    Unique Alpine TPG-1

    Re: Unique Alpine TPG-1 Unique Alpine does not import the TPG-1 or TPG-2 into the United States. The TPG-3, or Ballista, will be imported into the US via FNHUSA which has co-developed the Ballista to meet military requiements and solicitations for .338 Lapua or multi-caliber, precision rifle...

    Converting a push feed to a controlled feed?

    Re: Converting a push feed to a controlled feed? Bearwolf, If you have an original PBR you have a controlled round push feed. The extractor is a sliding plate and the ejector is the same blade ejector of the CRF actions. The CRPF actions are a hybrid that are controlled round feed without...

    Re: Spr bottom metal pic Right. As you probably see, that leg assists the magazine out of the rifle.

    Good Field Trigger for FN TSR

    Good Field Trigger for FN TSR

    Re: Good Field Trigger for FN TSR Biff is correct, the TSR trigger is the same as the current production M-70s, not the two-lever that most after market trigger makers build to replace. They are not interchangeable. Some one may be making an MOA replacement, but I don't know for sure...

    I Can't Take It Anymore!!!

    Re: I Can't Take It Anymore!!! Chippewa is the brand I go with. Some of them are not made in the US, but most are. Make sure to look. Most companies, regardless of industry, offer some kind of "budget line" that is made overseas and merely branded with the name. Carhartt is prime example...

    Why not the Winchester model 70

    Re: Why not the Winchester model 70 Single feed, or chamber feed, of a single round is okay with current production CRF Winchesters and FNs. While earlier (pre '64s and Mausers) this may not have been advised, I have personally single fed over 3000 rounds into the chamber of a single SPR...

    Why not the Winchester model 70

    Re: Why not the Winchester model 70 No, the two lever and the three lever triggers do not inter change. The pin spacing is different. The striker-to-sear engagement on the two lever is a 45 degree angle, where on the three lever it is a 90 degree angle. There might be some extra room...

    Why not the Winchester model 70

    Re: Why not the Winchester model 70 While they had both in the line-up (in the mid-1990s into the early 2000s), the CRF model was called the "Model 70 Classic" and the CRPF was just "Model 70". For a while they carried both. If you find the M-70 Shadow and the M-70 Ultimate Shadow, they are...

    Why not the Winchester model 70

    Re: Why not the Winchester model 70 Joel B.: Controlled round feed (CRF) has a claw extractor (like originally on a Mauser) and a blade ejector. The bottom of the bolt face is open so the cartridge rim slides up under the extractor as it comes off the magazine. The ejector sat in the rear...

    FN spr A4

    Re: FN spr A4 Compare them side-by-side and then decide. That's all I have to say. If you can shoot them both, better yet.

    FN SPR A1a

    Re: FN SPR A1a Customer Service does evaluate firearms for warranty on a case-by-case basis, however, machine work of any kind on the barrel or receiver would be hard to look past. If you want service, its best to send it in and let Customer Service know what your issue and concerns are...

    FN SPR A1a

    Re: FN SPR A1a Check the FNH USA website and use the dealer locator at the top of the home page. Southern Florida is full of stocking dealers who will likely have what you need on the shelf. http://www.fnhusa.com/le/locatezip.asp?z...geo_search.y=17

    FN SPR A1a

    Re: FN SPR A1a That question is one you alone can answer. Do the SPR's features warrent the cost increase for you? To help you decide, perhaps some clarification. The SPR-A1a (#75510) is not available in .300 WSM, but the TSR-XP (#75424) is. The SPR-A5 (#75536) can be had in .300 WSM but...

    FN SPR A1a

    Re: FN SPR A1a TIA, The five and ten round TBM magazines are available. The do not fit the DBM outfitted rifles, however. TBM magazines require the TBM bottom metal. TBM is currently available in SPR-A5s. The TBM will fit the SPR DBM inlet without modification to the rifle or stock. It...

    FN SPR A1a

    Re: FN SPR A1a Julio, Your SPR should shoot much better than your targets indicate. Before you do any work on it, such as bedding or rebarreling, consider sending it back to FNH for a look. If you want a .260 Remngton, I'd say this would be a good candidate since you'd rebarrel and likely...
