    Sidearms & Scatterguns Current Les Baer pistols quality

    I wish I could answer your question, but my Baer is old. Love it. Maybe try here: https://forum.m1911.org/ I used to spend a lot of time there. I'll bet you'll get better answers since it's primarily devoted to 1911's.

    DBAL mounted at 3:00 or 9:00?

    Thanks for the input. It's the D2, so co-aligned lasers. It'll eventually get a Vampire or similar, so I like the idea of having the DBAL on one side and the light on the other. If I knew it was going to return to zero readily, I'd probably not worry about it and just take it off for day use.

    DBAL mounted at 3:00 or 9:00?

    My DBAL obscures 40% of my view through my daytime optic (NF NX8) in a 1.5” mount. I’d rather not mount the scope higher. I can take the DBAL off for day use, but I’m wondering what the pitfalls are of mounting it at 3:00 or 9:00.

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    What exactly does "designed to be over gassed" mean? Are you saying they beefed up some parts to deal with the extra force of the BCG moving rearward? I say overgassing your JP will get you exactly the same result. That said, I DO wonder about the screw that adjusts most adjustable gas...

    CMMG 22LR conversion kit for AR15

    I have two dedicated CMMG uppers, both with proper .22 barrels. One was a barrel/bolt kit from CMMG. I've never tested it for accuracy because it just wears a red dot. It has eaten everything I've fed it, mostly junk bulk ammo. I run it dry and it runs like a sewing machine. The other is...

    Seriously considering JP15 professional. Need input.

    I've had hit and miss accuracy from my JP rifles. I have one that's amazing, and three others that would not meet your requirement for accuracy. I've spent a ton of time doing load development for the three that weren't so hot, and never found a combination that worked. By contrast, I've had...

    Where to buy a DBAL-D2?

    Seems like everywhere I look they are exactly the same price. I'm assuming that's Steiner imposing minimum advertised price. Any suggestions on where to get a better deal?

    Daniel Defense DD5V5 - optic suggestions

    I've had an NX8 for quite a while now. I guess I was an early adopter. I'd seen the complaints about the center dot being too big, but for my purposes it's a non issue. I'd not heard about the fisheye thing. After reading the comments, I went back and looked. It's definitely there at 1X...

    Bushnell LRHS2 or Vortex Razor LHT?

    I have the 3-15 LHT on an extremely lightweight AR built for a match where I have to carry it a lot (like 50 miles). It ticked enough boxes for my use. It's a long range event, so I'll only ever shoot it at 15x, so SFP is irrelevant to me. The locking elevation turret and zero stop were a big...

    Best mini-red dot for NV use?

    The choices I think I've heard referenced as being candidates are the Trijicon RMR, SRO, and the Leupold Delta Point NV. It's going to get mounted on top of a LPVO. I'm worried it'll get banged around which leads me to the RMR, but I've seen several reviewers rate the other two as better...

    Sonic cleaner pro-tip

    Super smart idea. I clean my .22 cans in CLR in the ultrasonic. Works amazingly quickly and well. I hated using so much CLR, though. Thanks for sharing!
