    Movie Theater Any comments. Special Forces: World's Toughest Test

    There are plenty of people here who have gone through selection processes that are "at arms oriented". Military, LEO, alphabet or anything I'm leaving out, I would be interested in your opinions. An observation on my part. The physical problems of balance, heights, falling, drowning, etc...

    Great Buy Goretex Surplus Parka

    PSA. About five years ago I retired a Columbia Quad Parka outer shell that I'd been wearing for almost 40 years. Over thirty years of that time we lived on a farm in the PNW. That old quad parka had seen winds to over 100MPH and deluge rainfalls. It had been patched so many times, due mostly...

    K-Bars Questions For The Randall Scholars

    I'm not new to quality knives. As a matter of fact I have way to many to justify. I own customs, bench mades, special order, etc., etc. But, there is an itch I have never scratched. Back in the day, Randalls were highly regarded. I've handled a bunch but never used one enough to...

    Vudoo "Light"

    Has anyone built one? I'm shooting for under 8 1/2 # . I don't think I want a carbon fiber barrel. I'd like the barrel to be 22" to 24". I have a 52C Sporter Browning reintro that comes in at 8#6ozs. With a Vudoo 360 is it possible or am I asking too much?

    Benchrest 101

    The title pretty much says it all. Bonehead freshman Benchrest for a no-nothing student. For example how to set up your rest on the bench? It would seem that it would be best to have the rest dead square to the target board if using a rear bag and a mechanical rest. Or is close good enough...

    LE 6920 Endplate With HK Hook Sling Attach

    Mine is the Magpul. Looking for single point sling endplate for use with HK style hook. I am assuming the 6920 has a milspec carbine buffer tube. In reading reviews I want ease of installation, no interference with the web of trigger hand and no restriction of access to safety. A single hook...

    Need Current Armalite AR-10 Guidance

    I've been mulling over the purchase of a .308 or 6.5CM gas gun. Not an immediate need so I'll wait 'til the current lunacy ends. I have an M-15T with a 24"SS barrel that I bought NIB about ten years ago. It is from the Clinton era. It has very good two stage trigger and is quite accurate...

    Caution if You Vote Absentee

    Make sure your signature hasn't changed. I started voting absentee about forty years ago. After signing stacks of checks for years I realized my signature had morphed. I went to the co. elections office and had them pull the old signature card. Sure enough, there was no resemblance. It...

    T1X rechambered to engrave?

    A few weeks ago, I dug up an older thread https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/should-a-22lr-bullet-be-pushed-into-the-lands.6944766/ . I checked three target rifles from across about ninety years. All engraved at least the front driving band of a Center-X .22 cartridge. I then...

    Next Memorial Day

    Yesterday I had FNC on while going in and out of the house doing chores. I caught a few moments of a show that was a Memorial Day special and it looked interesting but the day wasn't done so I was back at it. I came in late and checked to see if it was rebroadcast and it was so I sat down with...

    NRL .22 Gear Questions and Recommendations

    I've been reading the rules for this and following the COFs for the last couple of months. The two pieces of gear that are mentioned are a bag not bigger than a soccer ball and a sling. I don't know how they figure what is the "size" of a soccer ball. If it is diameter, about 8.65 inches...

    Quad- Parka Help!!

    I was hanging up coats, that were thrown on a chair, and realized that the only thing I may need is a new quad-parka. I still use my old one, which is a Columbia that I purchased in about '82. Yeah, it actually lasted that long. It is still in use but tears from barbed wire have been patched...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns .38 HBWC?

    The recent thread regarding a members first handgun purchase caused me to drag out some revolvers I hadn't fired in years. What I had to shoot was 158gr. SWC that were reloads by a company that sold to LE. It never shot particularly well and hadn't gotten better with age. Back in the day...
