    Lightening a DPMS 300 BlackOut with 16" barrel

    Just to be clear; i did in fact research the legal differences between an AR pistol vs an AR rifle before providing my thoughts above. That is why I said "technically" a 300 Blackout pistol could satisfy my requirements. So please don't make the assumption that someone who doesn't agree with...

    Lightening a DPMS 300 BlackOut with 16" barrel

    Yeah, I think I'm coming to the same conclusion. To knock a single lb would require extensive mods using titanium and carbon fiber. Probably not the way to go for what little savings I'd realize.

    Lightening a DPMS 300 BlackOut with 16" barrel

    Technically, I could hunt with a pistol but again, I'm doing this for my grandson and really wanted to get him started with something a little more traditional than a pistol for deer hunting.

    Lightening a DPMS 300 BlackOut with 16" barrel

    Shortening the barrel to less than 16" isn't really an option (I don't believe). Gotta remember this is for a child to use while hunting. Need to avoid the NFA stuff. They may end up using this later too without oversight by an adult. Gotta keep it a rifle and not a pistol. Thanks for the...

    Lightening a DPMS 300 BlackOut with 16" barrel

    In another thread, I asked for suggestions for a youth rifle build and although I prefer a bolt action, I am now considering taking my DPMS 300 Blackout and replacing some hardware, to include potentially the barrel to knock of a pound or so from the otherwise 7.1 lb rifle. Looking for...

    Ultimate Youth rifle purchase or build (suggestions)

    That is a sweet rifle but can't deer hunt in VA with a .22 caliber rifle. Bullet diameter must be .23 or larger. Just curious as to what the components are and what the weight is?

    Ultimate Youth rifle purchase or build (suggestions)

    I really like the Manners MCS-CS stock as suggested by you and PBWalsh, but OMG, they are expensive as heck. Not to say I won't bite the bullet on that one though.

    Ultimate Youth rifle purchase or build (suggestions)

    I am looking to put together (or purchase and adapt) a very light, handy youth rifle suitable for whitetail deer hunting. The stock needs to be adjustable or available in a very short LOP (perhaps sub 12"). I am building this for a starter rifle for my three grandsons as they start to hunt...

    Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x42 w/ Illuminated IHR Reticle

    My eyes have a tough time on very fine reticles. For instance, I switched out some GEN II XRs for GEN II XLs. I haven't been able to pick up an IHR to look through it. Can you offer an opinion on this reticle for me? Thanks,

    Premier Reticles 3-15×50 Gen2 Mildot $1950 SOLD SOLD

    The point is that the potential purchaser may need warranty work in the future. Having (vice not having ) TT warranty is a very real factor to consider as a purchaser. BTW: Premier Reticles production facility was literally 10 miles from my home and I was invited to visit it several times...

    SOLD Browe BCO w/300 BLK reticle

    Couple of questions; Looking at the provided web link to Browe, I can't find warranty info except a bunch of disclaimers about what they won't do without prior authorization. With that as background, can you advise the age of this unit and whether it is covered under any factory warranty...
