    Interest in 5/8" Thick AR500 Group Buy??

    I'd also probably do a small square set. Maybe even a 50% IPSC. How much would something like this weigh? Also, any chance that poppers would be part of this deal?

    First time out with my FN SPR

    So it's taken a long while but I finally managed to find some time away from work and family to get my completed FN SPR out to the range. This has caused me to realize one major fact, I still have a lot to learn about precision shooting. First, the specs: Threaded and Fluted 24" FN SPR...

    Love the rifle! Also you're the first person I've met online that also has a VW Jetta GLI.

    AI AE Questions

    Getting hands on it will be tough but after sleeping on it I've decided to pass. While it seems to be a good deal, I just would rather not have to give up the advantages of the AT, even if it'll take me another year or so to save up. In the mean time, I have my FN SPR which shoots better than...

    AI AE Questions

    The asking price seems to be 2k which to me seems like a good deal. My only reservation is that, if it is a MKI, it would require different magazines. Is that correct for all MKI AI AEs? I also don't get any of the benefits of the MKII or MKIII like the easily removed trigger, better safety...

    AI AE Questions

    Gentlemen, So I may have a lead on an AI AE at what I think is a steal price. Its a non-folder and seems to be an older model. It doesn't have any markings to indicate if its a MKII or MKIII and it doesn't appear to have an adjustable cheek piece. Are these options that can be added...

    Belt + Holster Opinions

    So gents. Apparently (and I wasn't aware of this before) Safariland is going to be sending me a 50% off coupon to holsters.com because I signed up for IDPA. This has me looking very hard at an ELS setup. From my research it looks like the main ELS belt is 1.75 inches and that falls within...

    Belt + Holster Opinions

    Thanks everyone for the really detailed responses so far. You're not making the choice any easier giving me a whole bunch of new options! I'm going to have to do some more research into what everyone is suggesting. I know I want a holster with some flexibility that can be used either as a DOH...

    Belt + Holster Opinions

    Thanks for the insight! What makes you prefer the Raven over the Bladetech for classes? Also, what made you choose the Aegis over the Ranger? I have a feeling your choices have to do with your ability to carry daily. Because this rig will be solely for competition/class use, I'm not really...

    Belt + Holster Opinions

    Interesting you mentioned the M&P as one of those is next on my list to purchase and will likely replace my p226 once I get comfortable with it. I strongly prefer a belt holster over a thigh holster personally and in order for it to be IDPA legal it would need to thread through belt loops so a...

    Belt + Holster Opinions

    So I'm looking to see what everyone's opinion on the best holster/belt combo for my p226. I am looking for an OWB holster who's primary purpose would be training and competition. Because I live in NJ, carrying is out of the question so no considerations need to be made for that. I'm looking...

    Tikka T3 AICS Magazine Options

    Thanks for the insight Jeff. The CDI bottom metal is working great! At the moment I have the two previously, modified magazines working so I think I will hold off on the milling, especially since this rifle is primarily a plinker and practice platform for reloading. Once the plastic AI mags...

    Tikka T3 AICS Magazine Options

    Understood. However I already have a pair of modified magazines from way back when and new plastic AICS 223 mags are nowhere to be found. I was looking to see if the Accurate mags work w/o modification to the receiver or feed lips but that may be a bit optimistic of me.

    Tikka T3 AICS Magazine Options

    So now that I have my .223 Tikka T3 sitting pretty in a new Manners stock, I need to make the transition over to AICS magazines to work with the CDI bottom metal I have installed. I have a pair of the polymer AI branded magazines left over from my XLR chassis which I had modified to work with...

    Tikka T3 project

    So, quick preamble. Sorry for taking so long to post pictures. I was waiting for my stock to arrive from Manners. This was in no way the fault of Manners and they were actually very accommodating of my stupidity in forgetting to respond to their invoice with payment. Now that I have the...
