    Yeah, or email. I had the same question about the Nucleus rail when I got it and had an answer same day (IIRC) via email.

    American Rifle Company New Archimedes Action, New Xylo Chassis, and major Mausingfield revision

    It sounds like you are suggesting ARC blamed the customer here. Spife7980 sort of mentioned it as a possibility, but that's not ARC, thats just a member here trying to think of reasons for the wear line. I have a wear line just like that on my Ruger Precision Rifle after a bunch of range trips...

    Suppressors Who asked about 5.56 through .30 AAC cans?

    There is a company called ECCO Machine and Fabrication (you can find them on facebook) that can convert AAC cans to use Omega mount inserts (like all the Omega mounts, Dead Air KeyMo, Q Plan B, Griffin Plan A, etc). I'm sending my old AAC M4-1000 for them to convert for use with a Dead Air...

    Suppressors Suppressor Application DENIED!!! Something to be aware of.

    The Form 4 address and initial check cashing is done by the bank itself. The Forms are then sent to the ATF for processing. So, the initial check cashing always works because it's not the government doing the work.

    Suppressors Suppressor Application DENIED!!! Something to be aware of.

    Nothing annoys me more than bureaucrats making up rules as they go. Doubly so when it's pointless paperwork issues. I forgot to sign my Form 4 last year and they kicked it back. I just needed to sign it and send it back. I got my approval in a week. Yet, in this case, they deny it. Just dumb.

    Suppressors 30 Cal K cans on 5.56 SBRs

    I have the Sandman-K. It's a great silencer if you set your expectations properly. That can be said for all of the -K cans. All -K cans will be louder than normal length ones and can be flashy depending on the round being shot. I'm usually shooting with other people around at various ranges, so...

    Gunsmithing KAC IRX 3.1 HELP!

    Operation Parts is also a good source for all KAC parts. Also, they have hand guard panel kits (plastic "bars" for the bottom and sides) that have hand stops and such if you are looking for that sort of item rather than just a vertical grip...

    Suppressors Sandman Ti not concentric.

    I had an issue with one of their E-Brakes (It would not screw on to my Sandman-K. Other end caps and the Nomad E-Brake worked fine). I emailed them with some pictures. They responded the same day, asked for my address and sent me a replacement. Once I verified that the new one worked, they...

    MPA RAT base slips on MPA chassis

    That's the reason Aera 419 came out with their ARCALock rails and clamps. They use a sawtooth pattern on the edge of the dovetail to mechanically engage with their clamp. Luckily, I don't have an issue with my MPA and RAT Harris Base

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    My only two thought are: Is the Kestrel in PC/Mobile bluetooth mode? (Setting, Bluetooth (Enter) Connection: Left or right to change, enter to accept. Make sure you don't have any other apps launched that could grab the bluetooth signal and attach to the Kestrel (Strelock, The weather based...

    Kestrel Meters Ballistics Official Thread

    That's one of the reasons for the app update. The new firmware is more easily deployed. I am eagerly awaiting the iphone app update.

    K-Bars What Knife is in your pocket right now?

    I carry a Kershaw Leek. I like the thinner blade for cutting up things like cardboard where thicker blades can drag. It's also cheap enough that if I loose it, no big deal.

    Rifle Scopes Ran Out of Adjustment...What Do I Do?

    The SWFA site lists the 16x42 as having 30 mil total elevation. My 16x42 mil-quad has 17 mils (plus a couple tenths) from a 100 yard zero to top out on a 0 MOA base on my old savage AXIS. For references, it's zero'ed right on the number "4" on the scale under the elevation turret. With a 20 MOA...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Alloy framed 1911?

    I have two different friends with DW Guardians (One in 45 and one in 9mm). Both are amazing guns and shoot great. I really liked them. I have the all stainless DW CBOB and it's great too, but I really liked the weight of the Guardian. Personally, I own a Springfield Champion Operator (aluminum...
