    M16/AR15 Function

    Re: M16/AR15 Function Here's what's going on inside the bolt/carrier... Gas enters the space between the gas ring on the bolt, and the hole in the BCG through which the firing pin extends. That space is called the cylinder. It's a lot like the cylinder in a car engine. The gas is under...

    Suppressors Saiga 12?

    Re: Saiga 12? Everyone should have at least one. A ban (or classification as a DD) is probably just a matter of time, they have so much more firepower than the old "street-sweeper".

    US Optics anti-cant device, making it right

    Re: Avoid US Optics anti-cant device I love USO, but I had the same basic experience as the OP with their swivel level. After playing with it, I do not think that the bubble level is really much of an effective improvement over my natural kinesthetic sense (there is a rare case in...

    Rifle Scopes Glass and rings for my M1A in a JAE-100......

    Re: Glass and rings for my M1A in a JAE-100...... You want the lowest rings you can get when scoping an M1A. I have a USO SN3 3.2-17x44mm scope with low ARMS #22 rings mounted to my LRM M25 in a JAE-100G2 stock. If I want to switch to irons, I can easily remove the scope because the rings...

    Rifle Scopes USO ST-10 "Proof of Concept" versus SS HD 10x

    Re: USO ST-10 "Proof of Concept" versus SS HD 10x You mentioned you're getting a 50. If you mean a 50 BMG, then GET THE EXTENDED EYE RELIEF eyepiece! You'll thank me later.

    The ultimate tactical accessory!

    http://blastboxers.com/index.html Now, why didn't I think of this? Every soldier will want a pair! (But I wonder if the fabric "breathes"...)

    Entry Level Decisions - Critique Please

    Re: Entry Level Decisions - Critique Please That's an excellent plan! I strongly advise learning fundamentals on a .22 using iron sights. It'll be a lot of fun, and Anschutz makes a very accurate, durable rifle.

    Thread on or QD suppressor

    Re: Thread on or QD suppressor My free advice... If you want to also have a muzzle device of some kind on your rifle, like a flash hider, compensator or even a brake, then I'd go with a QD system that allows for that. Otherwise, you don't really gain a whole lot from QD except for added...

    Magpul AICS Magazines?

    Re: Magpul AICS Magazines? I don't see this ever happening. There are probably three orders of magnitude fewer AIs and AICS builds around than ARs. Why would anyone with any business sense choose to invest in developing an inexpensive product for such a niche market?

    safe recommendations

    Re: safe recommendations If you're going to look at Graffunder and AmSec, you might as well look at a Pendleton as well. They have them at McBride's, if you go to Ausin. You can store up to 30 long-guns, and they'll all be much more accessible than in a regular safe.

    Suppressors GemTech, or AAC?

    Re: GemTech, or AAC? I like my Gemtech Outback II (22LR) and AAC Evolution-9 (9mm). For 308, I'm happiest with my KAC SR25 silencer but that's not an option for your FAL. I have a Gemtech HVT that is accurate with my Rem 700 but opens up groups on my M1A very badly. My Fisher 308 can is...

    LaRue scope cases

    I just ordered another scope mount from LaRue, and while I was shopping their website I noticed their new "DilloARmor" scope cases. I added a large one to the cart just to check it out. It turns out, it's the perfect size to fit an SN3-2200! It's also a very nice piece of kit, like all their...
