    Question about a loose barrel nut

    Long story short I bought a new Spikes Gen 2 Billet AR-15 upper and a Noveske NSR 15 Keymod Rail and Troy Claymore. The smith at the shop who builds some quality stuff only tourqed the nut to about 30-35 lbs. I advise him Noveske says 60-80 as per that pesky little thing called the instructions...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig Ultra or 938

    I posted this on 1911 forum also. As you can see from my involvement in another thread I am getting rid of my XDS .45 due to its unreliability. So I am looking at either a 3.3 inch Sig Ultra 1911 in . 45 as I have read nothing but stellar results and apparently Sig has solved the reliability...

    Suppressors SWR Specwar 762 for first can?

    I finally decided to go thought the process and buy a can. The host is an Armalite AR-10 SASS in 7.62/308. I have a NF 3.5-15x50 with an Aadland mount, SSA trigger and a few other mods. For those not familiar with this particular AR-10, it comes with an adjustable gas block. It has two...

    308/7.62 Ammo question

    I am about to fire lap / break in a barrel as per Armalite's instructions. I am not getting into the debate of does it work, do it or not. I don't use moly or paste or other compounds, I do the shoot and clean method. So I was discussing with a close friend and we had a talk over a beer. He...

    Recoil Pad Options for PRS Stocks

    Ok I was doing some research on changing out the stock plastic pad that comes with the PRS Stocks as well as using the search function here. I have seen that Zel Custom Manufacturing makes an adapter plate that screws into the existing rear plate that the plastic " recoil " pad attaches to. The...

    Ok so after laughing my rear off at the local gun show because the prices are coming back to normal and hearing some complain how they just spent way more then they should have a month or two ago. I located a NIB just on the shelf AR-10 B Super Sass. $2,900.00. I picked it up, fell in love and...

    Lilja or Criterion 308 barrel

    I would like some advise, I am looking at these three barrels. I am finishing a build and am shooting 168 grain FGMM for the paper and will shoot whatever 147 -180 grain I can find at a good price for fun. This rifle will probably only see bench and prone shooting. Max range would 500 yards + or...

    Open to suggestions

    Ok, I'm kinda in a way right now. I used to have a DPMS LR-308 with the heavy 24" barrel, Mag-Pul PRS, Wilson TTU Single stage 4 pound trigger, awesome gun. I was told that if I ever wanted to go to a L/E scoped rifle course, and use it on my team I had to use a bolt gun as it was the County's...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Cerakote Vs.Springfield Armory's Armor Koate

    I don't know how many of my fellow HIDE brothers check out the 1911 Forum. I asked this question and at current only got one reply. I want to have my S/A Champion Operator refinished. I carry it always and have worn out the original finish, had it duracoated and that did not hold up very well at...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Smith & Wesson 1911 TA E-Series ????

    OK I held one in my hands and really like the way it feels. I know that there is a debate between internal / external extractor and I am not wanting to get into a debate over that as they both have benefits. The only 1911 I have now is S/A Champion Operator that is a off duty carry gun so I want...

    Rainier Arms 20" Select 308 barrel

    Anyone have / had any experience with these barrels. I have been doing research on them and am reading the Select barrels are made by either Black Hole, Shilen and I even read Pac Nor on one site. Depending on which site you go to obviously one must consider the source. I know thier Ultra Match...

    New to Mosin Nagant

    I just obtained a Mosin 91/30 PU Sniper version. Its stamped 1942 and I beleive it was imported by ATI, so I know its not worth any more than what I paid for it. I have read that the matching numbers dont really matter since there is no way of telling if the parts are original even though the...

    I just wanted to give Jay at Sports Optics an adda boy for the transition into a new Night Force NSX 3.5-15 X 50 NP-R2. I had never had the chance to put my hands on one and circumstances allowed me to finally own one. All I can say is WOW.

    Case Foam Replacement Option

    I tried the trace and cut foam thing for my Pelican. Well after I was done, it looked like an angry juced up kindergardner with safety scisors got ahold of it and needed to be replaced. A few years ago I had a Vangurad rifle case with little square foam that you could litterly pluck out and...
