    Gunsmithing Help finding fancy grade walnut stock for M1A

    Re: Help finding fancy grade walnut stock for M1A +1 on Wenig's. Well made and quite inexpensive, at least before you get to the real exotics. Clint Fowler uses them too.

    larue stealth upper???

    Re: larue stealth upper??? I had an 18" Stealth w/13.2" rail, wonderfully made, and accurate with everything put thru it. Someone had to have it and gave me more than I paid. Just got a DMR-16 that I haven't taken out yet. Based on reports I expect nearly the same accuracy from it...

    Bore Snake use with precision equipment / Rifles

    Re: Bore Snake use with precision equipment / Rifl I don't have a problem with using them in my high round count combat-type auto pistols (only after separating the barrels, allowing for a nice straight pull-thru). But after an experience I had a few years ago I won't use them in any of my...

    .308 doorkicker?

    Re: .308 doorkicker? I'd go one of about 4 ways. First, forget about cheap. Two grand is where it all starts. Without glass. My first choice is a tie between the LMT MRP and the Noveske. Both in 16". Both fantastic. I consider these to be a cut above the SR-25 & AR-10 for a variety of...

    which upper would you get?

    Re: which upper would you get? Both are good. I consider the LaRue line to be in a different catagory tho', a cut above the DD. The LaRue has a better barrel that will normally prove more accurate. Had an 18" Larue Stealth with a 13.2" rail that's beautifully made and accurate (traded to a...

    Need some advice on a M1A

    Re: Need some advice on a M1A Certainly nothing like wood. Depending on the app, sometimes not so practical tho'. Regarding the JAE being easy to remove, I've heard from sources as reputable as they get, that they have experienced difficulty when trying to pull the barreled action from the...

    Ar Build. (Opinions)

    Re: Ar Build. (Opinions) Have you considered a genuine Colt 16" M4? I saw a large well known supplier advertise them for $1099 the other day. They don't break and run forever. Next, I'd get a DD or LaRue rail and a Surefire light. Second, I'd pony up for an LMT SOPMOD stock. (A good sling and...

    Need some advice on a M1A

    Re: Need some advice on a M1A I'm with Dark Horse. I have two full-tilt Smith Enterprise rifles that shoot into 1MOA with most quality 155-175gr. match ammo. One's with a 22" stainless Krieger and the other an 18" SEI medium/heavy. Both are fairly lightweight and mounted in std. USGI...

    Rifle Scopes Need advice on base and ring choice for Nightforce

    Re: Need advice on base and ring choice for Nightf I currently have an array of quality scopes, rings and mounts on my various rifles, including a NF 5.5-22x56 in a set of NF Ultralight rings. Very nicely made and, despite being made of aluminum w/ Ti crossbolts, by all reports, very strong...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce Colors?

    Re: Nightforce Colors? I, too, stopped by the NF booth at SHOT. I specifically wanted to look at the 3.5-15x50 F1 (FFP) in person and ask them about alternative colors. I had OD in mind. The rep I spoke with pointed out the 2 colored scopes they had on display. One was silver and the other...
