    Fuck...anyone ever get floored by the past?

    I was 20 years active Army so it happens to me all the time but the latest one was pretty funny. I served with a LT in Alaska and I knew she had moved onto better pastures and had a more successful career than me and I now have long since retired and working for the Army as a civilian. I was...

    Scary clothing banned in combat.

    Well we wouldn't want to think war has anything to do with intimidation and death would we?

    New guy from Europ

    Looks like by the rattle can on the first rifle you have spent some time in the desert? I am an Iraq and Afghanistan vet. I ran into quite a few French Mountain troops with their huge berets in Afghanistan.

    Is the War on Guns a War on Men?

    well just read this and tell me Men wearing Make-Up...what has happened to our culture that men are turning into women; man-buns, make-up, next panty's. Liberals think that if they can demote man from this testosterone driven war-machine everything would work so much better in the world . But...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Recommendations for My Circumstances?

    I think you should spend some time in the PX section looking at optics. You can get some really good deals on various scopes. I have two 223 bolt rifles and one has a Steiner Military 4-16 and the other a Steiner MX5I 3-15 (MSR reticle) and do the job very well. You can pick up a Seiner...

    CaseyMC is a good guy to deal with. We did a trade on optics that had some money exchanged and all went very well.

    M1A Loaded - Upgrade or Trade? M1A vs Scar vs AR 10

    M1A rifles are lot of fun to shoot but if you are going down the precision world (depending on your version of precision) you are shooting it for purposes it was not intended for. If you are good with 2 MOA average, you are good to go, but if not, than it will take lots of money to get it down...

    Triggers - Which have the best reputations for reliability?

    How about Jewell triggers? I have one on a Surgeon action build from Accurate Ordnance and have no complaints.

    Rifle Scopes Stiener T5XI vs Bushnell DMR ii

    Who am I to go against the Dark Lord of Optics; but, I have had both optics and sold one - the T5Xi. The Burris and Steiner were close in regards to glass with an edge going to the Steiner, but not enough to pay full price for the Steiner. If you can get the Steiner for $1300 in the PX that...

    Suppressors AAC lifetime warranty doesn't mean "lifetime".....?????.....

    And if you are local to a suppressor builder you can drive to them if you need maintenance work vice never getting AAC to pick up the phone or answer an email.

    Suppressors AAC lifetime warranty doesn't mean "lifetime".....?????.....

    AAC is the Walmart of Suppressors...they are everywhere but you rarely want to buy from them if you can help it. Every gun shop has AAC cans and it is for a reason , they are cheap, and they give sweetheart deals to their dealers. I always tell new people to the NFA world that the majority of...

    Mk 13 Mod 7 to the Marines.

    I am sure the 12k per rifle has to do with maintenance contracts to service the rifles - going to burn out those 300 Win Mag barrels pretty quickly I bet.

    308 Ammo... I know I know

    I will tell you another manufacturer that makes great ammunition but not all lot of people use it nor talk about it - Norma 168 ; you can get it for around $20 but you are left with great brass for reloading. Out of a 21" 308 this are my Magnetospeed results: 168 Norma -09/03/17/Temp 80deg/Baro...

    Rifle Scopes Leup Mk4 on a Barrett 50 M99

    I get to shoot at a 1500 yard area several times a year. The quick answer is you run with what you have and it works well and spotting shouldn't be an issue; however, what would be nice, in this situation, is that you have someone on a spotting scope that can help you spot misses and hits as...

    Rifle Scopes Resale value Mil Vs. MOA

    I used to be a MOA guy and sold all my MOA optics to changeover to MIL. It was not easy and I did take some hits on the prices, but in the end, I am glad I changed over to MIL. I don't know of the percentage but I think it is a very high percentage that use MIL over MOA. So there is a much...

    Bad Rifles

    I will say that in the 223 category of ammunition, that is not as well thought of, is the Norma 77 Grain bullet series of ammunition. It shoots great and it leaves you with good brass to reload with. I have had some great. Out of a 20" Remington Action 223 Bolt rifle here are the numbers with a...

    Bad Rifles

    don447, you had already gave your bonafides in your first post so you don't owe anything to anyone on this forum. Some people expect that every rifleman knows about Sniper's Hide and we know that's not true at all probably because you were out doing it for a profession. You are not the only...
