    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    Hey the background of this scene actually forms part of this discussion!! I can't remember if it was in Mark Bowden's book or not, but Delta were "Cold loading" or "Rack Loading" the gun, where in a magazine was in the rifle, but the working parts weren't cocked and there's no round in the...

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    I'm definitely not going to say, because this IS the internet, but in my defence of my snark, there was a bit of attitude in the post that I was responding to. I kinda feel justified in what goes around comes around there.

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    In my experience the Safety will go to safe with the bolt open. It's if the bolt is closed and spring released that it won't apply. Typically. I'm sure there are exceptions to this.

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    You miss-quoted "organizational" in your first sentence, and then mis-used it in your second sentence. Just to clarify, you can just say "I do X with the safety", without posting your Affiliation, Name, Rank, Service Number, NOK and Mother's Maiden name etc. ..... If you're not comfortable...

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    The first part sounds like how we are running. Safety on if there's a round in the chamber. We figure if you've chambered a round, you've done it for a reason. Bolt to the rear mag on was weird to us. Looked like it'd get debris etc into the chamber and bore potentially. Plus with enough inertia...

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    Bunch of hardcore larpers bro. We call ourselves "the organization" for street cred. The lady at the milk bar thinks it's cute we all wear matching shirts and gives us discounts on our choc malts..... You press check a bolt gun by closing the bolt to chamber a round, then raising the bolt and...

    300Blk At Distance

    This was done as part of a use case report. The guns had factory barrels fitted except the 18.5" which was custom. The blackout was being assessed in conjunction with the rifles. There are manufacturers that make better barrels than others but this largely comes down to how many burrs are...

    Use of Safeties on bolt guns

    Hey dudes; Not sure if this is the best place to ask this but I need some opinions and experience based on best use of Bolt Gun safeties. Organisationally, we use degrees of weapon readiness and use the following sequence for loading to the action condition; Bolt to the rear...

    Do you have any idea when they changed from the 5-25s to the T3 35s and why?

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    Nah lad. I saw a pic of it on facebook feed about a 6 months or so ago and since then I haven't been able to find jack on it. Starting to think I imagined it but the design replaced the telescoping butt plate with a fixed one that dropped the LOP to 13.5" fixed. The butt pad moved up and down...

    The "New" Barrett MRAD Thread!!!!!!

    What's the go with the Army's PSR mk22s optics? I was lead to believe the Mark 5 5-25x56 with the Army's patented own reticle was the optic? Was the Trmr3 a trial optic or is this what they are running now?

    Fighting the AI

    I love the AI vs debate; If you buy an AI just to buy an AI, you won't be disappointed. AI's are quality guns. They perform well. But that could be said about just about any gun in that price range. AI was it and a bit up until about 2010, then modern manufacturing caught up. Now, AI is just...

    First rifle, MRAD or custom?

    I'm in Australia. I could have a dingo's breakfast (a drink of water and a look around), and there'd be a bill magically materialise finding some way to charge me something for it;
