    Rifle Scopes Need opinions on most rugged scopes..

    This is a spin off to this thread: http://www.snipershide.com/shooting/snipers-hide-rifle-scopes/220779-swfa-ss-parallax-knob-fell-off.html I'm wanting feedback from experienced shooters as to what are the most rugged scopes. By rugged, I mean that holds up to the beating a FN SCAR gives them...

    Rifle Scopes SS 3-15x42 FFP

    I don't know why this scope isn't more popular. It has good glass, reticle and magnification range, all at a great price. The only thing it's really missing is zero stop and If it isn't being used for competition, this shouldn't be an issue. As far as I'm concerned, there isn't a better scope...

    Love this rifle..

    I received a FN SCAR 17 recently and I have to say that I love this rifle! It's light, accurate, great ergonomics, and nice features like a folding stock. Disassembly and cleaning is a breeze, it's very low maintenance. The only fault it has/had is the trigger, which I remedied with a...

    Rifle Scopes SWFA SS Parallax knob fell off

    New SWFA SS 3-15x42. Brand new, was sighting the scope in today and the knob fell off during my second shot. This is my first SWFA scope and my confidence level with this product is very low. Now I get to find out how good their customer service is..

    Scar 17

    Hello all, It's been awhile since I've posted here. I scanned a few pages of this section and don't see anything about the SCAR 17 and I was wondering what the Hide's thoughts are on this rifle. Thanks..

    Front sight post over extended

    I'm zeroing my newly assembled AR (PSA Dissy Upper) using the 50 yard zero. In order to zero properly, the front sight post is extending past the ears. I've not encountered this before and I'm uncomfortable with the front sight extended out so far. I'm thinking a taller front sight post will...

    Need to rant...

    I've seen some members (posters) try and sell items at fuck you prices on this site. I generally agree with those who are ripping their asses apart for doing so. Before becoming a member and daily reader of these forums, I was a regular on a less reputable site. My first few posts on here...

    Need advice for 10/22 takedown

    I want the scoped rear half to fit in the provided case. I thought this would be a good scope for its overall length and quality for the price Scope . I'm concerned with ring height (rotating to take it down, also objective contacting rear sight). Anyone using this weaver on their 10/22 td...

    Mcrees and rem700 based action, which aics mags?

    These? AICS AX This would be for a short action (.308). I'm unsure of the specific AICS mag designations and the applications to the Mcrees chassis. Thanks!

    Leica CRF 1600 problems?

    This rangefinder always gives me a barometric pressure reading of 13.something. Weather info gives me a much different reading. Today for example, the weather info website says it's 30.04. My Leica says it's 13.43. This has a large impact on my ballistics calculator. Wondering if I have a...

    FN SPR and Mcrees chassis

    Can I drop a FN A1/2 that comes with the factory bottom metal that uses the 4 round detachable magazines straight into a Mcrees chassis and use AICS 5 and 10 round magazines without modification? Thanks in advance!

    GAP Crusader

    I'm looking very hard at this rifle Crusader and am ready to pull the trigger. I'm having trouble getting in contact with them. They show this coming with a Mcmillan A5 stock, but their pics don't show this having an adjustable cheek piece. Are there any particular cons to this model? I...

    Very Frustrated with the groupings!!!!

    I have a new FN SPR A2 in a McMillan A4 stock. The rifle has been bedded. The rifle is coupled with an IOR Valdada 3.5-18x50. The problem I'm having is flyers. Since getting this all together last week, I have about 80 rounds fired. I've been shooting 5 shot groups and every group has 1-2...

    Need help with trigger for FN SPR

    Happy Memorial Day Weekend to all. I recently received a FN SPR from Tactical Coordination and am very happy with the work he's done. With that said, I've had trouble getting consistent 5-10 shot groups with the rifle. On a few occasions I've put 3 shots (damn near) through the same hole...
