    Sako QUAD - CUSTOM Trainer @ EuroOptic - YOU SPEC!

    Unfortunately I'm still looking. Brownells used to have them, but with their website update a year or two ago it seems all the gun schematics and factory replacement parts disappeared off their website and the old stocking part numbers went dead. Beretta USA and MGW don't have them either. I...

    Rifle Scopes New for 2025, the Kahles K540i

    Ilya posted it recently in another thread. Look at the bottom for adjusted expiration date. He believes it to be correct as some of the later stacked patents were abandoned. Post in thread 'New Schmidt Bender?'...

    Rifle Scopes New for 2025, the Kahles K540i

    Maybe they'll update the review after June 2026 when the Swarovski patent expires and they can compare a full FOV S&B 6-36... That would be a much more fair comparison than using the current FOV limited US market version. I'm going to try my best not to buy any more scopes until after June of...

    SOLD Badger C1 cantilever mount, black, 30mm, 1.54"

    New Schmidt Bender?

    With the adjusted expiration date of 6-25-26 it certainly looks like we'll be starting to see wide AFOV scopes from more manufacturers starting to hit the US market at that time. We know S&B already has full >22 degree AFOV versions of the 3-18 and 6-36 for non-US markets, but I wonder if there...

    Accessories BRASS GRACEFUL BALBAL !!!!!!! IS A SCAMMER beware

    The handwritten note on paper next to the item used to work to filter out most scammers (especially with a torn edge on the paper as it was harder to edge select in photoshop, and the editing would be very obvious) but now it's something the scammers can pretty easily photoshop. I've received a...

    Accessories BRASS GRACEFUL BALBAL !!!!!!! IS A SCAMMER beware

    Wonder if these accounts are all the same person/group and using the same IP address... Similar names, all recent account creation dates, none of them have made any posts, but a couple accounts have reacted to a few posts. The Balbal account was reported by other members recently too...

    New Schmidt Bender?

    That is an interesting point, as the 3-20, while it does not visibly tunnel like the 5-25, does lose just a little AFOV down at 3x, even though it's 24.06 degrees at 20x. Still interesting to see the selective compliance/enforcement of the Swarovski patent, as several non-European made scopes...

    New Schmidt Bender?

    Many of the older S&B designs like the 5-25 are down in the 21-ish degree AFOV region so the patent doesn't have any impact on them. As far as newer scopes, the 6-36 and 3-18 x 42 Meta are affected and have a much narrower FOV for the US market, and as far as I know that's currently the only...

    Make absolutely sure you PM me and don't reply to some scammer that makes an account with a name similar to mine pretending to be me... They love to pounce on "I'll take it" posts. I just sent you a PM.

    I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

    Connor said they're expected sometime in Q4, so I'd expect official info and specs from vortex as we get close to the release date. Vortex typically doesn't drop all the info and add the product page to their website until things are ready or nearly ready to ship. Might have homes for 4 of...

    Rifle Scopes New Schmidt & Bender PM2 6-36x56

    I first saw those crappy plastic battery caps on Aussie market S&B scopes, and it was for regulatory reasons. Australia was the first place I know of that had a law that required all devices with coin or button style batteries to have child resistant battery compartments... The law probably...

    Any love for the Zermatt Matterhorn?

    I want to try one. It's one of the few machined chassis I'm aware of other than the ARC Xylo that has the grip to butt area shaped to allow a thumb placement near the centerline like a traditional stock, and that's a feature that I really like. My thumb cramps up after a while if I float it off...

    What's the Go-To 223 Brass Now?

    True, LC is usually a good option and was my go to for years, especially when you could easily buy it new. However, the last 2 batches of once fired LC I purchased all died a very early death from a very high rate of neck splits and body cracks running lengthwise between the case head and...
