    Rifle Scopes Schmidt Bender PMII 3-12x50 BC cap sizes

    So I checked the sticky and for the ocular it states 18/19. Can someone tell me if it is 18 or 19? I don't want to guess and get it wrong. I am also thinking about the Tenebraex units and am wondering. If they are worth the money? Thanks for the input.

    KAC USMC M110 Carbine

    Even after finishing up my M40A3 build I was able to convince the CO to let me buy one more rifle. I have wanted an SR25 for some time and after getting to hold the carbines in the MARSOC armory here I decided to clone one. I purchased an SR25 EC on Wednesday from Lawmen's and it is at...

    Remington RACS worth the price??

    I just wanted to get some opinions on this stock. Even at the .mil price is is very spendy and wanted to see what people's opinions were on it. I would love to drop my M24 into one but damn it's a lot of money for just a stock.

    Rifle Scopes schmidt Bender 4-16x42 military scopes?

    These have been popping up from the same seller for the last couple of weeks and I can't really find any info on them. We're they ever released to the public? I don't want to buy stolen property if they never were. For the price though I would love to pick one up for my M40A3 build even though...

    Remington 700 fired while bolt closing and on safe

    Saw this over on M4Carbine and figured I would post it here. Pretty scary. I have red about this happening but never read a first hand account on a forum before. I tend to check my guns for this phenomenon before each range trip but have never experienced it. My only two R700's have M24 triggers...

    Rifle Scopes FDE Leupold scopes

    I was browsing the Leupold ITAR list and they have a whole bunch of the Mk6 and Mk8 scopes in FDE. Has anyone actually seen one other than the 3.5-10's that come with the M110? Would love to get a Mk6 3-18 in FDE at no additional cost.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner 3-12x50 or 4-16x50?

    Looks like one can get these scopes for $1200 or $1440 respectively and just wanted to hear some thoughts. It will be going on an M24 when I move a PH I have on the gun currently over to an M40A3 build when it is finished. Most of the time will be used for shooting under 500 yards. The only...

    M40A3 build at PWS in Quantico COMPLETED!! Detailed pictures on 3rd pg Range report 4th pg

    Well a 2112 warrant officer move in down the street from me and talking to him got me the itch to do an M40A3 build. I am still gathering parts and the long lead item is going to be the stock, which was ordered only two weeks ago from McMillan so it's going to be a while. The rifle will be built...

    +1 for DD Ross

    I am putting together all the parts for an M40A3/A5 USMC spec build and sent Dan a message on his website yesterday for a base and recoil lug and he called me back this morning and took care of me. He was a pleasure to talk to as well. I admit I was surprised based on what has been posted in the...

    PTG flush mount M5 DBM same as badger???

    I am looking at this DBM as an inexpensive alternative to the Badger unit but I have red a few posts stating that it is not the same footprint as the Badger. Maybe this was only on early units? Anyone have the flush mount PTG unit that can verify?

    KAC rifles worth the money?

    After fondeling an M110 at one of the armorys here on base I really want to get an M110, but hot dang are KAC rifles expensive. Just wanted to get some thoughts on this since I have never owned or even known anyone that owned one. I am hoping that they release the M110 at some point without...

    Anyone using Federal M118LR?

    This stuff is popping up anywhere from $1.25/round to $1.50/round for the current 2012 stuff. Is this the same a 175gr gold metal match? I know that reloading is better but I flat out don't have the time for that noise with 4 small kids and work. I appreciate your thoughts.

    Rifle Scopes Early generation Premier 3-15x50

    So after much inner turmoil, deliberation, and seeing one in person, I decided to get a Premier Heritage 3-15 for my first high end optic. I found an excellent shape used one with some rings for a pretty dang good deal and took delivery today. Scope is amazing, glass is perfect, and when I...

    Rifle Scopes TPS TSR non-weaver rings fit leupold Mark 4 two piece base?

    I have a leupold two piece mark 4 base and am looking to pick up a set of TSR rings and just want to make sure they will fit. I have tried searching for the answer and couldn't find a definitive one. Is the mark 4 base weaver pattern? And if so does that mean that the non "w" TSR rings won't...

    Rifle Scopes ERS 3.5-21 or XRS 4.5-30 for 308 bolt gun?

    I am sorry that I have started a few optics threads about what to get but I have optics ADD something fierce. I recently got the .mil pricing on these two scopes and they are both are less than the .mil price for the Mark6 3-18. They only thing that really appealed to me about the Mark 6 was the...

    Rifle Scopes Used USO SN3 3-17 or new Leupold Mk6 3-18?

    I have been having trouble with a decision between these two scopes. It seems with the Mil discount on the Leupold I can get either of these two scopes pretty close in price. I have wanted a USO since getting into long range shooting and had an IOR 3-18 on my first bolt gun and loved the mag...

    Rifle Scopes More Mark 6 3-18's with M5C2 turrets

    Saw this on SWFA after being linked there in a thread I was reading. They show three different scopes with the C2 turrets. Hopefully this means they will be available on the mil side but not as the DAGR system and with the TMR. Anyone know any more about this? I want the Mark 6 but would...

    Rifle Scopes Leupold Mk4 6.5-20x50 M5A2 or Mk6 3-18x44?

    Looking for some opinions on these two scopes. With the mil discount they are pretty close in price with the TMR reticle. Whichever I get will sit on my M24 that I will one day start shooting F-class with. Just looking at the specs and not having handled either the 3-18 is smaller and lighter...

    M-24R in an AICS 2.0

    Got back off leave and the new stock for the M24 was waiting for me :). Its an AICS designed to take the long action chambered in .308. What they did was take the LA chassis and milled out a SA magwell at the front of the magwell area leaving a good deal of material between the rear of the...
