    Value on older HK rifles?

    I've been offered a trade toward a couple older HK rifles. The problem is I have no idea on their value. Can someone ball park them for me? ...not looking for anything exact. First is an HK-94, pre-86. Says it's CA state police marked. It's got the 16" barrel and fixed stock. Comes with...

    Got my TAD Ranger Hoodie today

    Picked it up at lunch time. It was 20 degrees and windy when I left work tonight and it kept me just as warm as my North Face Atlas does ...with significantly less weight and bulk. Very pleased already with just that fact. Dunno how I feel about the actual hood yet, it's a little on the big...

    LWRC rifles in 5.56

    Are they accurate? ...worth the money? I've read hit or miss things about the REPR, but I'm not finding much on the 5.56 models. Thinking about grabbing a 16" SPR in the group buy.

    Pre-retardation SCAR price?

    What was a new SCAR going for before the rampant stupidity? Looking for 16 and 17. Thanks

    Rifle Scopes 44mm vs 58mm objective on USO SN-3

    I am wanting a USO SN-3 3.8-22 ERGO and the only option I can't decide on if the objective size. Can I get your opinion on the pros vs cons for the two sizes? The obvious to me is the 44 will sit lower on the rifle, but the 58 will gather more light. More to it than that?

    LWRC SPR in 5.56 w/ 18" spiral barrel?

    I swear I have seen these at one point, but I can't find a new or used one anywhere. The only 5.56 with the spiral barrel is the 14.7" or 16.1" I know the REPR comes in an 18" spiral, but I'm looking for 5.56.

    Magazine size?

    It must be the week of dumb questions for me... For you guys with bolt guns that run magazines, what's your preferred size? ...5 or 10 rounds? I just got my McRee last week and I need to order a couple mags.

    Rifle Scopes Dumb question on scope re-mounting...

    When I sold my old rifle, I pulled the scope and left it in the rings. When I put the scope on my new rifle, can I just re-mount it in the rings as is? ...or should it be removed from the rings first and redone from scratch?

    Suppressors Thread adapter for AI rifles?

    I am probably going to pick up an AE MKIII in the next couple weeks. The ones I see in stock right now are all threaded metric. Does anyone make an adapter from the metric pattern (M18?) to 5/8-24 so I can use my Cyclone with it? Or would it just be better to get the barrel plain/unthreaded...

    Better than stock selector switch?

    I just put together an RRA lower (AR15) using a DPMS LPK and the selector switch is borderline loose. Enough so that I don't consider it safe (pun intended). I'm hoping it's the selector and not the actual hole in the receiver. I figure if I have to replace it, I might as well see if there's...

    Book recommendation: House To House by Bellavia

    I just finished reading this yesterday: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000W5MI12/ I thought I had at least a vague idea of what soldiers went through during combat from the media and documentaries, but this shed a whole new perspective. There were parts of the book so exciting where I was literally...

    Upper receiver effect on accuracy?

    For the AR-15 platform, does the upper receiver itself have an effect on accuracy? I'm looking to build a new rifle with the focus on accuracy. I have a Douglas barrel from CLE with matched bolt, but I don't know what upper receiver to get. Is any particular type (or brand) going to give an...

    ID'ing Douglas vs WOA barrel?

    I have an AR barrel that I bought about a year ago. It was used but unfired so there is no paperwork with it, and I can't find the email trail with the buyer. I don't remember if it was a Douglas or WOA. Is there anyway to tell the difference? The only markings are a "35" up near the collar...

    Suppressors Blowback blows

    I got to shoot my new AAC SPR/M4 this weekend, the first time I ever shot a suppressor. The first face full of gas I took was a surprise. I was talking to a buddy of mine about a gasbuster charging handle. He suggested looking up using RTV around the handle to create a seal. Has anyone done...

    Suppressors Anything special about AAC Rockset?

    So I just picked up my SPR/M4 last night. The directions say that when installing the Blackout suppressor mount, to use the included Rockset. I'm assuming this is a thread locking compound. However, I bought the BO mount used, so there is not Rockset. Can I just use a high strength Locktite?

    Suppressors First 1911, need advice

    So I am ready to buy my first 1911. I was initially going to go el cheapo and get an RIA, but decided to spend a little more and get a quality (I hope) pistol. I've decided on an S&W and I think I have it narrowed down to these two: http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/s...playErrorView_Y...

    Getting an RCBS Trim Mate station...

    Aside from the tools that come with it, is there anything else I'll need right off the bat for reloading .308? These are what's listed as coming with the unit: inside chambering tool; outside deburring tool; small and large primer pocket brushes; small and medium case neck brushes Thanks, Frank

    Suppressors Holster for Beretta Elite II ?

    I think I'm going to try my hand at an IDPA shoot so I need a holster. I plan on using my Beretta Elite II and wanted to get a SERPA, but their 92 holsters all say not for the Elite/Brigadier. Does anyone have a good recommendation? Just looking for an OWB paddle type for now since there's no...
