    Fieldcraft ACU Camouflage pattern really that bad?

    Olive drab, aka 107s, as a color, does tend to blend well with the surroundings until its been washed so much that it almost turns white. However, it has HORRIBLE IR signature at night and when wet as it turns the wearer into a large black blob that is easily picked up. MC has been tested...

    Fieldcraft ACU Camouflage pattern really that bad?

    I'm just going to have to say that you might want to do some recent camo research as your statement(s) are not accurate with regard to the olive drab comment and the MC "barely" being better than ACU comment. I've worn OG 107s and am currently wearing MC uniforms for work and it is my ( and...

    Rifle Scopes US optics 5-25 question

    The problem is that no one ever thinks their baby is ugly. USO does make some really good optics that are indeed top shelf level. Have they had some issues in the past? Sure, show me a company that hasn't and I'll show you a company that hasn't been around long. Do not make the mistake of...

    Movie Theater Lillyhammer on netflix

    Have watched all of the episodes. I like it, its just different and a bit weird that it doesn't come across as a typical re-hashed show.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Beretta M9 Question

    I know what you're experiencing, it happens more frequently while dry firing then it does while shooting live rounds. sometimes you might even get a dead trigger(no resistance/no hammer movement) on the trigger when you pull it to the rear too quickly between shots. It's something that seems to...

    Was told blue printing/truing isn't all that good?

    ok, thats a little bit different statement than your initial post. I now see what your smith was telling you and would agree that when you go full deal feature wise as you stated, then yes, it can cost almost or close to what a custom action out the gate would cost you. Not exact, but close in...

    Was told blue printing/truing isn't all that good?

    Find a new gunsmith, he's either an idiot or was trying to sell you an action. What Dsnipe posted above is a good summation. There is absolutely nothing wrong with truing up a rem 700 action.

    Portable PLRF "Reflector" - Reflective Material?

    A suggestion along the lines of what LowLight recommended and also relatively inexpensive and easy to carry would be one of those car windshield foldable sunshades that are reflective/silver and have wire in the edges to give it shape...

    Shot timers

    I use that one too. It works OK and isn't bad. However the iphone battery life is the limiting factor if you plan on using it a lot at the range. I finally broke down and just bought a Pocket Pro original timer

    Kestrel, valuable tool or waste of money?

    Holy fuck, Some peoples comments make my head hurt. Read and follow Lowlights comments in this and other threads on this topic and you won't go wrong, especially if you're shooting at greater distances than 1000m. It's Monday isn't it? :D

    Why does everyone do this?

    Please tell me you're joking? You do know that in your subscription list there is a box you can check on the right if you don't want notifications/alerts.

    Night Vision Pvs 15 thermal overlay

    COTI/AN PAS-29 works amazingly well on NVGs or in handheld mode with 1x and 2x magnification. The various modes it can be set to also allows the user to tailor the image to his environmental conditions. It's by far the best clip on thermal I've used.

    ipad typing issues

    Let me guess, you're using a bluetooth keyboard, probably a Logitech or Zagg? Easy solution is to not use the caps lock button and just use the shift button when you want to type in caps. I don't know what causes the problem but it's the quickest and simplest solution I have found.
