I am pretty sure that everything is here. If I appear to be missing something, please let me know. I am going to start purchasing parts in about 3 weeks, and working from the lower and stock and all that upwards. Looking for any criticism or even a simple "yep, everything looks to be accounted...

Since I will be getting a decent tax-return check this year, I was thinking of looking into an AR. I would like something based off the AR-15 platform shooting the 308. This will not be used at any ranges past maybe 400 yards. My main question is: Are there any good rifles based off the AR-15...

Just picked up my new owb holster from a local guy that custom makes kydex holster. I haven't obviously had a ton of time to familiarize myself with it, but it seems pretty damn nice. There is an audible click when it locks down into position, and an audible release. It seems like a far better...

As the title states, I just got my new light today. The instructions for removing the battery compartment were terrible, but the product itself is awesome. This light fits perfectly on the rail and locks down pretty nicely. I was quite surprised at the range it can throw the light as well as the...

I checked around every local place, and online store that I know of. I can get a box of 100 for $33 from the Meijer down the road, and the best deal online I could find was $31 for 100 at cheaperthandirt. Does anyone know of a good website to check for these? Thanks Devin

I am purchasing a S&W M&P40 in 2 weeks, and seeing as it will be primarily used for the range and home defense, I am looking to get a flashlight/laser combo to mount to the front. I saw a NcSTAR AQPFLS laser/flashlight at the local gun store, and thought that it was a pretty good option. Has...

I am trying to make a sensitive home-made wind direction (angle) device to try to take most of the guesswork out of the wind hold value. I drew a semi-circle with 10-degree interval markings, placed a cardboard triangle in a slit in a straw at each end, and fastened the straw with a lubricated...

I will be getting a Smith and Wesson M&P9C soon for carry, and I was wondering what you all thought was the easiest type of holster to draw from. Outside of pants Inside of pants Shoulder-type that places the gun at a little below chest-level Which one is easiest for you to draw from and why?

So, this guy at my work was in the USMC and said something about them training to hit a silhouette target at 1000 yards using IRON SIGHTS! Anyone that is in or was in the USMC able to verify this? I just can't see how it would be possible to even see the target at that distance, let alone get a...

So, I was thinking of making my own wireless observation system for target shooting (seeing groups and holes at several hundreds of yards) and hunting (checking my dad's extra stand). I know that it is pretty difficult to see the holes at even 500 yards with a good spotting scope, and was...

My dad is looking into getting a Remington 70 7mm mag for hunting, and wanted to know what people thought about it. Please skip all the "this is tactical, not hunting" garbage. I tried looking up some reviews, but came up with nothing. Does anyone have any experience with these rifles, or know...

I picked up a savage 11 for the fun of it to feel the action on it, and it was the most amazing thing I have ever felt (with 1 exception of course). Is the action on the Savage 10 as smooth as the 11? If so, that solidifies my thoughts on going with it as my rifle.

Today, I took my TI83+ calculator and programmed in the formulas for range estimation as well as hold-over in mils (mil-dot scope obviously). I was initially going to buy the mil-dot master slide-rule thing, but I thought that it would take too much time to slide the thing around and try to get...

I am almost 100% set on this rifle, but had a few questions about the muzzle first. If anyne owns or has fired one, is there any muzzle flash or anything to be concerned about? It doesn't come with a muzzle brake or flash surpressor, and i was wondering if this would be a necessary addition...

I have been looking online for some extra mags. I heard that there were some 9-rd ones out there, but I can't find them anywhere. Does anyone know where to purchase either 9 or 4-round magazines? Thanks in advance, Devin

I am looking for a good 20MOA canted base for a Savage 10FCP. Can you even get a canted base in 2-piece, or does it have to be a 1-piece rail? What are some of the top manufacturers for these?

I have been looking around for a while at bolt action rifles, primarily for target shooting. After a lot of research, reading reviews, and studying several aspects of long-range shooting, i have finally decided on the most-likely candidates. If anyone has experience with any of the following, I...

I can not find it anywhere whether this scope is ffp or sfp. does anyone know off-hand?

I was looking at a new scope to go on a new Remington 700sps. I came across a Center Point Precision Optics 4-16x40mm Adventure Class scope. It has an illuminated mil-dot reticle and costs $70 and comes with rings and flip covers. It has windage and elevation 1/4 MOA turrets. Has anyone ever...

Hello all. I am relatively new to shooting as a sport. Several years back, I have gone hunting with my father and I am no stranger to shooting a gun. I am looking into getting a rifle for myself for both target shooting as well as hunting within the next few years. I recently came across a...
