    Why is it stupid?

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glocks Work. Period. End of Story.

    Glocks may not innovate. But they were the first commercially successful striker fired pistol. They work. The striker system is genius. But it has some drawbacks as well. The trigger will never be like a custom 1911. But with work (some polishing, spring swaps etc) they can get better...

    Range Report Public Range chaos

    Berryville is about an hour. Mayflower is about 3 hours. I’m in bentonville. Trying to get on the wait list for ROGERS gun club. Their range is 5 minutes from me. The guy I talked to clearly had not spent a lot of time with his pistol. When the range got called hot he would walk in...

    Range Report Public Range chaos

    Went to the o lot public range anywhere near me today. Hobbes state park in ROGERS, AR. I had to ask two different shooters to please not point their pistols at me as they were loading and manipulating the slide. Eventually I left and am wondering how there haven’t been more fatalities...

    Gunsmithing Concentric Chambers ???

    Yeah. I get that! I imagine some of the “experts” on here have answered the same questions thousands of times. The guy I study Jiu Jitsu with probably has taught how to do the rear naked choke a million times. I can see it in his face sometimes. Hahaha. I know it gets old sometimes...

    Gunsmithing Concentric Chambers ???

    It must be a burden to have all that knowledge and constantly annoyed by the pesky enthusiasts. I wonder if doctors feel the same way? I am playing devils advocate I guess. But just bugs me when cranky people flame a guy for asking a fringe question. Of course he kind of brought it on...

    Gunsmithing Concentric Chambers ???

    I agree the target tells all. And for the record, I don’t have an interest in chamber concentricity. Knowledge isn’t valuable based solely on its action ability. And trying to limit what knowledge someone should seek seems Odd. That doesn’t mean there are no stupid questions- I’ll grant...

    Gunsmithing Concentric Chambers ???

    This happens in every industry. Nutrition? Automotive? Apparel? Manufacturers and marketers try to sell you on some attribute or benefit. Consumers are hungry for information. And much of it may be beyond their understanding. But they will still preference companies that are...

    Gunsmithing Concentric Chambers ???

    I don’t even know what esoteric means. One of my sons is off at college and is getting into shooting. And he always messages me and tells me he wants an AK or some other flavor of the day. And I tell him I want a JP or some other high end custom gun. And one day he got mad at me for just...

    Movie Theater Free Solo

    My 17 year old daughter wants to be a climbing bum. So I took her to see it. He clearly has issues. No one has that kind of drive without some serious psych issues. But those issues have led him to amazing accomplishments. The most impressive thing to me. Don’t be fooled. He rehearsed...

    Heel/Foot Pain HELP!

    I had plantar fascitis and it band syndrome for almost ten years. Started in the army and could never get rid of it. Then one day out of desperation I went to see a masseuse. A large heavy woman with strong hands and good understanding of anatomy. She had me in tears. Literally. For me...

    Rifle Scopes Just ordered a Cronus BTR from gr8fuldoug - need advice

    Yeah. Didn’t know how to account for the rail height. Didn’t see that spec when I ordered. So. Will see how it works out!

    Rifle Scopes Just ordered a Cronus BTR from gr8fuldoug - need advice

    So am looking at a set of nightforce ultralight 4 hole rings. Says the mediums are .334 to base of tube. Highs are .455. Is my math right. .334 + half the tube diameter is right at one inch high for center of scope. Where the high comes in at 1.12 inches? Is that the right way to calculate?

    Which is adjustable? Seems like they both would be adjustable?

    Rifle Scopes Just ordered a Cronus BTR from gr8fuldoug - need advice

    Yeah. That’s what I was wondering. It doesn’t have a rail. The rings on there now mount directly to a leupold one piece base that is mounted to the action. I’m thinking I need to get a pic rail to replace that and then rings to go on the pic rail. What’s the advantage to separate rings...

    Rifle Scopes Just ordered a Cronus BTR from gr8fuldoug - need advice

    How do I know how high the rings need to be? If it’s a 56mm objective do I jest need the center of rings to be a little more than 28mm high?
