    Sidearms & Scatterguns Anyone shoot a steyer M9A1

    I've only shot one, and handled two. The magazine would not drop free on both. In fact, there was resistance, as if the mag were too big for the mag well and I had to physically pull it out. It sucked because I loved the look and feel of it. Unless you just want something different, I think...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Educate me on the 10mm...

    So the consensus seems to be "get the 10mm." In looking into it a little further, it seems you can switch from 45 > 10mm in the G21 with a barrel and mag swap. Has anybody tried this? I've 'read' several reports of guys doing this but I'm not sure how reliability is affected.

    Aside from costing way more than I could justify, that is damned cool.

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I really want to pull the trigger on one of those ESS stocks. Yours looks awesome. I have a couple questions for you: -Is that the 18" forened? -Are you using a 20MOA rail? -What height rings are you using? My bell is already pretty close to the barrel and Im worried I would need to order...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Educate me on the 10mm...

    So I already own a handfull of 9mm, .40, and .45 handguns. Glocks, Xd's, Sigs, 1911's. I'm just itching for another handgun for aboslutely no reason, and it makes sense to me to stick to one of those calibers. BUT...Im getting kinda curious about a 10mm Glock 20. I had an Uncle RIP that had...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Defender Caps Sizes

    The eyepiece cup only comes in one size, then you'll probably want the 44 Objective. The cups that contact the scope are rubber and pretty flexible so you have some wiggle room, but they pretty well run true to a scopes listed objective size. The cap is hard plastic. If you give the eyepiece...

    Need Upper Parts for DPMS Gen I LR-308 Build.

    The gen1 LR308s use a standard AR15 forward assist. The lower uses a 308 a specific: bolt catch (and threaded retainer pin), mag release, and take down pins. The buffer tubes (not springs or buffers though), and FCG are standard AR15. edit- you'll want to be careful about what bolt and carrier...

    Rifle Scopes Steinter T5Xi > Burris XTR2?

    Wow. Thanks for that detailed description. This is exactly what I was looking for back when I was considering these two optics. However, since then, I reconsidered, upped my budget, and decided on a DMRIIi and could not be happier. Which, crazy as it is, ended up costing me a lot less than...

    Rifle Scopes Eotech Vudu 1-6

    My advice would be to keep your Trijicon. That 1-8 is a nice optic, and I really don't see what advantage the 1-6 vudu would provide you. A little smaller and a little less weight...?

    Is this normal? Filthy brass w/ suppressor.

    Adding a heavier buffer was going to be my next step, so that helps to hear. I thought maybe the spring change would help with this as well, but the difference it made was only noticeable in how the gun recoiled after re-tuning the gas block, but the brass looked the same.

    Is this normal? Filthy brass w/ suppressor.

    Normally I would agree with you but the bases are getting pretty chewed up too. Look at the case in the middle. That's not an optical illusion, its leaning a bit because the rim was bent during extraction.

    Is this normal? Filthy brass w/ suppressor.

    Thanks for the responses, gentlemen. This makes me feel a little better. I just wanted to make sure something wasn't dangerous. As long as it functions well I suppose I shouldn't bitch. Most of the brass though, gets so beat up it may not be reloadable. I guess I'll limit my suppressed...

    Is this normal? Filthy brass w/ suppressor.

    What's weird is using the same suppressor on my 223 AR they come out just as clean as they do without the suppressor on. I guess there is just less back pressure since its a .30cal suppressor.

    Rifle Scopes A little help please

    If you have time to wait it will be interesting to see what will surface to the market in the coming year. With the new vortex PST2 line, Im curious to see if Vortex updates the lower tier optics that were based on the PST design (HST, and Viper HS). Who knows. In the meantime, if you can...

    Rifle Scopes A little help please

    I was not aware of that. My experience with Nikon is limited to their hunting optics (that's about all they do for scopes), so not a lot of dialing in & out. Set it an forget it. If you're concerned about customer service you will be very satisfied with the Vortex offerings.

    Rifle Scopes 1300 budget for optic

    Bushnell LRTS or LRHS would be my suggestion. Excellent performing optics in this price range. The SHV 4-14 F1 is great optic, however. The Bushy's provide a few more features for your money though. Wider FOV, some more magnification, and 10 mil turrets.

    Rifle Scopes A little help please

    If you plan on dialing the scope at all, and tracking is of great concern then the SWFA will likely be your best option. Another option would be something from the Vortex HS-T line. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/28...-reticle-matte Now, these are kinda new to the game, so their tracking...
