    Sidearms & Scatterguns Looking for a knife

    I am looking at dropping the money on a strider MSS. It looks like the exact knife I have been waiting for except the price. Right material (close enough) and the correct blade shape and size. I don't exactly like the handle but the shape is correct and it looks easy enough to change handles...

    Where is the best place to buy Eagle stuff that will be in stock? It seems everyone I call says they are on back order.

    ar-15 velocity

    I picked up some black hills 77gr ammo for my ar-15 with 16" barrel. I was getting velocities of 2495-2500 fps, 20 degrees outside temperature. The factory velocities are estimated at 2750. Do my velocities sound normal? What length barrel were they testing their ammo through?
