    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    Depends on what you consider manageable. I want to say it weighed in at 15.1 lbs. Even a 16" pencil barrel and lighter optic would still result in a rather heavy hunting rifle, but close to manageable enough.

    Form 1 supressors mass denial.

    I don't. They make way too much money off the current tax stamp price. If they price the peasants out, there won't be enough shooters that can justify the price to fund them. Now bumping it to $300? $500? Maybe...

    NF 5-25 to smaller scope?

    Did you use the 2.5-20x, or only the 4-32x? The 2.5-20x is the one that has the noticeable compromises and everyone says the 4-32x is good. The only NX8 defenders I ever see are NV Clip-On or 32x users. OP, 4-16x42 is my primary optic. I tried a NX8 2.5-20x to potentially replace it as I wanted...

My rifles bounce around in trucks, tractors, and quads...

    what would it cost to get you to drop test ur kit?

    No, it is unreasonable. Why? Because anyone that actually uses their gear knows that EVERYTHING can and will break under the right circumstances. NF, ZCO, TT, S&B, Burris, Bushnell, Steiner, and even the mighty Quigley Ford. Unless you are going to test every possible impact angle on every...

    Ballistic Helmets - Too Much Protection?

    We aren't assuming its a SHTF question. We are pointing out that the weight is absolutely worth it in some situations and overkill in others. You asked: If I am kicking down doors in some sandbox where everyone and their donkey owns an AK variant and racks a few off at you every other day, I...

    Ballistic Helmets - Too Much Protection?

    This really nails it. People wanting to play soldier during a hurricane are very different than actual soldiers deploying on a mission where shots are almost guaranteed to come your way. If you need a helmet in a SHTF situation, you likely already made some fatal mistakes. I will gladly stick a...
