    Gunsmithing AR upper and barrel fit

    A friend and I just received our barrels from the smith to install in our MATEN upper monolithic combos (for precision shooting). I have put a few AR-15's together and the barrels always just slid right in by hand. When we went to put these on, they were VERY tight. We eventually got one to...

    308 carbine or 300 Blackout carbine?

    Here are my thoughts, I would appreciate some feedback. I have DPMS AP4 308 carbine I bought a couple years ago to be a "compromise" rifle. The rifle I shoot most is a purpose built LR-308 but it is HEAVY and I don't like to lug it around when out deer hunting etc. So, I bought this rifle...

    Adjustable (length) buttpad for AICS???

    My Googlefu skills are failing me. I am wondering if there is an easilly adjustable LOP buttpad for the AICS. Ideally, I am looking for something like the back end of the Magpul PRS. Does such a thing exist? If so, where can I get one and how much? Thanks.

    Suppressors Pistol under $600, please advise.

    A good friend of mine is wanting to buy a pistol for under $600 and asked me for advice. I repeat, $600 is the very top side of what he can spend. I am partial to Sigs and HKs so I am not well versed in other options and as such not much help. To help you give good advice, here is what I...

    Rifle Scopes Outdoor life scope comparison

Thumbed to the scope comparison / review and started to take a look. A Swarovski won the top pick with four stars and...

    Rifle Scopes NXS compact polarized lenses ??

    Just got one of these and am very happy with it. I do have one question though... They come with flip caps that have plastic polarized lenses. My question is what are they for? I mean I know what the benefits of having polarized lenses are but these (or at least mine) are dark and...

    Mark II BTVS length of pull...

    I really love my BTVS but the LOP is about two inches too short. I am thinking about getting a limbsaver recoil pad to extend the LOP and have a couple questions about that. First, does anyone make an extended butt plate for the Savage MKII BTVS? If not, what size of grind down does it take...

    CAA SRS Sniper Stock opinions?

    I have a DPMS 308 that currently wears a Magpul PRS. I have been looking for the limbsaver backplate and thinking about getting a accushot monopod for the rail. Then I saw the CAA SRS. From the looks of it, the CAA SRS has a better butt pad and the monopod is integral. Plus, by the time I...
