    Induro Tripods

    Does anyone have any trigger time with Induro Tripods? They advertise a much higher maximum weight load than other tripods with the same price point. My thinking is the higher weight load would provide a more stable platform.

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce MOAR & NP-R1 Reticles

    I would greatly appreciate comparison photos of the MOAR and NP-R1 reticles (2nd focal plane). I have read reviews describing the MOAR reticle and subtensions are thicker than the NP-R1 but the provided design photos on the website actually show the NP-R1 reticle thicker than the MOAR. If...

    Tripod Selection

    Seeking advice prior to a department purchase of quality tripods. They need to accommodate a wide range of adjustment (prefer a range of around 10" to 72") while being highly portable (think side sleeve of an Eberlestock G4). Need to handle the dead weight of a fully outfitted tactical rifle...

    Q's For GAP-10 Owners

    What is your favorite length barrel for you GAP-10? I'm finalizing my build options and believe I've narrowed it down to either an 18" or 20" with a Surefire break (extra 2.66"). Most of my shooting will be under 600 yards however throughout the year a venue will be available for 1000+ yard...

    Suppressors NFA Trust Schedule B

    I have to start off by bitching at my SOT. They received paperwork from the ATF over a week ago describing the "corrections" that are needed for my suppressor stamp. Thank God I called because apparently they had "misplaced" my contact information! I found this disturbing since a response is...

    Fieldcraft Urban Hide Material

    I am tasked with reviewing our current inventory and researching new products for our Sierra Team. It has been awhile since I have both been in Battalion and attended a designated MIL/LEO school dedicated to urban hides. I would appreciate any new books, ideas, supplies, etc. on the subject. We...

    Suppressors Funded or Non-Funded Sch. A?

    I need to mail my Trust and other Docs today but due to conflicting information I wanted to confirm the "ATF requirement" for the Schedule A. Preferably, what has been working BEST recently? 1. Should it be funded or not. 2. If it should be funded, does the ATF flag it if a...

    GAP Crusader

    Just curious, I had my barreled action out to have an upgrade done to the stock and noticed the underside of the barrel is marked with what appears to be a "bull" head and the numbers "454". Anyone know what GAP builder these belong to?

    F T/R Competition Q Regarding F-Class Classification

    The local range I shoot F-Class at does not differentiate between "Open" and F/TR. During registration I advised one of the score keepers I was shooting F/TR with a .308 but noticed I (and other F/TR shooters)were lumped together during scoring with competitors shooting 6BR's and other calibers...

    Storm Tactical Data Book Review

    I recently acquired one of Storm Tactical's data books through a trade here on the Hide. Mike from Storm Tactical went above and beyond and provided one of their Cordura outer covers as well. I told Mike I would provide a review after I had some time to look it over and test its functionality...

    Rifle Scopes Mapping a NF

    In the Optics FAQ regarding FFP vs. SFP glass Frank brought up a good point about mapping SFP glass and used a NF MLR as an example. Using a 22x model you can use the .5 mil marks as 1 mil at 11x. I have wanted to perform this with my 5.5-22 NP-R2 (MOA based reticule) and started reviewing my...

    Hornady 155 A-MAX

    I'm ready to drop some jing on the 2011 Hornady group buy and I'm wondering if anyone has had success with working up a load with the 155 A-MAX. My procrastination has struck again being that I won't be able to test a factory load of them before the order cut-off date. Will I be wasting money...

    Rifle Scopes Explanation of Parallax

    I'm wishing to understand the use of this feature as well as the terminology regarding my 5.5-22x50 NXS. My NF manual defines parallax as "the apparent movement of the reticle in relation to the target as the shooter moves his eye across the exit pupil of the riflescope, caused by the target...

    Quick Thanks Goes Out to TVP & Tom Sarver

    Last week Tom took time out of his busy schedule to assist a handful of LEO snipers with a day of long range applications at TVP. It was my second trip to TVP although many of the shooters had never been there, much less shot past 300 yards. Tom quickly and efficiently assisted in establishing...

    Can anyone provide a definative answer to the following: When I sell a firearm via the internet, do I need to hold on to (file) the provided buyer's FFL or does the liability transfer to the the FFL I ship the firearm to? If I do need to file the FFL, how long should it be held? When I sell a...

    Gunsmithing McMillan LOP Spacer System

    Can this system be installed by the "average Joe" or should it be sent off? It appears from their website that it involves simple screws. I would like to add the system to an A5. Any pointers or concerns appreciated, likes or dislikes. Here's what I'm talking about since they sometimes get...

    Man...I'm excited, just purchased my first GAP. I've been looking for one used and had a poster from another forum let me know about one for sale on Gunbroker (of all places). I tried to email the guy some questios but thought for the price I better just pull the trigger. I either just got a...
