    Rifle Scopes Atacr 4-16x42 help

    Either your mount is backwards, or more likely the zero stop is still set which is not letting you go back the other way. I assume you've looked through the manual to reset it? How many mils do you get the other direction?

    Philadelphia Breaking Active Shooter

    I absolutely agree with this. When I started I made it pretty clear to my wife that I would be seeking outside training regularly. Sadly, very few cops are willing to pony up the cash for this, but I see it as a basic survival necessity. Most cops in my area aren't willing to put up the cash...

    Philadelphia Breaking Active Shooter

    You have to realize that cops in general are a bunch of people who want to do they job for various reasons and are not typically gunslingers. Most, like the vast majority, do just enough with firearms to pass the state required minimum. Enough guys that go to SWAT teams aren't necessarily...

    Philadelphia Breaking Active Shooter

    Wow! Lots of conspiracy theories flying around over here today. I expected better from the Hide. Trust me. There's no grand conspiracy to stage a mass shooting, pour fake blood on each other and go kick in some random person's door and kill them. The amount of institutional "buy-in" to...

    So what’s the question exactly?

    Training Courses Rex Defense

    Yeager, and a few others less well-known, yes. I can’t for the life of me understand why people think this is ok. If I went to a class and they said, “ok guys. Hold still cuz we’re going to shoot at you now.” I’d be gone before they finished speaking the words. It’s completely unacceptable...

    Training Courses Rex Defense

    I have to agree with @Diver160651 on this. I think his Youtube content is good for drawing people into the game. It's like any other discipline. Take pistol shooting for instance. Many people buy a pistol and go to a range and feel like they're gunfighters after a couple hours. A small...

    I bet someone shot a match this weekend and said, "man! I wish I had a NF Beast instead of ______." Well here's your chance!

    Body armor recommendations...

    I recently bought some Hesco lvl 3 plates for patrol use. It took a lot of time and research to get to that point. My recommendations will be generic. Talk to the guys at AT Armor, Hesco, etc and get their advice for your specific needs or wants. I'd strongly discourage AR500 plates. I...

    Recoil Control Bipods

    Ok. I’m done with all this. I used to find this thread interesting but this has spiraled down to passive aggressive attacks on everyone who disagrees. I used to applaud you for ingenuity even though I don’t see the practical value for your idea outside of a narrow window of application. Now I...

    6.5 creedmoor 20in barrel or 22inch for AR10 platform?

    Not sure if you've seen this, but I just recently went to a 20" 6.5 Creedmoor in my AR10 platform rifle. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/seekins-sp10-barrel-swap.6943395/ @DaNorseman I really like the 130 gr range for shorter barrels like this. Good BC with decent velocity...

    Recoil Control Bipods

    I get the concept with the spike in the ground, but my world is PRS style matches and LE. Spiking your rifle to the ground won't work in either of those situations.

    Seekins SP10 barrel swap

    Yah. I think so. Honestly I was a little surprised since my 20” Rock Creek barrel shoots the same factory ammo at 2816 in my AI. I’m going to track it over time and see if it speeds up at all. Could just be the whole, gas gun vs bolt gun thing I guess. Not entirely sure to be honest.
