    300 blackout bolt gun

    I walked out of a Cabelas 6-7 years ago with a Rem 700 AAC, with rebates and father's day sale I think I paid $379. I threw a take-off HS Police stock and PTG AR mag bottom metal and never fired it. Seemed like a fun project at the time, but apparently didn't fit my needs. Plan now is to sell...

    Is a 1 moa 10/22 possible?

    The top 3 are: 1. Kidd 2. Kidd 3. Kidd I semi-joke. Volquartsen was the top dog for years and are still good, but Kidd has surpassed them. Tandemkross is good for some race-specific things like their magazines, but part for part, Kidd runs away with it. Ordering a barreled action with trigger or...

    Ruger MKII front sight help

    For reference purposes, here are other great places for Ruger parts and in the case of Numrich, a lot more. Wirthwein Numrich

    SIG P322

    I helped my brother in law impulse buy one last weekend when we went to pick up his CZ Shadow 2 OR. My tasker is to put optics on both and smooth up the CZ action. I'll try it out with Dead Air Mask and post my thoughts.

    700 Pattern 22s

    I love my B14r dearly and my wife likes it too, but after I put a KRG Bravo on a PWS Summit action (same footprint as 10/22) for her, she doesn't even mess with my rifles. I would consider putting a Bravo on your 10/22 (easy to sell if is doesn't fit the bill), then buy new glass as that is...

    NRL22X Gear?

    Things that saved my bacon on my first rimfire match, which turned out to be a large NRL22X match. -Strelock Pro -Printed Course of Fire(CoF) to take notes, work on dope, and lessons learned from each stage. -H2O -Sun Block (I made serious points with my squad for sharing the SPF) -Baby Wipes I...

    5.7x28 suppressor options

    The Dead Air Mask is pretty well regarded and it's rated through 5.7. The reviews seem favorable on both FN platforms.

    simple tactical vest

    I'm sure that is part of it, but I think the new format and search function dredge up the past a lot easier than before.

    Bergara Mods?

    This is nothing. Go over to Rimfire Central. 10/22 is a religion over there. Ruger BX-1. The 10-rounder that is available in the 3-pack. Fun fact: 10 of them will fit perfectly in a Pelican 1040 case. I have also had good luck with the Tandemkross Doublekross mod. Maybe. Sometimes all the...

    UPDATE-mount question post#10 Old setup, but still works great

    That is actually a Singlepoint Occluded Eye Gunsight (OEG). The OG red dot. That was the first documented SOF use of red dot sights (Son Tay Raid, 1970).

    UPDATE-mount question post#10 Old setup, but still works great

    I saw old set up and expected to see this: You are right, though. Much of what we do is a solution searching for a problem. Technology gives us a bump up every so often, but training will usually outweigh it.

    Bergara Mods?

    For many years, Volquartsen was the place to go for top-shelf 10/22s and parts. Although still good, Kidd has surpassed them in almost every way. If you are already asking about upgrades to a factory rig, just order a Kidd. Otherwise you wind up with a pieced together Kidd and a box of Bergara...

    .32 Rimfire: What Is This?

    Maybe 32 Long Rimfire? Agree with Rooster, that shoulder excludes the little .32's.

    Recommendations for EDC for the wife

    My wife "thought" she wanted a light, small pistol, until I we spent a couple of months trying out specimens from across the handgun spectrum. Turns out she likes heavy steel and crisp triggers. Her range toy is a CZ Shadow 2 and next will be a CZ P-01 for a carry piece.

    Kahles k525 older vs newer

    That was my conclusion the last time I was in the market. The K525i is a great $2400 scope, not so much at MSRP.

    Custom Remington 541S ?

    I for one am greatly enjoying you going over the classics in your safe, but I ask one favor...GIVE US PHOTOS! And I don't want to hear any excuses about not knowing how to do that, you can always learn. I have heard that for every photo of a classic firearm that goes on the internet, the...

    Bravo balance with Bergara b14R

    I think they are under promising and over delivering. I ordered a cerakoted Envy Pro during the holidays, told them I was in no hurry and received it 9 weeks later. I love those guys!

    Should I look at anything else before buying a Volquartsen ?

    Go VQ and never look back. I am sure there are a few out there, but I have never met someone who has regretted buying one. And if you do decide to get rid of it after a while, a whole VQ holds its' value well compared to a franken pistol.

    Are gps units outdated or needed for non mil?

    Yup, Garmin is still top dog. I love both my 601 and all of my 60-66 series. If I could only have one, it would be a handheld. ' Handheld: More and better screens (Arguably) Stronger antenna (In my experience) easier to teach AA batteries (I like all or at least most of my gear to use the same...
