    Semi-Auto Groups and Range Reports

    I want to start a resource where we put up some semi-auto groups and range reports to give people who are looking at (like I was a few years ago) what they could reasonably expect from a gas gun vs going bolt in the precision arena. Gun specs and ammo would be helpful for folks too. Load data if...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns First 1911, need a little help with a jam.

    I need a little help from some of you 1911 guys. I just bought my first 1911 a Sig Scorpion 5in bbl. I've owned and shot around a dozen pistols in all calibers, but I'm having trouble out of the gate here with something I've never seen. I took it right to the range, loaded up the two mags...

    Double tapping (the bad way)

    So recently, I've had an issue I never faced before in around 12 years of rifle shooting. I have started accidentally double tapping my LR-308 Mega Arms build. I've had the same trigger in it the whole time, and the only change has been a new Harris bipod. I have a Wilson Tactical TTU 3-Gun...

    The Spall Liner

    Hey friends, this is a question for those of you that have experience with hard armor. I'm looking at picking up a set of level III steel/titanium plates soon. These have been debated back and forth with pros and cons over ceramic, but that isn't what I'm looking to get into here. I need...

    Suppressors 2nd can on a trust

    So last year I had a trust drawn up and got a 9mm can on it. I have a new 308 sitting in my class 3 dealers waiting for me to go fill out the form 4. My adviser isn't available to help me get this figured out the rest of the way, this time around. My trust is sitting in a safe, and I haven't...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns New Glock 19 Gen 4 Range Report

    Over the last few weeks, I've been doing research on my next purchase, a Glock 19. For a number of reasons, I've decided to give it an opportunity to be my CCW gun. When I took to the internet to do my homework, I was confronted with a ton of bad press on the new 4th gens. Most were stove pipes...

    Suppressors [PICS] Silencerco Osprey on M&P

    Yesterday I finally got to shoot my new best friend, the Silencerco Osprey on a Smith & Wesson M&P 9. Did I mention I'm in love? At an indoor range I fired a mix of 147gr 9mm and some lighter stuff. I was shocked at the difference in in volume between supersonic and subsonic rounds. This thing...

    DPMS LR model decision time.

    Gentlemen, I have dedicated an $1800 budget and I've spent a good amount of time narrowing down the choices for my first 308 or 7.62NATO semi auto setup. This will be a muti-purpose rifle for ranges above what my SCAR-16S is used for. Accurate enough for target shooting at longer ranges out to...

    Almost there! Your opinion matters!

    Hello everyone, I know enough to know that I don't know enough, so I ask the really informed minds here on Sniper's Hide. I have been shooting semi auto rifles and pistols for a while now. Finally I am looking to pick up a bolt action in 308. Here's the catch... I'm a lefty, and I only want to...
