    SOLD More scammers! Very similar name

    My username doesn't have a capital "i" (insectguy), but someone tried to contact a buyer with the account Insectguy. Stay frosty. (btw, it's my other hobby.....)

    Accessories MDT Tac21 Gen 2 Rem SA stock - $500

    Bought this hoping to use it on a Rim-X, but it doesn't fit. Never installed, only taken out of the box to realize my error. (Rim-X has a bolt release on the side of the action, not from in front of the trigger). No buttstock or grip, just as it comes from MDT. $550 shipped. Prefer Venmo.

    SOLD Annealeez - sold

    Annealeez with upgraded wheels. Used twice (I've upgraded to an AMP) -- unit is in perfect condition. This unit has the separate gas bottle (which actually makes it far easier to adjust to the right angle). Gas bottle will not be shipped, but U-bolt/stand will be. Comes with a metal pan...

    Range target holders

    We have a private club, and are replacing our very old targets with something new. The previous targets were static pieces of large steel-- not very challenging, and kind of uninteresting as well. We're thinking of something that moves, like swinging steel targets. There are a lot of...

    recommendations on a truck med kit

    I recently upgraded my old truck to an F-250, and I want to get a better med kit to have around in case I come across a medical emergency (I was a volunteer fire department chief and first responder for a while-- old habits die hard). Has anyone purchased a ready-made kit worth a darn, such as...

    Sako TRG custom magazines

    I'm as frustrated as every other TRG owner with the sky high prices on Sako's sheet metal magazines, but haven't found any replacements available. Until now. I've been in discussions with MH manufacturing, who makes custom magazines for ARs. They've said if they can get 200 Sako magazines...

    Suppressors Anyone have a problem with Kidd barrels? TBAC 22L doesn't fit....

    Since I've had my TBAC 22L-1 (two whole weeks), I've used it on a couple of handguns, and a bolt action H&R M12 rifle. Today I tried to use it on my 10/22 with a Kidd barrel, but had problems. Follow me here: The Kidd barrel (KB) has a thread protector (KTP), and the M12 has a custom-threaded...

    Suppressors Received my Thunderbeast 22L -- very high praise following

    I've tried semi-auto rifles, and semi-auto pistols, and everything is .... well, quiet. All ammo I tried was hearing safe, even stingers, but they were a bit sharp. The CCI target was about 890fps, and the Remington Subsonic was about 820fps. The actual sound differences were insignificant...

    Suppressors Adding a trustee to my trust

    I'm to the point now I want to add a trustee to my trust. My lawyer gave me three forms for the first three people to be added, but in the forms, it states the person will become a trustee once the ATF is made aware of the change. Do we have to submit a change to the trust to the ATF? Do we...

    Benchrest rest

    My neighbor couldn't see paying the $$$ for a benchrest rest, so he made this one. What do you think? He's thinking of offering these for sale for $500. I told him he needed to offer them in football colors, but he's not too keen on those.

    Any regrets going custom?

    I read many threads about how people are just plain giddy about a custom rifle they've had built. But my question is-- has anyone here ever gotten a custom rifle, and then said, "meh."? (i.e., thought the extra $$ for the custom build didn't justify the costs). I now have the opportunity to...

    Suppressors Ultrasonic sinks

    I'm thinking of getting an ultrasonic sink to clean my suppressors-- anyone have a preference? For the few times I would use it during the year, I was considering a Harbor Freight unit. Any experiences?

    Suppressors So, I was at the range today....

    .....and a guy had a YHM on a Ruger MkII. It was very quiet, surprisingly so, so we struck up a conversation. I told him I was probably going to go with a trust this time around when he said something quite astonishing-- "You can loan anyone your can as long as they have a copy of your tax...

    Suppressors Ladder test and suppression

    I have a TRG-22, and am in the process of performing a ladder test and OCW test for load development. Have you, once you've mounted a suppressor, found any change in the results of the tests, such that the end result is different?

    Rifle Scopes Ring height -- different perspective

    I received a set of nightforce ultralight rings on trade. I want to offer them for sale, but I don't know the actual height. How do you determine/measure what the height is on a set of rings? Thanks!

    Jailbreak an iPhone

    I couldn't find a discussion anywhere else, so I thought this was as good a place as any. Has anyone here jailbroken their iPhone? What were the results, and would you do it again? Just thinking about it, and trying to see the benefits versus the drawbacks. I have an iPhone 4. Thanks!

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce export restrictions?

    Have an offer from a user in Russia to purchase my scope (I would only be shipping to NY). I thought Nightforce scopes were restricted from exports by the State Department. Is that correct?

    Maggie’s A modern analogy

    Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100… If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this… The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh would pay...
