics I think our friend from Finland said it pretty well. I am from a relatively cold and snow-infested place myself. What I found when it comes to camoflage is that little varies as much as the winter. Start in the valley with patches of snow on the ground...

    Fieldcraft White light on rifle?

    Re: White light on rifle? Just a sidenote; the McCann Industries MIRS rail is a one-piece MARS-lookalike (dunno what came first) that is really sturdy, and less messy (no loose parts) than the MARS...fits especially well on wide-stocked weapons where the siderails do not extend too far...

    Drag Bag (Eagle) vs Eber Gunslinger?

    Re: Drag Bag (Eagle) vs Eber Gunslinger? Just a sidenote to the HSRC straps: Any gear one buy may not be 100% perfect for ones specific needs, requirements or wants, being otherwise a perfect product "as intended". I got the HSRC x-long edition from Triad a few weeks ago. No time to properly...

    Gunsmithing Picatinny milling cutter tool

    The "dovetail" cutting tool for making the final shaping cut(s) in 1913-adapters to go on a rail. Anyone know where and if one can buy these, or do I have to have one made based on available spec? Sorry, my search-fu is inadequate and nothing seems listed with Brownells.

    Rifle Scopes Scope export

    Re: Scope export Thanks Triad! So according to this, even Butler Creek lenscaps that would fit a mil-dot scope, and a Blue Force sling that would fit an M4/AR15 could be questionable? I know for a fact that exporting firearms is no big deal using an FFL for the paperwork and shipping. Guess...

    Suppressors GSG 1911

    Re: GSG 1911 It says that it has the same weight and feel as a "real" 1911. This could be good and bad, I have a Kimber .22 and it is half the weight of my Colt. The good point is that recoil feels almost "real" (more 9mm like though) and lets me practice follow-ups and reaquiring sight...

    Suppressors Question about 1911 CCWs

    Re: Question about 1911 CCWs I cannot provide any input from personal experience, since i dont have a CCW license. I do have two good friends that have carried 1911s for many years and never would replace them for any compact or "plastic" gun.The 1911 must be one of the easiest guns for minor...

    Rifle Scopes Scope export

    Re: Scope export This may be the case in France, but here, tritium is not an issue. We do not have any restrictions on what you can have regarding optics, as long as you bought it legally somewhere. Battery-operated NVs used during hunting is outlawed but anything else is gtg. When I...

    Rifle Scopes Scope export

    I am looking to get a couple of scopes and wonder if anyone could answer this: Does anyone know how much an export license is? Would this require an import license as well? (Import licenses are required for firearms but not scopes where I`m at, but does Dept of State require it anyway to issue...

    Rifle Scopes Image rendition over sighting?

    Re: Forum Title Question??? I`ll throw in my 0.02... Apart from the forum title issue, being totally up to the BMFIC in here, I partially agree. Gear: Since the world got smaller and comms got better, equipment "hysteria" and overkill has become fairly common. Most ppl, myself included, wants...

    Rifle Scopes Larue S.T.O.M.P.

    Re: Larue S.T.O.M.P. This one may not be from the hottest manufacturer but if its going on a bolt-action this seems to work quite good... http://www.mccannindustries.com/mount/mirs-m24/mirs-m24.html Allthough it doesnt come with throw levers its basically the same design. I dont know the...

    Fieldcraft One shot.. to multiple targets.. what changed?

    Re: One shot.. to multiple targets.. what changed? Snipers throughout the times, 2nd WW and such, also engaged multiple targets, but at a slower rate than someone with a SA DMR. My feeling of the "one shot-one kill" thing, is that it is/was a solution to a VIP issue that in todays political...

    Van Dyke Rifles

    Re: Van Dyke Rifles John built me a .338 Tactical Eliminator last year. Due to time limitations (expiry dates) of import/export licenses, this deal went down in 3 months after confirming licenses OK. Overall he did one heck of a job, I am truly impressed by the quality, functionality and...

    Rifle Scopes Serious Leupold vs Nightforce question**UPDATE**

    Re: Serious Leupold vs Nightforce question I have the Leupold Mk4 mil-dot 6.5-20X50 and the NXS 3.5-15X56 NPR1. The difference is clear, especially when using them as makeshift spotting scopes. The NXS is clearer and brighter and the crosshairs are excellent for ranging and holdovers. With...
