    Atlas Bipod throw lever mount (BT10-LW17)

    Re: Atlas Bipod throw lever mount (BT10-LW17) I imagine you might check with Kasey on that...... It's not like LaRue is a secret, so I'd say he has his reasons for choosing ARMS (though I personally am not the biggest ARMS fan either, mine hasn't broken yet).

    10/22 Trainer?

    Re: 10/22 Trainer? Wilshire, Apprx how much does that setup weigh? That 20" tube balance out the McM stock well?

    Suppressors Surefire Cans

    Re: Surefire Cans No, makes total sense. I've heard of people running .30 cal cans on AR's, to quieter effect (and less blowback) than a true 5.56 can. I guess the obvious downside would be that most 30 cans are bigger/heavier. You're a thinker........

    Suppressors Surefire Cans

    Re: Surefire Cans Gotcha. Well then.... For a man who was limited to a single 5.56 family suppressor, it seems as though a 6.8 can could offer more flexibility to the end user, no? Assuming you could run 6.8, 5.56, 6.5G, and others of that ilk.

    Suppressors Surefire Cans

    Re: Surefire Cans Do the 6.8 cans have any increase in volume (thereby potentially being quieter) over the 5.56 cans?

    REM. 597 VTR VS. 10/22 QUESTION

    Re: REM. 597 VTR VS. 10/22 QUESTION My 597 was absolute junk. Would not feed to save it's life. I tried all the RFC fixes, bought new mags, and still couldn't get it to run. Eventually it tried killing me by firing OOB, and I decided that was enough for me, and it got trashed. There are...

    10/22 triggers

    Re: 10/22 triggers I'm on the same page as Frog. I've had a lot of 10/22 triggers, from Kidd's stuff on down. FWIW, I would say either buy the PC kit, stone the factory stuff yourself, send it off to CPC/Nemo/etc, or buy the Kidd. The Kidd trigger has NO equal. None, nada, zip, no matter...

    Re: custom xdm I dunno about the actual SA custom shop, but I know Scott Springer and Canyon Creek have been turning out some really nice looking stuff lately. Might check either one of their sites.

    Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy?

    Re: Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy? Inline - So are you talking about Tony's CNC'd bolt, or his "reworked" one? His CNC bolt looks niiiice, and given that it's only a couple bucks more, would probably be the way to fly if I had it to do all over again. With Tony's bolt, what kind of...

    Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy?

    Re: Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy? No, he's probably talking about surface grinding the bolt straight, and to a rim thickness of .0425. Can help with occasional fliers. It's cheap (like $35) and might give you a better piece of mind. I personally didn't notice a huge improvement in...

    Rifle Scopes NEW! USO's CQB reticle

    Re: NEW! USO's CQB reticle That looks pretty good! How bright is the illumination? Has John or anyone at USO ever spoke about making a true 1X optic? While I'm ignorant of the technical limitations, but always though a true 1x6 or so would be amazing.

    Suppressors Anyone ever deal with Customizedcreationz?

    Re: Anyone ever deal with Customizedcreationz? I would wish you good luck...... but you will probably need more than that. Contact the SigForum mods. Specifically LDD. Todd also responds quicker to posts there than he does via anything else.... especially those that aren't worded nicely...

    Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy?

    Re: Tactical Solutions barrel accuracy? Try different ammo, but the SK stuff is usually pretty good in most of my stuff (usually on par with Wolf). The Tac-Sol barrels used to get a bunch of crap because a lot of people said that they weren't "match-grade". The actual technical reasons I...

    How accurate is Google Earth for rangefinding?

    Re: How accurate is Google Earth for rangefinding? Have any of you tried Google Maps, instead of Google Earth to range stuff? Just wondering if it works too. I myself haven't given it a try yet.

    Best 10/22 barrel for $200 or under?

    Re: Best 10/22 barrel for $200 or under? So you guys with Kidd barrels..... They really are the shit? Any comparison to the general GM tubes, or is that a completely dumb question? Can anyone compare it to other high-end tubes (the Skeeter Quantum, Pac-nor/Shilen/Lilja tubes?) I've...

    10/22 stock options for a .9ish barrel

    Re: 10/22 stock options for a .9ish barrel MM, Tell me more about your 10/22. It's always been a favorite of mine. Specifically, I'm wanting to hear about weight/balance and whether or not it's still handi-dandy as I would like to keep mine a walk-around gun. Care to oblige?
