Re: Norinco 12ga 870 copy
They are decent guns for the money. They are a little rougher than the Remington and the finish is thinner than the 870. Most parts are interchangable but may require a little fitting. I've picked up 5 used 870s for under $200 a piece in great shape. If you can find...

Re: Sako TRG-22, Nightforce and Simrad questions
So far B&H and SRT Supply have said they can get Sako and SRT also does Nightforce. Still open to other options but I have a start now.

A couple questions:
Can anyone point me toward a Sako LE dealer in the southeast (preferably FL)?
Same question for Nightforce optics dealer?
Finally, can anyone confirm that a Simrad unit can be used with the Nightforce 5.5-22x50 NXS? We currently have Leupolds but would like to go to...
Re: Question for LE Swat Snipers
The dept has the ability to change their policy. If they are unwilling to do that I would be unwilling to risk my high dollar rifle. Another issue that potentially could arise is a state or federal law prohibiting agencies from selling off old guns and...
Re: SWFA 1-4X SS
I don't want FFP on a 1-4x optic and want capped or at least locking turrets. FFP makes the reticle too small on 1x and I don't plan on dialing turrets on CQB/mid range carbine. I want a simple reticle that draws my eye to the center but also gives me points of reference for...
Re: gunsmiths of color
I don't have a clue what most smiths look like, and I don't care. If I only choose my smith based on "well, he looks like me", I might get shitty work. I want to see pictures of his work, not his face.
Re: Remington 700 Varmint
The factory DBM uses different bottom metal and a different stock. You might be able to modify your stock to work but would have to change the bottom metal. The factory system sucks anyways, I wouldn't recommend it.
I was talking optics with a local LE sniper and he mentioned they had experienced a POI shift when a paralex adjustment was made on their Nightforce scopes. Has anyone experienced this? Is it a known issue or an isolated incident? I am looking to move into the higher end optics and have been...
Re: Who makes smith and wesson's lowers and uppers?
My understanding is that they were originally made by CMT but now are made in house. I'm not 100% on that though.
Re: thinking about a 22 pistol auto
I have had them all (still have 3 Rugers and a Buckmark) and I prefer them in this order:
Ruger
Browning
S&W
All of the shoot quite well and are reliable with ammo they like. If you do get the Smith, do not dry fire it for any reason.
Re: Maxpedition Versa Pack ?
They are nice bags but a backpack is more stable and comfortable with heavier loads. I wouldn't try to go over about 5-10 lbs in a versapack.
