    Night Vision PVS-10 Value

    Hey all, I've had a PVS-10 for over a decade now, had delusions originally of building an M24 but that ship has long sailed. This optic has been sitting unused and I feel like it should move on to someone who appreciates it. With that being said, I have absolutely no idea what a fair value is...

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    I'm looking into purchasing my first thermal clip on, and have been trying to read up on my options. My use case is a 16" AR with 1-10x March shorty scope, and American made is a must (I refuse to pay for optics made by our Chinese comrades). I'm trying to stay in the $3-4k budget, which I know...

    Night Vision NVGs to APO Address?

    I'm currently deployed overseas and am interested in purchasing a FP laser and NVG combo that I can test and train with while here. I know that both the items I'm looking to purchase are ITAR restricted, and while this is likely a stupid question, is it possible to ship these items to the APO...

    Rifle Scopes LPVO Comparison: March Shorty 1-10x vs Kahles K18i-2 1-8x

    I am looking to get a LPVO for my 16" 5.56mm AR and have settled between the March 1-10 shorty and the Kahles K18i-2. I know that these optics are kind of comparing apples to oranges as the March is a dual focal plane while the Kahles is a SFP, but I've never used a DFP reticle before so I am...

    Suppressors KAC 7.62 QDC CRS-PRG Feedback

    I'm looking to make my first step into the suppressor world and looking to suppress my AR-15, currently I have a 16" barrel 5.56mm but I am also looking to build a 24" 6ARC upper and 9" 300blk upper. My current rifle as well as planned uppers have/will have adjustable gas blocks. I know some...

    6mm ARC vs 6mm Max

    Hey all, been awhile since I've posted here and hoping to get the Hide's advice on an upper build I am looking at pursuing. I currently have a 16" 223 Wylde build that is my do all rifle based on a Seekins lower with LMT SOPMOD stock, Spikes T2 buffer, Tubbs flat wire spring, and Geissele SSA-E...

    Another 1903 education thread

    Hey guys, I found an ad for a 1903a4 clone from an a3 receiver near me and the asking price seems very low to me so I was hoping to get some advice from the hide before taking a look. I know next to nothing about Springfields (I've been more into K98s) but I've always loved World War II history...

    7mm saum in AICS CIP magazine

    I'm doing the research into making a build using a Sako M995 action I have and I'd like to make it a 7mm saum, and it looks like my best option (if not only option) for the stock/chassis is a KRG Whiskey 3. The Whiskey 3 with the M995 inlet is made to be compatible with AICS CIP magazines, so my...

    Another Pack/Ruck question

    My unit is going to be deploying again in the fairly near future and I am looking to upgrade my gear. Our battalion is fairly lenient when it comes to getting your own equipment, and needless to say I despise the issued molle ruck. During any kind of extended ruck march with it I am constantly...

    MSA Sordins for Comms Headset?

    I've been interested in getting a good set of electronic hearing protection for some time now for shooting and from the research I've done MSA Sordins look like the best. I'm a truck commander in a heavy weapons company and my unit is going through convoy operations and gunnery, and as of now we...
